WHY DOES NOT HE QUIT ?

Several decades ago, a Keralite Defence Minister enjoying the confidence of the then Prime Minister created a never ending crisis in Kashmir by referring the issue to UN. The UN promptly ordered India to hold a plebiscite to determine whether the people of Kahsmir want to stay with Indian union ignoring the fact that the erstwhile ruler of Kashmir Maharaja Hari Singh had signed an instrument of accession when his people were attacked by intruders from across the borders. Several decades later we continue to placate the people of Kashmir even in the slightest pretext of public anger against continued presense of army. 

Another man from Kerala now happens to be the Defence Minister. Mr.A.K.Antony has a clean image as a politician incorruptible but he has miserably failed in his capacity as Defence Minister a job which was zealously and appreciatively done by George Fernandez. During his time, he had this clash of date of birth with a General who since then has plunged in to politics. The General Mr.Vijay Kumar Singh is now latched up by Aam Adhmi Party. He levelled serious accusations against fellow officers which were fodder to media. the mishandling of this affair caused a huge embarrassment for UPA-II. This time around, Pakistani Armymen shot down 5 of our soldiers in Poonch and the Army released a press note claiming that it was the handiwork of Pakistani Army. Mr.Antony botched up the whole thing when he said in Parliament that people in Pakistan Army uniform did this killing only to correct himself on the light of new facts emerging out of Army General's visit subsequently. 

 

Antony has always been accused of gross inefficiency when it came to matters of administration by his bete noire late Karunakaran. Atleast when he was alive Antony had to be a little careful in presenting his image. But with Karunakaran gone in to eternity, this man has no shame to sit in his chair after such an ugly episode. Why do not you quit and enjoy your evenings in beaches of Cochin instead of proving time and again that you are one of the most inefficient Ministers in Independent India Is Sonia listening?
