Moral volcano or Renounce t-tsunami

Moral volcano or Renounce t-tsunami

When Sonia resigned, I recalled in my memory about dreaded decoit Phoolan Devi, who later became an MP, decided to surrender. Surrendering of Raja Bhaiyya of U,P. also zoomed in front of my eyes. Her resignation is another indication of her fool proof willing to hold on the moral volcano or renounce t-tsunami.

Soon after she announced her decision to resign as an MP and chairperson of the National Advisory Council (NAC) Thursday, hundreds of supporters thronged the Congress headquarters like flocks of sheep and herds of cattle are imbued with a different spirit. All of them are declaring: 'let our public life be Soniaised, Rahulised, and Priyankaised with a fervent patriotism for Italy and Quaottrocchi. Love for Sonia must so fill the heart that all else should appear as of little moment by its side. Let us rejoice at every opportunity of sacrifice for Sonia ‘. The scenes were witnessed nearly two years ago when Gandhi, the chairperson of the country's ruling coalition, had refused to become prime minister after leading the Congress to a decisive win in the general election.

Sonia did not take Indian citizenship for 15 years!! Escaped from India during the war and during emergency. She is here to rob, for giving her Italian boy friend Quattrochi his money back. Why Natwar Singh became scapegoat to save Sonia Gandhi? Every one including Media said KGB spy Sonia Gandhi involved in Oil for Food Program (OFP) scandal after Bofors. Did she resign for that?

Soniaji's second Renounce!
Dr. Manmohan Singh hails Sonia, calls her tallest leader!! If she was so tall a leader, why didn’t she resign immediately when Jaya Bachan was removed from her post? In fact that is Jaya Bachchan who kicked her out. His cabinet minister Mani Shankar Aiyar said on CNBC, ‘'Mrs Sonia Gandhi is a queen and she has appointed Dr Singh to do some governmental work.' Now, if this is how the Congress party is going to demolish the office of prime minister, then Dr Singh will have a problem with governance" (email dt. 28-5-04 circulated by Arindam Banerji). Manmohan is merely her CEO, a trustee of 10 Janpath. When she renounced PM post, I read an editorial, "Right Choice, Baby" (a line coined for Pepsi, and used here for Manmohan Singh).

‘Sonia: A bit of a Mahatma’- Times of India!!
In this sad and disgraceful situation, please allow me to remind Jaypraksh movement to remove Indira’s emergency. This reminder is especially for Mulayam, Lalu, Amar and a like Raj Babbar (not Babbar khalsa). Mahatma Gandhi said: 'Bad self government is better than alien good government'. Dr Manmohan Singh government has reversed this position. Today the collective motto of the UPA government is that a foreign-led secular government is better than a local /national /saffronised self-government! When Sonia wears a ‘tika’ on her forehead it becomes a symbol of truly international secularism. But when Uma Bharati wears saffron then she becomes a lurid symbol of aggressive Hindu fundamentalism!

Please find out the news clipping of Dr. Singh’s speech given in the UK Oxford University at the time of getting honorary doctorate degree. White haired leaders like Natwar, Manmohan, Arjun are licking Sonia Maino’s feet. They all feel orphaned. They are the real culprits, the criminals and the decoits. Is Congress zero without Sonia?

‘Nuen so choovay kha k billi haj ko chelli’
When Jaiprakash Narayan and Mahatma Gandhi renounced power, they did not endorse an arrangement to institutionalize themselves as the power behind the throne. Has super PM Sonia Gandhi given up power? She has not; one-step more she has opted for power and glory without the headaches of prime ministership. This is a ploy to gain political mileage to flow sympathy wave in the upcoming Assembly elections.

'Resignation for Profit'
When news went to press about the President seeking certain clarifications, Sonia heard her inner voice to renounce. Wbefore this, when she was made Congress President in 1991 after Rajiv Gandhi's death, she refused - only to come back with greater vigour. Now she is playing third latest drama of resignation renounce. To day’s ‘Financial Express’ published, “The danger is, the entire drama will cloud the issue thrown up by Wednesday’s deplorable proroguing of Parliament: whether legislators can hold offices of profit and if so, the checks and balances needed. It will also push into the background the question of whether the President Abdul Kalam consulted the government on the reference to the Election Commission in the original Jaya Bachchan office-for-profit charge and on its subsequent advice. His powers are only supposed to be used on ministerial advice. So did he or did not seek such advice? Mrs Gandhi’s resignation answers none of these far more fundamental questions”

Does Sonia believe she can fool the nation into believing that her resignation drama is not for political profiteering as in the past her government's support in the dismissal of Bihar Assembly was for political gain?

You may recall the famous Mark Antony quotation from Shakespeare's Julius Ceaser, "You all did see on the Lupercal I thrice gave him (Ceaser) a kingly crown which he did thrice refuse. Was this ambition"?
