It is not often that we hear some good economic or social news about Bihar. She is certainly not among the states with good economic growth. In any case, there is one group of Biharis whom I wish to pay tribute to. They are the Bihari migrant workers.
The future Indian will be the relocatable Indian. The future Indian will be the mobile Indian. The future Indian will be the traveling Indian. In a market economy, we should let the market decide how and where India’s manpower will be located and relocated; and the Bihari migrant workers are a good example. I understand that at least some Bihari migrant workers have moved to other parts of India to seek work. This is the right way.
By moving to areas where there are jobs available, the Bihari workers are filling shortages in India. It is about shortages and surpluses. It is about separating the politicians from the economy. It is about getting rid of all the government monopolies.
What should the Indian politicians do about the economy? Nothing. Well, almost nothing. The people/market are not stupid. The people/market do know how to take care of themselves. The people/market do not need the politicians to tell them what to do. I think politicians should take a break. I think politicians should stay home. Why don’t the politicians mind their own business and leave the market economy alone? The less the politicians do, the more the market economy can do; and the more the politicians do, the less the market economy can do. As much as possible we have to get rid of all these government monopolies. I think politicians should stay home; and there are lots of things the politicians can do at home. The politicians can watch television at home. The politicians can watch movies on DVD at home. The politicians can play ping-pong with their family members at home. The politicians can learn yoga exercises at home. The politicians can read a fiction story book at home. The politicians can take a nap at home. There are lots of things the politicians can do at home. In a free market economy, mobility of labor is an important factor. The Indian people do know how to move around and seek employment. No attempt should be made to discourage people from one state to relocate to another state. Let the market decide for itself. The people are smart enough and will figure out how to relocate, when to relocate, and where to relocate. In fact, relocating from one state inside India to another state inside India for better opportunities has been going on for decades. Your work environment is a workplace and also a school. As you work, you also learn. Please do learn as much as possible from your work environment. After you have learned as much as possible, if you want to get ahead, you can start looking for work at another location. If your employer does not pay you well then he will pay a heavy price when you finally leave and relocate to another job. After you learn as much as possible, you can start your own company and start employing people. So the purpose of becoming an employee is to become an employer eventually. Whether your employer approves it or not, you have to find a way to turn your work environment into a school for you. Yes, we should let the market decide how and where India’s manpower will be located and relocated; and as much as possible try not to leave India to look for work because India may need your services.
I understand that there is a Sikh colony in Hyderabad city. I bet you that there are several different colonies in Bombay/Mumbai with each having their own market niche. For instance, I understand that the Gujaratis are well represented in Mumbai's stock trading which may be their market niche. The Muslim Indians are well represented in Bollywood as movie stars, which is their own market niche. Muslim Indians are also famous for their cuisines, which is also their market niche. Different communities may have a different market niche inside Mumbai/Bombay; and through their work, they contribute to India's growth.
It is all about jobs, jobs, jobs. If you go to Mumbai/Bombay or New Delhi, I bet you that there are migrant workers from many other parts of India. These migrant workers are also voters and can eventually vote in the Mumbai or New Delhi elections. What can migrant workers give? Migrant workers can vote. Let us suppose that there are hypothetically three states inside India. Let us suppose that they are named State A, State B, and State C. Let us suppose that State A has rapid economic growth, and States B and C have slow growth and high unemployment. It is possible that workers from States B and C will find their way into State A to seek employment. So the migrant workers inside State A become an asset to politicians in State A because they can vote for politicians in State A. The politicians from State A will be the net gainers. I tell you that if you are unemployed and if you wait for the local politician to create jobs, then you may end up waiting for ever. If you have to move from State B or State C to State A to seek employment, then you have to move. Irrespective of what the politicians say, if you have to move, then you have to move. It is not good to rely too much on politicians. It is all about jobs, jobs, jobs. Please tell all your friends to make plans to move to another state inside India in order to seek employment. Please tell all your friends not to depend on politicians and that it is better to relocate to another state to be employed. The bottom-line is that there should be no resistance to relocate, move, and travel inside India. The bottom-line is that there should be no opposition to relocate, move, and travel inside India. The future Indian will be the relocatable Indian. The future Indian will be the mobile Indian. The future Indian will be the traveling Indian. In a market economy, we should let the market decide how and where India’s manpower will be located and relocated; and as much as possible try not to leave India to look for work because India may need your services. In any case, several Indians have been moving from one state inside India to another state inside India for better opportunities for decades.
