An Emerging Superpower

Where the intellectual, but non voting, citizens criticized their few educated, dynamic leaders

While the un-employed looked for non issues to keep themselves occupied

Mumbai was attacked

Lost daredevils in the first few hours

Its pride is compromised

Icons burn

Hundreds die

The home minister wastes the night while his suit is ironed

• “They had left by the time I had reached”when asked about the identities of the terrorists at CST & Cama hospital.

• He got away with a resignation…..

Chief Minister Vilas Rao Deshmukh

• I am in Kerala, tryingto reach Mumbai : Four hours after the crisis is on TV

• Refuses to Resign

Heros enter

The media compete to get each bit of news first, spread rumors, compromise operational

details by airing them for … the terrorists

Some are happy it’s over…

Rajiv Gandhi era rhetoric continues: “Hume dekhna hai, Hum dekh rahe

hain, Hum dekhte rahenge”

Opposition does what it is best at : OPPOSE EVERYTHING

Power hungry lose out on prime time TV

Daughter of the Nation !• “My grandmother

would have done things differently”

• Nobody asked : “What stopped her mother ?”

R R Patil, Dy CM Maharashtra• Bade shaharon mein

aise ek adh hadse hote rahte hain. Woh 5000 logon ko marne aye the lekin humne kitna kum nuksan hone diya

- &*#@ tu kiya kya ?

-FINALLY RESIGNS

Citizens conduct meaningless candle marches & send angry

SMSs

• Page 3 celebrities talked about the immense damage to the iconic Taj heritage building.

• “How sad it was to lose the chef who made those wonderful pizzas.”

• None of them knew the exact death toll at the Railway station firing… Do you know?

The non voting intelligentsia found each possible future leader lacking for some

reason or the other

So now, do you want your children to curse you?

• For doing nothing.• You have the option to make a difference to stand up

and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH – we will change this system

• You can decide that the educated will administer, while the army will bring law & order to this chaos.

Why do you always wait for somebody else to do things, while you just rant and rave?
