Diplomacy


Once upon a time in zzzland, there lived two eligible prince charmings :Champat kumar and Champak kumar. Champat kumar was tall and dandy and Champak kumar had the advantage of family and tradition.
Then to add a point to the tale, there was an Apple pie too. As expected she was sweet and sweeter…:d

Sadly in zzzland, people have fetish for ironies and so does the creator of the trio : Champat kumar, Champak kumar and Apple pie.

As the norm would have it, Apple pie waits demurely to be grabbed by the faster of the two but you see, she was the modern day liberated pie. She decided that it was about time she chose who it was going to be or if it was going to be anyone at all……

By the way, did i mention - she was in possession of an otherwise useless but over-sized, extra- logical brain.
So Apple pie introduced the element of diplomacy to the equation. Now what is the ground rule for diplomacy?
lets see:
Two parties have obvious, overt, antagonistic interests ------meaning ------the welfare/fulfillment of one's (interests) shall automatically mean absolute loss of the other..
So to please and pacify – already on the brink- junta, who is otherwise all too willing to de-throne the leaders, a diplomat engages his/her counterpart in an act of diplomacy.
Initially both brag about their individual concerns,, issues…bla bla bla…..

And later at some stage of mutual exhaustion, both introduce such an absurd condition for peace on the other, that it cannot be accepted by the other without surrendering its primary interest which s/he is there to preserve in the first place.

So what is achieved at the end is as a zero-sum condition.

Now it is natural if one were to ask, what does anyone to gain out of this obvious total sham? ???
The answer is : Golden state of status quo. Nothing-No one moves not even an inch. Everything stays just the same.

Diplomat bhai log are happy because they never seek a solution anyways- you see, the problem must stay for the logic of their own survival as leaders…so as long as the problem stays, they stay too.
No love is lost. Who is fooled- the pacified junta…..

These days Apple pie is found grinning ear to ear in zzzland
Oh yes!! Although there are no happily ever afters---
Oh come on she shall survive…not to worry--- she is not seeking any either

wat muncipalty ?
you know wat JEEJEE writers ? We have movie scripts chutki bajaake'
You don't need any inspiration, drugs or alcohol to stimulate you.
Just open your window and you have a script.

One thing i have in mind is 'Life and kicking of Kannagi'
i doubt you are a south indian as you write about UP elections and all.

Kannagi is a legend. Some story, you can google and find out.
poor thingee she is. Owee she is there in wikipedia. search KANNAGI
i just chekkedu.

Anyways. DMK people, self styled defenders of Tamil language and people installed a statue of poor kanngai on the beach, when they came to power. lots of statues like pimples on the face.
then come our dear well fed AMMA to power. She is a jealous kind, actually venomous kind. She can't stand any other woman's statue in the city. Some astrologer ( our country's future lies in the hands of the astrologers and gurus swamies, please write about this) So some astrologer tells our well fed AMMA that this lady kannagi is no good for her. so she creates an 'Accident' to knock down
kannagi. poor thing. Then come DMK after 5 years, they put her back to where she belongs after removing all the pigeon droppings, after a shampp bath. Five years pass in a jiffy, come fat AMMA back, who now openly knocks down Kannagi again. Now DMK is in power. So Kannagi is back with a fresh coat of paint. Just imagine what Kannagi would have felt. good movie script.
