Bikash Choudhury
Apropos “testing time for Naveen”; some how I disagree with
the title though the article was a good read after temporary silence of
National Media on the subject. In my contention, the unfortunate events on and
after 29th May 2012
has actually created a window of opportunity for Sri Naveen Patnaik. First of
all BJD supremeo contained the threat to his Govt. from London
exemplified the amount of ground swelling support he commands and his control
over the party organization and Govt. Further, subsequent events have now
proved beyond reasonable doubt, who is actually the nucleus of Biju Janata Dal
and who has blessings of people. Naveen Babu had delegated a sizable amount of
authority and not ceded control at any point of time and that was done out of
strength and not weakness and some amount of confidence owing to old
association which was eventually betrayed. Timing could not have been worse;
when BJD supremo was spearheading initiative in National & International
arena for the benefit of people and polity of Odisha.
Pyari Babu became a victim of media created image of him;
apparently, he took it seriously for a moment. Further, he was also led in the
garden path by his small coterie of advisors for their own selfish interest.
Pyari Babu forgot to ask one question to himself—will he ever consider
delegating the amount of authority he was delegated to one of his colleague?
Those who have met Pyari Babu come back impressed and would have found a
sleeping author & philosopher in him. He should cut his losses and should
drive down to “Naveen Nivas” as boldly as he had done many other things to just
say that five letter word that make many complex issues & life much simpler
and proceed on a natures trail for some time to get a clearer view from a
distance. May be, a gubernatorial assignment would be his for the asking.
