As children, we used to play that game called statue. When the ‘IT’ yells ‘statue !’, everyone else had to hold their actions and not move a muscle. Blinking eyes was allowed, but nothing more. Who ever moved, was out.
I think this game is only played in India, and the country too loves statues. There are new coming every-year. Indian states find it easier to release funds to build huge stone and steel statues, than for actual governance and policy implementation. The other curious thing Indian politicians love to do is to rename things. Places, states, cities, towns, even roads and maybe even rivers.
Its pathetic. I think the reason is that people will die, but statues are going to stay.
