Eunuchs Too... |
||

Amarnath alias Asha Devi's dreams turned sour when the honorable Court decided that in the eyes of law Asha Devi is not a woman but a man, eunuch at that. This decision per say would not have flickered any eyelids had it not resulted in the decree that Asha Devi be removed from the post of Mayor won on the strength of being eunch by her..er..him. Being manly does matter in politics. It is a man's world out there. Statecraft was never the business of feeble hearted especially the ones who are not man enough. Granted that no sacrifice is too big in the interest of ones motherland but right since 1857 there is not a single stance where a patriot has sacrificed his manhood at the altar of national service. When in Madhya Pradesh a eunch became MLA whole of India's political scenario was overnight transformed. Shabnam mausi had won by thumping majority. She had arrived with great fanfare. People thought this will help awaken the politicians who tend to go in for forty winks, nap, siesta and deep slumber depending on the place, need and occasion. Party bosses were aghast and gaped at the turn of events. Shabnam mausi'a eunuch had shown them their place and made them feel bigger eunuchs. The macho men were defeated by a solitary eunuch. Men for the first time suspected their own gender, crying foul. –
