While addressing the cadets of NCC last Sunday , Shri
Modiji said :
“ People used to believe that the rich and powerful are
never touched…… it is no longer so
They are being
brought to book . People who served as Chief Ministers are rotting in jail for
corruption
No one guilty of corruption will be spared
Youths of India refuse to accept corruption.
The fight
against corruption and black money will not stop
This is a fight for the
future of India’s youths “
Dear
Shri Modiji ,
For people who have lost all capacity – and desire – to
dream , even a nightmare is welcome !
And if you manage to bring
about the kind of nightmare that my following email ( sent to you earlier )
describes, then people of India will reward you with 400
+ seats in 2019 Lok Sabha elections :
In his book “ 1984 “ ,George Orwell imagined the nightmare of
the State surveillance of private lives of the citizens of the World
I envisage year 2019 as a nightmare year for the
politicians of India
Look at following news appearing in today’s Times of
India :
“ Govt to set up 12 spl courts to try 1,581 MPs and MLAs “
Highlights :
· 228……….
Members of Parliament to be tried in two special courts
· 13,500
… Approx number of total pending cases
· 1,125
….. Number of cases that each special court will have to decide in a year
· 242……..
Number of days trial courts normally function in a year
· 4.6………
Ave number of cases per day, each special court will have to dispose off
===============================
I assume that ,
· it
will be May 2018 , by the time
these Special Courts start working – more than 4 YEARS after the Supreme Court directed the Centre to set up these
courts
· these
“ Super Efficient “ courts will refuse to grant any “ Postponement Dates “ to
the accused and not only conclude within ONE HOUR ( whether the accused was guilty or not ) but also announce the
VERDICT , on the spot ( remember , 4.6
cases / day ? )
· there
cannot be any “ Appeal “
against the judgements of these special courts
· some 365 MPs / MLAs ( out of those 1581
accused ) will be found GUILTY
· the
Speakers of the Lok Sabha / Rajya Sabha , will get court order copies within 7 days
· the
Speakers will disqualify , within 7 days ,
those MPs / MLAs who are declared guilty and who have been handed out sentences
of 5 years or more
· the
Election Commission will receive these “ Disqualification Notifications “ in 7 days
· the
Election Commission will announce re-election dates within 30 days for seats falling vacant
· these
Elections will start from Dec 2018
and stretch throughout 365 days of 2019
· to
ensure proper / timely availability of Election officers / police / EVMs /
polling booths / presiding officers / school-teachers / transport etc , spread
over 28 States , no more than ONE ELECTION will
be conducted PER DAY ( - for
each of 365 days of 2019 ! )
I had envisaged this scenario , as far back as MAY 2014 , in :
2019 will be a nightmare year , not only for the politicians
but also for the voters !
But it will
be a bonanza year for :
· Newspapers
( Advt earnings )
· Outdoor
Publicity Companies ( Hoardings )
· Helicopter
Companies ( to ferry candidates / campaigners )
· Truck
Rental Companies ( to ferry voters )
· Event
Management Companies ( organizing Sabhas / Rallies )
· Printing
Presses ( printing of pamphlets / brochures / posters )….etc
Karl Marx may have said , " Religion is the opium of Masses "
In India , it seems , " Elections are the opium of the Masses " !
In 2019 , expect DEMOCRACY to
be working 24*365 !
=======================================================
Only cause for worry :
In all of these cases
against the “ Rich and Powerful “ , will CBI do a better job than what it
managed in 2G cases against Raja / Kanimozi
?
