Indian workers committing suicide after deportation from gulf

Clearly, despite all the generosity being showered by the UPA on Bangladesh now and on Pakistan in 2005 - desperate poverty exists in India itself. Even a relatively prosperous state like Andhra Pradesh saw 50 suicides by desperate workers deported from the Gulf. Sonia's man in AP, Kaangress CM Samuel Reddy initially refused to even acknowledge such cases. Hindus do not rejoice at human suffering - even that of enemies. But, since when did Pakistanis and Bangladeshis start paying taxes to the Indian exchequer? Therefore, somebody needs to be politically incorrect and remind Manmohan of the adage "Charity begins at home". Send those Rice bags and Rupees to taxpaying Indian citizens first before you dole out a single penny to Bangladeshi Mohammedans. Implement a Social Security and Medicare system for Indians first - apparently, we can afford that and more.
If largesse to East Pakistan is wilfully persisted with, and there are more suicides by farmers and workers in India (which there will be), Manmohan, Chidambaram and Pranab Mukherjee should be held personally liable for homicide and prosecuted by a Nuremberg type tribunal for causing mass death and destitution of the people whose welfare they were entrusted with.
