Tamil Nadu's Political Thriller

Tamil Nadu's Political Thriller

As expected split in the ruling AIADMK in Tamil Nadu is widely visible after the death of J.Jayalalithaa who was the undisputed leader of the masses and also in the party. But as happened in the case of regional parties where there is only a single mass appealing leader leading the political party split was unavoidable as every leader try to taste the slice of power voided by that leader's absence. In this case Sasikala popularly known as Chinamma (Mother's sister) and O. Paneerselvam who was Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu in various occasions in absence of Jayalalithaa are fighting over her legacy in the party and the government. 

O. Paneerselvam was leading the government as Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and Sasikala was leading the AIADMK but it was decided by party legislature that there should be only one power center for which they elected Sasikala as chief minister of the state. Paneerselvam who resigned from the CM post after this decision later claimed that he was pressurized to do so by people of Sasikala group and he will remain the CM unless decided differently by the governor which triggered the plot of this political thriller in the state. Some believed DMK the largest opposition party of TN was behind this controversy while many others believed that central government is trying to destabilize the state government to impose President's rule as it did in the state of Arunanchal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Now its up to the governor to check the claims of both the leaders of support of MLAs and then give a nod to any one of them to prove majority in the assembly and form the government. Governor's delay in judgement and sending reports to center government for further decision also raising doubts of some conspiracy. Coming of Jayalalithaa's niece Deepa in this drama to target Sasikala also adding to the drama of this thriller.

I have said earlier that it happens in regional parties when the popular leader died or resigned from the active politics that people inside the party fought for the claim of his/her legacy. When Bal Thackerey leaved the active politics and made his son the president of the Shiv Sena in Maharashtra his nephew Raj Thackerey split from the party to form another party Maharashtra Navnirman Sena which claimed to be the true bearer of Bal Thackerey's ideals. Somewhat similar kind of power tussle also witnessed between Akhilesh Yadav and Shivpal Yadav in Samajwadi Party ,UP to claim Mulayam's heritage. Congress, BJP, AAP and many other parties saw such splits in the name of serving the people arguing that party has deviated from its original path. 

Like in Tamil Nadu every party or state witnessed such political thriller's in name of public will while actually it is for power control. I only hope whatever happen in Tamil Nadu has betterment of people store in it. Till next post. God Bless Tamil Nadu. 

Character Dheela Hai

Character Dheela Hai

V. Shanmuganathan resigned yesterday i.e on 26th January 2017 from the post of Governor of Meghalaya and Arunanchal Pradesh (having additional charge of AP state) after staff of Raj Bhavan complained to President and Prime Minister of his indecent behavior and reducing his office to the ladies only club. He was in this position for being a loyal RSS and BJP activist that RSS whose cadres prefers to remain unmarried in order to their promise of serving the nation and society. What an irony? 

The post of governor which is already useless and is there for political benefits of the veterans of ruling party. This post act as retirement plan for the aged politicians and often interfere with functioning of non-ruling party state governments on command of the ruling central government who has appointed him. This post serves as a political tool which was often accused by non-ruling party state chief ministers as agents of the central government. The post which should be mark of dignity have lost its stature in recent years and this behavior of V. Shanmugunathan has further demean the grace of this post. 

The Raj Bhawan of Meghalaya staff has also accused him of sexual offences. They said that he has compromised the security of the Raj Bhawan by giving some young ladies free access to his bedroom anytime of the day. By preferring only ladies staff he has displayed his vulgar intentions only. It is evident that government has pressurized him to resign after such complaints but such act of indiscipline should also be punished to set an example for future governors. Not only this behavior but acts like snooping of elected government of the state, hindering in government's functioning and trying to impose his party's agenda in the state should also be prohibited and punished as it is an unconstitutional and undignified act. 

Removal of V. Shanmuganathan give the benefits of this post to another veteran loyalist of the BJP and RSS and will settle the goals of their old age. Unless this post remains. God Bless India. 

Vyapam Scam

Vyapam Scam

Madhya Pradesh's Vyapam scam is again in News after one more death of the person related to the MP Vyavsayik Pariksha Mandal(Vyapam) which took the toll to 44. The mysterious deaths of accused and witnesses is pointing towards a bigger conspiracy and indicating the involvement of bigger names in the scam. The fire of this scam is also touching the office of Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Shivraj Singh Chauhan who is not acting promptly in the investigation.

The biggest recruitment scam in examinations including pre-medical entrance test and government jobs including teachers,food inspectors, sub inspectors,police constables ,etcetera  hints at involvement of Rashtriya Swamswvak Sangh (RSS) functionaries along with the governor and CM. The RSS was trying to post the members adhered to their ideology in the important government department posts thus to impart and spread their orthodox and fragmenting teachings in the masses. The majoritarianism thinking of RSS was previously responsible for partition of India ( along with Muslim's League) and riots and hate crimes after Independence of the country. This scam thus is a threat to internal security and democracy of the country.

The scam is more dangerous because the doctors,engineers and even police constables were inducted by cheating and fraud and now the deaths of many accused and witnesses have threatened the emergence of truth in the public domain. Some other witnesses also facing death threats and are either living in fear with police protection in MP or have escaped in other cities for the fear of their life. 

Why MP chief minister is not recommending CBI (Central Bureau Of Investigation) probe in the scam? Why SIT was formed only after High Courts interference? Why the mysterious deaths of accused and witnesses was labeled as normal by the state government? Why the party which promises corruption free governance is defending its CM and not demanding CBI inquiry? All the questions must be answered before someone else related to Vyapam fall prey to death.
