Sir,
Give up LPG subsidy dear MPs, MLAs, Ministers and bureaucrats.
Day in and day out , a number of messages are being received by the customers of HP, IOC, BP etc. to join the “Give it up movement” i.e.to give up LPG subsidy. According to them giving up LPG subsidy means gifting green cooking fuel to a deprived household. It means that they are asking the common man of India to give up their share of subsidy on gas cylinders used by them in their homes and help in nation building. I would definitely give up my subsidy if every MP, MLA , minister , corporate ,bureaucrat and the like minded people could also waive off his/her gas subsidy. A white paper signed by the ministers must be published in the leading newspapers just as the advertisements of the PM schemes are being published in the newspapers daily so that the common masses can know the fact if these ministers have really given up their LPG subsidy . By doing this , you would be setting an example to the citizens of India. Recently a news was being flashed on national television that all the MP’S of ruling as well as the opposition parties are joining hands to double their pay . From where this money will come to double their pay? Although the members of the ruling party and the opposition party are always bitterly fighting against each other over petty issues but when it comes to their personal benefit , they join hands with each other by forgetting the interest of the common man on whose tax they are enjoying all liberties like telephone bills , electricity bills, free accommodation in luxury bungalows , avail free travel on public transportation , foreign tours along with their family members etc.
Moreover, even for a minor headache or injury , they get admitted to luxury hospitals and especially when a probe is launched against them . Furthermore, it is , the citizens of India who pay fare for them to travel AC railway coaches and fly first class in planes. Also when shall you pay the full cost of a meal in the parliamentary canteen where you are getting subsidy on meals as well and that to without passing the bill to your country men?
We , the people of India who dutifully pay Income tax , GST , VAT, property tax, ART , corporation tax and many more taxes which goes up to nearly 40% of our hard earned money while MPs, MLAs and ministers enjoy the benefit of these taxes.
Yours etc….
