Who ever called Laloo to IIM must be squirming now

Our politicians deserve a salute because nowhere I have seen such amusing characters. Had this incident not being a serious matter of life and death, I would have thought it was some stand up comedian joke. Bihar is one of the worst affected states from drought. The farmers heavily dependent on rainfalls are now using guns to protect their water. Some areas of Bihar like the Sitamarhi and Muzaffarpur districts, had to face a situation of floods due to the overflowing Bagmati river. Admist such natural crisis, one would think that the state leaders would be engaged in serious planning to cruise the affected public towards a life of normalcy. Alas! This is India and we are talking about Bihar. Mr Laloo Prasad Yadav, the prominent leader from Bihar and the ex Railway Minister of India who is often credited with the turnaround of world’s largest employer, the India Railway, is more worried about arousing the wrath of Sun God. He is accusing the current Chief Minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar of eating biscuits during Solar Eclipse. The poor people of Bihar may even follow him owing to the low literacy rates in the state. This is the same man who was invited to prestigious platforms like IIMs to narrate his success story of a historical turnaround. Encouraging such blatant superstition in a crisis like this, is something that only our politicians can get away with.
