And the great political drama starts..................

The air has started becoming smoky as the elections are on the door step for the worlds biggest democarcy.
For the past couple of days, I have been reading headlines of a leading Indian newspaper and to no surprise it is full of alligations and counter alligations from leading parties.
One of the today's headline goes as "Death to Afzal with 100 days if voted to power".
Yesterday's headlines said "Congress accuses BJP of dicisive politics".

Looking at the 'bhashan baazi' of our so called learned politicians, it appears that the whole Sas-Bahu saga has started again, on a different platform though.

Question is that why the parties are not having a memorandum to address the most trivial issues of our country....it looks like talking about poverty,population, infrastructure etc has become outdated. Concentration seems to be once again on the 'hot n steamy' topics which has nothing to do with common man's daily issues.

The answer to this 'why' lies in the mentality of public. Simply people would try to sell only those goods which public would like to buy. A common man is so busy that he never thinks beyond his current personal issues, attension goes only when there is some news having 'mirch masala' and thats why our netaji gives mirch masala to our bholi janta.

A common man has to rise and tell these Netas that we want these things to happen, we want improvement in these areas; rather than Netas cooking something for us and telling us what they are offering.
