With inflation peaking new highs everyday , fuel prices burning the pocket of ‘Aam aadmi’ , Food items eating the consumer itself , 5th july woke up with an entitled ‘bandh’ by the Opposition which supposedly incorporated complete NDA and left parties . Entire day was crammed with the commotion , courtesy - the faithful party workers . Lots of buses were burnt , people were harassed ,a big loss of 10,000 crore was hurled on the Indian economy . But at the end , it was proposed as a successful ‘bandh’ by the participating parties .
Bandh , undeniably caused a major havoc in every major part of the nation , Tv channels covered it minutely, everyone is aware of every occurrence but still there were some facts that remain unnoticed .
Some facts , some incidents , that indeed exist and burn the heart of our land gradually but horrendously . What are they ??
Let us concentrate on some of them :-
1) Small kids , unknown to the ugly panorama on the streets , playing football and cricket . They are more than happy to sit home , rather than aching their back with heavy bags and suffering the mental trauma to read when muhammed gauri attacked india or how the acid neutralize the base . They seemed to me like the real ‘junta’ - unaware of everything , expecting an uncomplicated life but the future surrounds them with the same kind of dark truth that prevails everywhere and continually prohibits the growing status of India . Will they be able to fight ??
2) A person which possibly looks sleeping , latent , resting but has actually suffered a major heart attack . His family awaits the clearance of the traffic that forbids the movement of even the tormenting ambulance , despite assuring no halt to medical amenities during the bandh . This person looked like our own homeland to me – suffering , in pain , crying but getting no help . It wants to budge ahead but there are some demons preventing it to do so . They know if it marches forward , it will get cured . And once alleviated , It will sprint in the coupé of growth so fast that they will not be able to keep pace with it and they will cripple behind.
3) Politicians – protesting , making loud noises , mudslinging the central party , instructing their party workers and finally getting arrested for 2 hours . At evening , all of them sit in an A.C. room with a dark strong soothing coffee in their hand and watch news channels on the latest technology screens .All their party workers too , are back in their home with the little money they earned from their loyalty towards their masters . They are more than happy with their efforts as the intensity of their strike was directly proportional to the trauma of ' aam junta ' .
It was hard to even look at them but when I tried with all my strength to identify what they are , They looked just like…POLITICIAN , Nothing else.
