123...What is LEFT???

At 22, While I was still wet behind my ears, and in my first assignment as a Project Leader, I was conducting a feasibility study for a power major. It was during this Market research, I did get an opportunity to understand the power woes of India. Needless to say, the project was a ultra mega flop. Trying to enjoy this monumental victory, I gulped down 10 bottles of beer - believe me, I drank them all without puking (for all those who know my Beer Quotient, you can ignore this).

Hyper-demand for power in case of a "transforming" nation (Courtesy: US state Dept for having moved India from underdeveloped to developing and now to transforming nation) like ours, cannot be over-emphasized. Economists and few politicians claim, this strategic Civilian nuclear programme with the US would do India many good. But in this case, I firmly believe, the left is right. Had it not been for the left, the BJP would have sent troops to Iraq and we would have supported a wrong cause, a cause which had left .6 million dead and 2 million homeless, a cause which had successfully dethroned dictatorship only to build a nation of graveyard and feed through the oil pipes, a few rich rodents in the US. Left, would be correct in this case too and I don't see it as pro-Chinese. Americans are probably are the most friendliest guys, but their leaders are not.

Americans see the Middle Kingdom as a threat to their unipolar world, a threat which might question their hegemony and their never ceasing heinous crimes. Reactions from US on our Pokhran I & II, Uncle Sam' Machiavellian policies with Pakistan, Afghan, Iran,etc(you know, the list is endless) should be pondered on before hugging the US of A which would stab us with its traditional double standard foreign policies.

India can still leverage on Coal based production of electricity(NTPC produces environment friendly electricity at the mouth of coal pit heads) and tap non-conventional energy resources than trusting a chameleon with a venomous snake's tongue kissing the growth of India. Meanwhile, Dr. Singh, should develop a robust foreign policy and focus on alternatives than running amok like a headless chicken;-) while I join the left singing ...

Big fella!!
You got blood on yo' face
You big disgrace
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
