molesting democracy

I still wonder, how did I got the title for this blog?? while running through the news papers this morning it was a grieve shock to go through two news.

First one was on the killing of two more Kashmiri Youths in Police firing and second one was on the Reddy brothers being issued notice by election commission.

The killing of youths has attracted a lot of media attention and dishonor for paramilitary forces controlling law & order in valley. Even the government seems to be brushing off its hand and pass on the blame to forces claiming them to be “out of control”. But in all the chaos it is clearly evident that the beurocratic bridge to plug the gap between center and state is missing. Off late the besiege to peace in valley has been clouded due to beurocracy trying to make loopholes to protect the corrupt and punishing the innocent (not exactly). I still keep wondering as to till when, we the people will be puppets in the hand of government.

The courage by EC to finally notify the Reddy Brothers seem to fizz out with Reddy’s accepting it as Just another Notice for them. They seem to be completely unperturbed by the actions of State EC and are rubbishing it of stating, “Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah (religion will protect those who protect it)”. With the Reddy brothers and Sriramulu holding shares in the Obulapuram Mining Company, including 40 and 38 percent by Janardhan Reddy and his wife Lakshmi Aruna respectively, it would be interesting to see how they can disprove the charges. But history has proved that they have always escaped such charges without being touched, making mockery of democracy with the help of Money Power and Beurocratic Alliances.

Both the incidence seem related and somehow put democracy to shame. Thinking the same it clicked as to who are molesting democracy…..???

Thanks…
