The right word here is cynical. There was an Anna protester on TV wanting to know why Rahul who breaks laws to travel to UP , goes for days of padyatras , takes the trouble to hold farmers nukkad meetings on camera , is seen sleeping & eating with farmers on these trips , obviously to show his great concern for them , is not able to come to the venue a few KMs from his home , since the Yuv Raj of Congress is obviously in to politics at the highest level now ? What prevents him from showing up in front of cameras on an issue that concerns every Indian & polls show over 85% are with the JLP bill ? Wont it make a pretty picture on the stage with Anna ? Every TV camera in Delhi is there .
It is clear that far from engaging constructively on this extremely serious issue with Anna & his people , the Congress has tried every tick in their bag , including defaming every member of Anna's team ( initially Amar Singh , then Dig Vijay , Kapil Sibbal & Manish Tiwari made their great contributions here ) in the most virulent, stupid & demeaning manner ....& finally tried to derail the peaceful protests by denying him permission . Is hard to digest that a police that was seen shooting at farmers a few days back , refuses to do any thing about the Thakerys no matter how provocative , filthy & violent they are habitually... is really worried about the law & order threat from a movement where the protesters seem to be total peaceful , where Anna asks them to protect public property & the man is taken into "preventive detention " at his home as he intends to break a law & will be a law & order problem ? We indeed have the right to be doubly cynical about the way the whole system works today . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
