Not a single DMK MP opposed price revision in Parliament”
The United Progressive Alliance government not only failed to control the rise in prices of essential commodities but also institutionalised corruption throughout the country, said Communist Party of India (Marxist) general secretary Prakash Karat.
Addressing an election meeting at Kuzuthurai on Tuesday, he said the main issue in the coming Assembly election was the misrule of the Congress at the Centre and the Dravida Munnetra Kazagham in the State. Owing to massive corruption, people were put to untold hardship. Since the last Lok Sabha election in 2009, the country was witnessing a rise in prices of all food items. The price of petrol increased seven times since June 2010.
Though the DMK was a coalition partner in the UPA government not even a single MP from the DMK ever opposed the price revision in Parliament.
Now the Central government had decided to de-regulate the price of diesel after the election. It would indirectly pave the way for an increase in prices of essential commodities and other items. People were fed up with the anti-people policies of both the Centre and the State government. Hence, he appealed to the electorates to teach a lesson to the DMK and its allies.
He said all government policies would further enrich the rich and big companies. The government should stop forward trading in futures. There was no shortage of foodgrains in the country.
The CBI knew who were involved in the 2G scam and where the entire money had gone.
They were not ready to divulge the names of very important persons belonging to Tamil Nadu. The Congress was also aware of the names of persons involved in the scam. Both the parties knew the art of making money and the 2G spectrum scam was the worst form of systematic corruption of one family in the last five years. To revive democratic rule both at the Centre and in the State, Mr. Karat appealed to the electorates to cast their votes in favour of the AIADMK and its allies.
