A mute conspirator. That’s exactly what I’d like to call Arjun Singh, the honorable HRD minister. I honestly respect him for his deviance for having dropped a bomb of a hint and then pretending to look helpless because of the Election Commission. Moreover, he conveniently forgets to provide any kind of response on the day he’s supposed to. What ? Does he think that we are some animals who have a short memory span who’ll simply forget ?
Not that he can be blamed really for thinking like that if he does. We, the people, are definitely guilty of having short memory spans many a times. Now I’m not making sweeping statements just like that. The evidence is all around us.
That’s the reason why criminals get elected, the reason why they live freely like any other citizen (but on bail), the reason why cases like Jessica Lal or Chutaliya’s disproportionate assets keep happening again and again in some form or other. It’s simply because we either forget to implicate those responsible, or we forget about the lessons learned. I don’t think I’d be wrong in saying that a lot of cases that come to the attention of the media make a big impact in the beginning, linger on for a while and then just get lost in oblivion.
Some may argue that the short memory span may not be to blame for this. It’s because of the system they’d add. Well I just say its because of the short memory span that the system is able to overshadow in the first place.
Some say ‘learn to go on with life, let go. Forgive. How long can u fight with it after all? It’ll take you down eventually’. Well I just say that if your fight it once and set an example, on top of that if you don’t forget it, such a thing may not happen again.
