After the Change Over the Spill Over

Tweet

We are just a tiny remote corner of the world . And so, I don't expect news of our little insignificant village to find space in the international media of any kind. Nevertheless, allow me to share the happenings around me. Our state West Bengal saw history being made last two months. I had shared about so called SIR in one of my previous discussions. It was a Special Intensive Revision of voters' list ordered by the National Election Commission of India. This revision process barred millions of people from voting in the last assembly elections. The elections were held on April 23 and 29. By means fair and foul whatever Bharatiya Janata Party came to power. Since the change over its over enthusiastic lovers and supporters are on a rampage spree.They are destroying, breaking, burning the properties supposedly belonging to the vanquished party. Even killings have been reported. The offices of the defeated party are either "captured" or damaged by the winner party bullies. Bulldozers ( scoops/cranes , popularly known as JCBs) are being employed to clear supposedly illegal shops, markets or workshops in the different parts of the city and state. Perhaps you citizens of democracies of Europe and America have never seen such spill over of victorious burst. But isn't it right? After all , India is India and its leader is renowned for being the Vishwa Guru ( teacher of the world).
