In the 1976 drama documentary motion picture ‘All The
President’s Men’, a nice catchphrase came into existence – “Follow The Money”. It
became very popular too. The screenwriter of the motion picture attributed the
catchphrase to ‘Deep Throat’, one who eventually exposed the massive ‘Watergate’
scandal. The documentary followed the money trail within high offices to expose
the corrupt among the mighty. The plot behind this investigative motion
picture was very fundamental. You don’t have to stop the bribe takers and bribe
givers if you want to curb corruption. To arrest the menace what you should do instead
is to actually follow the money, not the corrupt. But as usual, India, with its
corruption too, is a different case study. In India, the ambit of corruption is
not just limited to high offices alone. It spreads across, including
households. From big to small; from rich to poor; there are a lot of corrupt
people roaming around. To set straight these corrupt individuals you
possibly can’t run behind each one of them. But what you can do is – follow the
money. That is precisely what Narendra Modi tried to do when he announced the
banning of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes on November 8th. He didn’t run
around those who were hiding a lot of black money. He need not have to even. There
are competent authorities to take care at individual level. What he did instead
is he followed the money and made sure that each paisa of that money is
accounted for.
This was a very brave and bold step. No government in recent
past took this step though it was badly a necessity. Remember – follow the
money? But I am not blaming the previous governments. They could have their
reasons. That said, I still feel, most of the recent governments would not even
have thought of this option. It takes courage to implement out of the box decisions
and none of the governments in recent past that preceded NaMo had that courage.
It takes enormous political will too. Along with courage and will you too
need a lot of conviction which for sure was missing with earlier governments. The
present government in all likelihood started preparing for this day immediately
after they assumed office. Crores of zero balance accounts were opened in a war
footnote. Dispensation of subsidy through direct cash transfer was meted out
next. Ample opportunities were shared with the money hoarders to come out with
their declaration and clear their money. Finally after two and half years the
axe fell and quite rightly so. As early as May 2016, Modi was seen issuing his
final warnings – I gave you a lot of chance to set your books straight, now don’t
blame me if some bold steps are taken in future. That was as vocal as one can
get. When we talk of a prolonged 70 years of abject corruption, the situation
turns out to be no less than desperate. And desperate situation calls for desperate measures,
which in this case our PM refers as ‘bitter pill’. Cleansing a big pile of mess
requires a massive effort from each one of us and certainly post
demonetisation, we are getting to terms with this massive effort. Things can’t
be business as usual in couple of days. That is nothing but wishful thinking
and far from the reality. It would take some time, in this case, no lesser than
the PM has assured a 50 day window to streamline, both the process and the operations.
But still there are some who find this step unjustified. And surprise,
surprise, each one of this dissatisfied lot appears very familiar. The same ‘Idea
of India’ gang, the litfest mafias, the media Rudalis, the secular charlatans,
the award wapsi gang and their advocates, the ‘krantikari’ corruption crusaders,
the ‘Bharat tere tukde honge haazar’ exponents; it is so familiar here too. How
the same thugs have ganged up again and most importantly why?
The other day I had to stand in a queue to withdraw money
from the bank as no ATMs were working. There were many who were standing
alongside me. It took me close to an hour to get the transaction done. For the
entire period that I stood patiently, I never heard a single individual whining
of his/her discomfort. When I say a single, I mean single only. In fact all of
them were praising the move with a collective agreement. All were ready to take
the pain, if that promises a better India. Keep it in mind – this has got
nothing to do with patriotism. It is all about cleaning up your surroundings
and all were happy that the cleansing work has finally started. Then why the
usual suspects were having their nickers on fire? For which section the
crocodile tears are gushing out when the public at large is happy with the
decision? Are these thugs living in another planet or they are lying again? Let’s
see.
As expected, the wolf crying had to start with
Congress. Reasons for their displeasure have three folds. First – they are in
the opposition and if anything to go by, Congress as opposition has a very shoddy
history. They never were a constructive opposition and I doubt if they would
ever be. Greed for power could easily be a reason why this party always dons
the cap of a clown whenever finds itself in the opposition. Second – they are
irrelevant in the political discourse today. There negligible presence even at state
level isn’t helping the cause either. They are desperate to remain relevant
which leaves them with no option but to spread nonsense at the slightest
opportunity. Third and most important – they built a party on corruption and
here we are talking about 70 years of loot. All that loot money has today
rounded up to naught. That is a scarier proposition, more so when the Up
elections are round the corner. They are running out of ideas to settle the
massive loot they have accomplished over the decades of misruling. Sanjay Jha
is a demagogue but that is what Congress as a party is. You can fairly replace
SJ with anyone from the Congress stable in this tweet and you still won’t be
wrong with your assumptions. Almost all in the party are hypocrites and liars.
When BJP was after the frauds of Swiss bank in 2015, SJ with all his
intellectual might or the absence of it, questioned the very step. What was the
ploy back then? Yes, there are a lot of corrupt people within India and
government must concentrate on these home-grown leeches first. Now, how the
narrative changes in 2016 when Modi finally disturbs the local fraud syndicate?
SJ does a brilliant somersault and proves himself a buffoon. As I said, SJ is
just the symptom. The real malice lies with Congress. They never were happy
when their near and dear ones were chased upon in 2015 and they aren’t happy
today. So basically Congress isn’t very happy with the decision for reasons that
don’t require much analysis to understand. This tweet alone exposes the
underlying desperation of losing the loot money. The entire cry for poor is the
routine hogwash that we come to associate with the Congress party.
Congress’s desperation for relevance is quite understandable
and I give it to them. But does this also pretty much explain why our media
morons are lining up with their bile? This has been the case since 2002 and
more rabid after 2014. The so called journalists become campaigners and
defenders of secular crime whenever required. NDTV being the prominent among
the liberal lot has to shout first. No wonder why it falls upon Sonia Singh to take
the lead. She has a bundle of reasons to explode. Being the managing editor of
the most secular media house of India is just part of the reason. She too is
the supportive wife of a prominent Congress leader and apparently her maid
suddenly gets admitted to the hospital with no cash in hand. Lots of reasons,
you see. But this is how these journos fail themselves. They aren’t very
bright, if you remember my words. Though my response to her tweet may appear
sarcastic to you, I was whole lot worried how things were panning out with our
Delhi based journalists. It is quite an enigma out here. I still don’t
understand how all the maids, cooks, gardeners and drivers of our Delhi based
journalists of secular fabrics perpetually remain at the receiving end of any and
every BJP government’s policies? They fall prey quite quickly. In fact, they
usually are the first lot that go down because of the atrocious regulations. When
whole of India was agreeing to pack the agenda of these media morons to the
nearest shit bin, a responsible secular scum has to furnish definitive examples
in a hurry. Employed maids need to come handy here. Why one would have maids in
house if they can’t bail out at the time of need, no? Sonia Singh is not just
the one of case. There were other secular journalists too. They pretty much
tweeted something or the other of same nature. In fact one dimwit journalist was a step ahead with her piousness. She was immensely
worried about her neighbour’s maid. Since she had to tweet the ‘do your own work’
philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi on 2nd October and how she follows this
ideology herself, she can’t have her own maid all of a sudden. You know, this would make her non-existent IQ so obvious. That
would be an insult to Mahatma Gandhi too. Barring few almost all were quite
elaborative of the pain of their maids. What their sundry household workers had
to go through because of a highly inconsiderate PM at the centre and other such nonsense. Do you see the pattern? No? Hell, this makes so
much sense. After all, it is for a secular cause.
There were a lot of ‘Idea Of India’ frauds, not just
these media chumps. TOI event went ahead and ran a story in the front page
about the death of a waiting customer in a bank. As usual no fact check was
done. Fact check hardly matters when agendas have queued up for disposal.
Ethics goes for a walk, which usually is the case with our secular brand of
journalism. And keep it in mind, they ran the story in the front page. Truth
came out later and as usual slapped TOI left-right-and-centre. But look at how the
retract shaped out. While the fabrication found its place on the front page,
the truth had to negotiate heavy to find a place in Page-14 and that too in a
corner. This is another phenomenon with our media that I have observed very closely
since 2002. They lie big but retract small when caught stealing. They shove
their agenda forgetting the real India, which these morons have no sync with. Left to the lie of TOI is the real India that these servile doormats have long
detached themselves. They don’t understand the reality and they don’t prefer
keeping their years to the ground. They still feel, it is their prerogative to
push nonsense and rest all are only privileged to consume their lies without
questioning. To the utter unfortunateness of our media scums, India has turned
much smarter over the years. They know where their interest lays, as in case
this ‘Panipuri’ vendor. He means to do his business and he knows how to
maintain his customer base, unlike these media rascals who are losing, both
their credibility and their viewer/reader base at an alarming rapidity.
The response to this demonetisation policy explains a
pattern. A pattern where the corrupt have ganged up to give it their best one
last time to save the loot. The honest seems to be enjoying the change while
the corrupt and other ‘Krantikaris’ are having their ass on fire. Each one of
the howling lot has a lot to hide. Someone like Lalu is even a convicted
criminal in a graft case. Mamata Banarjee can’t sell her paintings for crores
henceforth. Her Jehadi brothers would run dry. She obviously has a situation in
hand and her outburst is nothing but a pathetic equivalence of – Houston, we
have a problem. Mulayam Yadav needs no elaboration and so does Mayawati. She
prefers to wear only Rs 500/- garland. Mulayam could easily be the Sarad Pawar
of North India. Rahul Gandhi is a disaster and needs no further explanation of
his behaviour. He is clueless as always and may not be aware what
demonetisation means. He begs no thrashing this time because he isn’t worth of
any thrashing anymore. Same is with Arvind Kejriwal, the biggest scam that has
happened to India in last five years. He is charlatan-par-excellence and his idiocies
are too legendary to be analysed. He already has done a perfect bastardization
of his brand of politics and India owes this whore a lot for his self-exposing and
exposing other liberal scums in the process.
In
the meantime, I feel this is not enough. More steps need to be taken. I am not sure if people have noticed it or not, but the agitation in Kashmir has stopped at once. Must be magic. Glad
that Narendra Modi followed what ‘Deep Throat’ said – Follow The Money.
