I have been following the election drama in the news channels and all possible online newspapers and am seeing a pattern here..
Every crook that is entering politics seems to be getting a ticket from UP! Thank about it, Sanjay Dutt, who has lived all his life in Mumbai, suddenly realizes that he has ‘roots’ in Lucknow, calls it his ‘second home’????
Azharuddin, somebody who could not even play sports with honesty has jumped in the fray – originally from Hyderabad, is now going to contest from Moradabad, UP! Wonder what roots he found there? I am sure they will think up something!!
And not to mention, Varun Gandhi – he probably has more of ‘roots’ in Pilibhit, as that was his mother’s constituency.. As for whether, there is any other reason, he could be allotted that constituency – is anybody’s guess!!
So what is it about UP, that seems to be attract every crook in town? Is it because the masses have been kept mired in illiteracy, casteism and regressive traditions, to ensure that they are easily swayed by our ‘leaders’?? While I am not denying that every region has it’s share of crooked politicians, I just wonder if it would have been so easy for Sanjay Dutt to go and contest in a place like, say, Bengal?
Isn’t it, also not more than a little ironic, that the 2 states that send the maximum number of MPs to the Lok Sabha, seems to have the dirtiest politicians??
