Moo point

LK Advani decided to bunk the all party meeting and go ahead with his election campaigning. Clearly power is more important than unity in troubled times like this. I sometimes wonder whether they are really interested in the job. Or whether they even comprehend the higher principle which they're supposed to serve.

Having said that, let me just write down here how the all party meeting which went on for 5 hours has been summarised, as said by Pranab Mukherjee. He stated that all the parties collectively condemn the attacks, and they they are deeply saddened by the loss of lives, and the loss of our heroes in the police, and the commando forces.

Well, that's an improvement. We didn't know that the other parties condemned the attacks too. We thought that they were of the opinion that the attacks were a good idea! Thanks for clearing that point, Mr Mukherjee. Amazing that it took you only 5 hours to decide that. Maybe you were merely voicing RR Patil's views during those 5 hours : "Chalta hai".
