The gracious exchange, a complete rarity in a polarised polity held the house (Rajya Sabha) spell bound; was it a drama? The Dharma of the Parliament was violated in many a situation and there had to be Dharna outside the parliament.
Ghulam Nabi Azad and PM Narendra Modi, both where General Secretary once upon a time of their respective time, in 2006 both where Chief Minister for their respective states, and here one was the ruling head and the other was the LOP - Leader of Opposition Party. It was his last day in Rajya Sabha and he has been in LS/RS/ State CM - thus playing various role, from the time of Indira Gandhi till today. Born in Free India, after Independence, he said how blessed Hindustani Muslims were, and how he burst out crying couple of times, when on his own parents death he just wept. One was when the bus carrying Gujarat tourist was blasted half a kilometer from where he stayed when both he and Modi were PM's of the respective states.
There has been lot of fight with Narasimha Rao, against him a group was formed by Madhavrao Schindia, Rajesh Pilot, Karunakaran, Sharad Patel and Ghulam Nabi Azad - It's different to challenge Narasimha Rao and another to challenge Gandhi. Working committee meeting was conducted in Jan. there should be an elected president in congress is his thought.
There is no legislature in Kashmir, so he cannot contest for Rajya Sabha. He was part and parcel of Congress, but his relationship was with all. He believed that the Parliamentary affairs ministers job is to coordinate the job of the opposition and government - and this is what he did when he was in 1991 to 1996 and also when he was LOP. The civility and Thazeeb of his conduct, had won many hearts.
When Article 370 was violated - he had given a very hard hitting speech, and when Kissan bill was introduced, he sat for 24 hours for Dharna. The government was not spared.
Was it PM playing on the fact that there was a personal relationship, a never seen before phenomena? Did the PM genuinely try to show a regard for Ghulam Nabi Azad, or is it that there is frostiness between Congress and Azad and Modi was trying to bring it out? All these thoughts because as these drama unveils I get message from the troll army, " Know very well, who he is, what he is and how he became a congress leader, with what purpose, why he is shedding crocodile tears telling that he is a truthful Indian Muslim and so on. He was always an anti-national and anti-hindu. Now only because of his helplessness in Congress, he is away from Sonia and is pretending to be a nationalist. Now whose tears were crocodile tears, one or both?

Tandav : The TV web series that created controversy, though I had no plans to see it, and the political web of lies, tempted me to know what it was all about, in it, the leader of a premiere political party – Samar Pratap Singh (Saif Ali Khan) feels he’s ready to inherit the chair of PM but Samar’s father, the party patriarch and the PM – Devki Nandan Singh (Tigmanshu Dhulia) isn’t willing to retire yet. Anuradha Kishore, Devki’s close associate (Dimple Kapadia), party senior leader Gopal Das (Kumud Mishra) are few of many other leaders considering themselves fit to sit in this chair. But this chair never comes easily, they must constantly keep striving for it. A parallel story is that of the idealistic campus activist Shiva Shekhar (Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub) who becomes an overnight icon as he shines at a political event. Shiva now wants to bring the change, sway the youth, overthrow the power pillars – he knows the sweet taste of power. And power corrupts. Shiva and Samar will meet as country politics will cross roads with youth politics. Tandav is the coming together of a series of manipulations that exposes layers of human greed, ambition, love, vulnerability, and violence. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and written by Gaurav Solaki, released on 15th January 2021, this web series was in 9 parts namely"

And there is this video from Sadhguru, why they are making fun of Hinduism - At this juncture -
All our mythological Gods are with weapon, they are not shy, why? Because if anyone throw filth of them, they will make manure out of it, and throw it back. Whatever we say or do, some just keep rebelling, because they don't want us to exist. They are like leeches, we don't want leeches to grow.
