What took congress so long to realise left's loyalities? They knew it all along but they kept mum for the sake of power and to keep BJP out of governance. Now that election are around the corner, congress has started distancing itself from left so that it can fight elections against west all over India. This is true for other allies of Congress. However it is quite possible, these opportunist parties and congress will huddle together after election and try to keep BJP out of power. Their politics is not about ideology but power.

It is the Congress Party that made politics a business.It is like a lazy son who spends the hard earned property of his father without knowing its value.Leaders like Lokamanya Tilak,Aurabindo Ghosh,CR Das and MK Gandhi brought independence to the country. People like YS Rajasekhara Reddy, Sheela Dixith,Ambika Soni and others are enjoying their sacrifices.In 2004 elections Congress enetered in to understanding even with Nazalites,Islamic fundamentalists and militants in North East for the sake of coming in to power.Now the country is paying for that.Sheela Dixit should note that this UPA government is running only with the support of THOSE who inher Opinio are LOYAL to the OTHER COUNTRIES.Sheela Dixit need not worry about the country because herself and her party have bartered India to one family of which the Karta is an European.Patriotic elements are there in the country to save India from the catastrophy.

Sheila ji, I Understand your frustration!!! But then, how can you keep the "Communal forces" at bay without having these ridiculous people's (Left) support ? By tolerating injustice, you are committing a bigger crime than these commies.

Is this a discovery that Ms Sheila Dikshit is making today? The fact is that the leftists had always been like this, even before the day when Congress decided to form government with their support. If Congress seriously believed that leftists were anything different than what Sheila Dikshit discovered today, then I can only laugh at the collective foolishness of the Congressies. The nation has always known this. Without realizing it, Sheila Dikshit has also made a serious charge against the founding fathers of her own party. Don't we all know that Nehru had Leftist leanings? Isn't it public knowledge that he had as his Defence Minister, one Mr. Krishna Menon, who actually was a Chinese mole in his government? At a time, when the Chinese troops were well within Indian territory in 1962, Krishna Menon kept asserting in the parliament that there was no question of Chinese agression on India. So Yes, Sheila Dikshit is 100% correct in making known, her new-found discovery. But she needs to know that the leftist space includes some people in her party, whom her party has always treated as Gods.
