Rotting State

It has been a while now that I actually wrote something. Now that I have sat down , I realise it is more to due with my frustration than eagerness to write.

Recently I read an article on BSP leader Mayawati and to be honest I just hate her to death. I won’t say she is better or worse than other UP leader in Mulayam Singh Yadav but the fact of the matter is she is doing nothing for the state.

We all know UP is rotting for years now and there has been a dearth of leaders in that state. UP Cabinet is full of corrupt goondaas who are sucking the blood of common man. No wonder this state along with its neighbour Bihar has been dragging our economy and infecting the GDP for a while now. Some may have a different view but in real we haven’t seen a single politician who has made a sincere attempt to do something for the "aam aadmi". To make matters worse UP population never matures …it grows like a booming economy at an astounding rate while the poverty and illiteracy are still the same.

One thing which sends chilling signals down my spine is Mayawati emerging as a national leader. She has been flexing her political arms for a while now and openly reveals her ambition of being a PM of India someday. I would say that would be the saddest day in my life perhaps most of our lives. You would be amazed to know that she has spent 11 lakhs apiece on an elephant statue (her party symbol) around her party headquarters …and she has built 70 of them…..fucking crazy shit ...just imagine 70000 of them all over India when she becomes PM
