Did Kejriwal's national ambition kill Gajendra?
This is an attempt to answer the questions asked by
@bwoyblunder in the piece 7 Questions AAP must answer, irrespective of Ashutosh’s
tears.
Any question once asked should not be allowed to remain
unanswered. The unanswered questions don’t die or fade away or wither with the
passage of time, they hang in the atmosphere, like collective, unfelt shame of
the society, forever or till they are answered. Since AAP leaders would not
answer these questions, I am taking the responsibility.
I may not have the benefit of knowledge that witness or a
perpetrator or a conspirator has but this is an attempt to use the information
available in public domain, some deductive reasoning and use of a bit of
plausibility.
Q1: From where
did AAP get Gajendra’s “suicide note’?
A: The short answer is, “It was with the AAP
volunteer who was supposed to hand over the note to Gajendra when he came down
the tree.” but it would be incomplete answer.
Gajendra was supposed to come down the tree after he had
been mollified by Kejriwal, invited to the stage and deliver this speech from
there. After that probably Kejriwal would complete the charade by promising
some money from AAP coffers while a dharna against Vasundhara Raje led by
Gajendra would have been icing on the cake, all this while abusing PM Modi and
LAB.
There is also a probability
that the volunteer who was to hand over the note was the one who had written
it. This would be to ensure that in case Gajendra did not understand the
handwriting, the writer should be at hand to help.
By the way, what was cancelled below the name Gajendra was a
mistake on part of writer. He heard Upendra, wrote that below the last line,
was corrected by the leader who was dictating and he corrected it above the ‘Upendra’
already written. But the mistake he made was to write ‘Singh’ in larger size,
to cover up the space, forgetting that if a natural sequence was followed, larger
space would not be there at all.
Q2 : How does Kumar
Vishwas “read” out mater that doesn’t even exist on the “suicide note”?
A : Please understand that this note was being
read moments after AAP leaders decided the stand to take on the death that had just
occurred. They were not prepared for it and since the strategy was made in
public view, in seconds, it was not well thought out.
Moments ago they had faced a question. What
would be least damaging to them, the stigma of insensitivity of not attempting
to save a farmer from committing suicide or the disgrace of being caught
planning a fake suicide which had just gone horribly wrong, in front of their
eyes? Both stands had their positives and negatives. However, what swung the
case in favour of accepting the insensitivity scenario was that it was only an
ethical issue and they could get away by apologizing, as usual. There is no criminality
in being insensitive and anyway, those opposing PM Modi did not look for ethics
in new partners.
So, Vishwas had to give the spin of suicide
and read statements from the note which were not even written. Now too, he can
get away by saying that he was not reading verbatim but expressing the feelings
penned in the note.
Q3 : Why did Sanjay
Singh walk away from a Press Conference when asked about Gajendra Singh’s
alleged meeting with Manish Sisodia just hours before his death?
A : Sanjay Singh walked away because he was not
sure whether Kejriwal had taken the decision to sacrifice Sisodiya or not.
Gajendra was in touch with Sisodiya as
claimed by former’s family and since it was not denied outright
by Sanjay Singh, it must be true.
Now, Kejriwal has to take a decision and he
has two options. Either he has to accept that whole operation was planned by
Sisodiya & Gajendra and he was not aware of it at all in which case Sanjay
Singh can make a remark or two to sacrifice Sisodiya in the next PC, or alternately,
keep stalling, claiming that it was a suicide of the distressed farmer and hope
that Ashish Khetan can find something to compromise the investigating officer,
in which case Sanjay Singh has to keep running away from the Press Conferences.
Q4 : Why did
multiple AAP leaders claim this was a conspiracy?
A : This is the simplest question. All of
them were crying conspiracy as the strategy which was developed in seconds
after Gajendra unexpectedly died, half an hour before he was supposed to
threaten suicide, was only to claim farmer had committed suicide, because of
LAB and Delhi Police had not tried to save him. In such a hurriedly developed
and communicated strategy, the timing and sequence sometimes can go wrong.
The correct sequence should have been acknowledge
death, declare suicide, declare farmer, link it with LAB, link with BJP, cry
about insensitivity of Delhi Police and last cry about conspiracy of someone
(preferably BJP).
Most did not understand the sequence. Few
cried conspiracy before blaming LAB for it, few even screamed martyr even
before death was announced, few brought in BJP while announcing death. Poor AAP
leaders did not understand or execute the changed strategy at all.
Q5 : Why
sudden U-Turn on conduct of Delhi Police?
A : It
only means that either Khetan has failed to find something or MHA has found
something even more potent on the investigating officer.
Q6 : How did
Alka Lamba declare Gajendra’s death even before the media?
A : As explained above, while others understood
that the sequencial strategy was to be deployed after announcement of Gajendra’s death, Alka Lamba got the sequence horribly
wrong. She missed the most important instruction that death announcement was
the trigger for strategy and not the first step.
Or may be she believed that when an AAP
leader had declared Gajendra had died, what could the poor doctors do?
Q7 : Inappropriate
gestures from Kumar Vishwas and Manish Sisodia
A : What is wrong in confirming that the co
conspirator, who if caught alive can land in Police custody and reveal all the
details about plan is dead?
I am pre-empting the 8th question.
Here it is.
Q8 : Who
killed Gajendra.
A : A post-mortem would reveal that Gajendra died
due to asphyxiation but don’t let this technical description fool anyone.
As Kejriwal found himself straightjacketed as
CM of Delhi and in trying to extricate himself from the stupidity of governing
an ungovernable city with powers of a municipal commissioner, found that LAB
would give him the pan Indian recognition but needed a high point, a show
stopper, a central scene of the drama and Gajendra a wannabe political leader,
a photo op addict who has farmlands too, though in his father’s name willing to provide it.
And Kejriwal went ahead with the plan to
enact a fake suicide drama, to establish his identity as a well wisher of
farmers, to provoke them further on the issue of LAB, to obtain a stick to beat
the NDA government.
It was the national ambition of Arvind Kejriwal
which killed Gajendra.
