Rahul's speech i Orissa infers the same
by Lopesh Desai on Mar 16, 2008 09:15 AM

It is a shame for Rahul Gandhi say after his visit to drought stricken and starvation prone areas of Orissa that he is %u201Cnow%u201D aware of these problems which are worse than that of his home state, Uttar Pradesh. Rahul is in his 30%u2019s and if so where was he all these years when both the print and electronic media were regularly carrying reports of starvation deaths in Orissa.
It has been an endemic problem in the tribal dominated areas of Orissa and if anyone says he is coming to know of it only now then it clearly shows how much a person like Rahul Gandhi knows about his own country.
The immaturity of our political leaders, particularly the young ones, is stunning. Coming from a dynastic lineage into politics to protect their ill-gotten wealth that their fathers and forefathers have amassed, these people are divorced from the realities of Indian society
