It becomes even more pathetic

Another small post.  It was quite sad seeing people stranded on railway platforms and in trains since there was the rail roko.  As if this was not enough the Osmania University Student JAC - 2 (obviously there are more than one) has given a call for a 48 hour train roko in and around Hyderabad.  The most disconcerting thing is anyone can now give a bandh, rasta roko or any other call that will inconvenience common people.  Even more frightening is the fact that the duration of bandhs is steadily increasing.  I fear that we are on the verge of going the Gorkha Land agitators way, where bandhs are for weeks at a time.  My trepidations have hit the roof when I have read the threat that all essential services such as water, electricity, health care will also be paralysed.  Who are the agitator's targetting?  Common people?  What for?  I can already see some answers, if we don't do this then no one is listening to us.  We will burn our trees so as to ensure that someone will help us to build a house.  Maybe that is what it is, maybe not.  The people on the other side of the divide are feeling left out of the fun and games.  So in order to ensure that there is equality here, they too have promised to get into the act.  Mr. J.C. Diwaker Reddy went to meet Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu to enlist his help for the agitation on the other side. But Mr. Naidu is made of sterner stuff, so he steadfastly refused to budge from his perch on the wall or the fence if you like.  I would like to remind him of a lyric from a Dire Straits song, "Once Upon A Time In The West".  It goes "Sitting on a fence can be a dangerous course, you might even catch a bullet from a peace keeping force".  Somehow I think Mr. Naidu has been hit by the bullet, but he does not realize it.  Pathetic isn't it?  And what to say of the good Chief Minister who tells us all that the state administration has been crippled.  I hope it doesn't get anymore pathetic.
