colours of corruption

The ethos of political parties today seem to be streaked with corruptive colours of rust , though to differing shades .Increasingly this colour ,being woven into their leitmotif ,to the extent that even as one adopts it as compulsion of coalition,the other does so on the need for party cohesion !.While the two have been dictated by their head, even the promising debutant AAP ,seems to follow the same path but through the heart, much like a teenage rebel . Indian Democracy seems to have been practically usurped by parties and little is left to the common man who is content at being given the sop of periodic elections .And thereafter , any which changed dispensation ,does little to graduate from base levels .The one tool, the RTI, is allowed operation on a selective basis at the mercy of a willing beaurocracy..The citizen remains the puppet for which he too must share considerable blame. Political doyens, media and observers can only advice from the sidelines as the parties freely go about scheming for increased tallies in elections of every kind, that seem to go on ceaselessly across national arenas .
