Congress parlous parliamentarian Shashi Tharoor seems to be a
child prodigy who knew how to impressively debate a topic; that has proved once
again while replying queries from Indian Express staff. In his opinion there are inherent flaws in
its implementation in astonishingly incompetent manner. “Nobody in the world has done this” he said
while commenting on illegality of old currency in just three and half
hours. The size of new notes and
re-calibration of 2.5 lakh ATMs by 55 thousand engineers makes government
amateurish, he commented. He has
objection on changing of the goalpost. His
masterstroke on BJP government is “there has been a complete disavowal of
responsibility and culpability in these failures, which is also
troubling”. Stacking of brand new notes
by few, while ordinary public in long queue is another failure, he
expressed. He also objected on absence
of infrastructure for cashless economy.
His last comment was “ambitions are exceeding groundwork and ability to
fulfill it”.
Though the
party he represented is in complete befuddlement, his adherence to party’s
ethos is noteworthy. His stand on
parliamentary democracy is par excellence, and reflects his upbringing in a
family where a tenet of life is more important than the position acquired. “My voters have not sent me for disruption”
indicates the stature and richness of his eternal views. Disruptions have become deeply en-grained in
our parliamentary practice, he said in the saddest tone. His body language, mastery over oratory and
demeanor reflects the ideal personality he possesses. To strengthen the parliamentary democracy
such towering personalities do require in large number; what a shame, ruling
and opposition parties are behaving in irresponsible manner.
