Democracy Martyred in Pakistan

After the killing of Pakistani leader Benezir Bhutto, she was venerated as democracies martyr. But her will has martyred democracy itself. It is sad that in the Indian subcontinent political leadership has been taken as dynastic right to rule the nation. It is true about Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, as it is about Bhutto's in Pakistan, and there will be no different approach in Bangladesh or Nepal which is struggling for the democracy.

In India, we have hope at least in some opposition parties like BJP and Communists, but more or less all the parties play the same game of dynastic rules. Whether it is Mulayam Singh of Samajwadi party or Laloo of RJD. Even the small parties which has presence in states and limited to the states trade the same path. Take the example of Shivsena where Thakare's or in NCP the Pawar's and Sule's favor dynastic fashion of democracy(?). In south India, Karnataka's Janta Dal (S) of Devegauda belongs to his son Kumaraswami. Tamilnadu's DMK fights within the family for reins.

Modi wins Gujarat again

'Jitega Gujarat' was the slogan for Gujarat elections by BJP, and indeed Gujarat wins. There wasn't any opposition to BJP and Modi in Gujarat. As usual congress played minority politics and demography doesn't support it when hindus get united and unfortunately for the congress that rare thing happened again in Gujarat.

Despite modi haters from BJP itself, M/s. Keshubhai and Suresh Mehta couldn't do any damage to BJP votebank in Gujarat. The efforts taken by Tehelka to blame Modi for the riots post Godhra in fact helped him win many votes. So sad for the english media, professed by JNU commie generation which used every way including influencing analysis of exit polls, to get some psychological relief of beating an unbeatable foo.

What these people will learn from this? nothing. Because their minds are closed. They don't understand the real issues and are living in utopia of secularism.

Pravin Mahajan get life sentence

Law has taken its course and in due course it will take its turns also, as supreme court is the destination for all rich and frivolous. But for the moment Pravin Mahajan, the killer brother of Late Promod Mahajan has got life sentence for killing his own brother.

It will be difficult to understand why he had killed his own brother who was like father figure to him over the years. All that he had was given by Pramod, and he would have certainly benefited from Pramod's successfull political career. If the logic doesn't work here then Pravin has some psychological problems.

Let's see something gets revealed in due course of time.
