Congress Cuts its Costs...?

My comment on expenditure cut by congress
Nowadays the one of the most talked subject by politicians is the expenditure cut by congress, for this they asked two cabinet ministers, ie Mr.Shashi Tharoor & Mr. S.M. Krishna to vacate the expensive hotels where they stayed, and also the congress has come up with a circular to all ministers to travel in the economy class, and that decision is still going on.Days back when Mr Rahul Gandhi came to visit Kerala, its understood that a good amount of money was spent. Many TV news channels gave importance to this issue, and also many of the ministers here in Kerala was speaking untiringly about the expenditure by Rahuls visit. To my knowledge he is having the same security as for a cabinet minister, he is also in the hit list of terrorists, or if any organisation block his way or do any odd thing to him, that will lead to many untoward incidents in India. And also it’s understood that he is the target for terrorists to making the world know about them. In his personal life he has lost his grandmother & father. On 10th of this month Shri Pranab Mukherjee came to Kochi , for attending his Party meeting, it was too on a private aircraft, this was also given by a news channel narrating that he is spending too much of money, which is against his words. This may be right but the money he spends is from his party fund. I came to know that all his expense where met by the congress party, it’s the money which people donate for the congress for their party work. Anyway let’s understand it’s not the money we pay as tax, or collected by government in some or the other way. Here in our Kerala we can see that our money collected by government is spending lavishly for the ministers for modifying their homes, buying new branded cars and many more.I don’t know why there is a hide and seek between the state and central govt in this issue for over expense, and why unnecessary spending time by news channels in this issue, and why the ministers seek time to speak more on this, from their valuable time which is more valuable than money.
