Am back after a two month hiatus! It feels great to begin writing yet again, this time with vengeance. Kalmadi is absconding, last heard he was chilling his heels in "Monaco". Raja "the pawn" is out of media witchhunt and is cooling of in chennai. And now the latest to hit the circuit... "Nira Radia scandalgate - get the BIG guys with her damn it!"
The gala expose of the Nira Radia papers have shockingly got the esteemed house of the TATA's into the muck. And what a revelation. If you follow the "Girish Nikam" website http://indiasreport.com/magazine/data/the-radia-papers-raja-tata-ambani-connection/ - you will get a chance to witness the exciting trailer - one that has in lead roles: CBI and Income Tax officials, ED and the media lobby all engrossed in the deal making industry. Mercilessly playing around with zillions of the hardworking, sincere middle class tax-payers.
When and where will all this stop? Or will this ever stop? I don't think so! We've got immuned, in fact de-sensitized to the scale and scope of corruption. It's now in our blood. We passively shuffle news channels, which incessantly broadcast and repeat the scandalgate news, we make passing comments, joke about all this and get back to the rigmarole of our lives. Honestly, there is little that we can do.. The lobby up there is just too powerful.
The irony is that the power bestowed upon them is by none other than "Us"!
what else can one do? A lot of us want to fight it out. But its too messy and we are just so powerless. The evils of democracy, bhai.
