From the Editor

CONGRESS’ Rahul Gandhi criticised and justified ‘Dynasty Politics’ in India. He rightly maintained, “Most (political) parties have that problem.” He wrongly assumed, “So that’s how India runs.” The real, and the most obliterating, truth about the country is the manner in which Dynasty Politics transforms into Dynasty Inc., and corrodes the system from within. One can understand a lawyer’s son becoming a lawyer, a doctor’s doctor, and a politician’s obviously a politician. What decimates a nation is when the son of a lawyer corrupts the judiciary, daughter of a journalist destroys the credibility of the legislature, and a son-in-law of a politician becomes an extra-constitutional authority to maul the executive.
