Paranjape and his ilk are the typical toe sucking toadies in the Congress ecosystem. Such people have no self esteem and the are the typical durbaris surviving on झूटन of the Durbar.
Seems Prof. Paranjape, whom I have met, listened to, and cheered on has succumbed finally to the Delhi air now that he is safely ensconced at the IAAS. Alas! Could not believe that the cringe-worthy piece on Priyanka came from his desk, rather than Tharoor’s desk. His claims about Priyanka’s worth and qualities seeming to come out of a “family recollections” album, and I wonder what access he has to the dynasty that the ordinary news reporter does not have. And his response to Mayuresh Didolkar’s carefully argued rebuttal also seems to come out of some kind of a Kanhaiya-JNU playbook. What seduces the good professor?
“He doesn’t like Priyanka Gandhi—naturally, he also doesn’t like my praise of her. Nothing I say will make him change his mind.” How did Makarand Paranjape come to this conclusion? So anyone who challenges his assertions with logic is “right wing” “intolerant” “hateful” etc etc? Whereas there is nothing in Mayur Didolkar’s response which suggests any of this – except challenging the points on which Paranjape makes his case on Priyanka.
