He summarises caste system and economic policies etc.. are the deep routed problems. Corruption is just the tip of the iceberg  This man Sainath he has journeyed 10k + kms into rural areas, he is an authority on rural India and its issues.

Quantifying untouchability, the study revealed that the denial of entry to Dalits into ‘upper caste’ homes was a “strictly observed practice” with 82 per cent of the households saying they were not allowed into these homes.

Sixty-four out of 100 households said they were denied entry to temples (here, an overwhelming majority said they could not enter the sanctum sanctorum of the temple, notes the study), while 22 per cent were not allowed to go near common water sources in the villages.

If we were to look at specific groups or communities, this would be even clearer. Let alone on the hunger index, India's rank in the U.N.'s Human Development Index is anyway dismal. There, at 126, we are below Bolivia, Guatemala and Gabon. Yet even that rank does not tell the full story. If we were to isolate the rich and the better off as a group, they might enter the top 10 nations. Efforts last year to look at adivasis as a group led pretty much in the reverse direction. One study found that if we were to derive the HDI for our tribes only, they would rank in the worst off 25 nations of the world.

4 SIT CLAIM DENT on MODI

http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/wireless-messages-dent-sit-claim-on-modi/article4627871.ece   

The real story emerges in a series of desperate wireless messages sent out by police and intelligence field staff positioned at the Sola Civil Hospital and other locations on February 27 and 28, 2002. The wireless extracts, annexed to a protest petition filed against the SIT’s closure report by Ms. Jafri in a local court, show the following.

   

5 SIT ADVOCATE SAYS NOT A TOTAL CLEAN CHIT:

http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/not-a-total-clean-chit-sit-counsel/article3301248.ece?ref=relatedNews

However, the SIT's advocate, R.S. Jamvuar, hinted that it was not a “total clean chit” given to all those named in Ms. Jafri's complaint. “I can't say it is a clean chit. But, there are a lot of points in the report, based on which a lot of departmental inquiries can be initiated against those who are accused in the case,” he said, asked about the details of the SIT report in respect of Mr. Modi and others.

The Ode probe, also conducted by the SIT, achieved this, despite many prosecution witnesses turning hostile, he said. The fact that the fast track court also accepted the “criminal conspiracy theory” against the accused showed the “quality of investigation.”

 

6 HIS TAINTED AIDES

AMITH SHAH MODI's CLOSE AIDE is on BAIL

http://www.in.com/videos/watchvideo-stay-out-of-gujarat-supreme-court-to-amit-shah-9696552.html

The Supreme Court has directed that while his bail is under challenge, he is not permitted to enter his home state of Gujarat where he may influence the investigations as he was the Home Minister during the encounter killing. "The CBI has also been arguing before the Supreme Court that the Tulsi Prajapati murder was also ordered by Shah and that the case should be transferred out of Gujarat where it may be subject to interference.[23]

In contrast to the Court order for Amit Shah to remain outside Gujarat, he surprisingly attended cricket match between India-Pakistan on Dec 28, 2012 in Ahmadabad alongside Narendra Modi. He was also part of the presentation ceremony at the end of the match."

 7. RSS BACKED MODI :

 http://www.rediff.com/news/special/exclusive-modi-will-lead-bjp-in-lok-sabha-election/20130609.htm

Modi has been placed miles ahead of other BJP leaders by the party's parent organisation, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, in the year before the scheduled general election of 2014.

In spite of BJP veteran L K Advani's [ Images ] resistance, the RSS is backing Modi in the larger interest of the saffron brotherhood, the Sangh Parivar.

 8.2 NO JOBS TO DALITS

There is growing backlog of posts reserved for dalits in the state government. Instead of filling these posts, efforts are being made to cancel them, claimed Gohil.

According to Gohil, records of the last five years showed that budgetary provisions for dalit-centric projects remained unused.Commercialisation of education also has created a situation where dalits cannot afford education which is dominated by self-financed institutions.

8.3 MODI  calls DALIT MENTALLY RETARDED

http://www.countercurrents.org/teltumbde100510.htm

On 25 April 2010 Narendra Modi is reported to have observed while releasing his book Samajik Samrasata that Dalits were like mentally retarded children.

In this village, discrimination is literally written on the wall
The writing says Rajputs and Patels will get water from 8 am to 10 am. Then, from 10 am to 12 noon, it is the turn of the Bharwads and Vaghris and lastly, Harijans and other untouchables for the next two hours.

The Sarpanch also accepted that they put up the notice on the wall to streamline the distribution of water as the village has different water distribution lines according to castes residing in the areas.

10  ANTI POOR and ANIT MUSLIM

http://www.frontline.in/cover-story/voice-of-victims/article4666653.ece

There are plenty of indicators to prove that Gujarat under Modi has no place for minorities. Several recent reports and analyses show that the Muslims of Gujarat are among the poorest and most discriminated against community in the country. Additionally, the employment of tactics such as amending laws to suppress the community establishes Modi’s agenda.

http://www.socialjusticeindia.org/human_rights.htm

We found that in 95% of the cases there is acquittal due to negligence and hostile role of government pleaders. In most of the remaining 5% cases the accused are punished under provisions of the Indian Penal Code and are acquitted under the SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities Act. In many cases severe strictures are passed by courts and directions are issued for action against erring officials for negligence in cases of atrocities on Dalits and Adivasis, but instead of taking any action against them they are rewarded with promotions.

We made several representations to the Gujarat government in this regard but no action has been taken. The government has not filled up the numerous posts for Dalits that are still lying vacant. Even in the SC Welfare Department of the Gujarat government, which is meant to be the apex government department working for Dalits, there are many such vacant posts. For instance, the Department has been sanctioned 23 PSI class III officers, but only 2 posts have been filled up. While there are meant to be 185 Inspector Class III officers there are only 83. In the Junior inspector Class III grade there are supposed to be 40 posts but only 17 have been filled up.

http://www.rediff.com/news/slide-show/slide-show-1-what-surveys-dont-really-tell-us-about-narendra-modi/20130611.htm

There is a more basic point to be made that involves understanding how our Westminster parliamentary democracy works. Asking whether respondents support one or another individual for PM may be of interest, but there is no guarantee that people will actually vote on that basis.

In our model, unlike a presidential system, voters elect members of Parliament, and the national election is an aggregation of individual contests across constituencies.
