.. Am sure there are no illusions out there. Just yesterday one witnessed shameless assertions by Sharad Pawar and his family about their having to do nothing with IPL bidding undertaken by the MD of City Corp. They have 16.22 percent of shares. They say that the bid was made by the MD in his personal capacity. It is both illegal and improper. The Parliament has been misled. If the bid was won,what would have been the response?? Sharad has the audacity to say that if he was interested in the bidding it would not have been allowed to fail. Shows he would have ensured the win by hook or crook..

. Except some heated debate on the visual media, there are no other protests no dharnas no concerns from the public. Coming back to my old point why blame them, if the people continue to tolerate this nonsense. If Tharoor was shown the door, why not Pawar?
