Ms.Kanimozhi is having to spend more time in Delhi than she would like to lately. Then there is Mr.Raja who is yet to be sprung out of the hospitality of Tihar. The rest of the week is bound to be even more eventful for Ms.Kanimozhi.
Indians should feel reassured to see the well healed being hounded by the justice system. However, unless guilty are convicted and punished they are right to be cynical about the system.
For the moment, the 2G affair would pose a few more problems for DMK. What if they receive a drubbing in the May 13 election results? It is hard to see them having any leverage with their senior partners in UPA after that.
Reminds you of some of the politicians wallowing in self pity after electoral debacles.
Update: The election results are now out and the bail plea is to be heard today. Makes you wonder, what incentive does the Congress party now have to protect the DMK's accused leaders.If anything they have a point to prove by letting the guilty face the consequences. This has to be a good litmus test for UPA.
