When the going was orgasmic fun the dubious fellow was
celebrated as King of good times, as disgraceful elites stampede for the lick
till it hurt. That he was only a façade for much cleverer people to grab
is becoming clear. He was used thoroughly, and the attention seeker enjoyed the
limelight, the habitual affliction became the catalyst for the downfall.
Vijay Mallya is a clear case of fall guy in a coterie working and
furiously scratching each other and grabbing whatever they could lay their hands
on while it lasts. The moment one of the primate is declared a fall guy they
mob him to show and maintain a semblance of ethical concern and righteous
placing, ofcourse law will take its own course while CJ will plead for more
resource. Sycophantic leaders are easy to trap as they lack credibility or
responsibility, they are ever enthusiastic for any deal for gain. The deal
makers, manipulators, perception creators etc. have field day as the nefarious acts are
carried with impunity while Indian democracy is celebrated in all its mythical glory.
The so called Indian corporates (mostly high end dealers) thrive in this
ecosystem, as money is handed, directed, distributed and patted with subtle
business school jargons to give semblance of professionalism to what is
essentially thuggery at colossal scale. The slaves in media are taken care with
media management money sacks addressed carefully with pincode, hence miraculously
thugs becomes movers of economy and generators of precious jobs garlanding
it as incredible India’s success story. Now that he is being mauled badly and
it has become open for all Mallya tweets from his hideout "Let media
bosses not forget help, favours, accommodation that I have provided over
several years which are documented." Capitalism is bad enough but crony
capitalism takes the life out of the society, it saps and degrades what already
is of low credibility.
Mallya’s carefully crafted checklist for success is ticked in all
possible squares of devious ways. Cash cow of business empire and property that
he inherited and ofcourse much facilitated due to lack of any check on these
transactions. Subsequent policy makers, clearly part of the patrilineal
thriving ecosystem that perpetuates disparities, furiously flicked their tongue
for social justice during election time as much celebrated Indian competence/merit
chugs on into its graveyard. Wonder how lawyers do such wonderful job as
finance minister? Mallya used his liquor empire to surrogate ad all that he
could lay his hands on as mediocrity thriving game called cricket had men
competing for different brands of liquor, and soulful singing the brand,
cricket is just a ruse for transaction. This blogger holds the view that
prohibition of liquor is not the way but be tough on surrogate ads and placing
of these products. There are even awards named on liquor that depraved decorate
each other with for all kind of achievements in this ever limited world, some use
this occasion for wisdom. He also exhibited his deviant market media friendly patriotism
by wanton fossil fuel guzzling and massive carbon footprint irresponsible juvenile
events like Formula One.
With big money and nepotistic delight Mallya went about soliciting the
ever ready to sell the nation for money politicians, he was elected to RS not
once but twice for whatever reason except that he was dripping in currency. The fellow, as expected, blatantly used the
occasion to subvert highest body of Indian democracy as he went on promoting
himself and his brand’s worth as charming marketer. He donated, indeed bricks
of gold and even navigated his godforsaken airline’s first flight around the
debauched temples (Even
donating a golden door (?!) to
Kukke Subramanya temple, a temple known for such disgusting
practices that it will sicken any sane person. A practice so heinous that it should be a case study for world community to understand this primitive society. To call this putrid pit a place of worship
is a disgrace, in a civilized world this place would either be cleared of brutes or
flattened. What was the motivation of this scoundrel to donate such huge amount
of gold to these disgusts? Clearly these are the pits he is now going to knock,
debauched blessing should create miracles. Meanwhile will the gold door be taken back or most appropriately shouldn't these disgraceful people return it?) Unfortunately the
debauchery and camaraderie have short life cycle, squatter’s blessing is
ineffectual when the venture needs high level of competence for running an
airline. If it was based on perception and manipulation they would have easily pulled
it off but sadly this venture needs high calibre hence it could
nothing but fail, humble sycophancy withstanding. Meanwhile debauched blessing
worked wonders as he set about multiplying his business and ofcourse ego. The coterie
cleared the patch as banks were more than keen to extend loans. I read that
public sector bank is another pit of nepotism and harbinger of crony
capitalism. As everybody gets their cut the loans are approved by pliable heads
of banks, indeed these attributes are the very reason why they are made the
head of banks. This is how degraded the system is as they favour their own without
any compunction millions and millions of people’s money are exchanged and
pocketed. Even words like nepotism and crony capitalism needs redefining. That an
employer is not paying the employee should in itself an apt case for arrest is
a minor matter. There are so many breaches one wonders whether there are any
laws applied for these people or is the law meant to control common people
while they carry the loot.
What spoiled the cosy deal was Mallya’s flamboyance, the arrogant
attention seeker oddball with a penchant for buffoonery, and in the ecosystem
of god fearing debauched blessed humble operators he was going to be in trouble
sooner than later. And that is the reason for his fall, there are defaulters
worse than him, there are people worse than him but he was marked out. If he had
stayed and manipulated under the radar he would have quite easily escaped and
even won the business icon of the year award from none other than the FM. Few months
before the hell broke loose on him he celebrated his b’day in lavish style that
made ‘prescient saint’ of a RBI head to blurt some saintly advice. That the
policy makers were aware of the misdeeds of Mallya and action was not taken is ‘prescient’
in itself. The incompetence of it. While FM was found to be rather patronizing “it
is good that media is focussing on this”!! So what exactly is his job? To be
fair the exaggerated presence of some TV channels, mostly English media (that
the PM so very rightly avoids) did try to underplay Mallya’s gargantuan fleece initially.
It is only when the barrage were broken that too by some really persistent and
committed few that the mob joined in, it is the same with the defence scam,
they ignored, underplayed and then once it was going out of hand joined in for
high moral ground. Media management fund cannot really guarantee fool proof
silence (this blogger wants the list of people who were paid including the
journalist knowing fully well that is not going to happen…this only much bigger
scam while smaller one’s are being pocketed on daily basis under the euphemism of media management).
Postscript: It is clear that Mallya played it well to attract big
lickers –the cunning sycophantic politicians, through them the pliable bureaucracy
and banks, facilitated ably by creating debauched blessing as he donated loads
of gold to squatter temples hence open the door wide for higher echelons of camaraderie.
He even ticked the sickular box, hobnobbing with pretentious money sucking sickular,
and took it to the next level with Tipu’s sword. The attention seeker was
having it all, and with half naked calendars and furious hedonism he took the
liberal values and modernity over the roof. As Mallya face the music, the coterie who
provided the service got ample cut remained low key and have since vanished
with their bora bistra leaving no
trace but you can see some footprint of these manipulative scoundrels who
severely degraded the institutions. This blogger was able to trace one and the
web of manipulation they work on. Wondering how a pedestrian award manipulating
actor who is not at all popular, and not suited for the role of a Punjabi
(wherein there are so many better options) could be considered for a movie led
me to look at the producer. This fellow turned out to be a photographer. Now how
is that a photographer able to make so much money was cleared by the revelation that
this fellow worked for Mallya. One could therefore conclude that this was in
some way returning the favour, that CrudeWoman must have played some part in
the manipulation can be conjectured. It is not for no reason millions of rupees
is extended as a loan, and then not asked to return. It is high profile web of deceit
that is so cunning that you will never be able to pinpoint it. That is how
these scoundrels work, always under the radar, leave no footprint. This pattern
of camaraderie is something quite common among the cabal parked around the
power centre. As ZK says jab madamze ki
dukaan khuli thi tho hum log do ka do lakh karthe the, aaj sirf do ka dai
kar pathe hai…mahol kharab ho gaya hai
Meanwhile there is an argument going on: ZK believes in choos choos ke khao while Crude Woman is
adamant on niglo school of thought. As
I left the con couple CrudeWoman looked at ZK’s gene, who was furiously noting the
salient of the argument, and sympathised “muee
bal kat kat ke naak kataake chali gayi”. ZK looked at the ceiling and
muttered “Iconz logon ka dard sirf iconz
log he samaj sakthe hai”
