Though, the Sikhs are in a dilemma whether to vote for Dr. Manmohan Singh, or Mr. LK Advani, Prime Ministerial candidateds of main contender/political parties Congress and BJP, a section of Sikh intelligentsia is of the view that Dr Manmohan Singhs hands should be strengthened as he has enhanced the pride of Sikhs. Dr. Singh is a man of integrity, eminent economist, gentleman,humble and soft-spoken. None can point out any accusing finger towards him, they say. Dr Manmohan Singh’s contribution for the development of Punjab can not be ignored. The facts given hereunder speak themselves:-
Beside releasing liberal funds for strengthening the infrastructure at Amritsar Airport, a new International Airport has been sanctioned for Punjab at Mohali-Chandigarh.
Two Central Universities(at Amritsar and Bathinda) and one IIT at Ropar have been allocated to Punjab.
Guru Gobind Singh Marg has been sanctioned from Talwandi Sabo in Punjab to Nanded (Maharashtra)passing through five other states. Adequate funds were allocated for the development of Anandpur Sahib( Rs 147 crores)and Talwandi Sabo(Rs 132 crores) in view of 300 years of Gurta Gaddi Divas in 2008. Rs 1400 crores were spent for the development and beautification of Nanded. An airport named after Guru Gobind Singh Ji has also been established at Nanded, Special funds were allocated for development and beautification of Amritsar under JL Nehru Urban Renewal Programme. A special grant of Rs 100 crores was given to Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhian in 2007 for research work. An Institute for studay/research of holy Guru Granth Sahib is being established at Guru Nanak Dev University,Amritsar.
First time in the history of India, Governors of 8 important states are Punjabis(Surjit Singh Barnala, General JJ Singh, SS Sidhu, Bhupinder Singh Andeman Nicobar, RL Bhatia, Balram Jakhar, NN Vohra, Gurbachan Jagat, Tejinder Khanna). Four Ministers ( Dr. MS Gill, Ambika Soni, Ashwini Kumar, Pawan Bansal) in the central cabinet are from Punjab.
Montek Singh Ahluwalia is Deputy Chaiman of Yojna Board. Navtej Singh Sarna is Spokesperson of External Affairs Ministry, while Hardip Singh Puri is Indian Representative in UNO.By honouring Bhai Nirmal Singh Kha lsa, a Hazoori Raagi of Sri Harmander Sahib with Padma Shree award/title, the Gurmat Sangeet and Raagi community have been honoured for the first time by the Govt. of India
On the other hand, during its 6 years rule, the BJP Government led by Mr. AB Vajpayee did nothing for Punjab. The Akali Dal supreme S. Parkash Singh Badal raised only one demand, a berth dor his son Sdukhbir Singh Badal in the Central Ministry, which was met. Vajpayee governmet sanctioned a sum of Rs 100 crores for observing 3ooth Year of Ordaining of Khalsa Panth, but only Rs 50 crores were given to Punjab government, other Rs 50 crores were given to Rashtria Sikh sangat to creat confusion about Sikh philosophy and traditions. Sikhs have demanding that marriages of their children should be registration under Anand Marriage Act, and legislation of separate Code Bill for Sikhs, whereas the BJP election manifesto stands for Hindutava and Common Code Bill for all Indians irrespective of religion/dharma.

In this thought provoking article, though Mr Bhawar has painstakingly at length described how Manmohan Singh Governmemnt did things for Punjab and BJP govbernment failed to do so. It is really painfulto know that a wise man like him still thinks only in terms of Punjab while analysing the Prime Ministerial candidates. I have further been disturbed by the fact that he gaudges the success of the Manmohan Government by seeing as to how many Punjabis are the governors and are on the top posts.
He should atleast check the list of the prominent Punjabis mentioned by him as to how all of them have been on respectable posts for past many years.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh should be judged for his qualities as an outstanding economist and how he has taken up the issues related to the security and the economic stability of the country.
Its high time we come out of the match boxes where we were stuffed by the Britishers.

i am not familiar with your politics or how your government is faring on its program.
i just wish that whoever wins in the election is someone who has the mandate of the people, and who will serve its constituent with integrity and honesty.
Though as a person Manmohan Is Sobre and well qualified Person.But there is very less space for Right Persons in Politics????
He should have Chosen to Contest Parliament election.
The last Two Limping Govts on Support System done Nothing for Common Men due to their Please all Situation.
There should be two or three Party System.

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also [url=http://twitter.com/jetlyca]q Buy Viagra Online[/url] you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://viagra.olistupa.ru]Viagra Super Active[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
