Its nothing new. Since the officials, who are in dirt, do not have courage to retaliate. Very few are dead honest civil servants who do their duty honestly and never compromise, but they are on fingertip. The politicians know to whom theycan hit physically without any oppose.

Sudhir Choudhury of Zee has actually created a meme of Goddess Laxmi bestowing her benedictions upon this ancient land.
