Modi, Tharoor, Pawar, BJP and the end of Congress rule?...

Now the whole kitchen sink is being thrown at Lalit Modi. Looks like Sharad Pawar has provided the sacrificial lamb to Congress party, probably in exchange for protection of his own bank account. While Shashi Tharoor will be happily claiming his innocence and Pushkaring away, Modi will be in a neighborhood prison soon. At this point, this has degenerated into politicians saving their skins. And providing a lesson to people that expose the functioning of the Great Congress party of Mahatma Gandhi in any way. They have the copyright on cheating and anyone that points it out will be figuratively made more naked than Mahatma Gandhi.

The IPL can easily become a casualty, similar to how India is a casualty while politicians shore up their bank accounts while wearing their spotless whites and crooked smiles. I doubt there will be a fourth season.

Another aspect of this story is the "migrant Kerala male". They are renowned for their "setup" in various parts of the country while they earn their living in a place where there are jobs. This behavior can potentially cause a change in power if this gets too close for comfort to Sharad Pawar. Already his daughter is being questioned. If there is one thing Sharad Pawar hates, it is his daughter being troubled for any of his activities.
