The Supreme Court on
Tuesday said that the affidavit

L u c k n o w : U t t a r
Pradesh government
will undertake the task
of modernising over
2,000 rice mills across
the states to ensure
quality- control, so that
the finished rice fetches
a better price.
The move is aimed at
achieving the state gov-
ernment’s goal of
self-sufficiency in food
and nutrition security,
employment creation,
and wealth generation.
According to Sorabh
Babu, Commissioner,
Food and Civil Supplies,
the private rice mills
will be modernised and,
in this regard, some
mandatory provisions
will be made by the gov-
ernment. The depart-
ment will soon hold a
meeting with the UP
Rice Millers Associa-
tion and millers to en-
courage them toward
the same. Rice milling
is the oldest and the
largest agro-processing
industry in the country
.
There are about 757
large mills having a
milling capacity of 4
tonnes per hour or more
in the state, while the
number of smaller
units is about 1,157 hav-
ing less than 4 MT per
hour milling capacity
.
The smaller scale
mills are equipped with
the traditional machine
due to which the quality
of rice deteriorates and
does not fulfill the
norms and standards of
FCI (Food Corporation
of India).
With the upgradation
of machinery, capacity
building, and use of
modern technology, the
government aims to
produce high-quality
rice.

tation by connecting

boost tourism and in-
dustry and create new

First India Bureau
Lucknow: An applica-
tion has been filed by
one of the petitioners in
the Shahi Eidgah Mas-
jid- Shri Krishna
Janmabhoomi case
seeking the appoint-
ment of an advocate
commissioner to con-
duct a spot inspection of
the mosque to find out
any traces of “Hindu re-
ligious symbols” there.
The court which was
due to decide the main-
tainability of the case
could not take up as
there was no work be-
cause of the death of
an advocate. The court
has now fixed July 1 as
the next hearing. The
application was moved
before the civil judge
(senior division)
Mathura Jyoti Singh
by the petitioner’s ad-
vocate Mahendra Prat-
ap Singh in the case.
Referring to the Vara-
nasi court order about
the survey of Maa
ShringarGaurtemplein
Gyanvapi Masjid com-
plex, Mahendra Pratap
Singh said in his appli-
cationthatsimilarorder
should be issued in the
Krishna Janmabhoomi
case also. It may be re-
called that during the
last hearing the court
had fixed May 10 about
the maintainability of
the case as the Shahi Ei-
dgah Masjid committee
has contended that the
case was not “maintain-
able”becauseof thepro-
visionsof Placesof Wor-
ship(SpecialProvisions)
Act 1991.
Mahendra Pratap
Singh, who is counsel
for the petitioner Thak-
ur Dev Ji Maharaj said
in his application that
“there are still remains
of Hindu religion, in-
cluding various marks
like Om, Swastika, and
Sheshnaga within the
mosque which proved
that it was originally
Thakur Keshav Dev
Temple”. Since these
marks are important in
the disposal of the case
but the masjid manage-
ment committee mem-
bers could remove these
symbols, it is necessary
to order a survey
, includ-
ing videography and
photography of the
mosque as being done at
the Gyanvapi masjid
complex in Varanasi.

Agra: On one hand, the
government is working
on the development of
government schools to
give higher education to
the children and at the
same time, some educa-
tion merchants are en-
gaged in sabotaging the
efforts of the govern-
ment. One such case has
come to light from Man-
di Sayeed Khan Prima-
ry School in Agra. Here,
children are studying
while sitting on mats
under the sun.
Children don’t even
have a roof over their
heads in this scorching
heat and are taking the
help of the shade of the
tree to avoid the sun
and the classroom
meant for them to study
has been occupied by
the officer sahib. The
classroom is turned
into an office for the
Block Education Offi-
cer. Due to this, the chil-
dren are forced to sit
under the tree outside
the classroom. On Tues-
day, on the primary
school premises, chil-
dren were seen sitting in
the sun and studying in
the midst of scorching
heat. The councilors of
the area reached the
schoolandwerestunned
when they witnessed
this scene. Councilors
told that the innocent
childrenarebeingforced

of these children. How-
ever, when an attempt
was made to talk to the
Block Education Officer,
he could not get in touch

‘WE WILL
DEMOLISH
GYANVAPI
IN 2022’
Lucknow: Former BJP MLA Sangeet Som triggered a con-
troversy after he reportedly said that the Gyanvapi Mosque
would be demolished like the Babri Masjid. “Babri Masjid
was demolished in 1992, now it is the turn of Gyanvapi
Mosque...we will demolish it in 2022,” Som said while
speaking at a function at Meerut, about 450 kilometers from
here, on Monday. “Muslim invaders had constructed the
mosque after demolishing the temple....the time has come
to take it back,” Som, who was also accused in the 2013
Muzaffarnagar communal riots case, said. “They (Muslims)
should have known this (demolition of Gyanvapi Mosque)
the day the Babri Masjid was demolished.....they should
have known which way is the country moving...we will not
leave any such (controversial) mosque and demolish all of
them,” he added. He said that Ramlala (idol of Lord Rama)
had to remain in tarpaulin for several years but now a grand
Ram Temple was being constructed. “Not a brick of Babri
Masjid can be found today....the same will happen to Gyan-
vapi Mosque also,” Som said. Som had contested the re-
cently concluded UP assembly polls from the Sardhana seat
but lost to Samajwadi Party (SP) candidate Atul Pradhan.

TOP TWEETS
RPG ATTACK ON
INTELLIGENCE HQ
PUTS LENS ON
AAP GOVERNMENT
lose on the heels of
the Khalistan flag be-
ing hoisted on the
gate of Himachal
Pradesh Assembly
comes a rocket-propelled gre-
nade (RPG) attack at the Punjab
police headquarters. The dam-
age was minor but the impact of
the attack is being taken by in-
telligence agencies seriously
. Is
there a Pakistani hand or that of
Afghanistan where RPGs are
used more? That is for the intel-
ligence sleuths to figure out but
what is of great concern is the
occurrence of minor-looking in-
cidents aimed, perhaps, to test
the security apparatus in the
border state.
The hoisting of flag at the As-
sembly building’s gate and the
painting of its walls with pro-
Khalistan slogans happened
even after an intelligence input
was shared with the state.
These are ominous signs for
the newly formed Aam Aadmi

Arvind Kejriwal’s stay in the
house of Gurwinder Singh, an
activist of Khalistan Liberation
Front, ahead of Punjab polls.
C
n a surprise move
the Central gov-
ernment told the
Supreme Court of
India that it was
ready to re-examine the Brit-
ish-era law on sedition as de-
fined under Section 124A of
the Indian Penal Code. The
change in stand came a cou-
ple of days after the govern-
ment defended the law.
Interestingly
, the UK gov-
ernment itself repealed the
law way back in 2009. It, how-
ever, continues to be misused
by the Central and various
state governments of its for-
mer colony
. The law has been
used to crack down on those
criticising the government,
whichisviewedas“spreading
disaffection”, a criminal of-
fenceunderthedraconianlaw.
Duringtheongoinghearingof
the sedition case by a bench
headed by Chief Justice of In-
dia NV Ramana, the Centre
saidonMondaythatthePrime
Minister wants a comprehen-
sive review of the law to pre-
vent its misuse and requested
the court to leave the matter
foran“appropriateplatform”.
But the Centre did not give a
schedule for the review.
The court has asked the
Centre to revert with a time-
line. The petitioners have, on
theotherhand,contendedthat
Section 124 A be stayed if the
court decides to refer the mat-
ter to a larger bench and “that
any pending proceedings”, be
stayedasaninterimmeasure”.
A former Supreme Court
judge, Justice Madan B.
Lokur, once said at an event
that authorities have found
various ways of “weaponis-
ing” the sedition laws. Justice
Lokur said, “One of the worst
forms of curtailment of free-
dom of speech is charging a
person with sedition.”
SEDITION CASE HEARING
REMAINS IN FOCUS
During the ongoing hearing of the sedition case by
a bench headed by CJI NV Ramana, the Centre said
on Monday that the PM wants a comprehensive review of
the law to prevent its misuse and requested the court to
leave the matter for an “appropriate platform”. But the
Centre did not give a schedule for the review.
I
AAP MUST LEARN THE ROPES
OF REGIONAL POLITICS FAST
PATIALA CLASH
he recent Patiala clash was
the first major law and order
challenge for the AAP gov-
ernment in Punjab. The clash
was a clear writing on the
wall with Sikh for Justice’s
(SFJ’s) Gurpatwant Singh
Pannu’s call to observe Khal-
istan Day on April 29 and the
Sena members announcing
to take out an anti-Khalistan
March on the same day!
Barjinder Singh Parwana,
one of the masterminds of
the clash, who was arrested,
had earlier said on social me-
dia that he would not allow
anyone to hold such an event.
To cover up its lapses, the
AAP, however, said it was not
a communal clash but a clash
between Opposition political
parties and arrests were
made from both sides.
However, the first question
that comes to mind is why did
the administration, in the
first place, allow such a vola-
tile situation to erupt? There
hadbeenconflictingstandsof
Parwana and Sena members
in the past over the issues of
Khalistan as well as the Army
action on the Golden Temple.
Meanwhile, all Opposition
parties–Congress,Shiromani
Akali Dal (SAD), BJP – joined
the bandwagon and in their
blisteringattacktargetedAAP
for the “failing law and order
inthestate.”TheAAPgovern-
mentalsofacedflakfromSikh
outfits for failing to prevent
the ‘Khalistan Murdabad’ ral-
ly called by Shiv Sena leader
Harish Singla.
Meanwhile, it is pertinent
to note that while the Delhi
model for better power,
health and education facili-
ties, is fine, the AAP govern-
ment would do better to
weigh the realities of Hindu
and Panthic groups and
farmers/labour unions.
It may be noted that this is
not the first time that a clash/
friction took place between
the Parwana and Shiv Sena
in the state. In June 2021, the
Shiv Sena (Punjab) had alleg-
edly put up posters calling
the anniversary of Operation
Bluestar as “terrorism khaat-
ma divas (end of terrorism
day).” However, since the op-
eration involved military ac-
tion on the holiest site of
Sikhs, it is an occasion of
mourning for the community
.
The Sena announcement
was enough to trigger a coun-
teraction. Soon after, a video
went viral in which Parwana
was seen tearing posters of
‘Terrorism Khaatma Divas.”
Armed with such experience
andoutcome,whenSenalead-
er Singla announced that
April 29 would be observed as
Khalistan Murdabad Divas,
does it leave any doubt in any-
one’s mind that another
round of bristles was evident.
Shouldn’t the AAP govern-
ment which had come to pow-
er by securing a massive
mandate from all sections be
more sensitive and isn’t it
evident that the government
may have erred in letting Sin-
gla hold such an event, espe-
cially near a religious place
(the Kali Mata Mandir in Pa-
tiala) and it may be noted
that the Gurdwara Dukh Ni-
varan Sahib is only 1 to 2 km
from the spot.
Whatwasthenewlyformed
AAP government doing in the
meantime. It is not that that
rally was something that hap-
penedsuddenlyandtheorgan-
isers amassed so many people
overnight. The masses were
well aware of this and to top it
all, several people, including
Parwanahimself,hadrequest-
ed the police to prevent the
Khalistan Murdabad protest.
Yet, the protest took place and
it triggered a counter.

WHAT DOES THE CLASH
MEAN FOR AAP IN GENERAL

z AAP must quickly come
out of its simple point
mantra of Delhi model to
win over voters

z It must learn and learn
fast about the religio-socio
template of the country as it
has shown its eagerness to
make foray into other states

z It now needs to understand
the caste-based politics,
the intricacies of regional
satraps and the minute de-
tailing… like the Lingayats
and Brahmins in Karnataka,
the Gurjars, Thakurs and
Dalits in the heartland

z Delhi politics is cosmopolitan
politics. Simply harping on the
basic needs may be a good
thing but given the template
of Indian regional politics,
AAP has to master the art of
survival fast if it plans to have
a long-term political ambition

z Key to ruling in various
states is the art of balanc-
ing acts between social
forces and understanding
the ground realities and to
be able to control possible
flare-ups
Barjinder Singh Parwana,
one of the masterminds of
the clash, who was arrested,
had earlier said on social
media that he would not
allow anyone to hold such an
event. To cover up its lapses,
the AAP, however, said it was
not a communal clash but
a clash between Opposition
political parties and arrests
were made from both sides.
WAS IT A CLEAR
CASE OF THE AAP
GOVERNMENT BEING
CAUGHT NAPPING?
WAS IT SCARED OF
BEING BRANDED AS
ANTI-HINDU OR
PRO-KHALISTAN IN
CASE IT TOOK “ANY”
ACTION?
IN BOTH THE
SCENARIOS, AAP
DOESN’T STAND TO
GAIN GROUND, IN
FACT, IT HAS LOST
QUITE A BIT

the extremist outfits
have entered into peace
agreements and surren-
dered before the govern-
ment. He said that the
surrendered militants
are being jointly reha-
bilitated by the central
and state governments.

ous history and achieve-
ments of Assam police,

ing and several other so-
cial issues.

Bangladesh liberation
war in 1971 and commu-
nal riots, the Assam po-
lice performed brilliant-
ly and courageously
.”
Shah said that when In-
dia got Independence,
there were 8,000 Assam
policemenandnowtheir
strength has increased
to70,000.Duringthepast
seven decades, 886 As-
sam policemen were

lems,” Shah added.

ister Himanta Biswa
Sarma urged the police
to work for the weaker
sections of the society
and appreciated their ef-
forts in the decline of
militant activities in the
state. “Hundreds of cad-
res of the eight militant
groups have joined the
mainstream and anoth-
er 13 outfits are in dia-
logue with the govern-
ment,” Sarma said.

JD(U) leader writes to Nitish
for safety from Naxal group
Patna (Agencies): A
JD(U) leader in Bihar
has requested Chief
Minister Nitish Kumar
to save the lives of his
family members in-
cluding him from a
Naxal group active in
Darbhanga region.
Awadesh Lal Dev,
who is a general secre-
tary of the JD(U) most
backward cell of Bi-
har, claimed that his
wife has links with a
Naxal commander
Manoj Laldev who is
threatening to kill his
entire family.
Awadesh is a native
of Meghna village un-
der Bahadurpur police
station in Darbhanga
district.
“My wife is working
under the influence of
Naxal commander
Manoj Laldev. On April
23, Manoj along with 50
to 60 Naxals arrived at
my house and threat-
ened us with dire con-
sequences. I had con-
tacted the local police
but they did not take
any action. I also went
to the DGP’s office but
he refused to meet me
by giving an excuse of
corona,” Awadesh said.
“My marriage took
place in 2006. Initially
I did not know the link
of my wife with Manoj.
However, I soon real-
ised that she had a
definite link with him.
In 2012, the matter
reached Bahadurpur
police station and I
agreed on the compro-
mise due to the pres-
sure of local police
personnel,” he said.
Awadesh left the vil-
lage in fear of his wife
and Manoj Laldev, and
is currently living in
Patna with his two mi-
nor daughters. He went
to the chief minister’s
residence in Patna
where security person-
nel did not allow him to
go inside. As there
were a number of me-
dia persons present
there, he shared his
plight with them.

Lucknow: The politi-
cal events of UP in the
last decade testify that
SP Patriarch Mulayam
Singh Yadav has tacti-
cally passed the baton
of his political legacy
to his son Akhilesh Ya-
dav, as well as, whenev-
er the SP Chief was in
trouble, then the SP
founder turned up to
play the role of suc-
courer for former.
In the pre-2012 era, it
was Shivpal who used
to wield a lot of influ-
ence in SP after Mu-
layam.After 2012, when
two contenders for the
power of UP, Shivpal
and Akhilesh came for-
ward, Mulayam pre-
ferred latter over for-
mer for the CM post. It
is obvious that the SP
founder had clearly ex-
pressed his intention
to hand over his politi-
cal legacy to his son
instead of his brother.
Mulayam publicly
reprimanded Akhilesh
Yadav several times
during latter’s tenure
as the CM. Even during
an official event in the
year 2015, Mulayam
Singh publicly rebuked
his son and then CM
Akhilesh.
Political observers
believe that all these
efforts of rebuke were
done under diplomacy.
Had Mulayam been se-
rious, he would have
taken some kind of ac-
tion against those who
were not standing up to
his expectations.
Also, then SP supre-
mo could have done
this privately or at the
most at party forum be-
hind closed doors.
Those who know Mu-
layam closely believe
that by admonishing
the government of his
own son, he seeks to
function as a safety
valve, airing the griev-
ances of the people.
In 2016, when there
was a public feud be-
tween Shivpal and
Akhilesh, Shivpal got
carried away, only to
realize that he had got
cornered by his elder
brother.
In the recently held
assembly elections,
there was a tough fight
for Karhal seat. Then
without caring about
his health, Mulayam
Singh campaigned in
favor of his son. Re-
garding this, PM Modi
took a swipe at Akh-
ilesh in a rally by say-
ing that the SP Chief
was insecure about
winning Karhal, there-
fore he brought Sama-
jwadi Party patriarch
to campaign for him in
the elections.
MSY COMES TO AKHILESH’S RESCUE
A CLOSED-DOOR MEET HINTS AT MULAYAM’S CONTINUED SUPPORT TO SP CHIEF
Akhilesh Yadav in consultation with SP partriarch Mulayam Singh.
MULAYAM STANDS
WITH AKHILESH
At a time when Akhilesh
is on the target Azam
Khan and his uncle
Shivpal’s supporters,
Mulayam has become
active to boost his son’s
morale. Recently, he held
a closed-door meeting
with his son and the
SP chief at the party
headquarters. SP patri-
arch wants to convey
an impression that he
is with Akhilesh in any
situation.
Chaturvedi to be new
ACS Finance as Chauhan
leaves for Delhi
Ahtesham Siddiqui
Lucknow: S Radha
Chauhan who was
ACS Finance has been
relieved by the UP
government on Tues-
day, enabling her to go
on central deputation.
She is a 1988 batch IAS
officer and has previ-
ously held important
positions like Finance
Commissioner, ACS
Institutional Finance
and ACS State Tax.
The bureaucrat will
now be appointed as
the Secretary, Depart-
ment of Personal
Training (DoPT) on
central deputation, a
position which is con-
sidered very import-
ant in the central gov-
ernment.
The position of ACS
Finance will now be
handed over to 1989
batch IAS officer De-
vesh Chaturvedi as an
additional charge,
sources in the bureau-
cracy told First India.
With the Uttar
Pradesh government
planning to convene
the Assembly session
soon, there is a possi-
bility that Devesh
Chaturvedi might be
given the complete re-
sponsibility as ACS
Finance and relieved
of his charge as ACS
Agriculture as he will
have on his shoulders
the responsibility of
presenting and prepar-
ing the budget, which
is to be done by the Fi-
nance Department.
Devesh Chaturvedi
though will continue
to have the charge of
ACS Appointments as
there is talk of an im-
pending large-scale
transfer in the state
bureaucracy in the
coming months.
First India Bureau
Lucknow: State Minis-
ter for Tourism and
Culture, Jaiveer Singh
on Tuesday ordered the
suspension of Regional
Tourism Officer, Luc-
know, Anupam Srivas-
tava on charges of in-
discipline, lax control
over subordinate per-
sonnel and financial
irregularities with im-
mediate effect as well
disciplinary action to
be taken against him.
Speaking about the
suspension, he said
that just like in line
with CM’s policy of
zero tolerance against
corruption and crime,
Strict action will be
taken against those
found guilty of corrup-
tion in the department.
He added that Direc-
tor General Tourism
had made a surprise
inspection of Regional
Tourism Office Luc-
know on March 31, 2022
at 10:15 and during the
inspection found that a
personnel named
Gayur Ahmed who was
the Tourism Officer
was absent since 1 July,
2021 and another per-
sonnel named Mukul
Verma who was the
Tourism Information
Officer was absent
since 1 February, 2022
but yet Regional Tour-
ism Officer Anupam
Srivastava had not tak-
en any action against
both the personnel who
had not taken medical
leave as per rules.
It was found that
without recommenda-
tion of the Medical
Council salary was be-
ing credited to the ac-
count of these person-
nel this falls under fi-
nancial irregularities.
Singh said that Anu-
pam was also found
guilty of not forwarding
the proposals regarding
tourism development
and beautification of
Palia’s mythological
site, Pandey Baba Tem-
ple to the government.
First India Bureau
Allahabad: The Alla-
habad High Court on
Tuesday granted inter-
im bail to Samajwadi
Party leader Azam
Khan in a case regis-
tered under enemy
property law. However,
Khan will not be re-
leased as last week a
new case was lodged
against him in connec-
tion with granting rec-
ognition to an institu-
tion on forged docu-
ments.
While granting bail
to Khan, the High
Court directed the Dis-
trict Magistrate Ram-
pur to take possession
of the enemy property
situated in the campus
of Jauhar University
and raise a boundary
wall and barbed wire
around it, thereby tak-
ing physical posses-
sion of the property in
dispute by June 30.
Justice Rahul
Chaturvedi further di-
rected that on comple-
tion of the above-men-
tioned exercise to the
satisfaction of the DM
Rampur, the interim
bail of Azam Khan
shall be converted into
regular bail.
The land in dispute
relates to one Imamud-
din Quereshi s/o late
Badruddeen Qureshi,
earlier resident of Luc-
know, who after the
partition, relinquished
the citizenship of India
and migrated to Paki-
stan. The property left
behind by Qureshi was
declared as Evacuee
Property and vested
with the ‘Custodian’ of
the State.
Imran Ullah appear-
ing for Azam Khan ar-
gued that no construc-
tions were raised on
the disputed land, it
was lying vacant, en-
circled by land of the
university.
The court on this
questioned as to how
and under what cir-
cumstances the proper-
ty in question was en-
circled within the Uni-
versity premises, and
later observed, “In-
deed, this is the crook-
ed way of usurping the
property from the days
of partition. It is the
custodian who has the
right, title over the
property in question.
The applicant, being a
Chancellor of the Uni-
versity, is a rank tres-
passer.”
The court while al-
lowing the bail plea ob-
served, “However, as
bail is a right of any
accused and jail is ex-
ception, therefore, on
humanitarian ground
this Court keeping in
view the applicant’s de-
teriorating health, old
age and the period un-
dergone in jail, is con-
sidering the applica-
tion of bail be allowed.”

Azam in enemy property case
‘PROPERTY GRABBER’
The court observed, “It is well established that the
applicant Mohd Azam Khan was out for anyhow
grabbing the property which is already earmarked as
Enemy Property by exploiting his position as a Cabinet
Minister. It is simply amusing and surprising that a
Cabinet Minister is stooping down to take away the
Enemy Property by applying all foul means and tricks
and now trying to delink and disassociate himself from
the property in dispute.”

OBJECTIONABLE COMMENTS

able comments against Prime Minister Narendra

ting obscene material) and 153 A (spreading disharmo-
ny among people) of the Information Technology Act for

Jaiveer Singh orders suspension of Regional
Tourism Officer on charges of indiscipline
Lucknow (PTI): Op-
posing Raj Thackeray’s
proposed next month
visit to Ayodhya, BJP
MP Brij Bhushan Sha-
ran Singh on Tuesday
held a roadshow here
and said that it was his
“personal protest”
against the Maharash-
tra Navnirman Sena
chief for “insulting
North Indians”, and the
saffron party (BJP) has
nothing to do with it.
BJP Kaiserganj MP,
who was one of the
leaders to participate in
Ram temple movement,
had earlier warned
Thackeray that he will
not be allowed to enter
the city till he tendered
a public apology for
“humiliating north In-
dians”.
“I want to clarify that
it is my personal protest
(against MNS Chief Raj
Thackeray) and it has
nothing to do with my
party (BJP). I am firstly
scion of Lord Ram, then
North Indian and in the
last MP of the BJP,”
Singh told reporters.
“Raj Thackeray is not
a ‘dabang’ (heavy-
weight) but a ‘chuha’
(rat). I have support
from Marathas. I con-
sider Chhatrapati Shi-
vaji Maharaj as my ide-
al. Marathas can come,
I can give my life to wel-
come them. My protest
is against one person
(Raj Thackeray) not en-
tire Maratha clan”, he
said.
He said if Raj Thac-
keray does not tender a
public apology, protests
will be staged against
his visit to UP, Bihar
and Jharkhand.
Brij Bhushan was an
accused in the case of
R a m j a n m a b -
hoomi-Babri masjid
structure, which was
demolished by Kar Se-
vaks in Ayodhya on De-
cember 6, 1992.
On April 17, Raj Thac-
keray had announced
in Pune that he would
visit Ayodhya on June 5
to seek blessings of
Lord Ram.

‘PK... THE IDEA CRAVES FOR...’
rovidentially,
PK was born in
1977, the year
when the dark
clouds of an
E m e r g e n c y
period were be-
ing scattered under pres-
sure from a disjointed
opposition. As PK grew
up, his brilliant mind,
charisma and passion for
clean politics took him
on a “rollercoaster ride,”
as he aptly tweeted on
April 2.
Over-anxious, ill-in-
formed biased journal-
ists/anchors, along with
cynical, envious and in-
secure politicians keep
trying to tie PK down and
brand him inside a small
pen. They call him over-
ambitious, a fox, a hedge-
hog, a snake or even a
trojan horse. To their ut-
ter frustration, such in-
sinuations and dirt does
not stick to him because
what they see in him are
their reflections.
PK is a driven man on
a mission, and as he says,
with a “quest to be a
meaningful participant
in Democracy” These
lofty ideals just do not go
down anybody’s throat
owing to their cynicism,
corruption and rejection
of the truth.
They can neither deci-
pher his outer Calm
(Prashant), nor the inner
sprightliness of a Colt
(Kishor). He stands tall,
sits straight and speaks
the truth. This conduct
belies the chicanery of
most of the Legislators
and so-called “guardi-
ans” of the Fourth Es-
tate. The fact that the
Executive is the hidden
steering wheel in this
conspiracy, is another
story
, for another day !!
So what does a man of
such character equani-
mous passion do ?? He
does what his idol MK
Gandhi did !!....... That
great soul shed every-
thing, including most of
his clothes, and went to
his people for a deeper
understanding of real In-
dia.
When PK sensed that it
was time to shed most of
these power-hungry, in-
corrigible, self-seeking
“owners” of political
parties, he tweeted this
simple eloquent mes-
sage as a master commu-
nicator: “ .....Time to go
to the Real Masters, THE
PEOPLE, to better un-
derstand the issues the
path to “Jan Suraj” - Peo-
ple’s Good Governance !!
It is as obvious as to-
morrow’s sunrise that it
will be an uphill task for
PK.........a start from
scratch. But then, which
mountain was con-
quered by landing on the
peak by parachute ?? All
climbs to the summit be-
gin from the little base
camps.
Since we Indians are
so besotted by our Cine-
ma, it would be apt to
analogise PK with a hero
of Hindi Movies. PK can
be fairly compared to the
quintessential actor: Ra-
jendra Kumar. Apart
from the resemblance
demeanour, he
also carries the
Midas touch of
the “Silver Jubilee Ku-
mar”. That was an era
when a movie’s success
was measured by the
number of
s c r e e n -
ings in a particular thea-
tre, rather than the 00-100
crore weekend sprint. PK
is a marathon man with
the patience, stamina
strategy for such a run.
His Midas touch has
been proven
by his
ability to push potential
but marginal wins into
landslide victories, each
every time. The lone
UP failure proved to be
the exception to his rule.
All those who did lend
him an ear and actioned
his strategy walked away
with a minimum of 70
per cent of the elected
legislators !!
It would not be too far-
fetched to call PK the
“Landslide Kishore”,
though he would surely
shun this presumptuous
restrictive Brand
name.
Amongst the wicked
villains Rajendra Kumar,
like PK, was the prover-
bial boy-next-door, the
ideal son, brother, hus-
band and top-class pro-
fessional. A toiling Hero
for Mother India.
As PK heads for the
dusty villages of his
home-state Bihar, it is to
be seen if this self-effac-
ing man with the wisdom
certitude of a sage, will
take his mission to Gan-
dhian peaks.
Most will say that my
imagination is running
wild like a Colt !!
But isn’t it the same
IDEA that we all crave??
