Going back to square one ?
One adviser is shuttling between the two ladies for their blessings to hold a free, fair and credible election that the present CA has been promising since his assuming power. As the election date is nearing the atmosphere of holding an election itself is becoming uncertain and more and more people are getting sceptical about it. The so-called dialogues are ending with new demands from the major political parties. While one major party want election under any circumstances, the other wants election as per their own style and prescription. This means that the latter wants an election letting free their musclemen and using money to create a level-playing ground, where their men can help them win.
Another important and noticeable factor is the wholesale bailing out of corrupt politicians by the court. People are watching with great surprise how the already convicted criminals are being released from jail by the blessings of the present CTG. Their party leaders are now publicly vowing that unless the convicted leaders' guilt is proved by the courts, their party will not bar them from contesting election. This clearly indicates that we are getting back our "fuler mata pabitra netas" once again amongst us with more power, courage and iron hands.
We the timid millions will have to salute them, obey them and faithfully accept them, bowing our heads as before. I believe the CTG is leaving behind them a legacy for the next generation that in this small area of 55,000sqm, there is no rule to punish the strong and deliver justice to the poor. So, let us all join in the slogan "long live pre-one-eleven", our permanent destination which we dreamt to abandon!
