Oh god Genie, amazing post tbh. Tbh, I didn't have much idea about his involvement in the Anti-Sikh Riot thing but I have heard about it from my Dadu. They distinctly remember it but due to the lack of media coverage, he got away with doing just as much criminal stuff as Salman did. No wonder he calls Salman his 'family'.
I feel bad for Aish tbh. What an atrocious thing to say amidst many other nonsensical and horrid things he already said. Funnily enough, he would get away with this as well and people will worship him. Such a self-serving group of murderous, hypocritical morons. I am so mad.
SG- He was the one who persuaded Indira Gandhi for Rajiv's marriage with Sonia, infact she stayed at his place before the marriage. His brother and he were deeply involved as power brokers/deal makers during Rajiv's time, all shady deals. So many corruption charges but he could only get away because Gandhis' themselves were involved.
He supported Blue star, riots- heck he made a statement on Doordarshan that we will not leave anyone and that there would be severe backlash. He totally benefited during the Emergency time , this when his own mother is a Sikh. Take any journalist account or book from that time, he is heavily cited all around.
I think he is still chargesheeted for instigating riots during that time.Just that there is no resolution to the riots in general , he gets away.
He is a very smart cookie though, knows Gandhis cannot blow his secrets, SP handles the 3rd front , by doing campaigns for Modi , he is in his good books too. So all in all clean record.
His brother and he fall out because he pinned him for all the corruption scandals. Also much of his black money was stocked in Romola Bachchan's name, his brother's wife who refused to give the money and property back for a long time.😆
I guess now the Gandhis' are not in power , there is some settlement which is why Priyanka attended the wedding of his brother's daughter.
I think AB Sr was too over-zealous when he called Salman family, but so so embarrassing for Ash .Imagine his granddaugther listening to this IV few years down the line, how effed up will it be for her.
Dude, the parallels with Salman are so freaky but then again this man's PR and connections work better than Reshma's publicity spin.😆
