The title aptly justifies the Indian Politics, cause there has been no half-decade till date which I could cite as the Golden Era of politics. Corruption is so deeply engulfed in Indian system that even the Superheros for whom nothing appeared impossible will fail to fight against the evil of corruption, their powers will surrender to the prevalent force of corruption. The Superheros will retun to their planets or will seize to the power of corruption and start living a life of seclusion if forced to fight the corruption.
The tug of war between the political parties to win/defeat the confidence vote on 22 July 2008 exposed the mockery that is Indian politics. Throwing values to the winds, parties reduced the political process into an auction where votes were sold to the highest bidder. The Parliament show really was the black dawn in the daylight. And what's ironical is all our political parties failed to see beyond their self-interest. The BJP would have never stopped boasting had it been instrumental in signing the historic nuclear deal but opposed it in Parliament for the sake of opposition. The Left parties like always took a U turn when a path of progress was laid ahead of them. When Chandrababu Naidu was Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, he never gave the impression that he was against U.S. imperialism. Yet as an opposition leader, he talked of American hegemony and how the deal was against national interests. Mayawati opposed the deal not because she had any credible arguments against it, but because she was lured by others as the Chief of the Third Front and the next PM if the government collapses. The theathrics of Tuesday will however make no difference to our "Aam Aadmi", since he has yet again decided to be the spectator or rather been the puppet of the politicians.

Sandals - A Tribute
This blog is a memorial to my "sandals", the sandals that served me for 6 years before came the time to say goodbye.
Sandals ohhh the beautiful brown sandals,
The sandals that I bought, After my previous one's were lost.
Though they were quite lovely, But you too are no less.
The loyalty of yours, that saved me from a trillion pebbles & thorns.
Your truely elegant design, that made my feet look fine.
Sandals ohhh the beautiful brown sandals,
Now you are gone and my feets feel quite alone.
