Congress Delhi Rally-Reich stag March?

The congress party is holding a rally at the Ram Lila Grounds, New Delhi, ostensibly in support of FDI in Retail in India.

One wonders why a ruling party that can wither all scams which, in any other part of the world, would have sent the Government packing off, has to bring a purely a legislative issue onto to the streets!

Will some one remind the Congress -‘Issues of parliament are not decided in the streets’

_P.Chidambaram,on Anna Hazare,Kejriwal fast of Lokpal?

Is Congress holding the rally to demonstrate that people are behind them despite their,

I am reminded of the closing days of the Wiemar Republic,Social Democrats,Communists Struggle,the depression and the rise of Hitler, when Hitler , to seize the Republic, ostensibly democratically, made the famous(notorious) March, with his future SS march to the seat of German Power, Reich stag.!

3:35pm: Opposition rubbishes ‘show of strength’

While no one was as imaginative in their rebuttal of the Congress rally as Baba Ramdev who said that the Congress is doing a ‘Ravanlila’ at the Ramlila Maidan, BJP leader Arun Jaitley called the rally ‘anti-people’. “They rationalised hike in diesel prices, they justified hike in LPG prices. This rally was intended to rationalise anti-people policies,” he said.

The CPI(M), every TV channels go-to party, for anti-government, anti-Oppostion quotes alike said that instead of justifying its policies by themselves, the Congress should table its reforms in the Parliament and pass them as Bills after voting by the members. “That is a proper way of bringing in reforms. Let the Parliament debate the reforms as pass them if necessary,” said Prakash Karat of the CPI(M).

1.05pm: Three cheers to Jai Hind!

Don’t quite get why Shashi Tharoor is excited about this bit of the speech, but Sonia put her best foot forward in Opposition-mincing, followed closely by son Rahul. Together they made up for Manmohan Singh‘s seeming lack of oratory skills. However, Tharoor seemed more taken up by the conclusion of the speech.
