Pied Pipers Of Hindustan...

Anna Hazare’s non political party has clearly assumed a huge non sanctioned power through their powerful non manifesto focused at a non governmental piece of legislation… Their non constitutional participation in the non governance of India is a non issue for most people…

But largely speaking, this may not be an Indian phenomenon alone. It seems increasingly the world over non state players are wresting more and more power and public support and the idea of state is increasingly looking quite, well, nonsensical…

I think that the power equations are definitely shifting and a clear proof of that is two most powerful people in India today – Anna and Sonia – are both non state players… (sort of!)

I have a theory on why this is happening and since I am such an authority on the subject of theories, you may take my word to be the gospel… Now, obviously, the state is bad and those who represent the state are rogues and charlatans (almost euphemistic epithets given the experience of CWG, 2G, Mining scam, etc.) to say the least. It is therefore, a very sound reasoning to believe that anything non state or anti state is not only good but it is good in direct proportion to how bad the state is.

So Anna is good. Period… As much as Sonia was good after last Loksabha elections when she played that master stroke and made MMS the PM...

And so are Naxalites who also being non state players and working on (allegedly) the voice of people they represent should come out openly in support of Anna… After all, their anguish is even bigger. While Anna stops at corruption, Naxals go beyond to include exploitation, oppression and a clear pogrom driven persecution amounting to annihilation…

By the way, where is Binayak Sen or Arundhati Roy or Medha Patkar or Menaka Gandhi or Teesta Setalvaad or … Oh forget it… Some people have such parochial mindsets…

Anyhow, since I support Anna and hence am a non state player myself, I am automatically good and my above arguments will but naturally meet your approval. After all, my being a non state player at a time when being so is so hot and sexy naturally assumes that your own free thinking mind and discretion can easily be set aside and preserved for something far more important and exotic in future… (whenever that happens)

Thanks for your support for Anna and to me…

The state is dead, long live the state…

Angrezon Bharat choro...

Mahatma Gandhi ki jai...

P.S. Please do not watch Prakash Jha's AARAKSHAN. They say it unnecessarily pushes you to think which is such a waste. Its much easier when some well meaning leader (state or non state) tells you what to think...
