Prevent it Now ! Or live with it forever
By Thakur Shashi Prakash Singh

A permanent chapter is going to be written in the history of this great nation with permanent ink. Something that can never be erased if not prevented this time. The people of India mandated for change in the Government and the opportunists want to get united under the leadership of a powerful puppet. Powerful because she is Gandhi. Remember, the people of India were not told that Sonia Gandhi is the Prime Ministerial candidate. The puppet who does not understand the intricacies and the complexities of India because of the absence of political genes or naturally inherited pedigree. Least of all the public experience to administer a country. India is not a place where an outsider with dubious and unknown past can come and perform internship.

The issue of foreign origin is on the minds of almost everybody sane. The politically conservatives think that it is irresponsible to the power infinity to make an outsider come to power and administer Government of this august country. We have welcomed everybody, but we cannot give a country to an outsider. United States has a law regarding people holding high office. Arnold Schwarzenegger can never eye for White House. California is the maximum for him. USA is a secular country with very high civic liberty. Yet it will not allow outsider to be in White House no matter how influential he or she may be. Same is true for Israel, UK, Switzerland, Japan, China or even Pakistan and many other nations who are great or not so great.

India is a democracy and the issues are folding on the fly. The architect of constitution must not have envisaged about it. We should take issues sensitive and not so sensitive with equal sensitivity. We have a constitution that is written on the paper, but is like a line on stone when it comes to the opportunists. It is not written clearly about some of the issues close to heart.

India has to think seriously about whether they are ready for this change. The representatives of people should not be in a hurry and derive a decision haphazardly. The people should be allowed to participate in the debate and Sonia Gandhi should resist the lust of power till that day. By doing this, she will enter into the history and remain a legend. There is no question about second chance here. Once she is sworn in, the words will be engraved. We the people need some more time.

See Sharad Pawar, who is also known as the ace of opportunist. He wanted to make sure that Sonia Gandhi does not rise to claim Prime Ministership, so he opposed her foreign origin. He was asked to leave with a platter full of disgrace. Now seeing the power insight he seems to be favouring the Congress party. He never believed in what he thought. Otherwise he would have persued it. Either Sharad Pawar, Sonia Gandhi or the Lord knows what the deal is.

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Government is also responsible for this plight. When the issue was so important why was it not introduced in the Parliament for possible constitutional amendment. They were working in reverse order on the priority list and have brought the nation at this stage. The second generation leadership of the Naidus, the Jaitleys and the Mahajans has to answer India. Why they did not think that India does not need an incorrectly speaking person of foreign roots with an unproven intellectual capability. We have one billion incorrectly speaking people and humongous list of no public experience people. Probably they were busy eating spaghetti with tomato sauce and forgot the traditional curry.

Is it the time to face the ultimate truth?
