It was such a deflating moment, 10000 Indians were being targeted by Chinese Data Mining Agency, it had the Who’s who of India, the politicians, entertainers (Cricketers are no longer sportsmen, they are simply entertainers, after all they have mingled with the Hindi Films and Advertising agencies in such a seamless manner that they have outgrown their sporting links altogether), scientists, bankers, bureaucrats, businessmen, defence and security establishments, think- tanks, media personnel and almost everyone whom you can think about.
This has caused an earthquake like tremor on the terra firma in India, the politician who always considered himself to be close to the power centres realised that they were living in a fool’s paradise. They were just typical ‘Aam Aadmi’, no not the Aam Aadmi Party type just plain “Mango people”. To rub salt into the wounds, the two bit opposition Pappu types finds a mention there but despite having been there and done that…oh no(!!) This moment was similar to the one related to the Swiss Bank account holders list, which also caused lot of heartburn, after all every Tom,Dick and Harry…..oh no every Sharma, Singh and Gupta figured in the list but we could not make the cut. We even got in touch with the Swiss bank authorities to include our names as an addendum, it was a matter of prestige and our reputation was at stake. They are a hard nut to crack…so the exercise was in vain.
It was quite a knock out blow but we survived, but this time we are not going to take it lying down. I am told the Chinese won’t mind obliging, they may just add our names at a cost, what is a couple of thousand dollars when the family honour is at stake…. we can’t be second to any pipsqueak Ambani come lately. So the parleys have already commenced, the Chinese have promised to help, negotiations are on, an addendum is expected soon…. “apna time ayega”……
