The Baba, and the Blacksheep,part 2

The Blacksheep and blackmoney won hands down on the Black Night of June4th/5th.
The Saffron-Knight was bearded at his camp. Ram ki Leela!
We have seen this unholy sight in the last few weeks in many parts of the world. When people rise, governments quiver, whether they be democraies or dictatorships. The prompt response is the use of State Arsenal-- lathi, tear gas, thadi paar... anything to crush protest against a government in power.
Independent India's darkest hours were in 1975, though pre-independence history chronicles numerous instances which imperial power dealt with all its might. The Congress (UPA--2?) governments handling of the Baba and Blackmoney issue is a little reminiscent of the pre-1975 events leading to the clamp-down of an Internal Emergency.
One would have thought the series of massive scams involving people in power were cause enough to invoke Emergency powers to unravel the mysterious happenings via fast-track courts and restore the money and the integrity due to the nation. Instead, the protesting people are targetted. The offenders are relatively safe , under police and legal protection. Aam aadmi and a 'yoga-guru' with obvious following among the administrators, face lathis and tear-gas. Probably the Congress was giving a demo of what their predecessors experienced in the 1st half of the 20th century--- this is what built the Congress into a perpetual contender for administrative power in India. And YOU chaps talk of little things such as a few scams!
There is room for many more you know! In Kaliyug Kalki Baba will come only when there is much corruption... here a scam, there a scam, everywhere a scam-scam. Kalki Baba... sorry, Kal ka Baba. He will come riding a huge mandate to give India the good governace it deserves. He will be known as Rahul Gandhi, at the moment the darling Baba of the Congress and its baba-brigade. Baba Rahul will come.
Meanwhile don't be misled by Baba Ramdev. We have chased him away, anyway.
