Hogenakkal issue and Rajini

For the past few days, the Hogenakkal issue has been occupying the front pages of all newspapers. Its evident that there’s too much of unneccessary politics going around regarding this issue.

Rajini’s speech in the meeting was correctly (!) misinterpreted by the Kannada activists and they say that they would neither allow Rajini into K’taka nor screen his films. This would not affect Rajini in anyway and the activists are using this RAJINI issue as a means to gather popularity and divert others from the main issue. We should appreciate Rajini’s gesture of speaking and behaving in the perfect manner.

I dont see any sense in burning effigies or damaging public property like buses (remember, its our tax which is going to ashes!). Instead, efforts must be taken by the people concerned to smoothly sort out the issue. Surprisingly (and sadly too!), there isnt much of response from the Central govt. Perhaps, they are worried about the elections and their image at Karnataka. I feel that our CM’s stand of postponing this project is correct, since it will encourage a intellectual approach towards this problem and not a sentimental one.

Right from the Cauvery issue, the entire country is aware of K’taka s nature.

Even in the current issue, our stand is correct and their claim is absolutely wrong. This has been proven with scientific and historical evidence.

I strongly condemn the ownership of natural resources by states. After all we all belong to the same country and its a matter of sharing. K’taka shd follow the principle of ‘LIVE AND LET LIVE’ It is known to everyone that Hogenakkal belongs to us. If K’taka keeps on behaving in this manner, how will we quench our thirst?

Vijayakant correctly argues, ”What would happen if we cut power supply to K’taka from Neiveli?” Instead of adopting a tit-for-tat approach, the issue can be approached correctly and the dispute should be sorted out by the central govt in a smooth manner.

Let’s see what other comedies happen based on this issue…
