Gurus, Gas & Indian democracy

India needs all the benevolent gurus, rishis, holy spirits of the past to smile upon Indian democracy, so we can separate it from the tissue of lies that our governments in cohorts with immoral businessmen have told us, the unseeing public,  for the last 40 years. The rampant rape and exploitation of our natural resources by the chosen few, will heap retribution from an assaulted earth. Finally the rule of Cause and Effect cannot be avoided---as you sow, so shall you reap. No act of evil goes un noticed--as they say, the wheel of universal law moves slowly, but finally none can escape it--no I am not talking about the natural gas in the KG Basin or of Reliance, but if you, the dear reader of my blog, should choose to think that, who am I to stop you?

Delhi's Statehood--for real or a gimmick?

What the TV pundits are saying is that---"Desh Chalana or Andolan Chalana dono alagh baat hain"---But AAP Protesters are replying---Is that So?

There is something reminiscent of the Salt Satyagraha as one Commentator put it on TV--the romanticism of protest---but the moot point is, he continues, where should it end?

I ask you dear reader--where do you think this should end? 

Question: Can an idealist and agitator--transform himself into an able and wily administrator? Is Congress going to be the only incarnation of the latter, and hence the only able ruler in Indian democracy? Then are we saying that AAP and Congress are two faces of the same coin--One Protests ably (AAP) which the other (Congress) no longer has the moral force to do so; the other governs ably (Congress) which the AAP finds itself ill suited for?

I don't know---only time will tell what this " dharna"  will achieve. I for one, do not believe it is a manipulated political gimmick, though without a sense of political timing, no astute politician can win, but that doesn't necessarily ascribe it to gimmickry.

There is something more churning and TV political Pundits are missing it.
