I am overwhelmed by the response made by Hassan Iqbal in Cool Bihari Group. I expect many more to follow Hassan very soon. "..............I am planning to start a man power development institute in Patna for IT industry as my full time career goal and then from there onwards start IT companies and promote IT in state. I am dreaming of making Bihar the largest exporter of software products and service from India. We have talent working elsewhere, let us bring them to Bihar. In the same vein we can start lots of Colleges in state that offer professional programs for which our kids go to Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai etc. This will check the flow of money outside the state as well as create lots of jobs in education sector. I am working on that. Let us do it. We can sure do it together. Please see my blog site as part of my beginning in this direction: http://biharinfotech-hassan.blogspot.com";<http://biharinfotech-hassan.blogspot.com/>
I am sure in next 5 years Bihar will become heaven if we have 100 Hassan Iqbals. This is what is meant by a positive and creative approach. Ideas for a Leap Forward for Bihar need to be concretised soon. The contents of the aforesaid msg should be an eye opener for everybody from Bihar. This is the way out, not accusing Raj Thakrey or running around in a circle trying to catch our own tails or getting into the trap of those of our own leaders who have no dreams, no vision except strong love for the votes and lust for Power. I consider Kosi Floods and Raj Thakrey and his MNS a blessing in disguise for Biharis which has provided us with a timely opportunity to re-build Bihar - a modern Bihar where its sons and daughters can lead a respectable life not that of a slave or alms seekers. I earnestly request members to kindly respond on the points suggested by me in my earlier mail by including a new approach or even a negative comment. No hard feelings this side. vns ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dr.V.N. Sharma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2008/11/2 Subject: Approaching the US for Raj Thakrey- Wrong Action To: Dear All, The msg "NRI group asks US to put MNS on terror watch list posted in Bihar-Network Group" can be read in http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Bihar-Network/message/342 My Response: In my considered opinion this action of requesting the US Govt to declare Raj Thakrey a Terrorist by the NRIs/ NRBs is completely wrong and a misplaced priority. The issue has to be settled by us and within our framework. It is only to be deplored. I am also afraid that in the Indian Legal Framework it can be an Anti- National Act. 1. Pl. remember that the US has not settled the issues anywhere. It only acted like a Monkey and the Two fighting cats story and returned from everywhere with a bloody face. Just look where it is today. 2. My humble suggestion is to raise the economic, social and cultural level of Bihar to a level which surpasses every other Unit/ State in India. For this we have to put our heads together, think in a positive way how to create wealth and Job opportunities in the State. 3. Pl. remember that Biharis are mostly employment oriented not entrepreneurship type. The elites in the Bihar Groups must work on a honest strategy to set up (a) small industries,(b) soil testing labs in each district, (c) Food processing industries, (d) set up or Transfer Head or Branch offices in Patna and elsewhere, (e) Institutions for Professional and Vocational courses. 4. Academic sessions in Existing Educational Systems (Univesities) must be corrected to make it July -May. This will be an indicator of our sensitivity towards a disciplined behaviour. Pl. note that once the sessions got derailed in 1966-67 nothing could be done to correct the sessions. 5. Fix a five year Plan to achieve these objectives and you will see a reverse journey of Marathis from Maharashtra to Bihar seeking Jobs. 6. I also suggest that some resourceful person must work out how to stop Money flow from States to Mumbai. -- Dr.V.N.Sharma http://canvas.nowpos.com/vnsharma
