We don’t give a damn. Do whatever you can!!”, said Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari, who was at his confident best, a quality so rarely seen in any Congress spokesperson in a long time specially since Anna Hazare had announced his fast.
"People of this country think they can change the way our government works. They think that they can teach us lesson in 2014 elections. Absolute rubbish. They don't even realise that world will come to an end in 2012. So, no chance for elections and us getting thrashed. Pity on them", Tewari further added.
When a journalist wanted to know the basis of his seemingly firm belief that world will come to an end in 2012, Tewari shot back, "Don't you watch India TV? They show it all day. In fact, special screening of one such episode was conducted for all Congress MPs at a senior minister's residence. After watching and re-watching that episode, our party has come to the conclusion that we don't need to mend our ways. We feel lot more confident now".
He has termed his theory as Vision 2012, a term remarkably similar to Vision 2020 which envisions India becoming a developed country by 2020. When asked to give evidence of his Vision 2012 theory, Mr. Tewari substantiated,"Look around yourself. Petrol is Rs. 75 per liter. Inflation is almost highest ever. You yourself say that corruption is like never before. There are terrorist attacks at will. Our PM has already told that he does not have any Magic Wand to tackle these problems. Now, if our PM firmly believes that these problems are beyond our control, we have all the reasons to believe that this is the beginning of the end".
He says his party has devised special strategy for Vision 2012 including advising MPs not to visit their respective constituencies. "When the world is coming to an end in 2012, why should they waste time in Constituencies. In fact, a team of spokesperson led by Mr. Digvijay Singh has been formed to make irresponsible statements to create public awareness that we just don't care. Its absolutely necessary to create this awareness so that public can realize at the earliest that waiting for 2014 elections is futile", he concluded.
