After all the codswallop, we have UPA-III, garnished with RSS-education. In a matter of four months, it is the Nth time that the current government choose to follow the earlier regime.
It's their prerogative, but it is a bit funny to see some of the blind followers still choke themselves out of admiration when they pronounce "The Name". There is a very recent successful politician who peddled HOPE & CHANGE to win two consecutive terms, but now having an approval rating so low that even George Bush found very difficult to stoop to.
I wonder if the Nobel committee mistook Kailash Satyarthi for someone else from India. Otherwise, it would have a perfect start for a possible repeat.
Or would not have been. Approval is hinged only slightly on performance, but largely on carefully crafted perception & even deeper cultural currents. So, who cares?
