Why have people stopped being decent?

Is decency out of form these days? Everywhere one sees people with lung power saying nasty things and getting away with it. Anyone who has his/her 15' of fame has to say something or the other, never mind that it's hurting the nation's interests! See the harshness in thoughts and the shrillness of the voices because I'm gonna cite a few instances:-

    (a) In the long drawn out UP Assembly elections, leaders of all the parties have used improper
         language. I ain't accepting that as election rhetoric. When one holds responsible position,
         the level of decency expected is much, much higher. There can't be any dilution about it.

    (b) The pantomime that's being enacted as campus students' freedom of expression is getting
          to be curioser and curioser. Is it a way to show Modi and his government in poor light? If
          yes, who're the propagators? Surely, it's those who'd benefit from a 'disgraced' Modi? They
          must realise that they can't afford to be so irresponsible, so cheap because if they're to be
          successful, it bodes ill for the nation.

    (c) A former union home minister says that Kashmir is almost lost, the former chief minister of
         Jammu and Kashmir calls the stone pelters, 'freedom fighters'. Your hatred for Modi seems
         to be so great that you've thrown all caution to the winds, P Chidambaram and Farooq Abdulla.
         It's meanness!

    (d) The ABVP has the audacity to threaten with rape on a soldier's daughter just because she has
          had the guts to criticise the outfit for its intolerance. The outfit has to apologise.

When you're angry, resist from saying anything because you're gonna regret your words spoken during the temporary instability of the mind!


Tailpiece.

Off to Thiruvananthapuram to attend the 108th birth anniversary of my grandfather. There is lot to do.
