India calling....aha!

I was speaking with a friend today. We got on discussing how the issues become so politicised that the real issues get pushed back. Be it the Arushi murder case, the criticism of smoking by Shah Rukh Khan & also of drinking by our own lovable King Khan...How these politicians use these smoke screens to push the more critical issues underneath the carpet. Does Mr Ramadoss know what is happening in AIIMS, what is the state of the medical facilities in the country....does he think of ways of getting more private players involved in the health industry, does he think of increasing the reach of medical insurance??? NO. He thinks where he can get more publicity and targets King Khan. By the noise he made of Khans' habits of smoking and his movies, people who might not have noticed his smoking before, sat up and noticed. Maybe now, more youngsters will get influenced. If he is soooooo worried about the youngsters, why does he not do something about the abysymmal rate of infant mortality in India?????
