The Patna news papers today have quoted Nitish as having said
that the wrist watch of Rajendra babu will be brought back at all costs.
Some time back in Sotheby’s auction crores of rupees from
state exchequer were spent to buy back some utensils etc used by Gandhijee.
Again the greedy auctioneers put forth some other articles and this time Vijay
Mallya bought the items.
The famous people are also human beings and use thousands of material
things in their day to day activities of life. Do we need to retrieve all that
by paying crazy amounts out of this poor country’s coffers? Are we emotionally so weak to be swayed by
symbols and tokenism?
This madness must stop and there must be accountability to
such wastes of public money whosoever misspends.
Taking care of basic needs of the half of the starving population
will certainly give peace to the souls of the great people who sacrificed their
all for the sake of the country. The political gimmicks must end.
