.............Confronted with this swindlers’ list, naming many of her own, you would expect TMC supremo Mamata di – whose infamous Kolaveri di has earlier fallen on a hapless professor fond of cartoons, on a farmer raising an inconvenient truth, and so on – to hit the Writer’s Building roof. Right? Wrong. And here’s why – Didi has apparently discovered the joys of peddling too. When the Saradha ruin surfaced, Mamata first tried to sell her usual Left-plus-Centre conspiracy theories to give TMC a clean chit. When no one bought this, she switched wares and promised to refund depositors Rs 500 crores. But before you swoon at her generosity, note – this money will come from tax-payers, not the government seizing Saradha assets, still linked to powerful agents of change. So it’s the Peter principle – robbing Peter to pay Paul once again...........
