Why we MUST blame it on Raja

niramaxAs a true spirited neo-liberal, I want Andimuthu Raja’s head on a platter. Somebody must take the fall for the 2G scam and it can-not and should not be my benefactors in the corporate sector who very graciously bribed Raja into scamming the ex-chequer.

The folks who made millions divesting their stakes, are sheer innocent market traders who use the benevolence of crony capitalism to make a bit of spare change. Going after the people who bribed Raja (God forbid!) would mean that we would have to hold some of our employers or clients to the same high standard of probity that we would like the Congress and DMK to follow.

That is why I say, take down Raja and take him down quickly, before he starts singing like a tweetie bird on who paid him how much. Take a leaf out of Vir Sanghvi’s book and blame it on Caste politics. Or take a leaf from Arnab’s book – don’t talk about Lavasa and any project that your employers are personally connected with and thump your chest at the politician – and declare that he must go while you place neon halo around your head.

That day must be tomorrow! A day when we gloat in the knowledge that while we got Raja’s head, we let the people who bribed him continue to provide us with value added services like a Vande Mataram caller tune @ Rs 30 a month.

TATA for now!
