‘Everything looks yellow to the jaundiced eye’
The above idiom specially holds true for the liberal elites of Delhi. This unique tribe, comprising of middleman, pseudo-seculars, deal breakers, had tumultuous rough ride for last four years . This shrinking, self obsessed and powerful tribe, has never had so bad and the outpouring of filth against govt stands testimony, to the damage inflicted on their reputation and devaluation of their grip on corridors of power. They had been haunted by an imaginary ghost of Modi-RSS and badly in need of their own renaissance. This ghost has troubled this blood sucking tribe for last four years, and they are hoping that exorcism(election 2019) will finally bear fruit and bring some relief.
Since 2014, in India , the ghost of Modi is detected everywhere, a soar spot for liberals an outlandish person who doesn’t bow to the diktats of lutyen club. In the eyes of our ‘professional seculars’ the exorcising of the evil spirit from their lives is now, just a few months away. Likewise, the bad, communal people who don’t share the prescribed “idea of India” will be cut to size and put at their respective places. Through innuendos, they have started the intimidation propaganda, all the ‘fanatics’(read Bhakts) who were out there, butchering innocent minorities, media celebrities, urban naxals on social media won’t be spared either.
George Orwell, speaking of liberal journalists, wrote in the Preface to his Animal Farm:“One cannot expect intelligent criticism or even, in many cases, plain honesty from liberal writers and journalists who are under no direct pressure to falsify their own opinions.”
Sections of the privileged elites have been engulfed by fear psychosis once Modi took the reins in his hand and not wrongly, they were stripped of their privileges that they so shrewdly held for decades by sucking to the corridors of power. Like the good ‘old days’ when imaginary ‘foreign hand’ takes the blame for governance failure, today the narrative is spun and the extremely helpful ‘foreign hand’ of the bygone era has been replaced by ‘Modi-RSS combine for anything that goes wrong in our country.
Ranging from Chinese incursions to terrorist attack not to forget Kashmir conundrum, the party of clown along with bootlickers lutyen club, waste no time in sighting the ghost of Modi-RSS and pinning the blame. Meanwhile, the professional seculars take the lead and bifurcate any travesity to search for communal footprint.
Lies, stupidity and deception are the hallmarks of politics today. It’s an ever growing enterprise that has catapulted many to the seats of power. People have lied through their teeth to further their political carrier and unfortunately, it pays handsomely. It is no surprise thus, this time tested formula (award wapsi, intolerance, Church attacks, minorities under attack are some of the many campaigns endorsed and supported by this incestuous club) is again being employed to see the Modi-RSS ghost in Rafale aircraft deal.
Just before every state election in the last few years, new controversies are stage managed and are swiftly brushed aside after it serves its purpose. In the similar fashion, Rafale aircraft and winking eye in Parliament are intertwined. It was a precursor to the nasty campaign that is to follow. No amount of clarification will satisfy Congress, who wants people to see the same ghost behind the deal as the elections are on the horizon. How much success will Congress attain in convincing the electorate, only time will tell, but the Congress along with corrupt Lutyens club are confident.
