  Is it something inevitable for the govt., at this point of time - that the (atleast they say )treasury is empty and to refill it? and that the public has to understand it and to its part.. OR is it an act of an irresponsible government that takes public for granted?
  
  On a long term basis price-hike may not be a right solution for income for the govt. but to invent new ways of income and strengthening the industrial sector, exports etc...

  Haris,
  
  We need to notice this issue very carefully.
  I do not remember any such hikes even in
  Budgets in recent history of TN.
  In 6 months of ruling the Government
  did not warn the people to be ready for such
  hikes. They just told the treasury was empty.
  They have reduced the bonuses of the transport
  staff which is their sole right. The loss in
  the Transport corporation is not a new story.
  It has been there for 20 years. How to avoid it?
  As long as these people are there nobody can
  avoid since the loss is due to malfunctioning
  of management due to corruption. MK ruled TN for
  5 years. He never dared to announce such hikes.
  Tell me how he managed. By burdening poor and
  middle class people what this Government is
  going to achieve. After all if this Government
  cant protect the interests of people who are living in poverty, why the Goverment should exist.

  Arivudai-
  
  I'm not sure about the intrecacies of running a govt. But to the question how MK managed to run the govt without burdening the public, probably he got some loans. ( which is not bad or unusual). And i'm furious about increasing the bus ticket rates.. ( Rs. 2 ), electricity, rice.. etc... I remember travelling from mylapore to adyar in pallavan for 50 paise.

  Idiot Harris:
  I increased Bus fare from 1 Ruppe minimum to 1 rs 75 Paise in 1996 to 2000
  
  I increased Electricity charges two times in 96 and then in January 2000
  
  By the way i have pocketed 3000 crores last 5 years from State govt.The Construction companyy which built flyover gave me 20 crores for each flyover contract.I donated 5 crores to Arivalayam, 5 crores to my Friend Dr Ramadass and rest i gave to SunTV.Dont worry my Friend,I got draft in Name of Sun TV so i will not go to jail there is no proof.Like this we got some 300 drafts- each road contract we got 50 crores draft then we lay just cement powder and fooled Tamil citizens.
  
  I earned 5000 crores for my family last 5 years,.Had I continued, i would have made even more money but then that bittch came back to power.Still Maran is getting lot of money so we continue get richer.
