Its been many months since i've written anything in my beloved blog. Yes, I moved into a new profile with a lot of work and very little free time, yes the shenanigans in my personal life keep me busy and with all that is going on in my life, when I come home at the end of the day, I am too deflated to write anything.
There is something else I did in the meantime. I joined Twitter. It brought a lot of changes into my interactions with my external stakeholders. My interactions and inputs became more frequent and my responses, well, became limited to 140 characters.
I'm not happy about it, yes, but I am enjoying the political sniping I get to do there. I went on Twitter following the many politicians and journalists who are active there, and definitely wanted an opportunity to put in my own views to them, and express displeasure at the atrocious and unaccountable way the country is being run by the UPA. Being on Twitter does give me the views and opinions of a whole lot of people, including an entire gamut of pro-Congress tweeters and reading their views and opinions really makes me wonder if we are talking of the same India!
The cauldron of national politics is certainly boiling, and it is becoming increasingly clear that Rahul Gandhi may not be the person to stand up as the Family's choice for Prime Minister. He has said he is neither marrying nor is interested in the post of the Prime Minister. Sonia Gandhi's health is failing, and keeping aside the opacity, secrecy and unaccountability of their actions, she runs the Congress like a warden of a boarding school. Of course, some students do get away and commit scams worth thousands of crores without her knowing, but then, who am I to doubt the integrity of the woman who gave up the post of the Prime Minister for the good of the country! ;-)
