Rahul Gandhi. I had really started gaining respect for him, trying to forget all the deeds by his father like an outrageous Sikh riots*, Bofors Case, etc. Rahul Gandhi hardly ever spoke negatively about any of his counterparts and almost never threw mud at other. He pulled off a brave thing by travelling in Mumbai local against the will of Raj 'bol-bachhan' Thackeray. This was probably the crest of the admiration that I had for him.
But why the hell is he quiet over various events happened in last 3 months or so?! In fact, not only silent, he has disappeared totally from public.
Kashmir is boiling, CWG corruption nothing short of utter shamelessness#, Railway accidents touching an all time high, Inflation accompanied by lakhs of tonnes of food grains being wasted in FCI compounds, ... and so on. Now, where is our 'Oh so brave' Rahul Gandhi. Even our 'Oh so Good and clean' PM Manmohan Singh is quiet on these issues. What are they busy with? Is Rahul Gandhi busy with Veronique?! Is Manmohan Singh busy diverting party funds from Swiss banks?!
The silence and invisibility over all the events by Rahul Gandhi has only managed to pull down my respect for him from a Crest to a Trough.
*Just read a document which quoted Rajiv Gandhi on arrival at Palam airport in 1984 after Indira Gandhi's murder, "My mother has been shot dead, What are you doing here? Go, and take revenge. .... "
# A 4,000 rupees toilet tissue paper roll for CWG Village? .. I would rather settle with Constipation!!
