Saving Diesel and Petrol with Permanent Simplicity is the Need of Time

On Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal to save diesel and petrol and not to buy gold, a few influential policymakers sitting in the governance and administration of the country must now certainly think that, sooner or later, instead of speeches and slogans, the public of the country will definitely start implementing every honesty-filled initiative put into practice on the ground by the country's policymakers and leaders, which will be in the interest of the country and society. But now, only and only drama will not work in the court of the public, because in the digital era, nothing can remain hidden easily anymore. Therefore, to stop wasteful expenditure in the interest of the country and society, the politicians and officials sitting in the governance and administration, who have become role models for the general public, by permanently adopting simplicity and saving government and private money, only then will the common masses be able to connect with this campaign of the country's Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

At a time when due to the America-Iran war, the energy crisis and inflation are standing before the entire world like the mouth of the demoness Sursa to swallow the wealth of the country, in that era, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed to all countrymen to save diesel and petrol and not to buy gold, because implementing this appeal of Modi will reduce the burden on India's foreign exchange reserves at least to some extent, which will also give an opportunity for the country's economy to improve. However, right after this appeal of Prime Minister Modi, a race to join this campaign of national interest being run by Modi has started in various parts of the country. Although right now most people are joining this campaign of Prime Minister Narendra Modi more symbolically, but even if symbolic, at least the beginning of people joining a very good initiative has started, and it is hoped that in the coming days, common people will also implement this initiative on a large scale.

By the way, across the country, after the appeal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, this campaign is gradually showing its colors on the ground. Right after the appeal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, from the top leadership of the BJP to the common workers, everyone first joined this campaign on a large scale and worked to give it the form of a movement. Since then, across the country, the judiciary, top bureaucrats, employees, and even the common masses are now seen joining this campaign of Modi on a large scale. Among the powerful people sitting at the top level of governance and administration, a race is currently going on across the country to renounce long and wide convoys of vehicles. However, whether this step of those people is actually a permanent initiative on the ground to adopt simplicity in life while cutting expenses from the heart, or just a drama to gather applause by posting a few posts on various platforms of media and social media, only the coming time will be able to tell. But the good thing is that at least when the entire world is standing on the brink of an energy and economic crisis due to the atmosphere of war, at that time, the beginning of the implementation of this appeal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the ground in India is a very good sign for the interest of the country and society.

But a noteworthy fact is also whether this campaign of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, instead of being for a short time, will be able to take a long-term permanent shape on the ground in the interest of the country and society, though only the coming time will be able to tell this. But the way a highly tense atmosphere is going on across the entire world due to wars, the message of that atmosphere is clear that now that era has come when, in the interest of the country and society, the people of governance and administration, who are spending life with full pomp, show, and grandeur like kings and emperors on the strength of the tax money of the public, should inspire people for "simple living, high thinking" while presenting an example of living life with simplicity before the common masses. Anyway, if seen, now that era has started in the country and the world, when talking about the interest of the country and society does not get completed merely by sitting in government offices and imposing one's thoughts or rules and laws by making them on the common masses, but to get it implemented, the powerful people sitting in governance and administration should also present an example by adopting simplicity and accountability on the path of life by becoming self-disciplined, only then will the common masses also work to implement it following their example. But in today's era of showing off by becoming a VVIP, with the kind of royal grandeur some politicians and some people sitting in governance and administration spend exorbitantly during government and private visits, shouldn't such people set a big example before the public by taking the initiative to voluntarily cut down all those unnecessary expenses in the interest of the country and society?

A noteworthy fact is also that nowadays, the way a desire remains in the minds of government or non-government people in the country to show themselves as a big VVIP, that desire is not right in the interest of the country and society, because in the desire to show these people as VVIP, a lot of tax money given by the public for the development of the country is misused on ostentatiousness like a huge apparatus of the system, long and wide convoys of luxury expensive cars, charter planes, etc., which should be stopped immediately. At the same time, the excessive security arrangements taken by some people to create their awe and show off, and the additional expenses incurred in maintenance should also now be completely limited. Because the way a few people, with the grace of some powerful people sitting in the system, enjoy themselves on the public's tax money under the guise of government machinery and persecute the public itself day in and day out, is not hidden from anyone; by colluding with some people sitting in the system, even wealthy individuals, brokers, and criminals in our beloved country are enjoying the awe of government security and facilities, which is an extremely worrying situation for rule-abiding and law-loving patriotic countrymen. In the interest of the country and society, the money given by the public in the form of tax should be spent on education, health, employment, youth, women, farmers, and industries, etc., along with the overall development of the country. The tax money of the people of the country should be utilized in the development of the country and the welfare of the common masses, not in the wasteful expenses and pomp and show of the desire to become a VVIP. Therefore, now that time has come in the interest of the country and society when the people sitting in governance and administration, taking the initiative of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to not buy gold and save diesel and petrol two steps forward, will work by keeping the interest of the country and society paramount by adopting simplicity and modesty on the path of life by becoming self-disciplined, and will make the country a world leader while rebuilding India.
