From NDA (No Data Available) to CDD (Complete Data Disclosure)!!!?

[Sukla Sen]

How Horrifying!!!

For by far the Corruptest Ever (Rafale, Electoral Bonds, PM Cares Fund and, of course, Modani -- to cite only the top four) Prime Minister!

However, it's, also, a huge blow to the 56" macho image of the Emperor. 

The invincibility stands dented.

At least some of the silent (in-house) disgruntled -- apart from the broad layer of cautious and careful fence-sitters -- now may make bold to start airing their true feelings.

In case it actually happens, both the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra and the just launched farmers' agitation may get to gain new muscles. (In a way, these are all intertwined.)

The atmosphere may undergo a very significant -- who knows maybe even radical -- shift. The air may smell different.

Of course, it's too early.

We must, it goes without saying, keep doing our utmost.

An update.

Modi's Outburst: A Freudian Slip or Brazen Assertion? 

<https://youtu.be/GcmJjds6YmQ>

So, Modispeak:

Krishna + Sudama

= Modi + Adani 

= Modi + Ambani

= Modi + All the Moneybags

"In their legend, Sudama and Krishna study together as children at Sandipani's ashrama, believed to have been at Ujjain. Leading a life of abject poverty, Sudama's wife urges him to go to Krishna, and request his assistance. Carrying some handfuls of parched rice as a gift, Sudama visits his old friend at Dvaraka, who receives him with honour. After discerning Sudama's unrevealed poverty, Krishna creates various luxurious palaces for his friend where his hut had stood, which the former sees when he returns home."

(Ref.: <https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudama>.)

I. "Adani's net worth increased from $8 billion to $140 billion between 2014 and 2022." (Ref.: <https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/adani-magic-started-in-2014-rahul-gandhi-links-groups-rise-to-pm-modi-in-ls/article66482263.ece/amp/>.

II. "Mukesh Ambani's wealth has surged from Rs 1.65 lakh crore in 2014 to nearly Rs 8.08 lakh crore in 2023, marking an impressive four-fold increase." (Ref.: <https://www.businesstoday.in/amp/latest/corporate/story/mukesh-ambani-overtakes-gautam-adani-to-secure-the-richest-indian-title-on-hurun-india-rich-list-401371-2023-10-10>.)

III. Just to compare: "[As per World Hunger Index, released in October 2023] India ranked 111 on a list of 125 countries, and has the highest child-wasting rate in the world at 18.7 per cent, reflecting undernutrition and malnutrition... India’s rank was 55 out of 76 countries in 2014 and it ranked above Bangladesh and Pakistan, though it trailed Nepal and Sri Lanka. It has steadily gone down over the years and now is behind all these countries and even sub-Saharan Africa." (Ref.: <https://www.deccanherald.com/opinion/editorial/take-hunger-index-ranking-seriously-2727934>.)

Thus, the wealth of the selected "Sudama"s just ballooned after the ascension of our "Krishna" to the throne of "Dwaraka". In the case of Adani, the spike is pretty much astronomical.

While the ordinary mortals only languish.

So, the secret is revealed!

By no other than "Krishna" himself.

In this context, however, not to miss that unlike his modern counterparts, the original Sudama was indeed a childhood friend of Kishna and whatever little the poor fellow gifted to Krishna was out of his deep attachment to Him.Not to obtain any quid pro quo. Compared to that, till 31st March 2023, since the inception of the scheme, the BJP has, under the scheme, reportedly received just a paltry sum of Rs. 6,566.125 crore out of a total of Rs. 11,450.!26 crore, i,e, 57,35% -- more than all the parties put together.

Way more important, the Sudama of the legend was no anonymous. He very much had a name and a face; his coordinates were all known.
