The politics of separation is well and truly on in India. The rate at which new political parties are formed at the expense of older ones goes to show that the hackneyed tag of 'unity in diversity' does not apply to politics practised in India. The irony this time round is that Subroto Mukherjee, who has been famous(or, infamous?) for his leftist loyalties in spite of his donning firstly, Congress and then, Trinamool colours, is forming a statewide anti-leftist forum, and that too, by going against Trinamool Congress, which is obviously notorious for it having 'anti-leftism' as its only apparent political ideology. In fact, 'political ideology' is a misnomer when it comes to the Mamata Banerjee fraternity. That the opposition in this state is in a total mess would be an understatement. Perhaps the political colour of the state is to remain gory for the times to come.
