Did you see what that Kanhaiya and his lot were saying? Are they inclusive people? Are they not creating divides? And if you read this blog two years from now will you not be straining your brain trying to remember who Kanhaiya Kumar is?
If you fail to recollect here is the gist of the story... An event is held in Delhi's JNU campus. The attendees call Afzal Guru, a person who was hanged for his part in the Indian Parliament attack, as martyr. Media flashes this event all over. Police arrest the student leader there by the name of Kanhaiya Kumar. When this person is being presented to the court, the lawyers allegedly assault this man. Overnight this guy becomes a hero. He is released on bail, but the court gives him stern warning to watch what he says.
I feel strongly that this entire event which transpired was to a certain extent staged. Was it staged from day one or was it staged after it got the media attention, I do not know. KK seems to be heavily aligned to the communist parties who in turn are sympathetic towards China.
Then one night I am watching TV after a hard days toil, and I am watching Barkha Dutt interviewing some author. The author at one point says "In India we are on verge of a student revolution", or something to the same effect. And I am like...but why? And how do you know this sitting in US of A?
This somehow fills me up with doubts...are all these people being funded by somebody? Are these so called intelligentsia trying to create a fake plot to overthrow the democratically elected government?
And if this being done here then could not the Arab spring be similar?
