I Have To Write – IV – Elections For Death?

Jump to Comments

Talking about Maoists one is forced to come back to the issue of Dr Binayak Sen. Maoist or not he has to be released simply because he saves human lives. And, the truth is there is not an iota of evidence against him about any so-called “anti-state” activity.

But his whole life is anti-state, there is little doubt about that  – because it is pro-poor!

The admin knows it, so they are so adamant even when they don’t have any case! The case is too heavy against them!

Melodramatic?

Bollywood/Tollywood? But it is always like that! The poor die, the State goes on – Kanunki jai!

State vs Poor!

In India, human lives do not matter. Official death figures for a local level elections in one state of India having about a tenth of the country’s population comes to 30-35, reported in the Press.

The number of people who actually died directly due to this very ‘democratic’ election was as many as 300 if my sources are right and I have no reason to disbelieve them.

So, if a very democratic election can lead to a death toll of between 30 and 300 why should someone like Dr Binayak Sen who saves at least 3 lives every day be put behind bars – what is his crime? Who is he killing?

And, how do you, the state, that needs killing of anything between 30 and 300 citizens at the least every time to simply get elected (and how many more to stay in power?) and form “democratic” governments acquire the right to go about killing/almost killing people who save people’s lives? Who the fucking hell gives you this fucking right?

The numbers I am crunching are not real numbers at all! They are horrible underestimates!

Think about it! Work out the real numbers!

You will be stunned – how many people die to support something that we do not need?

Despite it being the very epitome of democracy – the democratically elected government – at what cost? The state – do we need it?

At the cost of 300 citizens every time there is an election?

And, with people who save lives having to be put behind bars to uphold your “democratically-elected”, 300 plus-killer, totally VIOLENT State?

I get fuddled! Am I depressed? Should I write? Am i fit enough to write?
