AGARTALA, Aug 17 (TIWN): Anti-National CPI-M Chief Minister Manik Sarkar never spare any public platform to hurl abuses to Prime Minister or Union Govt. Doordarshan’s outright rejection of Manik’s speech is a sign that these cheap politicians yet to learn respecting National Independence Day. I-Day speeches of some chief ministers in India have once again proven that development can not be brought if state-centre debates are not ended. Although it was expected, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee would surely do some mess on independence day, but breaking the record, the Chief Minister of Tripura Manik Sarkar finally polluted the day with CPI-M's political gains although the mastermind was Sitaram Yechury.

The Chief Minister of Tripura did not end by giving lectures against Go-Raksha, Hindutva but after a news channel allegedly denied to broadcast his speech CPI-M's mouthpiece Bengali Newspaper reporters managed a stage where the CM talked in English to make it an national issue. 

It's fully upto the channel whereas they would find it suitable to publish or not but the Chief Minister's arrogance was more than expectation. Sitaram Yechury used his social media to popularize Manik Sarkar on the Independence Day.  Question also raised, how a channel can be brought under allegations by a political party like this ?

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's speech was more political. On the 71st Independence Day, he said nationalism does not mean hatred towards others’ religion, language or “other” nations. 

Beginning his speech on an emotional note by mentioning the deaths of children at a state-run hospital in Uttar Pradesh, Vijayan said though Independence Day is an occasion to celebrate, “who could be happy when children have died without getting oxygen?” Vijayan also referred to former Vice President Hamid Ansari’s remark about “growing concerns and anxieties among minorities”. He said Ansari’s statement was an “eye-opener” and it was unfortunate that even those holding responsible posts criticised him for this, he said. However, both Tripura CM and the Kerala CM didn't mention about Triple Talak issue that is the sensitive issue of the country.

The Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government locked horns with the Centre over how to celebrate Independence Day on August 15 in schools across the state.The state government instructed schools to ignore a directive issued earlier by the human resources development ministry asking education institutions to follow a centre- prescribed format for I-D celebration.The state government took the stand amid the ongoing controversy over BJP-led Uttar Pradesh government making it compulsory for Madrasa students to sing the national song “VandeMataram” on I-day.

Eventhough Tripura enjoying subsidy, but Tripura CM said the centre should know every state's developmental agendas are different. Not only with independence day speech but the fighting are visible in  every places, signifying the need of a common govt across the state whatever it is like US and other developed countries.

Key Note is that the Central Govt is taking best policies of the world. From Jandhan Yojna to GST all are for good. Atleast Central Govt's intensions are for bring developments. But unfortunately in other countries such policies could bring faster development but due to over political democracy in India nothing goes right. That's why US like countries are developed where Court and Govt are the last words and cops are highly feared. In India people can throw stones, but cops can carry the armour in hands. In India CMs never consider PM as their executive / head if both parties are from different political backgrounds. Time has come India can take steps for 'Common Election' and 'Same Govt' at State and Centre.
