Very Inaccessible Persons

The right amount of inaccessibility makes you a VIP. If you become accessible to everybody, you might become a popular social worker but not a VIP. If there is a security ring around you, it also projects you as a VIP. A barrier of sycophants around you also makes you feel important. If some VIP is available to everybody all the time, people would say, ‘bada vehla aadmi ai.’

Many leaders of the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee accused Captain Amarinder Singh as being ‘inaccessible’. Perhaps, because he keeps a ring of chamchas around him who decide whom Amarinder should meet. Sukhpal Khera clearly stated that Amarinder Singh is the captive of a coterie. They should understand the Captain is not only a captain but also a raja. How could you expect a raja to be so readily available to his praja.

For politicians, accessibility is good and makes them popular but only before the elections. Once they get elected, a wall of chamchas and security personnel should immediately take over. The problem with Captain Amarinder Singh seemed that he remained inaccessible at the wrong time. Rajinder Kaur Bhattal has accused Amarinder’s coterie to the extent that it would issue passes and only those workers with the passes could meet him in election times.

A bell rang at the door and a politician ran towards the door with folded hands. A chamcha shouted from behind, “Sir keep sitting, the elections are over.”
