Get Serious Mr Home Minister


Come what may, rain, thunder, storm or flood. While country weeps, our home minister has a beatific grin on his inane countenance.

A girl was brutally raped, he was smiling. The girl died, he was still smiling. A bunch of 35 hapless devotees died on the railway station, he had a stupid grin on his face. Another news maker today, an accused in the Delhi rape case commits suicide. The home minister was not only smiling but giggling infront of the cameras.

To be completely un-phased and non-challant in the face of adversity seems to be a virtue in India. In positions of power, I have never seen anyone who is passionate about what he is doing. I think, we systematically reject overt display of passion for your duty.

Today, Italian prisioners jumped parole, Italy has slapped insult by refusing to return the under trials in the fishermen shooting case, and I know, when in a few hours, Shinde will be on TV making a statement in his evasive style, he would still be smiling.

Stop smiling Mr HM and please conduct serious business in your ministry. You have a long way to go.
