Theatre of absurd

The theatre of absurd continues...............


Shibu Soren of Jharkhand Mukthi Morcha took over as Chief Minister 4 months back when he was not a MLA. He lost the bye election by 8500 votes two days back. He has to get elected within 6 months of becoming CM. Instead of resigning graciously, accepting people's verdict, he clings on to the Chair trying to find out how he can continue. Well, anything can happen in Jharkhand, knowing the history of the State where an Independant was once made the CM. (What surprises me is how Shibu Soren lost. Any CM who cant win a bye election in a corrupt state like Jharkhand must be the biggest idiot and SS is a smart cookie, apart from being a master of Suitcase politics for which he was convicted (he was, but then got out)


Sanjay Dutt, who should have been in jail for criminal activities but for our stupid judiciary, is planning to contest the next Lok Sabha election on a Samajwadi Party ticket from UP. And dont be surprised if he is elected also (Remember Navjodh Sidhu?). Now we know why you and me wont be MPs, because we dont have the guts to kill and maime.


The Asatyam saga continues. Dont be surprised, in a day or two, Ramalinga Raju complains of a heart attack and gets himself admitted to one of the top private hospitals in AP. About a month back, K S Raju of Nagarjuna Finance was arrested. Ramalinga Raju met YSR, CM of AP and pleaded on his behalf. And presto, within 2 days Raju of NF got admitted complaining of Cardiac problems and remains in the hospital. There is a precedence............. Dont be surprised if Ramalinga Raju floats a political party and becomes the CM of AP one day. Stranger things have happened in our country.
