Another episode in the game of family politics

For quite a while now, numerous confusions & controversial issues have been doing rounds in the DMK family. To add up to the existing confusions, the DMK supremo & the Tamil Nadu’s CM Karunanidhi have announced that his daughter Kanimozhi is going to be nominated for the Rajya Sabha member post. Though this was expected as soon as Dayanidhi Maran was fired out of office, this has triggered a newer controversy now.

Does he (Karunanidhi) thinks that he’s the sole person responsible to run the country and can make anybody into anything? He made his son a minister, his grandson as another minister. Now he’s trying to bring his daughter into the post of his grandson. Looks like some day or other he’s going to make his pet dog a prime minister of India and we still have to salute that PM. I definitely believe that there are more seniors available in the party when compared to his daughter Kanimozhi. That being the case, why didn’t he choose someone else from his own party? Is DMK deprived of well experienced politicians? I wouldn’t buy that point for sure. This whole thing is now qualified to be called as a massacre of the democracy. People like Hitler & Mussolini fought with people face to face in the war front and killed a lot of people. Everyone who went for a fight knew very well what probably might happen. Whereas in our case, people like Karunanidhi are simply working from the roots like deadly parasites and they think that the general public is their host. The make tones of money out of us; enjoy all the benefits as a legislator and will die and someday will be cremated with ornamental honor some day. Before he passes away, he’s clearly trying to make sure that his kids are educated well about how to make money in the disguise of politics.

These are those guys who promised without shy that “You vote us to power & We’ll give you a color TV…”; When people were dying out there without a single meal. If at all they have some respect for the people & the designations they hold, we can expect some action of justice from them. But these are not of those kinds and so we can’t expect anything good to happen out of these people.

Would we ever get a good leader?
