The above words are the main heading of the news today, 10-09-2015, in Economic Times. True, the Government is taking fast and immediate decisions connected with ‘ease of business’, disinvestment, concessions to corporates, waival of taxes to the high and influential and so on.

But this ‘Usain Bolt Fast’ is limited to the issues concerning the interests of the  high and powerful. When it comes to the issues of workers, pensioners and the under-privileged, there is no fastness. Government does not move at all.

78.2% IDA fixation for  BSNL pensioners are due from 2007 onward, but no decision is taken even after 2 All India strikes demanding the same.

The Modi Government is on the side of the corporates and against the common people and the workers. Even after 15 crore workers went on strike on 2nd September 2015, none of the 12 demands raised by the Central trade Unions has been settled. Instead, it tried to divide the unity in CTUs by compelling  BMS to withdraw from the strike.

The common people and the toiling masses are watching all these and will react at the appropriate time.
