How the common man 'suffers'

Recently, all roads leading to IIT Madras were blocked/ choked due to visit of VIP. This so called 'very important person' becomes so important that all others become too 'common' just like in thermodynamics, everything outside the system becomes the 'surrounding'.

Now, that doesn't mean that there shouldn't be VIP's. But, it makes no sense to trouble innocent civilians in his name. The cause of the trouble is a much debated phenomena in India, the million dollar question is: Is it ethical to disturb regular people who commute between places and suddenly realize they are in for a traffic jam, caused by this creature called 'VIP'.

Worse than this creature are his noble deeds, which do not have anything to do for the welfare of the needy but only one motto called "Make the rich, richer" which serves two purposes

1. Getting famous
2. Networking

So a classic example of 'एक तीर से दो शिकार ' this creature has no idea of what the common man thinks of all this bull shit.

Coming back to the 'thing' which happened a day before yesterday which irked me into writing this post: A VIP visit to an educational institute like IIT Madras for celebrating a hospital's silver jubilee and launch of new so called state of the art hospitals in rural areas

Unfortunately, the VIP referred to here is the prime minister of our country. No marks for guessing the hospital's name which is none other than the famous Apollo, who started the 'business' of healthcare which was hitherto a noble affair. The ads, hoardings on streets, thousands of beggars hired on the road for support and cheering of the VIP, all these speak volumes about a truly high class business concern. Anyway, an ad given by the concern in newspaper read "In our constant endeavour to deliver quality high tech healthcare to rural areas we are launching ..........". How would any sane person react to this ad, think about it. Its not that they are providing services for free, who would afford such high tech in rural areas and at whose cost would be the first question to arise. The answer is so simple that everyone knows it, so I take great pride in anwering such a question myself

Answer - "The common man's pocket will bear everything"
