Politics over Indo-US Nuclear Deal: Mockery of Indian Democracy

Dear Indian voters, you are invited to see this big drama ” Indian -American Nuclear deal”.  Sorry, you have no control on this mockery of democracy. You have already played your part by choosing your representatives in Parliament and now you are just a helpless viewer and remember that you can not walk out or switch channels. 

Don’t like it….. No problem……you should be happy that you are still enjoying democracy. Do you really deserve it? Think hard about it. When we cast our votes on the basis of cast, creed, religion and region, we decide this fate for ourselves well in advance.

Anyway, it is a different topic. We are here to discuss about the great actors in the drama.

In fact, Congress is successful on one front by creating this crisis. Nobody is talking about the inflation at this moment and everybody wants to see if this deal goes through or not. Even if Congress loose confidence motion in parliament, they can project (or market) themselves as martyrs for national cause. People may find it sympathetic and they might forget the hardships they faced for last 4 years. This is what Congress may be thinking at this moment.

 

I still believe in the honesty of PM Manmohan Singh and I think that he is the person who is responsible for taking such tough stands about this deal. There were news that he threatened to resign if this deal does not go through. He is the person who is responsible for economical reforms in 1992 and I am sure that this deal will also brings results like the economical reforms. ( Yesterday, I read a ridiculous feature in TOI front page that Rahul Gandhi was the invisible hand behind the exceptional boldness PM displayed for this deal. OK, you want to market Rahul Gandhi as a great leader, that’s fine but give PM  the credit he deserves.  You never know if you read in future that Rahul Gandhi had invisible hand behind the 1992 economical reforms.)

I can not write anything about left parties because I do not understand them. I wonder that these so called socialist never thought about taking back their support from Congress when the price of vegetables, rice, wheat and other food touched sky. Why this Nuclear deal is so important for them? I give up.

I just read a feature about Great Amar Singh. The title was “Nothing is impossible for Singh”. It was written in the feature how he shared a bathroom with his seven family members and now he has bathroom in every room in his plush home at Greater Kailash.  Obviously a great achievement but I wonder what connection it has with Nuclear deal!Is this some kind of marketing tactics? And seriously what he, Mulayam Singh or Samajwadi party has done so great by promise of support to the government? We all know that Mayawati defeated  and almost finished her opponents (Congress, BJP and SP ) in UP and she is there to stay. Mulayam Singh who is desperately looking for a political oxygen grabbed this offer of supporting the government when Left gave them this opportunity. They even forgot about the insult they faced four years ago when Amar Singh went for a dinner uninvited.

And now when they joined hands with congress, Amar Singh is advocating the MTN deal for his friend Anil Ambani. He is criticizing Mukesh Ambani and wants PM to to intervene in the fight of two brothers. So, this is what he wants in return for supporting the “Indian- American Nuclear deal” ? Pathetic……

Mayawati is already facing the CBI heat just after the meeting between Amar Singh and Sonia Gandhi. I am ashamed to be a part of this democracy where top leaders play such games to retain in power. What example they are setting for the coming generations? And what have they learned from the leaders like Gandhi ( not Sonia, Rahul or Priyanka), Nehru, JP and Shashtri? Nothing.

BJP’s prime minister candidate L K Advani is also opposing the deal. He says that he would approve the deal with some changes if BJP comes to the power in next election. Everybody knows that he is opposing this deal in parliament because he wants this government to loose. He would have approved the same deal without any changes if he was in the power but this is what called the political game. Leader’s selfishness and ambitions always come above the interest of country. No matter what.

I appreciate US president candidate Obama who dares to give this statement that he will accept the Nuclear deal as it is if comes in the power. It doesn’t matter for him if is he is a democrat not republic.
