They did it again! The Shiv Sena has risen back from its ashes! Doing what it does best! Tell them to stay in power for one year and solve the state's problems peacefully... naaah. Breaking people's legs like furniture (and vice versa), street fighting, molesting women, tearing their clothes... YES!! THAT's our job. They choose to call themselves Shivaji's army. And they believe in bringing in Hindavi Swaraj which was Shivaji's pet concept. Molesting women must have been a part of the manifesto then. In a few days time, Bal Thackeray will put in the papers an article praising his 'brave warriors' who repelled Western customs successfully. Brave warriors who beat up 70 yr old women and little children with whips and hockey sticks. All this for a Valentine's Day celebration which wasn't even meant to be a Valentine's Day celebration. And to make a complete mockery of their own 'anti-western' ideals, they made off with all the foreign liquor at the party.
The Shiv Sena is in shambles. All the roadside ruffians who are members of the party have realised that other parties can provide similar opportunities for breaking limbs and other parts of the human body with official backing. All the Shiv Sena is trying to do is what businesses do all the time: raise their profile. But how long can this continue? Bal Thackeray lost his fangs when Narayan Rane left. He lost his claws when Raj Thackeray left. This tiger's on the endangered list just like his jungle namesake. And let's hope any attempt at Mumbai's Project Tiger is unsuccessful.
