Laloo on the rampage
One Article at The Indian Express takes aim at Laloo Yadav. This paragraph explains my point of view:
The allegations(on EC) themselves are serious, but shifty. What began on Day 1 mainly as a charge that two election commissioners — one of them the CEC-to-be — had decided to countermand the Chapra polls last year because of ‘‘their allegiance to BJP, RSS and other communal alliances’’, narrowed on Day 2 to mainly a slur on the ECs’ ‘‘casteism’’. There are the coincidences that need explaining. The two bureaucrats on the offensive are both serving in a ministry presided over by a Laloo lieutenant; one of them was superceded and is presently on the verge of retirement and approval of a post-retirement sinecure. Even if these are convincingly explained away, there still remains the manner in which the EC’s credibility is sought to be questioned. A constitutional body cannot be dragged through a public harangue like this. A case against the EC, if there is one to be made at all, must be substantiated and pursued with rigour and respect for due process. A Union minister should know this.
