In days when emotions run high and melodrama defines politics, the country has lost a very astute gentleman and a simple leader for a politician. Parrikar was known for his simplicity and uncomplicated personality  in political circles. At a time when educational qualification is not a must as far as becoming leaders in BJP is concerned, Parrikar had this rare credit of being the first IIT graduate to become a chief minister of a state.

One of the major achievements of coalition government in the state is to have successfully and uncomplicated closure of seat sharing deal. CM Kumaraswamy kept repeating that they are not beggars by that way warning the coalition partner Congress of their requirement of seats. If there was a difference of opinion in seat sharing it would have had its impact not only on the lok Sabha elections but also on the government that is running the state.

Every year, after the SSLC and PUC exam timetables are out, another declaration comes out. And that would be about the teachers threatening to boycott the valuation. Every year teachers keep threatening the government that they would boycott PUC valuation if their demands are not met.

The secret agenda of BJP is not so secret anymore. Having successfully split people in the name of caste, and faith, BJP aka Sangh Parivar has started with its objections against the constitution that has been accepted by all. The intolerance of brahminical mindset against the constitution written by a Dalit scholar is out in the open. The conspiracy against the constitution written by Baba Saheb Ambedkar that considered the welfare of all communities, has been on since long.

Three men claiming to be from CID, went to researcher and thinker Ram Puniyani’s house, and told him they were there because his family member had applied for a passport. But Puniyani was taken by surprise because no one from his family had applied for passport. He told them that and yet the strangers didn’t leave. They began asking him very intriguing questions about his personal life, and job etc. Finally, they left him with a very disturbing veiled threat.

Finally, the date for celebrating democracy has been announced. In the given scenario, people fear the festivals in our country. Police come wielding lathis during any festival of any faith in the streets. Deputy Commissioner calls for ‘celebration of the festival’ in peaceful manner. Peace meetings are held time and again. Common people pray to god that the festival should end without any complications.

Even before the Lok Sabha elections are announced, the politics in Mandya region is already gaining volume. Caste and cinema is ruling people’s minds these days. Now Mandya is witnessing the culmination of these two. In the backdrop of actor and politician Ambarish’s demise, his wife Sumalatha is trying to gain entry into politics by riding the sympathy wave. But Congress is hesitant to offer ticket to Sumalatha owing to the fact that the party has already submitted Mandya constituency to JD(S).

Having pushed the country back into few years during the rule economically, financially, and socially, Modi government has now set aside the agenda of development and is engaging people with emotional aspects. The Pulwama incident and aftermath were part of this game plan of BJP.
