Just days after the terrorists created havoc in our dear ol mumbai ,.... its really unfortunate that the whole of country has been hit by such a terrible epidemic .... ofcourse its nbot at all a surprise to note that its majorly only a particlular class of the society that is falling prey to the same ....
The class being referred to is ofcourse our very own dear flagbearers of our democratic system -- the politicians ..... and the epidemic they've started to suffer from is the 'foot in the mouth' disease. These poor souls have been making such fools out of themselves that one just cant even begin to guess what golden words can come out from which bigshot's mouth next !!!!!
It may be expecting too much to hope that these guys who represent us, have to be suave ... smart and awe inspiring ... Leaders atleast in the indian context, bringing out these kind emotions today exist unfortunately only in a small tiny corner called 'utopia ' !!! There are sure the odd exception here and there .. but definately its jus that ... an exception ... no longer a norm.
Given all this, though there is a certain bit of acceptance about the intel level ( or the lack of it ) of these guys still the fact that has been most shocking has been the casualness and the lack of sensitivity in many of them that have really left most of us i guess fuming !!! .... Dont think its expecting too much if we expect a head of a state to be sensitive to the feelings of a family that has just lost their brave son for the cause of the country ..... IF People who are peacefully expressing their thoughts and making the world know of the fact that for all the right that is India ... there are so many things goin wrong in this country .... THEN they are definately not goin against the tenets of democracy ... now whether the people are doin these wearing lipsticks or wearing wigs ... its not a point of any relevance here !!!!
If not for intelligent remarks the leastest ( for want of a better word) we can expect is them to be atleast politically smart!!! and understand the impact of their remarks on their vote bank ... herein even that has not happened ..... all these statements made by the members of this clan make us feel that the ones that are actually quite conspicous by their unusually long silence are actually doing themselves and their image a BIG favour ...
All this gets us to the pertinent question ... that we say that we should be held responsible for all this in some way cause we r the ones who got those cronies up there .... by either exercising our right or by chosing not to ... BUT as can be inferred from the above .... where do we the 'laxman's bunnies' have a choice ....... There's not much of a point in having ruler of the state be decided upon the anti- incumbency factor .... people with supposedly diffferent ideologies will just alternate .... but the net result would remain the same ....
do we see a third front coming in ??? can these kind of ultra awareness days ... and mass movement by the common men of the country lead to the formation of an independant front ... not ruled by parochialism .. or religion ... corruption ..... Is this possible ?? difficult i guess .... more so in a nation as diverse and radically vibrant as ours .... mayb such a movement can start off as a pilot proj at a smaller area .... build the momentum and them move forward .... tho difficult wouldnt say impossible coz at the end of the day ... every human, including u n me, is selfish .... selfish about himself ... about his family .... and if he is convinced that here is a front / grp of individuals that believe in the resurrection of a society that will foster the development of each and every particapant within the same ... thereby leading to the development of the society as a whole .... wouldnt a selfish person believe that here is my oppurtunity to side with a party that will grow ... let each one of its members grow and i also wont have to have the guilt of stunting the nations growth ... now that is a win-win situation there ... let me join this group of youngsters ...
hmmm .... all easy to think ... but WHO WILL GET HIS HANDS DIRTY IN THIS MUCK FIRST !!! ??
