Enough of this Idealism, already!
For past 15 years, I have seen BJP growing as a political party. I have seen them playing the voting game, games to harnass the majority (pandering to majority Hindu sentiment, ala Ayodhya) and also trying to become more inclusive of minority, by shedding its pro-brahminical stance, etc. Last week, I have seen them actually becoming one among the dirty, when they were all too ready to implicate/incriminate Natwar singh and current congress party based on UN's Volker report.
Voila, today Natwar is no longer our foriegn minister. Volker's report has implicated more than 2200 people (and literally hundreds of organizations all over the world) in his report, and yet only Indian monkeys have decided to dance to the shim(sham) music and I blame BJP to be wholesole reason for this ruccus. Being power hungry is one thing and being dirty about it is another. I dont think any government should resign based on this report Remember BJP making claims last year that the newly installed congress govt gonna cease its power in dec 2004. I dont think there was any kind of unnatural clairvoyance when they 'predicted' that. I think they were hoping that Volkar report is gonna be out by then and that they can hold Cong govt responsible based on some UN report. With the kind of credibility carried by either UN or US investigations, one should never hurry to judge.
Let us hear out again - UN is a failed body, UN is a sham and waste of everybody's time and effort. It is a corrupt machine looting all the money only by creating imaginary schemes to be implemented in remote (and I cant stress this word enough) corners of the world.
India, wake up and hear to your heart. Dont punish yourself; be rational about it. I was the one who defended George Fernandes during the coffin-gate scandal and this is the time I want to defend Natwar Singh. I dont like him and I think he is inefficient, maybe so, but dont remove him until VOlkar provides STRONG EVIDENCE.
Here is B.Raman's account as to why Natwar shouldnt be removed.
