India Crying

The reaction of the ruling party on the supreme court judgement on 2G spectrum allocation cancelling the 122 licences of various firms in a manner that caused a huge loss to the exchequer is simply deplorable and smacks of nothing but total insincerity to the country and its interests. Politicians themselves by and large are as it is shameless creatures without any principles and morals. When you have a trained advocate turned politician no words in any language can do justice to  his traits for these guys subscribe only to professional ethics i.e. to save their paymaster client even when he is known to be a wrong doer by highlighting some weakness of investigation or a hidden loophole in the law. They are just not bothered about moral ethics. This is the governance we are getting as citizens of this great country whose past glory of moral ethics is history now. We are ashamed to be the citizens of present era India.

Today we hear from the ruling party that a single individual is responsible for all the mess in 2G allocation and he is not responsible to any one in the government since no body else is responsible for his deeds. I am surprised that the collective wisdom of a government decided not to visualise the loss to the nation in this case and behaved simply like a clerk wedded to the rule book without seeing the financial impact of a decision. These are the guys clamouring to have more and more of discretions when it comes to favouring their near and dear ones, cronies and persons who can help them continuing in power through their discretionary powers, economic empowerment and all foul means.

Congress is forgetting the hue and cry raised by  its predecessors about 45 years back when the home minister of a state belonging to a different party challenged the supremacy of Congress chief minister and said that CM was no more than an equal colleague and advised CM not to meddle in the affairs of his ministry. Clearly a case of Different Rules for Different people i.e. rules always suiting the Congress party.
