Even though most of the programmes taken up are important, the priorities given are not in tune with the promises made by election manifesto or expected from BJP Government by the public at large. I would like to mention 1. Uniform Civil Code for India 2. Illegal immigrants and foreigners staying in the country with out proper documentation. 3 Abolition of religion and caste based reservation in educational institutions and job reservation in Government services and èlsewhere 4. Removal of all subsidies phase by phase etc. more

1. Let there be total ban on violence in Movies. Singapore has achieved it. 2. Let there be total ban on Vulgarity. It does not represent Indian culture. 3. Great Melodies of yesteryear have disappeared. Movies based on great novels/stories have become a matter of past. They need to be revived. more

Films are made for entertainment and business purpose. But the youth without understanding this, attracted easily towards bad than good things shown in movies. It may increase violence and crimes against innocent girls and women. Wall posters pasted on walls and hoardings of films are put up with bad sceneries. Women (heroins and other ladies) are shown indecent way which may tempt youth leading to crimes. These things can be prevented by monitoring or "providing guidelines for printing banners and wall posters." Even in news papers whatever advertisement given by film industry are published. This can also be controlled by talking and explaining to editors, the importance of taking care of those for the better of youth and society. more
