Comrades at loggerheads !

The ongoing fight between Kerala CM VS Achuthanandan and state CPI (M) chief Pinarayi Vijayan refuses to abate, even after both of them were suspended from the CPI (M) politburo. The latest issue to have cropped up between the two is related to the legality of AKG Bhavan. After CPI’s Munnar office was demolished by the state government as part of its massive anti-encroachment drive in the hill town, it accused CPI (M) to have built its state headquarters at AKG Bhawan in Thiruvananthpuram on illegal land. Within a fortnight, Malayalam media was agog with stories on AKG Bhawan’s status. The reports were backed by documents showing the area originally allotted to CPI (M) to build its office and where the office was actually built – portraying CPI (M) itself as one of the encroachers in black and white. The Vijayan camp suspects that the documents have been leaked from CM’s office to embarrass him.

Provoking Iran, British style

What was the urgency to confer on the controversial author the prefix ‘Sir’? With the Iran-UK relations in doldrums over the nuclear issue and the recent capture & subsequent release of British marines by the Iranian navy, one would have expected the outgoing Prime Minster Tony Blair to avoid pin-pricking the Iranians. Moreover, with sectarian tempers hitting an all time high in Britain and almost routine aspersions being cast on the loyalty of the British Muslims to their adopted country, resurrecting Rushdie is certainly an ill-timed move. The only path left for the English establishment is to rectify the mistake and re-establish its secular credentials by honouring Dan Brown, the author of Da Vinci Code, with the title of Sir.. If only Rushdie had realized how petty and vindictive the coloniser is and how easily human existence is smoked out by Western bombing. Perhaps he would have then refused to accept knighthood.

We should do what?!? Hug China?

The aftermath of the Pokharan tests in 1998, when George Fernandes claimed that it wasn’t Pakistan but the threat from China that necessitated the nuclear test, created a major furor among the peaceniks and pseudo-intellectuals of this country. But the fact that most of the major powers of the world, including Russia, France and USA, let India off and eventually gave a whisper of a legitimacy through the nuclear deal (currently under negotiations) vindicates that what Fernandes claimed was not a slip of tongue. Even if we keep aside the humiliation that was showered on us by China in 1962 as a thing of the past, for the past two decades China has been consistently arming Pakistan with the most lethal nuclear and missile technology for obvious reasons.
