President, A dent per se!

The latest 'Kaun banega Rashtapati' turmoil looks like the classic Mahabharat scene from the much acclaimed movie 'Jaane bhi Do Yaaro'!Pratibha Patil Shekhawat, Bhairon Singh Shekhawat or Dr.Abdul Kalam?At the end of the day its,'ye sab kya horaha hai'!

Well this is what I have observed!the last time when Dr.Abdul Kalam was elected as the President of India, there was no such sensationalism or what they call "The not quite libel" kinda attitude of the media. Again the media guys are doing a great job and theres no pun intended in that statement.With the kind of competition, its fair enough to say that the white papers are painted for yellow journalism and that it cant be avoided!But wait a minute...blame it all on the Media...?na!Very inappropriate.

Lets see!The Italian born Sonia Gandhi decides that Pranab Mukherjee(The wannabe Prime Minister of India) or Shivraj Patil(The home minister, now sent home) would be the nominees for the 2007 presidential election. It was obvious that the ever grumpy BJP(Buzurk Jeevith Party) had a chance to cry again!They desperately kept searching for their candidate.I heard Bhairon Singh Shekhawat was their candidate. But no Sushma Swaraj said that we would support Bhairon Singh Shekhawat but he should stand independently!(I had no idea of what she meant).The Left(In my opinion, the critics who bare no responsibility in Indian Politics) were waiting for someone to take a move.

Suddenly the UPA says guess what its Pratibha Patil.(I immediately googled to see who Pratibha Patil was).Shes the Governor of Rajasthan. So the Left who were waiting and didnt know when to strike said oh yeah its Pratibha Patil.Now Pratibha Patil( whose known to talk to ghosts and is now the probable President of India) also has a Shekhawat in her name.But then she also has a Patil in her last name.So Shiv Sena was all for Patil. In a rare event yet again, the BJP was frustrated and thought they were betrayed by the sons of the soil.The sena supremo also hinted that he wants Sharad Pawar as the Prime Minister.But rumour has it that Sharad Pawar wants to be the President of ICC. Holy cow! somebody stop my mind from where its gonna go next.Meanwhile UNPA(Underperformed national progressive allaiance) says, wait we have a new candidate and that's Dr.Abdul Kalam. Now am sure even Dr.Kalam was surprised and thought wow I didn't know even I was in the race. This reminds me of Shehanshah Akbar making an entry in the Mahabharat scene in 'Jane Bhi Do Yaaro'!

Well the depressing fact is that, its a shame that the presidential race is being made a mockery of! The politicians could at least pretend and not make it so blatantly conspicuous of what their motive is!The commander in Chief is the supreme power and lets respect it!
