This is really an eye opener. But what thoughts bother me more is that people collected funds for the poor people of indian orogin in Fiji. If I go to these very people (who gave the "chanda" for fiji indians) to collect similar amount of funds to help the farmers in the remote villages of haryana many of whom are living well below poverty line and have very little land holdings left, I am sure that funds will not be acumulated.

I don't always belive whatever is written in the media - there are two sides to a story. However, if indeed this is true I have lost all the respect for the guy! Politics aside, there is something to be said about basic human integrity...

From Media news, specially Indian Media, you can never say what it is all about. They just add so that mirch masala that original taste of the news goes aaway. Do we know

-- Where these two carore might have come, I do not think it must have collected from Janata. Haryana's janta is far poorer than Fiji's janata. Indian in Fiji controls most of economy.
-- 2 caror is negligible in Indian politics nowadays, do you know how much money was collected for UP CM's birthday party last week.

Do not take me wrong here, I am not justifying any body here, But do not understand what this is all about.

We don't know the truth except this news but I always hear from my elders that..

"Ek haath se taali nahin bajti. "

Haan thapar jaroor lag sakta hei.

Now If this news is just a media hype then the C.M. must tell the media about the truth and let them know that this kind of publicity is no longer required in India as these kind of news really hurts the Indian minds.

No two schools of thoughts on that one, I agree 100%. That will be the only way (tell the truth) to remove the cloud of suspicion!
