Don't  you find it exceedingly revolting to have to submit, practically everyday, to the invasion of your privacy by the uninvited and uninviting image of Anil Bachoo proudly proclaiming that some obscure road/bridge/drain is being re-made and “nou pe depense Rs40m pou sa”, (if it is not more!)?

 

Even, if weforget the painful eyesore such images have on our retina, how can we obliterate the repulsive, nauseous, near-obscene talks of millions of our taxpayers’money -- or borrowed money that we, not Bachoo or the government alone, will be called to reimburse -- spent on non-priorities, when there is a crying need for other national PRODUCTIVE developments? Speaking of millions, when the majority of us can ill afford to find the pitiful “quelques roupies” to buy the much needed pair of shoes to replace the old one with “talons percés” of our kids? It looks very like “jaskme pe namack cherna”—rubbing salt on our wounds! By the way, have you noticed Bachoo’s gleeful frenzy to dilapidate money that does not belong to him? Or, is he motivated by some screwy philanthropic desire to enrich some specifi c building and construction companies by allocating juicy contracts to them? Against certain underthe- table considerations?

 

To come back to the issue of having our privacy violated by his over-saturated images telecasted by ever-obliging (towards the powerful of the day) MBC of Dan Callikhan.

 

If the idea was to boost the image of Anil Bachoo and -- by his grotesque “cinema lors terrain”-- that of the present Government, then, alas!, it has proved a complete fiasco! The strategy, instead of “promoting” him, has only succeeded in provoking a generalized antipathy and disgust of all things connected, even remotely, with Bachoo.

 

I don’t know who is his PRO or the image-builder, but if I were the Minister, I would instantly fire him. This adviser seems to ignore the archi-proved rule “le trop nuit”. Over exposure, as any cameraman knows, always spoils the image!
