Can't fight age
I never thought the Leftists would admit to bowing down before anything, but even they can't fight time. Akshaya Mukul of the Times of India reports that Sitaram Yechury has hinted at the imminent retirement of Harkishen Singh Surjeet and Jyoti Basu from active politics, saying: "Both Surjeet and Basu are scientific Marxists [sic] who cannot fight age."
All those of you who feel contempt for the left, it isn't time to celebrate yet. Quite the opposite. For Comrade Karat will, if anything, pursue their misguided policies with even more youthful vigour.
In other news, the BJP moans that Manmohan Singh is the "weakest prime minister" India has ever had. (Well, bring him down then.) It boasts that the BJP is now a "distinct ideological pole in Indian politics".
Well, we've got the pole, now bring on the stripper.
No Jyotida, not you. Back to your old-age home now. Somebody get this man a dhuti. What's that? Poletariat? Oh, go away.
