Hatchet Therapy Indeed

The article Hatchet Therapy in Outlook news-magazine sums up the anti-Bhushan smear campaign while posing 10 unanswered questions:

• When Amar Singh says the CD is doctored, how come the CFSL concluded it is not?
• If CD isn’t doctored, how come Mulayam Singh’s 2006 lines match verbatim with 2011 CD?
• Which forensic reports can you trust when there are different CDs doing the rounds?
• Why is the Congress talking in two voices after relenting before the Jantar Mantar protest?
• Does Digvijay Singh’s attack on the Bhushans have the OK of Sonia and Rahul Gandhi?
• Was the Noida farmhouse land scam issue leaked because the CD story was losing steam?
• Are the Bhushans being attacked because they have stepped on too many toes?
• If the Bhushans are made to leave, will the smear campaign stop or will it go on?
• Could the relentless attacks result in a totally watered down Lokpal bill?
• Is the Congress endearing itself to voters with its tacit support to the attacks?

Other media houses show themselves in extremely poor light, with the Indian Express, which was once known to be a crusader for the truth, writing up just plain lies around land allotment to the Bhushans, mischievously ignoring the facts. The NOIDA Development Authority CEO is on record saying "We had about 160 applicants and 97 or 98 of those have got the plots so far and the Bhushans were among them. We are still interviewing the applicants and more applicants may get plots if they qualify".

Another individual who has been paraded by our "impartial media" is Vikas Singh who has been slandering the Bhushans from dubious, if not false, moral high ground.

Swapan Das Gupta sums up what the Congress is trying to do to anti-corruption legislation. It is no mystery why -- years and years of pillaging this nation along with their allies means that an effective anti-corruption law will have most (if not all of them) cooling their heels in prison for a long long time.
