Now, the second question Mr Shenoy raised: whether Buddha is in wrong party.
Here is a piece by noted Journalist Rudranshu Mukherjee, editor of the Telegraph, who was a big supporter of Buddha! But alas, even he was forced to write:
Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee was once a Stalinist. Many of his new-found admirers believe that since he is pro-capital, he is no longer a Stalinist. Actually, there is no contradiction between the mindset of a Stalinist and the wooer of investment. If Stalin were to meet Buddhadeb Bhattacherjee, he would greet him with the cry, mon semblable, mon frère %u2014 my twin, my brother. A Stalinist does not change his mindset, just as a leo- pard in the forest does not change its spots.
