Questions Venkaiah Naidu did not answer

Virender (Fri Mar 27 1998 7:39 IST)
Mr Naidu we feel that your alliance with the Shiromani Akali Dal is an opportunistic. Two reason: One, you opposed the Anandpur resolution from which SAD has not gone back. Two, you have given a ministerial berth to the chief minister's son which shows the kind of quid pro quo politics you play. Your reaction.


PNA (Fri Mar 27 1998 7:58 IST)
Welcome.Mr.Naidu.


PNA (Fri Mar 27 1998 7:59 IST)
Mr.naidu>> Why is the BJP tying the knot with chors like sukhram, jayalalitha...


Radhika (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:0 IST)
Mr Naidu: What are the priorities on the BJP agenda?


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:1 IST)
Mr Naidu, Have you not Succumbed to AI(DHUMKE)!!


guru (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:3 IST)
Dear Mr. Naidu, Why this unethical tieup with sukhram; Wasn't Jayalalitha/Swamy combine enough for the BJP? & Do you think you still have the requisite numbers for tomorrows vote in the Lok Sabha?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:4 IST)
Mr. Naidu : Congrats on the BJP forming the govt. Has Sri Vajpayee proved his majority?


PNA (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:4 IST)
Mr.Naidu>> Do you have an answer to the questions reg. BJP election tie-ups ???


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:7 IST)
Shyama : WHy are you asking questions about his religion, caste, etc.. ?????? ASk something pertinent!


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:8 IST)
ScamIam : The whole country awaited Vajpayee! ( let me remind you that! :) )


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:8 IST)
Shyama, Lets remain Indians, NoCaste, all Indians are one and teh same.!!! Our motto "ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE"


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:9 IST)
Mr Naidu : What are BJP's plans as far as tackling Pakistan goes? What are the signals you are trying to give Pakistan to solve this Kashmir problem bilaterally?


Ravi (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:10 IST)
Sir, I am writing this from Wi, USA. Good Evening.


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:10 IST)
Ravi : Bhaagunaara? :) Wisconsin elaa undhee?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:11 IST)
Ravi : Bhaagunaara? :) Wisconsin elaa undhee?


guru (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:11 IST)
Mr. Naidu> Will the BJP go ahead with the dissolution of the TamilNadu Govt and hold early elections in AP because coalition partners force it to do so?


Rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:11 IST)
Shri Naidu: I am amazed that you guys have any vestige of shame left. In your greed for power, what haven't you done?!! And yet you call yourself a party with a difference. Snort!


Sai (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:11 IST)
Will this govt. be able to continue/improve the economic reforms the previous governments have been doing? Or are you going to be working on builing temples?


Ravi (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:11 IST)
Mr Venkaiah Naidu, I have been watching the Andhra Govt. stand on S/W focus. It has been very good. Don't you agree that Chandrababu Naidu is doing a good job atleast in this regard?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:12 IST)
Mr. Naidu : There has been enough said about the Congress. But you should still remember that it was the congress who took India on the path of economic liberalization.


DADA (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:13 IST)
HI


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:14 IST)
Oops! I forgot to intro myself.. Hello all.. I'm Vijay from Atlanta, GA - Dr. Martin luther king's city! the Olympic city!


Shyama (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:15 IST)
Mr Naidu: What are the BJP's plans for AP? Are you planning to join up with the TDP for the assembly election? And, do you think it was fair to dump Mrs NTR the way you did?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:16 IST)
Mr. Mohan : I tend to differ from your views. The Majority feel that constructing a Ram temple is not as important as giving education to people and providing them with jobs. Lord Ram is not going to give anybody education or the food... it is the government which has to provide all that... they can't be fooling around building temples...


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:16 IST)
Honestly, Mr Naidu this govt is a sitting duck, Sukhram to Jaya Lalitha will black mail you day in day out, already BJP is singing JAYA HO JAYA JAYA Ho. What do you think ( I cant believe Vajpayee is reduced To His masters Voice) Bad days have fallen Indian Empire!!!


Mohan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:18 IST)
So, BJP was support to be cadre based party which was supoposed to explode the myth of Pseudo Secularism that other parties practice ? And Ram Mandir was a Symbolism of it.


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:18 IST)
ScamIam : ha! ha! its not that bad... but I don't think BJP had a choice there... may be in the next elections they might get a majority if they govern well this time..


Sai (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:19 IST)
Mr Naidu, Sorry to repeat the question again.......... Will this govt. be able to continue/improve the economic reforms the previous governments have been doing? Or are you going to be working on builing temples?


Mohan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:19 IST)
Venkaiah Nadiu Garu , Na Prasnaniki Uttaram Istara ? [ I had asked 5 questions ]


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:19 IST)
Is it True Mr Naidu That BJP is noe reduced to LOTUS EATERS?


Ravi (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:20 IST)
Venkaiah Naiduji: I am a strong supporter of BJP and Hindutva. I also have pride in our culture and tradition. I have seen some temples and read about some others and found that they are not only architectural wonders but are also astronomical wonders like the Vidyasankar temple in Sringeri. Does the BJP have any plans to see that we do not lose these talents or knowledge (Iam sure there are people in our country with such knowledge) by blindly following so called "western sciences".


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:20 IST)
Mohangaaru : Please talk in english. Otherwise other people cannot understand! :) thanks.


Mohan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:20 IST)
I just wanted hi to answer my questions Nothing else


Rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:21 IST)
As an MP elected from Karnataka, kindly let us have your views on the Almatti Dam. Do you think it should be raised?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:23 IST)
Mr. Mohan : I think you have made Mr. Naidu think... he hasn't responded in quite a while! :)


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:23 IST)
Naidu Garu, AI DHUMKE has proved Indians are better leaders than western born leaders, It took Jaya just rpeat Just 27 MPs to remote control, what Congress did to UF with 140 odd MPs. Indians are great are what?


SRINI (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:24 IST)
Talking about hindutva, I hope BJP would clean up the corruption that has become part of Indian life! I hope BJP implements good things of Hindutva, educate the newer generation, create awareness amongst the average citizens, develop the infrastructure etc... Hope BJP makes Indians proud of their heritage.


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:24 IST)
ScamIam : more than Jaya, it is now Shri Ch. Babu who is in the kingmaker's chair. :)


NoIDo (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:25 IST)
Hi Doo


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:25 IST)
A request to all : Let us wait for Mr. Naidu to answer and not flood him with too many questions to answer! :)


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:28 IST)
Mr. Naidu : that was a good answer..


PNA (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:28 IST)
Mr.Naidu>> I read your answer reg. Sukhram tie-up. Does that answer hold true even for the tie-up with Jayalalitha...


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:28 IST)
Mr Naidu do you think a honest man like me will find a cabinet post. (Hey guys dont laugh, At least I decalared my self as SCAM I AM)


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:29 IST)
Kalyan they are still debating ( still here means remaining same no MOTION)


nadini rao (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:31 IST)
Mr Naidu: Being a fellow Kamma, are you happy that Chandrababu Naidu is now in the same camp? But do you think your alliance -- if it is forged -- will be strong enough to counter the Reddys?


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:31 IST)
Mr. Naidu : Thanks for your answer. I think you are right. Mr. Advani is a forthright person. He was to have won the Magsaysay award for his work in politics except for the Rath Yathra thing. But him being a sindhi, who came over to India during the partition. I think he understands the border situation very well. Can't think of a better person to be the home minister and work with Pakistan to ensure peace at the border.


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:33 IST)
Nadini Rao : Please do not bring caste into this session!


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:34 IST)
Guys here is an excellent quote "Politics is an excellent Career, untill you get caught" (note in India it does not matter, example Jaya, Sukhram et al.


dhruvk (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:34 IST)
Mr.Naidu. What are the primary goals of the present coalition?? Do you think a day will come when all the children in India can read and write their name through compulsory education just as the European countires???


dhruvk (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:36 IST)
Ofcourse my congratulations to you and your party and good luck for to-morrow. Hope you hav 285


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:36 IST)
ScamIam : *laugh* :) cool... hey... "Politics can make strange bedfellows!" .... in 2 years for all you might know, it might be BJP + Congress who are governing India again!


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:38 IST)
Man CASTE is THE CRUX Of the problem. even educated illiterate fall for this, Father let my country awake (even NRIs)


nadini rao (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:39 IST)
Mr Naidu: Being a fellow Telugu, I fail to understand why your party wants to team up with TDP. He is going to lose the assembly election, due next year.


Vijay (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:40 IST)
Vijay : Mr. Naidu , let me congratulate you in advance for securing the required votes to win the simple majority. Hope the central government can do some good work and restore people's confidence in the largest parliamentary democracy in the world! Jai Hind!


ravi (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:46 IST)
I would like to know your opinion about the fracas caused by memebers of the opposition on the matter of a "partisan" delegation being sent to West Bengal 7 orissa. This is such a shame to drag partisan politics in natural calamities at this time. What are these stupid politicians shouting about ? the goal shoul dbe to ease the suffering irrespcetive of who goes on these delegantions. Your opinion ..


Kalyan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:47 IST)
As a follow-u[ to my previous question (which you havent got a chance to answer yet) , now that Home Minister has taken control of CBI, will he take action against Amma and her corruption charges or will he just drop charges under some pretext?


rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:48 IST)
Naidu garu, namaskaram. As a BJP supporter, I have been trated like a social leper in my peer group - "how can an educated person support Hindutva? How can a career woman support those that live in the dark ages?" what do you have to say to them? why is the BJP so "untouchable?


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:48 IST)
Thank you Naidu garu, for a eloquent answer. But do you honestly think it can be done (I believe in your sincerety) but the Babus ( no pun, the officals) have to wake up,do you think you can shape them into action?


dhruvk (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:49 IST)
With every calamity that befalls the nation, the whole indian community abroad along with the diaspora has been ready to help but then there have always been hurdles. Why and how do you intend to rectify this???


Venkat (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:49 IST)


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:50 IST)
rama garu GARV se Khau hum Hindu hai, the most tolerent religion in the world...


Kalyan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:53 IST)
Where does BJP draw the line between what is "CONSENSUS" and what is "COMPROMISE" ??


dhruvk (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:53 IST)
How are u people going to clean the muck of babugiri and the weight on document culture???


Mohan (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:55 IST)
Naidu Garu, This is Mohan again. Do you think that BJP would now tilt towards Tamil nadu on the Cauvery Issue ( because of Jayalalitha ) and hecne doing tremendous Injustice to karnataka Even from a Political Angle, in future, karnataka is a safe bet for BJP as they can win there rather than helping Jayalallitha to win Please clarify


rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:56 IST)
scam Iam, hum garv se kehna chate hain. par jara madad BJP se bhi to chahiye. Mr. Naidu, why non response?


ravi (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:56 IST)
For those of you who don't know and wish to watch the Confidence motion , it is available from http://www.ddindia.net on Real Video, the Doordarshan web site. Not bad at all for DD.


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:57 IST)
rama garu Sushma can only do symbolic things, It takes courage and conviction ( not the criminal conviction) to make lasting and equitable changes to the system..


Das (Fri Mar 27 1998 8:58 IST)
Mr. Naidu, there have been reports that, though on paper BJP has not made any deal with Jayalalitha to scrap the court cases against her, in reality that's exactly what's been agreed upon. From past experience with countless scams, this seems all the more likely since public memory is incredibly short. egs are Sukhram, Kalpanath Rai, Jayalalitha etc who were voted back to power! Don't you think that this is just continuing the legacy of all the previous govts albeit in a new name?


rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:0 IST)
Scamiam, why don't you prevail on naidu garu to answer ? it would be nice to hear from him. I think he's ducking the tough questions.


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:6 IST)
Rama I completely agree, BJP has no business worrying about Hindu culture, The have to uplift the poor, destroy the ignorance and illetracy, " ITS ECONOMY and in INDIA EQUITY Stupid" is universally true, kick the babus butt(the officials and get work done).


rama (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:8 IST)
Sri George Fernandes on Star Plus (prannoy's program) definitely said that coke etc can go to hell if he had his way. What are you going to do about the -2% growth in agriculture? And how come the BJP's economic agenda is quite different from the prescriptions of the world community? believe me I am not a fan of Chidambaramonomics. But it seemed to have a stronger base of logic and qualification. Which bureaucrats are you talking of anyway who are acknowledged in the world as good economists? would a rangarajan or Amartya Sen work with the BJP?


ScamIam (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:9 IST)
Naidu garu You cannot dictate MNCs where to invest, you nudge them by creating returns and stability. Then there will be MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF THE MNCs, any thoughts?


Mohammad (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:9 IST)
Mr. Naidu. how are you? Can you justify the including of George Fernandes as a minister. I hope you still remember him as a convict in Baroda dynamite case and he spent several years in prison also.


Mohammad (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:10 IST)
any feed back Naidu?


Das (Fri Mar 27 1998 9:11 IST)
Mr. Naidu, Sushma Swaraj in her previous 13-day stint in the I&B ministry did another interesting thing, other than the dress code. She ordered that all family planning / contraceptive adverts to be moved to late night (past 11pm?) slots on DD. Now, Mr. Naidu, who do we want to target during the advert? Isn't it the illeterate rural citizen who should be convinced about family planning and the ways to go about it? Shouldn't they be convinced about the dangers of population explosion? Won't moving it to a late slot decrease not only this but all target groups compared to the prime time slots? How can a minister who realises what population is causing to India take such a narrow-minded approach (she said that children ask the most "embarrassing" questions because of the advert.!) instead of increasing the various methods by which the idea of family planning is spread & implemented ? What is your response?
