A CAGED MAN...!!!

A free bird ,a free mind and the sunset of life shall be a happy combination for a story-teller.Not so this evening when one recalls the callousness with which martyrs are forgotten whereas deserters of homestead seem to be eulogized,for nothing…err,it is erroneous to thing it is all much ado about nothing .
Beg your pardon? Yes, smuggling of art and artefacts are frowned upon by laws of a civilized world.Money-laundering techniques include works of art being sold,undersold,oversold,insured and re-touched so to speak.
Am I touching a raw chord? No,it is a fact of life that whereas Salman’bhai’ was netted by the mullahs of religiosity for his seemingly uncharitable remarks, the old man by the sea who was a client in good old Hyderabad[his house was sought to be converted to an art museum post-gaja gamini episodes]seems to enjoy the full support of a tiny land of hefty commission-agents and brokers of oily deals[no pun meant,all straight-faced submissions friends!]…
Why then must the other desi old man by the Arabian Sea [again an uncanny resemblance of study in contrasting rise and eclipsing ,respectively]cry foul for a fallen man ?If in fact the one crying hoarse about being crucified by a section of politicos and busybodies in the world’s greatest secular land is indeed a patriot , would not he have gracefully ‘turned down’ the offer of citizenship by an alien land in which he was residing [no mere refugee]and returned to the lavish bungalow in Banjara Hills ,for instance?
Or is it a timely wake-up call for us all compatriots of a proud nation that it is high time to make an ‘open offer’ that whosoever[I mean all who have /are harbouring a secret desire]seeks to embrace another nationality [be it of the Middle East or of South East Asia or elsewhere]may please be welcomed to make an exit with all their mortal assets forthwith?
It will certainly help restore the greatness of a noble ,ancient civilization as Bharat’s and lessen the burden of population upon statistics [incl.productivity figures and per capita income]besides,making it a more enjoyable land for both the Natives as well as the ones who feel estranged after partition of the Indian sub-continent…
Amen?
Aye,aye,all…!!
JAI HIND !!!
