Hitler Didi

First Trivedi got the boot for spoiling Didi's agenda. His only fault was that he tried to infuse fresh lease of life in railways but an imminent fare increase was seen and his refusal to budge under Didi's dictat was seen as blasphemous. The next casualty was the media. English dailies were banned in the govt. libraries in bengal because didi feels they corrupt minds of people. Really? And when didi was asked would she even tell people of her state what to read and what not to in future, her response reportedly was she would not hesitate to do so if she felt that was necessary. The latest casulty is a poor professor who was arrested and beaten -up by police for circulating a cartoon strip of Didi. Poor soul is terrified and now feels threatened for his and his family's life. And we thought in this country we have freedom of speech! Transfer of tigress cop etc. are all icing on the cake. The writing on the wall is very clear anyone who goes against didi would face the music. The classic dilemma of how much control is good perhaps confronts Didi. Organizations too that  over-control face risk of alienating and disengaging people. Unfortunately there are many likes of Didi in many organizations too. anyways, the last I heard was a new soap starting on television titled 'Hitler Didi'. Nice title...what say?

very nicely said sir...and Hitler didi also suits her, but don't you think that a little bit of tuff stand has to be taken to bring the state on track which was suppressed by CPM from many decades.....she has to keep in mind that every citizen has its owm fundamental rights which should not be harmed.

Hi anup, tough stands for ego massage can't be for greater good. And undermining intelligence of people ix one of the greatest follies. Organizations or individuals who do that suffer from narcissist hangovers.

well said. The way you quoted a politician with a media serial is fun and also makes a lot of sense.The political class always forgets that they are peoples servants and destined to contribute for wellness of the society.Ironically its the other way around.I feel the railways should be privatised like the roadways.why isnt that happening? the central govt can introduce private players in railways as they did for exploiting and exploring the natural resources with understanding benefits for few industrial groups.
