Madam Jayalalita had the political guts to say that the nomination of Ms Pratiba Patil for the President Post a political joke. However, now similar jokes are going on rounds and ironically the media is giving it an undue importance!
Its beyond ones imagination what made LK Advani to recommed for cofering Bharat Ratna on Atal Bihari Vajpayee. This has opened a pandora box and now recommendations galore from every nook and corner of the country.
Indeed Bharat Ratna had the sanctity till the first amendment was made to facilitate confering it posthumously. Then started the deterioration of the quality of the candidates.
The first bad choice was Ms Indira Gandhi and the worst choice being M G Ramachandran. Rajiv Gandhi, fairly new into politics, conferred this on MGR just to woo and please his regional partner.
Then Bharat Ratna was treated almost like a wreath on the dead celebrities. Patel, Ambedkar, and it started.
Now the list is fabulous! Kanshiram, Jagjivan Ram, Mohd Rafi, Karunanidhi, Mohd Hussain, Sachin Tendulkar etc.,
I cannot say whether all of them or none of them deserve Bharat Ratna but all I could say is Bharat Ratna is now becoming a political joke and it has no meaning to it!
Its the high time we stopped giving such awards!
