Any sane person must have observed the following things which are the observations/facts during this 20+ day period in Andhra Pradesh.
- Rajasekhar Redddy's departure leaving a leadership vacuum
- Center though have nominated Rosaiah as the chief minister was caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
- He could never proclaim that he is "THE" chief minister for long period ever tried to defend himself that he neither has interest nor the capacity to hold to it. This might have well been the apprehension of being stamped "Disloyal" to Rajasekhara Reddy
- Vested interests and the Media have done their due diligence to evoke the sentiments of the people so that the existing government is not stable for long time.
- The elected members of the assembly instead of seeing the long term interests of the state and how can this situation devastate the morale have submitted themselves to mere sycophancy. (I am not saying here not to be loyal but the state machinery's paralyzation for long would give way to many other things which we are now seeing... )
- Center is ever oblivious to the ground reality have never made either any strong gestures to the MLA's or the State Congress workers for abating this situation.
- The above things lead to a mockery of the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister's position. I bet anybody in Rosaiah's position would have the same situation under such circumstances.
- What Center should have done is
- Explicitly enunciate Rosaiah or who ever is enthroned after Rajasekhar Reddy is going to be permanent or
- Should have replaced the Chief Minister just after a few days with another permanent person
- It did neither of these things only to exacerbate the situation and the Chief Minister could never have any hold on the Administration.
- KCR who has lost almost every ground in Telangana and was not even in a position to contest the polls in Hyderabad while during Rajasekhara Reddy's regime was definitely looking for a right time to regain his lost political ground
- The anarchy and lack of hold on administration was the right moment for him to gain his lost say in the state politics
- What he has done this time "opportune" is the instigating the naive sentiments of the till now alienated section -- "Students" .
- The not so serious section of this group readily joined this commotion, though large section of the sane remained non committed.
- This "untamable" section of the population nether have sufficient vision or mission defined could easily be used for his demagogy since its a double edged sword for the Government to deal with
- With such untamed force and hospitalized fast unto death he achieved 2 things
- Blackmail the section of Politicians of the region emotionally to be part of his supposed struggle
- Put the local and central government which depends on the heresy to take any decision
- All the political parties which were intellectual dwarfs have the following short comings which prompted to commit for passing of any resolution put forth by the state government
- They do not have any perception of either popular sentiment of the state as a whole or
- Any longterm vision / mission or public good as true agenda
- Quick to react in haste for petty political gains and power longing
- Media played a serious spoils sport in this case by
- Repeatedly telecasting the instigating statements / incidents ignoring large section where there is no agitation
- Misquoting the inadvertent remarks
- Prodding the people on the show to such an extent that they loose their though and become emotional
- In this process they blissfully violated the basic tenets of reporting and just focused on TRP ratings.
- Purposefully avoiding intellectual debates on shows which could have a blaming effect on the sentiments and passions of the people.
- He could cajole and force the central government to issue a statement which evoked a quick and huge uproar with the other side of Andhra Pradesh
- The events in the other parts of the state are no less violent and bizarre than Telangana except for the following things
- They lacked the acrimonious language which KCR / TRS used to use.
- They are more logical at least in putting forth why do they want united Andhra with proper statistics at hand with respect to how much of development is done in these 50 years in the 3 regions of the state
- People like Undavalli are ready for a debate with complete statistics and were conceding the secession of the state with logic
- Events over a period of time forced the Center to do another "BLUNDER" with out much understanding of the reality which seemed like a "U" turn of the previous readiness for Telangana.
- All are oblivious for the following things:
- The divisions are now so deep that the emotions are divided and there is no more brother hood amongst the insane people which are unfortunately the deciding factors
- The division is inevitable as even if they are forced to live together there is absolutely no responsibility or undertaking for the lives / property of the "settlers"
- An authenticate, confirmed, amicable alternative which can restore the things immediately to the faith of the normal peoples lives, properties that the Government exists and we are living in a civic society
Yesterday when I was in Mumbai somebody was disparagingly talking about AP people for their emotionality and irrationality rather than that of logic and EQ wondering how could there could be so many people in IT.
Keeping aside the comments, I am wondering whether we can expect a peaceful state(s) , can there be any "TRUE LEADER(s)" in any of the political party who can raise above their parochial outlook and can stand for PEACE.
