Rishi Rich it is then finally, after Liz Truss’s disastrous stint of mere 44 days in 10 Downing Street. “The Colony has struck back”, with due apologies to Lucas Films Ltd, some of the oldies would recall”Empire Strikes Back”, the 80s block buster. Yes to an extent it is the ‘alien’ in the Island nation, who has captured the throne. An alien, a brown man, a Hindu ruling the roost. A Kamla in US, Rishi in UK, Indian diaspora is definitely going places. Brown and black is a deadly combination, both of them have an African connection as well. One has it in the blood the other has a connection through his parents having migrated from the Eastern part of the once Dark Continent. Brits need to be wary of this connection, another man from another era, a century ago also sorted them out first in South Africa and then literally bundled them out from India, you guessed it, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Men and women of colour have finally come of age after centuries of having been a “burden” on the “Beasts of Burden“, their ‘white brethren’ who have had to carry this for centuries. It is now the turn of the Burdens to come to the aid of the Beasts. Having once been equated with Dogs, “Indians and Dogs not allowed!”, these beastly people and their beastly religion, as Winston Churchill once remarked, is the toast of the Empire whose Sun never set. It has now eclipsed not just set.
Murthys have also played a part in this success story, Infosys founder Mr Narayan Murthy is a visionary, he founded Infosys and took it to dizzying heights. His progeny did one better she picked on a start up and has groomed it to the pinnacle of British Parliament. The fact that he is richer than the King is incidental. No wonder there are memes galore that with the the Three Murthys in 10 Downing Street, high time it be renamed ‘Teen Murthy’. As it is Indians have a penchant for changing of names. The other one doing the rounds is, it be rechristened as Dousing Street, after all he has his role cutout as a firefighter in these trying times.
Rishi as the name suggests means a Sage, a sagacious man, a politician at heart, just happens to have the Indian blood flowing in his veins, but obviously he is a dyed in the wool conservative and rightly so. He is a British citizen who has to serve the people of Britain, which I am sure he will do full justice to, having seen his impeccable credentials . After Bo Jo and the Lettuce Truss finally the islanders have homed onto friend Sunak, better late than never. So the Punjabi in Sunak has to come to the fore to take the bull by the horns, while continuing to worship the cows as a devout Hindu. Like all Indians he is aware that to win over the fathers, you have to first get mothers on your side, so naturally worshipping cows is the first step towards getting the Bulls going and get the Bears off the radar. Pound has off late become a light weight and can do with some heft and lift. I am sure a generous dose of Lassi, Maaki ki Roti and Sarson da Saga will script a new saga of Salvation of the Goras! Go for it Rishi, hum tumhare saath hain!!!!

This is the power of the system which considers merit and merit alone which enables capable person irrespective of cast, creed or religion to reach the helm. Further, he is second generation Indian, born and brought up in Britain. Therefore I am not sure how we can take pride or even for that matter, credit in his achievement.
