Of Cranes and Cleaning. ……. ( Bingo said it )

As I walked in to the drawing room .. Saw Bingo ( our Dog ) working furiously ( Bingo is never furious with strangers ) on the key board ..

What’s so interesting I enquired ?

Am doing a study on all companies having anything to do with cranes .. Replied Bingo , all attention to the work on hand .

Why cranes .. ?

Crane companies are going to be the 10 baggers… And I don’t want to miss this opportunity ..

And why would that be ?

Bingo .. Don’t you know Kiran Bedi is inducted into the BJP and is most likely to be the CM ?

Oh.. That was a long time ago .. She is no more a Police Chief and even Indira Gandhi is no more ..
Bingo continued … She has promised to clean up Delhi … Both the roads and the criminals .. Probably she may make a better use of the AAP broom ..

That may be so … But There is a lot more to Ms Bedi and its a very shallow way to think of cranes when you think of Ms Bedi ..

Bingo … Yes there is a lot more to her .. Even AK ( Kejri) is happy that she has joined politics ! Although he may have not liked her saying that she is prepared for a direct fight with her ex- colleague ..

But not all of Kejris ex- colleagues want to fight the elections .. That’s what Shazia said ..

Bingo .. Shazia like MJ ( Akbar ) wants to strengthen the party and cleanse it of all the hypocrites ..

That’s good .. Let us hope it’s all for the good of Delhi …

Bingo … Yes… But Rajnathji is not so sure … Ms Bedi may not be the parliamentary boards choice !!

Rajnathji who ? … Had heard of Shah and Modi ….

Inducting CEO’s

Team MS- Modi – Shah seems to have a free hand and they are doing it Right ! It probably started with Suresh Prabhu … Whom Modi very much wanted in his team and so a day before he was inducted into the Cabinet he joined the party . In case of Mr Prabhu one could say he was already safronized having been part of the Sena but the same cannot be said about Kiran Bedi . She may have had leanings towards the Sangh if the congresswalas have to be believed but then she was not from any party in particular and was an activist with loads of credibility . That she has been promised the Delhi Gaddi and that prompted her to join the party is possible . But that MS have been able to pull this goes to speak a lot about their political acumen .. In one swift stroke the duo seems to have halted the AAP revival if there was any !

Now if one looks back at the Congress era ( and that already seems to be a long time ago ) one cannot recall a single instance when a non congresswala has been inducted into the cabinet or probably into the chief ministership . This may be true of other parties too .. And as such nothing is wrong about it . If there are competent people in the party then they are as well given the opportunity that a democracy has thrown up . It raises a fundamental question as to why people join political parties … They would agree with the party ideology and would seek an opportunity to do public service as when such an opportunity becomes available through an electoral victory. And that being the case there would be many aspirants from BJP who would be aspiring for the CM Gaddi and for that matter for the Railway ministry .. And that the duo of MS have been able to defy the many aspirants and been able to exercise their diktat tells a lot about the clout that they hold in the party .

These have been bold decisions going against the grain of party politics and for sure would have won many more admirers for Modi and his brand of development politics . The intent is clear and the sights have been set for the long term .. And with such chanakya like astuteness the duo would help steamroll all the opposition in its path. But more important by inducting such competent people from outside the party .. a new approach to governance has been initiated and one hopes that the same standards are applied ( as done while inducting these two ) to evaluate the partywallas performance who occupy important portfolios ..
