Some equations are wrong here boss...Allwyn which was running fine has been closed, all 3 units, MACE has been shut down giving way to ARM...State Govt. units It's the SCAMS Raj going on.... there in nothing against SEZs, u can also have an export processing zone for our Nellore or Nizamabad rice, Nuzvid mangoes. Do you know that our YOGA is the best to keep fit as per WHO guidelines. But it's difficult to understand what we are going thru...We fight for RTI, but our women are asked to go and stand in the front and fight for Prohibition, our child eeds to attend interview thrice for an LKG seat but to become a PM or CM or President, the only qualification is how big a Rowdy sheeter you are, how loyal you are to the Nehru clad......Even Phoolan Devi can become a MLA / MP... We can get first class treatmnet in jails (Charles Shobaraj and many others) but out side public are dying because of famine....Most of the industrial land allotted by APIIC and APSFC etc. is a big golmal.

This is the true joy of life. The being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. The being a force of nature instead of a feverish and selfish clod of ailments and grieving senses complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and that as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die. For the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got to hold up for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. -George Bernard Shaw
