Rahul Gandhi's ways of Understanding the Problems
By:- Dr. R.B. Thohe Pou *
Rahul Gandhi - a dynamic and promising Indian leader is on the right move to understand the root cause of the problem in India, which is snubbed by many politicians, civil service officers, army officers and many other leaders.
One needs to appreciate and adopt his ideology of understanding the problem to solve the problem from the root. Rahul Gandhi's ways of understanding the problems can solved any kinds of problem in this world; no problem in this world is too difficult to solve with understanding - whether Dalits, Naxalites, Insurgent or any other problems.
We know that even a small problem become a critical problem when we try to solve the problem superficially without understanding the root cause of the problem. Trying to remove the problem superficially is only like trimming the branches without removing from the root of the tree.
Recently the UP Congress leaders are following Rahul Gandhi's ways of understanding the problem; the districts units of the congress have organized community lunches and held conventions on 2nd October - Mahatma Gandhi's birth Anniversary; to understand the problems of the Dalits and make them aware of the central welfare schemes launched for them.
Rahul Gandhi stayed in Bundelkhand and Amethi to study and familiar himself about the problems. He also stayed in the home of a Dalit in Shravasti district and interacted with the people in the district to assess the problem and to have better understanding the problem at the grass root level. (DC)
P.B. Salim, an IAS officer is another exceptional officer in India who is trying to understand the problem of the tribal people in India. He stayed in ten tribal settlements in Lalgarh (WB), eating and dancing with them and even sleeping in their thatched huts. He said that the best way to defeat Maoist is by bringing development to tribal region. (ENS)
We have the long pending problem of J&K but only a few politicians try to understand the root cause and problem. We also have the northeastern insurgent problems but for the last few decades, the central government is trying to solve the problem only superficially; sitting in Delhi without understanding the root cause of the problem cannot remove the problem from the root.
Today we have another great problem coming up from the Naxalites but the central government is not considering seriously in untangling the problem last one decade and now the problem is gradually blooming with beautiful flowers.
Is it necessary to strike the problem with the might of the Indian army or with the state police personnel forces? Can't we go Rahul Gandhi's ways of understanding the problem to solve amicably?
The more we come to interact and deliberate with the people, the more we understand better the problem and we can solve the problem from the root.
Rahul Gandhi's way of understanding the problem will have a great impact in every problem and every concern authority - may be in the central government, state or block level may need to adopt his ways of understanding and try to solve the problem from the root.
Solving the problem superficially will never end the problem and it will continue to exist and develop further unless the problem is removed from the root.
