Salman Khurshid's descent from decency to despicable behaviour has been rapid and shocking. He has hinted ever so crudely that Arvind Kejriwal can only enter Farukhabad, but he cannot exit. The minister threatens that his ink will be replaced by blood.
The prime minister (prime in what respect, nobody seems to know) true to his tradition keeps quiet. The president owes his position to Sonia Gandhi and so without her permission cannot question any minister's conduct however dismal it is.
Why has Khurshid sunk so low? Or was he only wearing a mask all these days and it has come off now? Defeat of his spouse in the Assembly election was taken as a personal affront by him. How can a commoner defeat a person from a "noble family"?
The minister's integrity is in a shambles. He is threatening violence against those questioning the bonafides of his Trust. Yet he is allowed to continue as our Minister of Law and Justice.
The party with a 'difference' namely the BJP is not raising this as a serious issue of lack of governance because its own house is not in order either. Caught between the corrupt Congress and begrimed BJP, the common man turns more cynical. Being an alumnus of St.Stephens and Oxford does not seem to deter a person from obnoxious behaviour.
