Has twitter replaced the Parliament ?

We all have witnessed politicians fighting , quarreling and  throwing shoes at each other in the parliament but the current scenario of social networking site becoming a cause of relief for the Lok Sabha Speaker seems quite shocking . With eminent leaders of political parties shooting tweets against each other , twitter has now become the new parliament . The only difference between the old and the new parliament is that the latter has greater transparency while the former shows transparency only when its esteemed members are caught watching porn movies and barging into each others personal territories .



The Congress and the BJP entered into a series of words after the latter demanded the dismissal of the Uttarakhand government for not handling the disaster properly . Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tiwari in his bid to save Congress tweeted "H'onble LOP's have mindspace to critique govt proposals on CBI autonomy that are yet to be placed before SC but no time to visit Uttrakhand." You can accuse me of dragging the tweet further but i am helpless . I am unaware of the abbreviation LOP's and that is why i have decided to give the abbreviation my own meaning - 'Lok Sabha Opponents' . It might sound odd but it fits the bill accurately . I really appreciate Manish Tewari's strike to avenge his party's ignominy but little did he realize that making such statements requires accurate knowledge about the subject. Poor Manish didn't bother to heed to my advice and thus suffered shame at the hands of BJP leader Sushma Swaraj . Sushma Swaraj hit back at Manesh Tiwari saying that it was Home Minsiter Sushil Kumar Shinde who had asked 'dignitaries' to stay away as it would hamper rescue operations. Going a step further she even acknowledged her contribution by saying that it was she who made Congress realize the "scale of tragedy". 



While every tweet managed to make an impact , the one by the new media cell appointed by the Congress party stole the show . It said "@SushmaSwarajbjp Pyre of many Victims of this Natural Calamity still warm. First BJP tried to take credit of evacuating 15000 in a day! 1/2 Instead of helping in relief works in U'khand, don't try to use this calamity as a Political Opportunity! #NoPoliticsOverCalamity." No politics over calamity - a line mouthed by every political party and not followed by any . While Congress chose to play safe with "No politics over calamity" Sushma Swaraj launched an attack on the government "What has your state Government done ? Nothing. The living are starving. The dead are being robbed. And you are patting you. Those who cannot govern in crisis do not deserve to be in the Government even for a day" she tweeted angrily.Though Congress has my hearty sympathies i cannot deny the reason behind Shushma Swaraj's anger . The clip of sadhus robbing dead people uncovers a dangerous state of human emotion . People call it ruthlessness , devilish but has anybody thought what made them perform such an inhuman act ? Sushmaji When the living do not have anything to eat , they will obviously resort to robbery and what better than robbing a dead person . My words might sound harsh but so is the reality . As rescue operations come to an end , the tweeter battle commences .

Who's playing politics ? | Uttarakhand Flood

Image source : articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com

"There should be no politics in relief work " . Almost every politician has mouthed the aforementioned words on the mention of Uttarakhand tragedy but ironically BJP and Congress have left  no stones unturned in attacking each other . While the former is accusing the later for blasting its minister , the later has its own concern . 

 

While the defense forces are struggling to rescue the stranded pilgrims  inspite of the unfavorable conditions , politicians are busy playing their blame game . Gujrat Chief Minister carried out an ariel survey in the flood effected areas of the state and claims of having rescued 15,000 Gujuratis from Uttarakhand . Mr.Narendra Modi , we agree that you are the second Iron Man of India and can do anything but please sir , 15,000 is a lot . I agree that there is a lot of pressure on you to present yourself as an ideal BJP Prime ministerial candidate but such statements can only diminish your chances and undermine your value . We respect your feeling and also sympathise with your sympathies but cannot accept such blank lies . 

Photo-op ?

Now coming to ruling party Congress , Digvijay Singh said that unlike Narendra Modi , Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi had not gone to Uttarakhand for photo-op but to help them . What was Rahul Gandhi doing till now , enjoying his holiday when a daughter of our mother land was suffering . Ofcourse you would rue my question by mentioning feku and if i am not wrong you mentioned lady finger in one of your interviews to a national channel on the long list of lies Narendra Modi has . Sir Narendra Modi might have poor general knowledge but that doesn't specifies that Congress is clean and pure . Going by whatever you said , i really appreciate your request to other Chief Ministers to avoid visiting Uttarakhand as it would hamper the rescue work . I hope the request is not limited to NDA leaders . 

Jai Jawaan !

Our politicians will continue to be who they are but our defense force deserves a big salute . The recent crash of an Indian Air Force Helicopter engaged into rescue efforts in flood hit Uttarakhand did not deter our Indian Force to resume their activities . While our jawans continue fighting for our people , politicians are busy debating on news channels .

Modi and his 'Fundas'

Time and again i am asked about Narendra Modi and Gujrat . I usually describe both of them in a single term which often confuse people . I won't be wrong if i say that Narendra Modi  would be a nobody without Gujarat. Literally , they are like a cordial couple who go hand in hand helping each other in times of need .

Do i hate Modi or in simple words am i an Anti-Modi ? Perhaps yes . I am a huge fan of Justice Katju and no wonder i am against him but at  the same time i can't ignore Modi or his developmental schemes . Justice Katju's article on Modi  tells the sheer reality of Gujarat  "Should the malnourished of Gujarat eat roads , electricity and factories created by Modi ?"  Well , he might be blamed for being outspoken or accused of suffering from 'foot in mouth disease' but his words cannot be shunned only to please a particular party . As  the Chairman of the "Press Council Of India" he is entitled to speak his mind.

Why Anti-Modi ?

Modi has enough supporters to  get cast for the prime ministerial post . People hold grudge against him for various reasons but the Godhra riots tops the list . Modi , a man of words cannot be taken down easily forcing people to resort to the aforementioned riots to get his heart racing yet there have been instances when he has opened his mouth accusing the neighboring states , than under Congress for denying any kind of help . His Hindutwa image or his nonchalant reaction when asked about Godhra riots has done very little to tarnish his image . His sudden walkout from an interview continues to do rounds and so called "Anti-Modi's " are more than happy to recall it . 

 

2014 elections and RSS

One cannot ignore his excellency with words . Making his pitch for the 2014 Lok Sabha Elections , he said 'It isn't in Congress's blood to take country forward' but was quick to add that "Pranab Mukherjee would have made a better PM" . His obsession with RSS is well known yet he refuses to acknowledge their relationship . The ‘Panchjanya’ statement by Kamal Sandesh literally brought their relationship under strain yet Modi managed to slip away. Their promise to stand by each other is what makes their relationship special .

Second Iron Man

Often deemed to be the "second Iron Man Of India" he , i agree , has the capability of taking Gujrat ahead but at the same time i cannot ignore the fact that he was actually involved in the Godhra massacre . Is Sanjeev Bhat wrong ?  Journalists who have witnessed the heinous incident wrong ? I am not sure . Well , he might be vindictive but at the same time he is a headstrong man . A man who was a  nobody twelve years back is now the most powerful man of India and as they say with 'great power comes greater responsibility'.
