Five lines of defence Tarun Tejpal can resort to

Published on Faking News in Nov 13

While Tarun Tejpal has been demonstrating amazing agility & dexterity in moving from one defence to another on the issue of his alleged sexual assault on his colleague from Tehelka, there are several other tried & tested lines of defence which he can use to get out of this situation.
Tarun Tejpal
Tejpal thinking which strategy should he follow
Secular Card: He has already enhanced his stature by saying that it is a political conspiracy. But that is a line which every two bit politician parrots when caught with fingers in the pie. He needs to upgrade this logic by adding the secular – communal hyphenation. He can claim that the victim is a right winger, communalist or worse an RSS agent. After all, a secular victim would never complain about any misdemeanour or crime of a fellow secular. This would wake the MSM, give them the courage of conviction to defend him. Added half liners from Sh. Digvijay Singh would help and investigation agency & courts would be unable to take any action unless Justice Goswamis and Prosecutor Dutts pronounce their judgement.
Training Exercise gone wrong: He can claim that he was training the victim for another sting operation and a misunderstanding on the part of victim led to her injured modesty.  Tehelka already has a history of using honey traps for sting operation and that makes the premise believable. If he can claim that the planned sting operation was against communal forces, nothing like it.
Play Victim: He can release alternate version of video grab (from existing stock of Tehelka) which depicts him as the victim. He can claim to be hero by saying that though it was his modesty which was attacked but his chivalry forced him to apologize instead of putting the girl in an embarrassing situation.
Underage Rapist: He can always claim to be juvenile, whatever be his physical age. There are examples at national level where the middle aged men project themselves as mama’s boys and behave like teenagers.
Last Resort: If nothing else works, there is always Nirmal Baba. He is the right person to tell him that “Aapne 10 Janpath par devi ke darshan 6 maheene se nahin kiye. Kripa wahin se aa rahi thi.”

Most of us would have heard or read this story before but its relevance to the current situation makes a retelling necessary. A sword smith came to the King’s durbar (any King, let’s be secular) and declared that he had the world’s best sword. It was so good & sharp that it could pierce any shield, repeat any shield in the world.  The claim was tested on the few shields available and when found to be true, the King became happy, and as usually happens in such stories, gave a lot of gold and other jewels to the smith and sent him off. A year or two later, the smith came to the King’s court again, this time brandishing a shield which, he claimed, no sword in the world could pierce. The people were simple in those days and he was believed.  The King was about to be relieved of some more gold and gems but then, one smart Ram Singh remembered the sword that the smith had sold earlier. He got up and reminded the king of the impossibility of both claims being true and a...

"I am quitting" said God

“I am quitting, with immediate effect.” said God. I was hit by the suddenness of it. God appearing to you can be quite a shock. “Quitting .. What?” I blurted out. “Quitting from the position of God” He was looking sad, weighed down by something. A fraction of a moment later, the realization of what He had said and the implication that the world was coming to an end dawned on me. I felt as if I have been thrown over a steep cliff into a bottomless abyss.  I stammered, “What? You can’t do that!” “Why on earth not? I am the master of my freewill. Are you telling me I am not?” God retorted. “I mean..  I mean, the world would come to an end.. Where would we go? What would we do? Oh, no. Would we survive? I don’t want to die.” I pleaded. “Don’t be melodramatic. Nothing is going to happen to your world.” God dismissed my pleadings. “Nothing will happen? How would world survive without you?” I persisted, still pleading. “Don’t act dumb. I gave you...
