few day back everyone was shocked to hear and watch what happened at a pub in mangalore..Some custodians of indian culture decided that best way to stop the flood is to beat & molest girls who obviously didn't know the great indian tradition for appeasing goons..
I was heartened to read catagorical condemnation from political leaders from all hues.
Now though it's time for them to do their own bit for culture. with chief ministers of rajasthan and Karnataka deciding to arrest "pub culture" one wonders why the poor sena men were arrested and pooh-poohed.
apparently they found it unpalatable that a small time goonda should hog all the lime-light.
while it is perfectly acceptable for our CMs to have rapes and murders and molstations and mujras desi style, they can not women enjoying themselves by their own free will, and from their own tax-paid money, a tax which is supposed to pay the government for citizen's safety among other things..
Why do our polititians seem to support all the wrong causes? be it communal rhetoric, mafias coming to politics, Quota sytem, N-Deal, Cash for vote brand leaders, Consipacy theorists such as Mr. Antuley, the retrogressive,sick ideology of moral policing, there is always one usual suspect- over beloved NETAJI..
We might speculate on reasons and go on but it doesn't help anything, people who should do these, the NETA and the voters, they have their petty interests to take care of.. for the voter. recollect a couplet-
sipahi chor hai, jo chor tha sipahi hai, yeh khel gaon ke bachho me ab bhi chalta hai,
isi liye main andheron se kuchh nahi kehta-ke har gunah ujaalon ke ghar me palta hai..

maybe it is time we take the 'jagore campaign' seriously.
the couplet is beautiful.
