Let's show the world we are true Hyderabadis

by True Hyderabadi » Wed Apr 08, 2009 2:29 pm

Dear Friends,

I want to take this opportunity to share some of my experiences being a Hyderabadi. Eventually I expect that every Hyderabadi will come to this situation that I go through, if we do not all work to rectify the situation. The reason I am sharing this info is our upcoming elections.

1. When I get introduce by someone as Zaheer from Hyderabad, or if I myself introduce myself to another person, after the formal niceties they ask if I am from the Old City (poranay shaher kay hai kya aap). Even though I stay in Mehdipatnam, I truly believe Hyderabad originated from the Old City only, so my reply to them is, Yes, Old City. Though there is really no such concept in Hyderabad as Old City and New City. This concept was created by some opportunistic politicians for their own sake.

2. I have personally noticed the numbers of the jobless, women in prostitution, child labour, elderly women begging at traffic signals, and the poor. Anyone who has a heart will definitely cry for the innocent people languishing with hunger in various locations of Hyderabad.

3. The present youth at least get higher education, but at the same time only 5% of our youth get jobs in any multinational company or such organizations, because the skills required in today's corporate culture are not being developed in our youth by the politicians for whom our elders have been voting from decades for the sake of religion.

4. Very often we feel there is now a feeling of religion in Hyderabad which was not there in the earlier days. This feeling has been generated and imbued into our minds by politicians of all sects and religions, but special credit goes to Owaisi and his companions.

5. If you visit any of the corporate hospitals such as Image, Yashoda, NIMS, KIMS, Apollo etc., you will find that most of the patients are paying bills that they usually don't have the capability for. So finally young women end up selling their jewellery, young boys try to take loans from friends or relatives to settle the bills, and elders try to sell off their ancient properties for their own treatment. And what of those who don't have even those assets? Where do they get the funds to pay for such hospitals?

Personally, I myself, during my father's illness, got a loan from my friends to settle the bills (and I am a so-called entrepreneur) but at the end of the day, I don't get even 1% support either from the hospital or from the politicians. EVEN though the OWAISI HOSPITAL AND RESEARCH CENTRE was established with the minority fund, practically 90% of the Owaisi hospital beds and equipment are never used, because the politicians don't want to give the management to the youth of Hyderabad who have a sincere desire to run such institutions on their own, and have the will and support from the community. Don't you think poor persons can get cure from such places if this happened?

6. Education: Our generations is doing really great in all studies, but after the final results they don't get seats in medical or any other good colleges if they don't have money. A few of them get seats because of their fathers or brothers working abroad who give them money for the high donations, but imagine the plight of those who have produced dynamic results but are poor - where do they go? Does our system today allow them to get education without money?

7. More or less Rs. 2,000 CRORES of Awkhaf lands and properties are under litigation, and this litigation is solved by our politicians who get a percentage as their own share. If these properties are control by a proper channel or a good board, imagine how much infrastructure and industry can be brought into our society for jobs.

8. Primary, secondary & higher education at most of the govt. schools has been shut down, and middle class and lower middle class kids are either dropping out from schools by the age of 8 or maximum 12 years. While our present politicians are constructing big buildings and renting them out to private and corporate schools in Hyderabad. The property provided to this schools is by our existing politicians, most of whom are the owners (examples being Gowtham School, Mehdipatnam; Gowtham College, Shalibunda; and Narayana Tehcno School, which are existing MIM MLAs' properties - and there are many more such examples in the twin cities).

9. According to a report, our existing Hyderabad MP has accounts in all European banks. In addition to that, major real estate developers are in partnership with his family, and their yearly turnover not less than Rs. 1000 crores. Our existing MLAs are also following in the footsteps of the MP saheb.

I request you to therefore vote for Zahid Ali Khan, the editor of Siasat, who is contesting as an independent with the cycle symbol for the Hyderabad Lok Sabha (MP) seat in the 2009 general elections.

Zahid sahab's personality and track record are completely free from corruption charges. Moreover, without being in politics, he has worked at the grassroot level for the youth of our city. At the same time, his companions have been involved in several social activities. And Zahid Ali Khan is a person who believes in and fears God. So I am going to cast my vote for him.

I am not asking you to vote for him, but before voting for anyone, please at least read the above evaluation of the present situation in our great city. And please send this message to all your contacts in Hyderabad and let them learn about the personality and vision of Zahid Ali Khan sahab before they take a decision.

Please vote against the evil forces that have been in power for decades and decades, and have been sleeping peacefully in air-conditioned rooms, leaving our fellow brothers and sisters in the darkness of poverty and illiteracy.

May God bring all happiness to all my fellow city mates.

Kindly cast your vote this time for a change towards betterment.

Yours sincerly

A true Hyderabadi

PS: This is not for communal minded people.

I would like to drop in my 2 cents.

First, I would like to make it clear that I do not intend to side any party. But, definitely would like to give my view point per the discussion.

Hyderabad constituency no doubt is Muslim dominated and for the same reason the seat is awarded to a Muslim Party . To a great extend MIM had a very good representation for the community at the state level and at the national level. As everyone knows , politics by itself in our country is a dirty game. To stay afloat every political party adopts some or the other gimmick. Like BJP promoting Ram Mandir and once in power trying to be secular. Suddenly, they distant themselves from Shiv sena and likewise other groups/parties. There are several good leaders within BJP who do not concur with the BJP idiologies but still need to be a integral part of it. Likewise, MIM has got party workers who are not a good representation of the community. All these years, MIM did good enough to keep a balance and keep itself afloat.

Speaking of the Medical/Engineering seats, we cannot go into the deatails of each case. But, overall, if we see the outcome of those education institutions, we have several engineers and doctors from those institutions who are from the same community. MIM was able to provide a platform for the community to make Engineers and Doctors. Also, make a hospital with the best possible facilities accessible to the community.

Nothing personal, but, I would like to point out Mr. Zahid Ali Khan's perspective . Who is he ? He is the elder son of Late Mr. Abid Ali Khan . Brother of reputed surgeon Mr Shahid Ali Khan. Abid Ali Khan earned name for his family and for the community. He was involved in numerous programs to help the poor of the community. But, never ever promoted himself.
Dr. Shahid Ali Khan once again earned a name as a highly talented surgeon. He too helped many poor people who came to his hospital by doing free surgeries and free hospitalization to an extend that his hospital was bankrupt. After the demise of Abid Ali Khan, Zahid Ali Khan became the editor for Siasat . This was only for names sake. In reality, the paper was run by the Mr Zaheeruddin Ali Khan , who is prefessionally a Chattered Accountant and a very intelligent and capable person who happens to be adopted son of Abid Ali Khan . After finishing his MBA, Zahid Ali Khan's son Amer Ali Khan got into the editorial for Siasat. Zahid ali Khan had never done anything in concrete by himself. There is nothing to his creditibility. He had always lived in a false pride . His life had been playing cards at the Nizam's Club.

It will be very ironical to know that Zahid Ali Khan's brother Dr Shahid Ali Khan is board member of Owaisi hospital and Deccan Medical College. His cousin/foster brother Mr Zahiruddin Ali Khan is also board member for Darus Salaam Trust and Deccan Engineering College. They are a part of the decision makers for these institutions. Zahid Ali Khan's cousin brother , who is a Very reputed person at various levels in the community Syed Akber Nizamuddin has got a say in all the MIM institutions. He himself had helped several poor people get admissions in both Engineering and Medicine. Everybody calls him "Sahib" with all due respect, including Asad Owaise and Akber Owaisi. Syed Akber Nizamuddin himself feels that Zahid Ali Khan is bringing shame to everybody.

The FACT- Zahid Ali Khan got pissed by the Owaisi's because his recommendation for an admission was not honoured . He tried to influence directly , when he could have asked any of his cousins to do so. As a result he started publishing against MIM which angered some uneduated (stupid rowdy sheeters) MIM workers , who illtreated him publicly . Zahid Ali Khan did everything possible in his capacity to get back with MIM which resulted in a political backing from all the possible political parties . He has no clue with how he can sustain politics if at all he is elected.
There are several ways he can help to benefit the community. With all the wealth and political backing he has got, he can open education institutions and help the poor and needy. He would not do that because it is hard work. The kind of personality he has, he can only argue with people . He has nobody in the family and friends that can stand next to him for any of his decisions. How can such person be trusted with responsibility to represent the community nationally.

On the contrary, Asaduddin Owaisi is a well educated (London) young politician who does not concur with many of the party workers for low acts they do that tarnish the community/party's image . Most of the time he overlooks their acts because there are similar people in other parties who does similar things . For example the BJP workers in the Gunfoundry/Abids area who are fully involved in land grabbing and rowdism likewise Congress is full of such people.

MIM no doubt has got a good hold and also have got a capable leader in Asad Owaisi. I would not say the same for Akber Owaisi as he had never made proud his own father. He was a dropout from Owaisi medical college and eloped with an Anglo Indian girl and return to get involved in politics. Also, the cause to disrespect elder people of the community including Zahid Ali Khan and being business minded with the admissions in the Medical and Engineering Colleges.

For any other parties to show their interests in the Hyderabad constituency is foolishness . I am not sure if any party will be able to tolerate the opposition of such a huge densly populated community. With the education institutions , Banks and hospitals that the MIM party owns, only they can someway or the other give back to the community.

Zaheer and Zahid (of siasat)

In an interview with many of our brethren in Puraney Shahar....the constant complaint was that they were tired of MIM and history shows they have done little or nothing towards development
But when they go to the polling booth they dont find an alternative with MBT not contesting in most places and they end up voting MIM

I hope you and your newly formed alliance will give strong opposition to help prove the point that you cannot take the voters for granted !
