Indian politics has perennially been obsessed with the term Gandhi. Gandhiian dynasty post independence has predominantly ruled India as their own cultivation, forced ill-treated Indian junta to fallaciously fantasize a fancy that Kashmir borders stretch as shown in 50 paisa maps while conceding to continual threats of China/Pakistan, defying self only acknowledged theory of Panchsheel, under the pretext of non violence and hence projecting India as big girl’s blouse. The purportedly prescient Congress, that always opposed birth based casteism, prophesied century’s greatest precognition by introducing portentous reservations – new discrepancy to end old disparity. Indian junta - Habitual of pursuing a leader, was brainwashed to believe that Nehru (Father of POK) and Indira (Mother of emergency) took India to world’s centre stage. Remarkably none of them was chosen because of his/her leadership abilities. Nehru was biased against Sardar Vallabh as he was the most favorite disciple of Mahatma Gandhi. Indira Gandhi wasn’t the best party worker available to Congress. Obviously when one is born in a family as royal as hers, she would get plenty of opportunities to convince general public and henceforth prove that her candidature is the mandate of Indian public. This entire drama is played with the help of media. Next to join this league of extra ordinary politicians is Mr. Rahul Gandhi
Rahul Gandhi was a born introvert and the early deaths of his grandmother and father made his life traumatic at a premature age. He was very shy in his college as well and was talented enough to graduate from Trinity College (he failed in one of the subjects though). He wasn’t interested in joining politics but always had dreams of a developed India. How he decided to join politics is still a debatable issue but perhaps the plight of Indian politics or the mandate of congress party workers, made him change his mind. We know all this either by calculation or by virtue of media coverage. Once Rahul decided to join and decided to put forth his candidature, this coverage saw exponential increase. If one looks at past editions of any newspaper, one can easily tell when Rahul ate sweet at a dalit’s residence, when he spoke first in public or Lok Sabha, when he decided to step down as minister and when he decided to give himself some more time. Many a times it came to my mind that instead of scripting small columns speckled here and there at newspaper’s visage, newspaper should commence a devoted column titled “Aaj Rahul ne kya kiya”.
Surprisingly, I don’t know any of such detail about the daughters of Advani or Pawar. I admire media for the way it gave public a chance to look into the tragic lives of Rahul and Priyanka. But I know many persons who lost their parents in childhood and henceforth fought not only with fate but with poverty as well while Rahul remained under the aegis of his royal family. So who is more of a leader and more educated? Is it Rahul or the common middle class man? Here media instead of looking for unique abilities, put forth Rahul as a cultured educated youth based on most prevalent virtues. If these facts alone make him eligible for PM candidature then 99 % of the Indian masses deserve to be PM. A common man fights with the hardships to give proper education/food to his family. Who is tougher? I feel Middle class youths should take pride in hardships they face every other moment; they are no less than Mr Rahul.
Rahul’s coyness and vision has always been highlighted. It sounds astonishing that at a point where the media should have condemned him for the lack of leadership aptitude, it always treated him as if he is in some ‘How to be a PM’ classroom and would improve in next to no time. Rahul was always the undeclared PM of media. No wonders why they gave so much coverage to his first speech in Lok Sabha as if Indian politics was waiting for his speech alone. Several other MPs give their first speech every other day, then why this preferential treatment? Introversion should have made him an ideal husband but definitely not the PM of India, but alas! Our media didn’t learn a bit from the blunder that our shy PM made at recent balochistan issue. No reporter points out the need of a good debater in Indian politics and no channel mentioned that when Rahul appreciated Nitish, it was pure politics and nothing more than that. Even today media found praise in the fact that Rahul did trekking; however was worried about results of state assembly elections (But why he took a cameraman there?)
After 2009 general elections, congress got the clear verdict. Rahul Gandhi was once again extolled for his sacrifice as he repudiated the post of minister and preferred working as a party worker. Had Sachin pilot made such sacrifice, I would have appreciated it because as long as Rahul captures the center stage, he can only imagine becoming a minister at most. But if Rahul makes such sacrifice, that is more of a premeditated move. Congress is ordained to be in power for next 5 years and hence instead of making hasty moves, projecting rahul as a “Tyaag ki murti” is a much safer bet. Had congress failed to get majority, Rahul would have been the next PM without delay after a pre-intended drama of party workers demanding youth participation blah blah.
If Rahul Gandhi, destined to be the PM of dumb headed Indian junta, sacrifices his ambitions of becoming a PM and prefers to stay at ground level, I would be the first person to vote for him. If he really is what he showcases during his India tour (in which he is always accompanied by a reporter), I challenge him to step down from PM in waiting.

indira gandhi was in politics since age of 9 ..freedom struggle
u must be aware of banar sena
and rahul gandhi agar kuchh kar raha hai to bura kya hai
hamare esteemed political leader to wo bhi nahin karte
by the way good biased post
:)
but india ke pass congress ke siwa dusra option nahin hai
becoz BJP ki halat khujaye hue kutte wali ho gayi hai
no atal ji ..
BJP needs a states man like atal ji
Dear friend
Thanks for commenting
I did not say anything about the youth of Indira, but as I said that she wasn't the best party worker available to congress.Purchase recent outlook edition to know more about her. Everytime in a party like congress, seniors get the minister post while the royal blood gets the PM post. Story of MMS can be illustrated as well if you wish
Irony is that when rakhi sawant does all this, we say publicity stunt, but when rahul does all this, we know its a publicity stunt, but we indians are so much in habit of following a glorious leader, that we got overwhelmed and declared all his stunts to be true. ab baaki actresses koi publicity stunt nahi karti doesnt mean that rakhi is the best
Rahul said nothing to oppose OBC bill, if at all he is so open minded, why he didnt say a word?
politics right? he also knows how to play vote bank politics
Similarly, he was one of those who was expected to oppose raj thackrey, since he is so open minded and different, but he didnt since he knew that MNS would cut the vote bank of Shivsena and give congress votes, hence he remained silent
Let us ignore this. I would be the first person to vote for him if he picks these ground issues
1. vote bank politics
2. pseudo secularism
3. common civil code
4. bangladeshi infiltration
6. Religious conversions by missionaries
Though i know his character, just for your sake, I am waiting to see his reply
Recently he went to JNU/DU, and was asked by youths about his royal blood and why is he eligible to be PM...he started perspiring (read DJ)
BJP's conditions is no shock to me, people of India deserve this. Let them pray for the royal blood, that alone is their fate
One thing more
I didn't praise BJP anywhere, so how come u got to know about my allegiance?
It shows u were having some pre- fixed images while reading this post, and finally u got so over whelmed that u mentioned my post to be biased
while everytime i was just pointing out towards the preferential treatment and history, talking aabout these can make me a sachin pilot loyalist too? isn't it?
Dear Mayank ,
Posting the Chat language will make this blog filth [:)], so lets start the discourse in more parliamentary way .
Lets come to 'Res Geste' one by one
Your post criticize Mr. Nehru like anything but you forgot nascent India rode on the path of progress due to his efforts .
Creating the Planning commission of India, Nehru drew up the first Five-Year Plan in 1951, which charted the government's investments in industries and agriculture. Increasing business and income taxes, Nehru envisaged a mixed economy in which the government would manage strategic industries such as mining, electricity and heavy industries, serving public interest and a check to private enterprise. Nehru pursued land redistribution and launched programmes to build irrigation canals, dams and spread the use of fertilizers to increase agricultural production. He also pioneered a series of community development programs aimed at spreading diverse cottage industries and increasing efficiency into rural India. While encouraging the construction of large dams (which Nehru called the 'new temples of India'), irrigation works and the generation of hydroelectricity, Nehru also launched India's programme to harness nuclear energy.
Remember My dear Nehru ji was a visionary and Sardar Patel was statesman and I think Gandhi ji was much aware of conditions and needs of India than you or me .[:)]
Lets come to your objection on Indira Gandhi. I won't right much but yes emergency and its consequences were as well as are no where justified .
But my dear friend every regime be it of Sri Ram or of Ashoka or of Atal ji contained some abhorent tragedies .
Dear Alok
Once again thanks for your suggestion, I would try to take it positively
whatsoever you mentioned about Mr Nehru appeared to me as if you cut/paste them from wikipedia or some NCERT book. I suppose that they are all true, though this language was crafted by congress writers only
Doing blah blah...is it what you are appreciating, when you have are the first PM of a country like India - itna bhi nahi karoge to kya karoge?
Anyways, nearly all governments made big plans in our democracy, the question is how far were they successful?. Amethi and Raebareli are the traditional seats of congress, kindly go and visit those place, u will get the answer by your own
Basic things like - common man participation, honesty, stopping corruption were not looked after. The nehru you are supporting was a big supporter of License Raj. He was one of those who further carried the policy of pseudo secularism (i can quote 100 examples here)
His character can easily be verfied by googling for lady mountbatten, or u can purchase previous outlook edition to know more
India was having so many resources, as a PM if u would not start industries, then what else would u do? but the question is how many of them were world class? work culture in PSUs is well known to you
In short I mean to say, that great things were initiated only by him, which even Mulayam/mayawati have done, havent u read one entire page ads of their accomplishments ever? does that 1 page of work, make them the best?
No dear, and u yourself know that that all is fake and real help never reaches the common man. I am surprised u didn't think the same for Nehru. the trend of bureaucrats and help-never-reaching-common-man was started by congress only
Your admiration for 5 year plans made me laugh, perhaps you dont read good news at all
nearly all 5 year plans are good in documents but fail in reality,
I wish I had that business times edition with me to quote exact figures
Infact 5 year plans are now more of a formality, and none of them ever was even 80% successful
even the green revolution was a success because of a scientist's exemplary discovery (who died recently) but if at all it was suuccessful, why only punjab farmers are happy?
Lets come to your real objection,
No one is born intelligent or born mediocre so "Rahul Gandhi was a born introvert " itself an biased statement.
Einstein was failed in politechnic entrance exam , so "he failed in one of the subjects though" is other alibi .[:)]
"Surprisingly, I don’t know any of such detail about the daughters of Advani or Pawar" because they will never do what Rahul gandhi is doing now and yes media is always biased, come on dear dont forget "shining India". If you talk of Priyanka Vadra my dear she is away from elctronic as well as print media.
If you talk about being tougher then please visit the villages nearby your plant you will realize.
But being tougher is not the only criterian for PM and neither Congress nor Rahul projects himself as PM.
"No wonders why they gave so much coverage to his first speech in Lok Sabha as if Indian politics was waiting for his speech alone" remember miss Agatha sangma's oath [:)]
"But if Rahul makes such sacrifice, that is more of a premeditated move" yes this is because you can't become the CMD on your date of joining.
"dumb headed Indian junta" again the remarks shows frustraion against Rahul gandhi.
Dude alone a scientist cant do wonders unless supported by state and his product being comercialized and sent to market.
Dude how you forget IITs -The dream of Nehru .
Planning commission was not a failure initially , but now it is state who are not using the money judiciously .
Planning commission can do wonders .
best example is Montek singh's PPA which made NTPC so cash rich .
Good, now that you have come to real points
"Einstein was failed in politechnic entrance exam"
Would you make him polytechnic head then? similarly since he is shy, I wont make him PM, i am ready to make him MP. The real story behind the story that he is shy is that he wasnt a good orator at all. he used to stammer and had no confidence in him in childhood. that is why u will find that even today in his speeches, he is not fluent
"come on dear dont forget "shining India""
Shining India was an ad, anyone can publish it by giving money like congress did before 2009 general elections
"If you talk of Priyanka Vadra my dear she is away from elctronic as well as print media."
but when the time reaps for election, she sheds all such sanyaas and becomes media freak, she also ate sweet at dalit residence by the way (why she took a reporter there? if at all she is so reserved)
"But being tougher is not the only criterian for PM and neither Congress nor Rahul projects himself as PM"
did I said it is the only criterion? but a soft is not eligible, thank God you agreed over this (I suppose). If you say Rahul is not projected as PM, i give u in writing he is destined to be the PM. Wait till my prophecy comes true, unless another drama like that of sonia unfolds (she declined to be PM after Kalam asked her to do so, u can google for it, i hope its there in news as well)
"No wonders why they gave so much coverage to his first speech in Lok Sabha as if Indian politics was waiting for his speech alone"
I would request you to find his first speech at youtube, you would get your answer by itself. It wasnt worth mentioning at all. while agatha sangma's speech - was it there at first page? Atleast i didn't see while rahul's speech description was at first page
"But if Rahul makes such sacrifice, that is more of a premeditated move" yes this is because you can't become the CMD on your date of joining."
I suppose in your college days, you knew a lot about politics and professionalism, how come you are unable to see the politics behind it. Perhaps anything that rahul does makes you lose your senses. I would request you to look with open eyes. Rahul was away from India in his youth , all this exercise by him is a mere politics; otherwise next day when he becomes PM, he might ask - where is raebareli? in Bihar?
Give me the post of PM, I would make PSUs do wonders. I have that confidence in me, why nehru lacked in that
Actually, it is just an excuse
Lord Rama didn't made an excuse ever, he only gave good results. when you are the head, please dont make such excuses. it's typically indian excuse - made nowhere else
"Actually, it is just an excuse
Lord Rama didn't made an excuse ever, he only gave good results" even he made blunders , he set the example of women exploitation.
"Give me the post of PM, I would make PSUs do wonders. I have that confidence in me, why nehru lacked in that" Its not a sweet which is distributed by a charity to orphans .
You have to prove b4 claiming such things.
Actually we are not proving ourselves . If we cant tolerate one hour informative lecture during orientation and give the excuse of being boring , how we will handle the company .
It was our duty and we had not done it . Most of us including you was sleeping during orientation . As an employee we had not done our duty .
we have to prove at every point .
Again if you want a perfect ending make yourself perfect .You have to prove at everystep.
Mr Alok
I am humble enough to accept that I slept
But my dear friend, I am not the one who is going to compete for CMD. I have least interest in fattebaazi of NTPC, hence I found it boring. Since I slept, I would never run for the post of CMD, its as clear as crystal. But since i have amind, I can have plans to renovate ntpc, hence I gave such statement. I would run for CMD only if I am satisfied that I am fit for it. I would have to give exams, interviews which Rahul is not giving though he wishes to be the PM
But Rahul is already a MP and PM in waiting, he is going to lead us. I deserve full right to criticize him, no matter whatsoever I am in my personal life. (suppose I am bad, then I am not playing with the fate of people also)
In a debate, personal comment should never be made since it shows you have nothing left to say over the topic. I hope you would keep this in mind and stick to the topic only. You can comment over me if you like in some pravachan, though I would not attend it since I have so many doubts about you and the way you fulfil your responsibilities, but I would not make a personal comment. Its not ethical
Its a matter of deep shame that you spoke a blasphemy and criticized Lord Rama just to prove your point correct. I hope you admire the fact that your same religion only gave you this freedom, or you would have been beheaded by now if you were in some middle east country
Its quite clear that you havn't got the soul of Ramayana. Lord Rama sacrificed his relationship since it was the desire of junta. In fact he was reluctant, Goddess Sita only decided to leave him for the sake of good governance and setting up an example before junta. It is a perfect example of a perfect governance. A government which values the will of people.
Sacrilegious people like you would come and go but the sanctity of Ramayan would remain unharmed, its divinity is understood to pure minds only. Ramayana has cleared all acid tests and perhaps it is the only religion and religious text which can be telecast so openly and left for common junta to give their opinion. Other religions and their texts, when depicted on TV would appear havoc or sound ridiculous. Thats the beauty of Hinduism. Even the war epic Mahabharat was so easily depicted on TV, other religious wars were so more of a greedy act that their depiction would reveal the true character of other religions
Dude soul of ramayn is veru clr to me and atleast 10 analysis of ramanyn is with me in my home and I read 4 ,including of bharat bhushan agrwal , and kamal sahab .
And I am not a blind follower but I accept ramayan as symbolic epic.
This statement not came from me but during a discourse in Malviya Bhawan by Pt. Vishwambhar mishra ji .
Many people who are not biased accepts this.
My friend widened your thinking else you will become a hypocrite.
And Ramayana as well as Manas said that sita was not known when Laxman took her in the forest .
Ramayan padho ..sirf padho nahin socho bhi
And if you r talking about religious texts go thru "gita ji" ,there will be many things which will be crystal clear to you.
"Sleeping" context was not personal , it was just an example and dude I had seen many formal and informal debates , yes personal attacks and abuses are not allowed but no bars over references.
And if you consider UNFCC and PPA reports as fattebazi ,nothing left to say .
You once again took some great names. I want to listen to your views only or their views quoted directly. don't make this debate allegorical.
"Many people who are not biased accepts this"
What about the belief of billions of Hindus, are they foolish?
Why take great names, I just request you to watch Ramanand sagar's Ramayana once again(you can take it from me) or you can listen to some pravachan of morari bapu etc.
"My friend widened your thinking else you will become a hypocrite."
I should accept what you are saying or else I would become a hypocrite, what a statement. what should I accept dear, make clear comments and quotes instead of intimidating by great names and mentioning your whereabouts in BHU. This is a debate and you need to be precise
"And Ramayana as well as Manas said that sita was not known when Laxman took her in the forest ."
If you have read Manas, tell me by what pretext, he took her to forest else why would a maharani go alone in forest. If at all Sita was unknown, There is no dialogue in manas mentioning that laxman announced vanvaas to Sita in forest, though there was dialogue, in which he asked her not to leave but she left willingly
But another thing you should keep in mind is that Valmiki Ramayana is supposed to be more authentic and Ramanand sagar has followed it only. The fact that no religious group opposed is itself a proof that it is authentic to a fair extent
Brother Ram ji ..we call him bhagwan , but imagine when Sitaji was freed from Ravan why only 'SHE' gave 'agniparkisha' ? "Ram Nyay" could not explain this , justice demands both'ram' and 'sita' should enter in that fire.
It only indicates that Ram ji did not setup an ideal example as far as women rights are concerned .
" Yatra naryastu pujyante ramante tatra devta" is this the way?
Bro any decision could not satisfy all.
'Its a matter of deep shame that you spoke a blasphemy and criticized Lord Rama just to prove your point correct.' such statement can come from a fundamentalist and radical mind only.Thats why I asked you to read Gita ji .
Sanatan Dharm teaches us never to believe any thing blindly
Brother Alok
You now sound like a communist/Indian born British to me who take pride in mocking anything that is Hindu and thereafter they very bravely call themselves as open minded.
Anyways, though you didn't answer to my previous question, I am ready to make things clear to you. I hope you would make your mind broad
When ram was in exile and lost Sita, Sita lived in Lanka amongst rakshas while Ram was always with Laxman to keep an eye on him. Ram was with Brahmachari Hanuman and righteous sugreev, jamvant etc. so who is more likely to have become impure - Ram or Sita and who should give acid test? its a simple logic.
Now consider a larger frame of society. society lives on some norms, in those days women were expected to be faithful and homely while man was expected to be brave and hard working. It was a work division just like any other system. Now Sita was captured and kidnapped, why at all Ram had to fight for her. because it was his duty. now in kalyug, a man loyalist may question why a man fought and put his life at risk for a woman. people like you may call it a persecution by women. but i call it following a dharma. everyone has its own dharma defined, follow it
Lastly i ask you to kindly follow sanatan dharma and
1. respect elders
2. speak truth
3. apply logic
4. have faith and the list is long
Hi Mayank,
Great post - sharp thinking and crisp analysis. India will never become a developed country until kaangress netas are all thrown - wholesale - into the Bay of Bengal. Nehru and Indira have done more harm to Indian interests than good. Sonia Maino and Rahul are / will continue this trend.
Your comments about Nehru are spot on and accurate. Keep up the good work - you will always find a lot of apologists who will find Nehru to be an "exemplary" leader. Unfortunately, these people are either blind or choose to turn a blind eye to the writings on the wall known also as HISTORY.
Great post - once again !!
