UN Human Development Report shames India by reducing its HDI ranking 3 points to 127th out of 175 countries surveyed just below 'wonderful' countries like Morocco (126th),Botswana (125th),Namibia(124th),SaoTome(122nd),Nicaragu(121st), Guatemala (119th), Gabon (118th), Mongolia (117th), Equatorial Guniea (116th), Honduros (115th), Bolivia(114th), Tajikistan(113th) et. al., despite doctored figures injected into the UNDP report about India's miserable performance
Sikhs want OUT of a miserable unhappy 'country' where 730 million Indians (72%) have no sanitation, 510 million (51%) have no access to affordable medicines 349 million exist on less than $. 1 a day & 800 million on less than $. 2 a day & one and half million women are exporting HIV/AIDS
Washington, D.C., Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - The central message from the UN's 2003 Human Development Report, (an annual 'yardstick' and a comparison of human progress in various countries of the world - from the richest to the poorest) which was released last week, is that, Indian officials seem to have 'done a number' on the United Nations Development Programme. They have submitted doctored figures which exaggerate India's performance, (GDP - PPP - figures for example) and as a result, may have stopped India's downwards slide in the HDI (Human-development-index) ranking but these shenanigans may have, in our opinion, tarnished that excellent UN's Human Development report's integrity and reputation. More on this hanky-panky at the end of this column in our appeal to Mr. Mark Malloch Brown, Administrator, United Nation's Development Program (UNDP).The UN's Human Development Program is the process of enlarging people s chances, what people do and can do is their lives in pursuit of happiness as human progress is shaped by political power and institutions. The UN's Annual Human Development Report-2003 (which examines 175 countries and was released last week) is about, to use an _expression of the UNDP, "what it will take for countries to establish democratic governance systems that advance the human development of all people - in a world where so many are left behind."
Since it was first published in 1990, the UN's Human Development Report has developed and constructed several composite indices to measure different aspects of human development. The Human Development Index (HDI) has been constructed every year, since 1990, to measure average achievements in basic human development in one simple composite index and to produce a ranking of countries, a cross section of which is reproduced in the chart below, to give an idea where India stands in the world after fifty six years rascal-rule and socalled Independence.
The annual UN's Human Development Report is of special interest to the persecuted monotheistic minorities - Christians, Sikhs and Muslims - captive in polytheistic India currently misruled by the Hindutva-fundamentalist, Neo-Nazi BJP coalition. These monotheistic minorities were abandoned to their fate when an exhausted Imperial Britain retreated, in August of 1947, from its South Asian colony in haste, after World War II. These monotheistic communities in India have since then lived in fear and are at the mercy of polytheistical, and inherently fascist and crafty, Brahmin-caste-dominated majority which took over the instruments of state power, both democratic and coercive, from the retreating British in August of 1947. As a backgrounder please also see Khalistan Calling dated August 14, 2002, at: www.khalistan-affairs.org/khalistancalling/2002/august14.aspx and Khalistan Calling dated July 04, 2000, headlined "UN's Human Development Report-2000 released" at: www.khalistan-affairs.org/khalistancalling/2000/july04.aspx and Khalistan Calling dated July 17, 1999 headlined, "World's sixth Nuclear Power Ranks 132nd in UN's Human Development Report -1999", at: www.khalistan-affairs.org/khalistancalling/1999/july14.aspx
The UN's Human Development Report for the year 2003, measures human development in 175 countries in such areas as, % of literacy, % of population living below the poverty lines of $. 2 and $. 1 per day, % of population using adequate sanitation facilities, % of population with access to essential drugs, number of women living with HIV/AIDS, % of under-weight children under 5 years of age etc., etc.
Despite the 'Brahamanical hanky-panky', on which we will comment later in this column, India was placed 127th out of 175 countries surveyed. Last year India was placed 124th out of 173 countries surveyed. This year Botswana, which was 126th last year in the HDI rank - below India - has overtaken the world's largest 'democracy' in Human development and moved upto 125th in HDI (Human-Development-Index). To India's shame war-ravaged Bosnia-Herzegovina has been placed at 66th and Occupied Palestine has earned the 98th slot on the HDI. Bangladesh has moved up from 145th last year to 139th this year while Pakistan has dropped to the 144th slot from 138th last year. Sri Lanka has also dropped from 89th last year to 99th this year. Nepal has dropped one place to 143rd from 142nd last year. The remote and under-developed Himalayan mountain kingdom of Bhutan - an Indian protectrate - has for some reason shot up to 136th place from 140th last year in the HDI ranking. Just like last year this year too, Sierra Leone is last in the HDI ranking at 175th and Norway is number one. Australia has moved up to 4th while United States and Canada have moved down to 7th and 8th rank..
The world's largest 'Democracy' - India - whose ambitious Hindutva rulers want it to occupy a permanent seat in the UN's Security Council before even Japan, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, Brazil and Mexico (and whose 'all-powerful' socio-economic Caste system follows a basic precept that, "All men are created UNEQUAL"- click at the National Geographic site at: magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/0306/feature1/index.html) is stuck at No. 127 in HDI ranking just below such wonderful countries as Morocco (126th), Botswana (125th), Namibia (124th), Sao Tome & Principe (122nd), Nicaragua (121st), Guatemala (119th), Gabon (118th), Momngolia (117th) Equatorial-Guinea (116th), Honduras (115th), Bolivia (114th) and Tajikistan at 113th. India's Hindutva-fundamentalist BJP rulers can take pride that India at 127th HDI ranking is a shade above Vanuato (128th), Ghana (129th), Cambodia (130th), Myanmar (131st), Papua New Guinea (132nd), Swaziland (133rd), Bhutan (136th), Bangladesh (139th), Nepal (143rd), Pakistan (144th), Kenya (146th) and Yemen (148th).
WE urge the Administrator of the United Nation's Development Program (UNDP) Mr. Mark Malloch Brown and Human Development Report-2003 Director, Sakiko Fukuda Parr, to investigate how India with a GDP per capita annual growth rate of 4% could increase its GDP per capita PPP for the year 2001 to $. 2, 840 from $. 2, 358 in the year 2000 an increase of $. 482 one of the highest - out of proportion - increases among 173 countries ranked in the HDI? China, with a 8.8% GDP per capita annual growth rate, increased its GDP per capita PPP for the year 2001 to $. 4, 020 from $. 3, 976 in 2000 - an increase of only $. 44. Interestingly the Indian protectorate of Bhutan, with a 3.5% GDP per capita annual growth rate increased its GDP per capita PPP for the year 2001 to $. 1, 833 from $. 1, 412 in 2000 - an increase of $. 420. Bangladesh with a 3.1% GDP per capita annual growth rate increased its GDP per capita PPP for the year 2001 to $. 1, 610 from $. 1, 602 in 2000 - an increase of only $. 8. Interestingly India's GDP for the year 2001 was US $. 477 billions an increase of about US $. 20 billion from the figure for the year 2000 which was US $. 457 billion. In comparison China's GDP for the year 2001 was US $. 1,159 an increase of US $. 79 from the GDP figures for the year 2,000 which was 1, 080 Billion. All figures in this paragraph, for the year 2001, were culled from page 280 - chart 12, Economic Performance - from the UN's Human Development Report 2003. Figures for the year 2000 taken from page 192 - chart 12, Economic Performance - from the UN's Human Development Report 2002.
This horrible situation in the world's largest Castocracy - India - visible in the UNDP report will continue to persist and India will never, not even in a hundred years, be able to shed the squalor, the misery and the lack of hope that is India unless liberal infusion of social investment takes place, and that will never happen, as long as the medieval Hindu caste system, and its morally repugnant Hindutva-fundamentalist champions, continue to misrule the roost in Delhi.
The only way Indian Occupied Sikh Punjab can prosper, reduce its unemployment, recapture its life-giving river waters, export its surplus foodgrains to the 'Stans' of Central Asia and improve the lot of its Sikh majority, their children and their children, is by saying "Good Bye" - "Sayonara" - to the squalor that is India by creating a democratic, egalitarian buffer state of Khalistan, West of the Jumna river, East of the Pakistan border, South of Kashmir and South West of Tibet China.
