NORTH EAST- THE UNWANTED…

The report by New Delhi based North East Support Centre which precursors the impending exodus of the people from the north east towards the other parts of the country in the next few years should be a wakeup call for the central government to stop the step child treatment for this very own part of our country. The writing is on the wall that a lot of political parties will milk this situation for their political gains by putting them in the category of ‘the unwanted’ like the people from UP and Bihar.  The politicians are deliberately obtuse to understand that the dice is loaded against these hapless people and they’re not invaders but a victim of the deficiency of development in their respective states and as a citizen of this country they’ve the constitutional right to move out to earn a living. The development doesn’t mean constructing highways which takes the youth out of their states but to bring in education and employment in the state itself. Few developed cities don’t make us a developed country, the growth needs to be inclusive so the central and the state governments should usher in fresh ideas and chalk out plans to bring employment opportunities in these deplorable and paralyzed states.
