 A Feast of Vultures

Reading Josy Joseph's above book reminded me of AGNoorani's ministers misconduct,forty years back ,detailing how Kairon of Punjab,biju patnaik of odisha,et al tweaked the rules during their rule to develop their states as  a facade to build their finances.

This book mostly dealt with the murder of wahid of east west airlines,unusual rise of goyal of jet airways and the acts of omission and commission of the successive ministries of civil aviationi.

"....in the face of powerful politician-businessman Nexus,it would be yet another Indian miracle if democracy survives and flourishes ." Is a telling observation.

Industrialists becoming members of parliament and occupying parliamentary  committess on subjects of their business interests, etc make the democratic governance a mockery 

One has to agree with mallyas following poem

  "A Nation that prides itself in Modern self-sufficiency Is it real for FEW -and a dream for ALL?"
