Diggy’s nearing end is seeing more humiliation being heaped upon him. In a most bizarre situation he was locked out of a media conference by Jyotiraditya Scindia in MP. Diggy was so unwelcome he was not even shown the door. The door just didn’t open for him. This TOI report almost makes comic reading on the plight of DS. That report was a bit hard to believe but some smaller news channel (unlike cronies and chronic liars like NDTV or CNN-IBN) had the footage of the incident. Watch the video (3.56 mins): The MP campaign committee and Scindia seem to have told DS “don’t darken our door again”. Sometime back Diggy was all tears and sympathy for LK Advani over BJP’s appointment of Narendra Modi as its 2014 Campaign head. LKA was sulking and didn’t attend the party’s Goa meet in June 2013. DS was prompt to tell the world how BJP treated its tall leader shabbily. I wonder whose shoulder he’s going to cry on now that some doors are closed for him and he has been kept out. I guarantee Scindia has the full support of RahulG and there are no more shoulders for DS. It’s the beginning of unhappy endings. But there’s another important reason that may have finally sealed the fate of DS. The Congress was busy passing a string of bills and policies in the run up to general elections. One of the most important decisions they made was that on Telengana and the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh into two or three states. As party in-charge of AP, much of the closing negotiations on the issue with various sides were being handled by DS. The Congress should have been soaking in glory for the Telengana decision but the reality is far from it. Their Telengana decision has caused more damage than they estimated. AP is on the boil ever since that decision and even many Congressmen don’t support the decision. For once the Congress had banked on DS to come out with a right outcome. He failed. All the parties in the division of Andhra, Telengana and Hyderabad are unhappy with the proposed split. For all we know this decision may never come to be implement. This is the failure that may have finally dumped DS into the political ever-after. The unfortunate truth is Diggy has been practically useless to the Congress since his defeat in 2003. Apart from making silly statements in the media which the party had to mostly “distance” itself from he has proved himself a spiteful and foul-mouthed politician. What happened yesterday is nothing short of extreme humiliation by his own party. This is an unhappy ending DS may not have ever dreamed of. But the political end of this man shouldn’t make anyone unhappy, least of all Congress. We have to see who the likes of Pallavi Ghosh, Barkha Dutt, Sunetra Chaudhary & their motley crew will now run to for their cheap sound-bites. https://youtube/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=6sk0h8rtOOY
