WHAT AN IRONY

Dr. Binayak sen, the messiah of marginalised society is convicted and put behind bars, is it for being a philanthropist and for opting to dedicated his life to work in rural India instead of being a 'money minting'' talking nostalgia' NRI doctor in a western country?? one wonders..!!While the 'Rajas' of this world who loot public exchequer  walk scot free with the joined support of Judiciary ,
Executive and fourthestate combined! This is a defining moment in the history of Indian democracy when as a citizen of this country you should  hang your face down in absolute shame!! Where are  we heading to? What's happened to our so called value system and the fundamental rights of democracy?Is not it time to wake up and protest against all these undoings instead of being a  mute spectator to the drama debates and pseudo journalism that is on display out there??
It hurts to watch a generation old and young being decapacitated and being the' couch potatoes' slumped in to their sofas in front of TVchannels watching these real time incidents just like another episode of a reality show in progress!Wish a mass movement is in the making some where to topple this situation and am dying to be a tiny pebble in it!
