I was actually surprised by the outpouring of righteous
indignation about the idea of abolition of property rights, which, I
too think is a lost cause at best. But that is one idea of one
person, not engraved in stone, or even mud.I thought that my esteemed
peers, some of Assam's best--if quality could be judged by degrees and
financial success abroad, are finally going to contribute something
useful to the discourse. That they are finally about to prove their
sanctimonious and self-impressed intellectual superiority pretensions
and
set forth better ideas, become a part of the SOLUTION.
But I won't bet on it. It is more about asserting their own
righteousness,
armed with half-baked notions and slogans, merely attempting to
denounce and reject with tired and prosaic labels, as it quickly
became apparent.
