Koda Episode - Aberration or Norm?

I think we as Indians should be ashamed to call ours a civilized society. There is hardly anything civil about the nature of how these criminal, absolute inhuman rogues get away. In the case of Koda and Ekka as this blogs point out, the two national parties are directly involved breathing life into who eventually turned out to be scumbags. I am not trying to accuse the leaders of these parties but if they have an ounce of spinal fluid left in their system, they would bring these morons to justice in the quickest possible way and distribute all their wealth to protecting the wealth of the state. To hear each day a statement like Rich State, Poor people have to be like a Thorn in the eye.

While it is good to hear speeches, it is time the President does something rather than remain a 'rubber stamp'. I often think whether that post has any use at all. While Manmohan Singh seems a nice man, it takes someone with far more audacity to wipe out the menace once for all.

When we lift are MLA and MP's to safety for purely selfish power grabbing reasons, we are sacrificing the core reason why we exist as humans. It wouldn't be far fetched to say that these leaders are leading us to oblivion and creating more maosits every damn day. With folks like Koda minting at a startling official figure of 4000 crores, all tribals in Jharkand are a Maoist waiting to happen.

Although anecdotal, each trip I've heard stories about how Chandrababu Naidu amassed 1000's of crores, same is the case with late YSR and his son Jagan, Venkaiah Naidu and his brethren, same in Bombay, similar with the 'mining' brothers in Bangalore.

I cannot imagine that YSR and co got away (during recent elections) declaring assets of 50 lakhs as their entire property. How can one for a minute even think of making that document public and absolve the scrutiny that may come with? How dumb can they expect the citizens to get? And, for that matter, the entire legal system. Perhaps, it is for this reason. When the CJI of India and his team can claim their entire earnings are about 40-50 lakhs, anything is possible.

It is certainly not an aberration but a norm. We do live in times where for a few cents more, everyone of these buggers will sell darn anything, including the sovereignty of the country. Folks like Koda and Ekka would have no clue what that would mean...
