Who says Gandhism is all about Bapu and his ideals! In 2008,its about Gandhis-young or old!
Arjun singh can vouch for it.He spoke as a veteran politician and soon found his place among the political backbenchers. Perhaps,he mistook his old age as a coffer of political experience and gave unasked advice about his sacrifice in a public function. He soon found himself at catch 22 situation.He was not only given a cold shoulder treatment by UPA Chairperson,Ms Sonia Gandhi but many politicians condemned his action as a subtle form of rebellion.
Now, Arjun singh has made a public statement where he claims to have sworn my loyalty to Gandhi family before Pd.Nehru.
Ironically,this will give him nothing but barbs from entire nation which feels Congress is all about first family !
If Arjun Singh has erred ,then Akhilesh Das has cashed in on anti gandhism . He spoke against Rahul Gandhi to gain entry in BSP camp.Media reports inform, Das is a political non entity but his anti gandhis rhetoric has made him a general secretary of BSP. Well, political analysts believe anything that goes against Gandhis is cherished by BSP .
It looks, the real Gandhi-the naked fakir is nolonger adored in his own nation. Each week,one may read a major news story about what Rahul eat or where Mrs Vadhera went! It is a hard truth that in coming decade, one may know about Gandhi familiy but hardly talk about Mahatma .
There is nothing to be ashamed of!Afterall,this is an era of Neogandhism.

Respected Sh.Krishnan,
The way he presented his credentials , reminded us of nothing but a proverbial flatterer.
As a member of Union Cabinet,he is under oath to respect constinutional norm but here he went gaga over his first family.
Let us not forget that it was not Nehru ji but Mahatma of the naked millions who was the real Gandhi!
warm regards,
yours,
ashish

Dear Asish,
What a great fall ! From the pinnacle of national sacrifice and glory the name Gandhi has fallen on the mouths of men whose existence in the political lime-light depends upon. That the loyalty has to be so explicitly declared in public so as not fall in to bad times when the position in the cabinet could even be rattled !.Arjun is like cockroach and will survive the worst of political disasters and challenging environments.
