THE STORY IS THAT BENGAL IS THE BIGGEST OR ONE OF THE BIGGEST PRODUCER OF POTATO IN OUR COUNTRY.
BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE A MISCONCEPTION THAT IT CAN BE RULED LIKE A COUNTRY.THE FACT IS EVEN IF THE GOVERNMENT IN THE COUNTRY IS OF FEDERAL NATURE,SOMETIMES,GOVT. OF DIFFERENT STATES TREAT THEIR PARTY'S RULED STATE AS A COUNTRY,THROUGH,REGULATIONS AND OTHER ACTIONS TO SUIT THEIR PERSONAL TASTES ONLY.
THE RECENT ABNORMAL RISE IN RATES OF THIS ......POTATO IN THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS IN BENGAL( BIGGEST PRODUCER OF POTATO ) ,BOUGHT A SHARP REACTION IN THE GOVT.
IT TOOK A STEP TO BAN MOVEMENT OF THIS POTATO TO OTHER STATES.TECHNICALLY,IT DID NOT PREVENTED MOVEMENT OF THIS VEGETABLE.BUT IT PUT SEVERAL CONDITIONS 4 A CONSIGNOR TO TAKE BEFORE ACTUAL SHIPMENT.
CAN ONE IMAGINE,IT PUT A REQUIREMENT OF A WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM STATE HEAD QUARTERS 7 DAY IN ADVANCE.OTHER WISE,ANY SHIPMENT BE SEIZED AND SOLD AT GOVT.CONTROLLED RATES, WITHOUT ANY FURTHER REMEDIES TO THEM .
CAN ANY ONE,A COMMON MAN,GET A FILE MOVED FROM A TABLE OF A GOVT OFFICER TO ANOTHER TABLE WITHIN 7 DAYS ,EVEN IF THE REQUIRED TABLE IN SAME BLDG OR SAME FLOOR.ONLY THOSE WHO CAN PAY BY CORRUPT MEANS OR HAVE LINK UP FROM THE TOP TO BOTTOM CAN ACHIEVE THIS HERCULEAN WORK IN MODERN DAYS.
THE RESULT WAS SELF EXPLANATORY BUT THE GOVT. FAILED TO UNDERSTAND.THE PRICE OF POTATO REMAINED MORE OR LESS THE SAME BUT THE QUALITY OF IT VANISHED FROM THE LOCAL MARKETS IN BENGAL.IT'S ANOTHER THING THAT THE RATES OF POTATO GRADUALLY TOOK A DOWNTREND.BUT AT WHAT COST ?
A TIT FOR TAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IF OTHER STATES ADJOINING BENGAL DID THE SAME 4 MOVEMENT OF CERTAIN MATERIALS.
WHAT WILL ONE DO,IF JHARKHAND BAN OR REGULATE SUPPLIES OF IRON ORE AND RELATED MATERIALS FROM THEIR TERRITORY.
THERE WAS A THREAT OF REGULATION OF SUPPLIES FROM ORISSA BUT BENGAL GOVT.RELENTED TO IT'S REQUEST AND A REGULATED SUPPLY SYSTEM WAS ENFORCED.BUT WHAT OF NORTH EAST AND ASSAM ?
THESE STATES WERE LEFT TO FEND THEMSELVES AND THE MINISTERS THERE JUST FAILED TO EVEN LODGE A DISSENT.
REGULATION OF POTATO MOVEMENT WHICH GOVT. RESORTED TO ,WAS NOTHING BUT A POPULIST KNEE JERK ACTIONS AND EVEN THERE IT FAILED TO GET THE DESIRED RESULTS.
WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE DONE ,WAS TO ,REGULATE A CERTAIN MAXIMUM QUANTITY OF POTATO 4 SHIPMENT TO ALL HER ADJOINING STATES ON A SINGLE DATE WITHOUT ANY RESTRICTIONS.
ANY EXCESS OF THAT STIPULATED QUANTITY SHOULD HAVE BEEN STOPPED.
THAT COULD HAVE BOUGHT DESIRED RESULTS FOR THE GOVT.
THERE IS SOMETHING VERY WRONG IN DECIDING SUCH GUIDELINES FOR TRADE BETWEEN STATES NEIGHBORING EACH OTHER.
AND WE WISH TO EXPORT GOODS TO ALL OVER THE WORLD !!!
