You must have read today's TOI article on how Rs.31,500 crores of Wheat and Rice have been siphoned out from the distribution system and sold in the black market in the last 3 years !
We need to put this into perspective. 31,500 is a LOT of money. In any terms....even gold and diamonds. But divide the amount by the per kg. price of wheat and rice and the result is mind boggling !!!
We are talking of poor people in a few millions being deprived of a basic square meal.If your interested in the math, its 18.6 million families of 4 being fed !!! Does greed now know no bounds ? That our "people in the system" now have stooped to robbing from the poor. Is a few crores here and there per person not enough ? If short-changing us the tax payers with shoddy roads and infrastructure was not bad enough....you have stooped so low to rob food from the mouths of the poor ?
How do you people sleep at night ?
What is next ?......Stand at railway and bus stops and snatch candy and treats from little kids ?
