Of twists and turns in Sandal Land...

Twenty20!!!

Wickets tumbling, sixes flying of the bat, fours racing to the fence, 3 Hrs of non stop entertainment... India Victorious!!!

If this is what you expected in this column sorry, I'm speaking of the political turmoil in sandal land.

Last time round, when I wrote my previous blog I was under the impression that politics was thru with all the surprises it could dish out; but that was a Big NO!!

Look at what has happened over the last month and a half or so, even you will understand this is just power politics... A few regional news channels have gone to the extent of saying this is remarriage or some such things.

The best part is all the "elected idiots" (Yes I'm bold enough to call them that) have given in writing signed that they agree to offer unconditional support first and then put 12 points condition (again signed by all) and then say we don't support (this too has been signed) well God knows whats next.

Well for all I know who knows what will happen next & who will be next CM? If and when he becomes one is he worthy of being a CM? Or worse will there be a CM?

From a Auto-wala to vegetable vendor everyone is bored and disgusted with this dirty politics going on.

The local leader of the "Saffron Army", a guy who takes instantaneous decisions & then rues them so maybe he has gone a bit too far this time to even rue. If they had not accepted the re-alliance with "Secular party" then maybe they would have got a pity vote but now its just gone down the drain.

For all I know as I'm writing this post here sitting at home, the dirty power game might have taken yet another turn & twist who knows?

If the state affairs are to be run as per the whims and fancies of a fickle minded satrap, who calls himself son-of-the-soil, is it worthy of having him around? Isn't it time we got down to the drawing board?

but just not yet!! not yet!
