Intelligentsia’s ‘HISTORIC DECISION’ of Oct 2013, and ‘HONEST’ money making in politics

Noted columnist Vir Sanghvi has brought good news for Narendra Modi’s supporters in his article in today’s Hindustan Times (link given below). The very first para will make the hearts of Modi supporters dance with joy. The para reads: “When the history of this period of Indian politics is written, October 2013 will be remembered as the month when the intelligentsia and the commentariat decided that it was inevitable that Narendra Modi would become the next prime minister.”

Though Sanghvi has predicted Modi’s ascension to the PM chair, the latter’s supporters instead of thanking Sanghvi have criticized him left and right in the comments below his article on the HT website. The reason is they consider him and some other journalists as Congress spokesmen.  And, as usual the Ganhdis and poor Manmohan Singh also faced a lot of flak in these comments. Just comments of two bloggers as samples:

·         I have every doubt that Muck Mute Singh's brain transplantation has been secretly done to make him remote operated & programmable by his operators.

·         I'd vote Modi only if he promises to put Nehru-Gandhi clan, current UPA cabinet with PM in jail forever.

   

Now let me tell you about ‘honest’ money making in politics. According to an article in The Week (Nov 10, 2013), the assets of Chhatisgarh Chief Minister and some of his ministers have grown six fold since the last Assembly elections, that is, in just five years. Also, the ‘poorest’ candidate in the last elections with declared assets of Rs 20 lakh, today owns assets worth Rs 1 crore 4 lakh. I think Chhatisgarh ministers can help eradicate corruption from India if they come out with a ‘how to’ book on fast money making in politics ‘honestly’. I am sure after reading this book all Indian politicians as well as the masses will be able to make money fast without indulging in corruption.
