Ufffff ...
I cannot handle the excessive on parade. Bro love is all well and good, but right now there is an overload of fake political going on. Sworn adversaries are hugging, embracing, cuddling, even kissing in public! PDA is a bit much.
Especially when the actors are sub-standard. Even our movie stars show more restraint when they greet rivals and generously distribute to enemies. The new-found, forced bonhomie on parade at the swearing-in of Cabinet ministers, please.
.. nobody’s buying into the #WeToo movement.
Three PMs for the price of one? A shaky political ? No, thank you. Just as the strident #MeToo movement collapsed even before it took off in India, this one seems equally doomed. Fortunately, the election results proved one thing unequivocally: our valuable votes spoke louder than words.
We won! The fun is about to begin. Fasten your seat belts, as the haggling, jockeying and sulking moves from civilised to savage. There are far too many big egotists who have been left out in the cold.
And they ain’t keeping mum. Bruised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s snub, mini-revolts are being hatched as rejected lick their wounds and plot away. Citizens, on the other hand, are relieved to note there are no major changes in important Cabinet portfolios.
There is comfort in continuity. It’s far safer to deal with known players than novices. Nirmala Sitharaman’s sari wardrobe will be upgraded yet again, as she presents the all-important Budget next month.
Let’s han.
