SIDDARAMAIAH’S BHAAGYA (LUCK OR KISMAT)

Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah has been introducing many schemes for people of Karnataka awkwardly in the name of BHAGYA.  When I tried to find the meaning of Bhagya in dictionary the meaning is simple and straight, in English “Luck” in Hind “Kismat”. I feel these kinds of scheme name are nothing but arrogance in democracy. By the people, for the people and of the people concept is ignored and the government expects people to rely on this kind of schemes (Luck) where it is not even equally granted to all the people, it is limited to only one sect or caste.

Generally what we believe that LUCK is one's pure belief and many believe that it is showered upon human being by god or destiny. Now my question is if government thinks it is god and selectively grants luck for chosen group of people collecting our own money in the form of tax. Is it not the mockery of Democracy?

Do the law makers expect people to worship the government and beg for Bhagya or luck?  Another arrogance and senseless act is the Bhaagya scheme is even extended mercilessly to small children i.e., 5 Eggs for SC/ST and 3 Eggs for General category in a week. Government first of all calling these schemes Bhagya is wrong and discrimination among people is the act of insensitivity.  

Even if we think for a minute and forget discrimination among people in BHGYAs the government granted, even for the poor people how can a government say it’s LUCK (Bhagya)? It is the right of every citizen of this country to have all the facilities provided by the government and government is not God’s resting place (HEAVEN) and CM is no god. As per the constitution, every elected person is the servant of the people and serves the country. Then why this fake, temporary and 5 years Godly act. Providing facilities and schemes for the betterment of the people and spending people’s own money needs no tag line, “LUCK”. Governments should be sensitive towards people and feelings. Yes, you have won elections to serve the people for a limited period of time; this should not turn the law maker arrogant enough to call the government facilities “BHAGYA” or “Luck” and act like god.

Who are we human beings to grant LUCK to fellow human beings? I request these kinds of law makers to be sensitive towards people & poor and refrain from using such name for public welfare schemes. India has changed, its not 1960’s India, where people used to think Indira Gandhi was Goddess. People are more educated and literate now than the 1960's time. Please don’t give such names like BHAGYA to the schemes. You are using people’s money for these schemes, give names which are not arrogant in nature or portray government or CM as GOD.
