YSR


Sometime Yesterday afternoon at home, when we switched on the TV there was a big flash news which says the Andhra chief minister Mr.YSR is missing. It sounds very odd and strange initially till I understood the complete story that the chopper in which he is travelling was not able to trace by any of the technology that the government is using and the rescue operations are started to find the chopper, the mystery continued all through the night, meanwhile all the TV channels found a HOT CAKE news and realized the best opportunity to increase their TRP ratings by showing the same stuff again and again and again.As the mystery continued, everyone slept and the mystery continued till the morning and CM is STILL not found. As a layman, this brings to a basic question to my mind since the chopper was maintained by the government, will it be the same as most of the services that are under the government control. I hoped that the particular chopper will be better, but then hope will always remain hope when no one deals with reality.

And when the truth really came out at some time today morning, it hit me for a few seconds knowing that the chopper crashed and all the bodies were charred. Deep condolence to all his fans, family members, all who like and most importantly to all those who hate him.

I like him not because I know everything, all good and bad he did to the people of Andhra. Infact, I hardly know what he did during his regime. I like him because of the way he had crawled to the top and literally grabbed the position and hold on to it for 5 years and won again second time inspite of the stiff competition from other parties. I miss him not because Andhra politics don't find another leader, but all those fights he had with Mr.Naidu to recent entrant Mr.Chiranjeevi at assembly. I hate him not because of the corruption that may people claim has increased during his regime, but his death resulted in the delay of the most awaited film "JOSH".

While I see many of the opposition leaders showing grief, condolence his death. Within themselves, they know that they have lost a competitor which will make their job easier to get into power at least next time. All of us has our own reasons to condolence his death...

Meanwhile, Let his soul rest in peace...
