I stumbled on this great news today. Apparently Basu and Surjeet have expressed their desires to be relieved. I am sure the nation breathes a sigh of collective relief as well. It's high time that the Communist party gets infused with some fresh thoughts and fresh blood. The age old moralistic, retrograde Communist thoughts will not work for a brand new India.
Maybe, it's just hoping for too much to expect fresh blood to stream into the Indian political arena.
'Coz the youth wing of the party is still led by the relatively younger 70+ year old Bardhan. And it is the 75+ year old Somnath Chatterjee who will take over the mantle from Basu and Surjeet. It's time for maybe another 20-30 year old reign by Chatterjee over the party. Sigh!
I had heard this somewhere once:
Secret of a long life: Become a politician.
Secret of a longer life: Become a politician with the Communist Party.
So true!
