The issue of
black money has been doing rounds in this country since time immemorial.
Various political parties when not in power raised this issue in various times asking
questions while the political parties in power did the answering. The
anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare started the movement on the general issue
and Yoga guru Baba Ramdev was quick to join in attacking the specific issue of
black money. But it always needs Arvind Kejriwal to bring it out in the open
for the hungry media and for the affected parties to deny or the unaffected to
demand probes.
Kejriwal is
clever enough to keep the suspense on by equally distributing his expose
installments between various politicians of various affiliations with their
presumed partners so that nobody knows who he is going to expose next. And,
each time, he leaves it at the allegations level only never trying hard enough
for providing real proof so that each installment drama continues till the
next.
As usual, the
BJP, cornered in the last installment and still sweating from it, has already
rejoiced since the affected party was the government along with its paraphernalia
this time. The main national opposition party slammed the government demanding
serious probes into the Kejriwal allegations. As usual, the affected parties
have started crying denials counter alleging that all these are false
allegations. The 4th installment drama is set to last for a long
time since Kejriwal made very serious allegations about the country’s economic
sovereignty being threatened by the black money cover-up corroborated by his six
major demands including disbanding operations of the international bank, HSBC,
in India .
We are all acquainted
with the EMI syndrome in our loan liabilities. Now we can rightfully create
another syndrome called the EKI meaning Equated Kejriwal Installment. I think
we are justified in using ‘equated’, because as we have already explained that
Kejriwal has been equating and evenly distributing his installments among the
corrupt parties…sorry allegedly corrupt parties.
The nationwide
wait begins now for the 5th EKI. Who is the next beneficiary…sorry
the victim? Right, allegedly! The land of allegations needs some more!
