According to Shekhar Gupta, the dream year for the journalists was 1984. That year so many things happened in Indian political space that the news desks were feeling resource crunch to cover them. I do not know about that. I just can remember, I was 2 and Half years then and my father took me to the Kendrapara High school Ground to see Indira Gandhi. That was her last visit to Odisha. I do not know, how can I have a photographic memory of that event till now, I can not remember anything close to that during that time; may be morning shows the day. :)
Then I remember several noisy elections in rural setup; those were quite colorful. I loved the election counting days, because we would have back to back movies on Doordarshan. Still, they were not noisy. The Noise increased with the advent of Private TV channels. The noise level broke limits when the Jamuna water sipped into the newly prepared Common Wealth Game Village buildings; Arnab Goswamy reached his teen, Rahul Knawal was born and Barkha bruised by Radi tapes, was trying to regain her youth.
And this was the time, a well orchestrated Noisy drama made its way into Indian politics. The main protagonist of that drama was Narendra Modi who was smart enough to understand the requirement of the new age media houses. They were competing for NOISE and the NOISE himself was available.
The noise was Narendra Modi.
The NOISE made its way through the following stages:
Stage 1:
First few years the noise was in the form of CAG reports and then the related pandemonium in the parliament and he subsequent replacement of Parliament debate by debates in corporate funded media houses.
Stage 2:
Then the staged crusade against corruption through Saffron agents like Anna Hazare, Ram dev, Kiran Bedi and controversial Army chief V.K Singh.
Stage 3:
New media enterprise in the form of Unreal Times and Faking News, which took over the imagination of gossip loving Indian youths.
Stage 4:
Then the noise was spread onto the social media in the form of filthy cartoons of Dr. Manmohan singh and Smt. Sonia Gandhi and spoofs of Rahul Gandhi on Youtube.
Stage 5:
Suddenly from no where the Gujrat Model hit the stand. It was a classical Shock & Awe drill played on bot the social media and mainstream media like economic Times.
Stage 5:
Dec 16 rape in Delhi, one of the well orchestrated movements that build the crescendo before the NOISE himself made an entry.
Stage 6:
Finally, the NOISE made a grand entry with his modulating voice. Even, on the Republic Day, he challenged the PM of India; even Pakistan will never do it.
This is how NOISE spoke fro the last 4 years. No issue was given a go by to target Dr. Singh. Be it:
People of India; 31% of them lapped it up; India finally elected her 15th PM. Suddenly, he became an orator to Narendra Damodar Mauni.
On 21st May i.e. five days before taking oath of the office , he siad,
Then came the report of a killing of army jawan on the border, still the new Mauni baba went ahead and literally bent at 45 degree before Nawaz Shariff.
Then cams the occasion of inducting Ministers, he did not falter. He went ahead and presided over one of the most criminal cabinet in history.
The noise was Narendra Modi.

This is how NOISE spoke fro the last 4 years. No issue was given a go by to target Dr. Singh. Be it:
- the CAG report
- the killing of Army jawan on the border
- the corruption issue
- the rape in dec 16
- the price of Diesel
- the Gas price hike
People of India; 31% of them lapped it up; India finally elected her 15th PM. Suddenly, he became an orator to Narendra Damodar Mauni.
On 21st May i.e. five days before taking oath of the office , he siad,
CAG reports must not be used to target opponentsImpressive start, isn't it? The media which has MODIfied itself now into MOIDA played the ball shamelessly. There was no heated debate in TV studios and that was great precursor for the impending SILENCE that was coming our way.
Then came the report of a killing of army jawan on the border, still the new Mauni baba went ahead and literally bent at 45 degree before Nawaz Shariff.
No question was asked or no answer was given.
Then cams the occasion of inducting Ministers, he did not falter. He went ahead and presided over one of the most criminal cabinet in history.
No question was asked or no answer was given.
Then cam the appointment of former TRAI chief Nirpinder Mishra as Principle Secretary through a ordinance rout, when NDA enjoys a majority in Loksbaha. Remember, Mr. Mishra was the person on whose advice A. Raja turned down the PM and FM suggestions to auction 2G spectrum. Later the same was use PRESUMED as a scam by CAG and Modi used that handle to ASSUME power at center.
Then came the barbaric rape and murder in Badaun in UP. The man who was asking for vote using the insecurity of Dec 16 rape incident, suddenly went into a mute mode. Even the UN Secretary General was forced to make a statement, but he is yet to make one.
One fine morning, we read a news in some corner of the news papers (there was no breaking news) that Diesel price has been increased.
No question was asked or no answer was given.

Then came the news of gas price hike; we came to know about it looking at the share value of Ambani on Stock Exchange. This man was opposing the Gas price hike before election.
No question was asked or no answer was given.
So much silence from the Embodiment of NOISE, that people are concerned whether it is an ISI conspiracy. :)
Silence of NOISE is a concern as, this man ran a concerted campaign against the Silence of Dr. Singh before election, and when he assumed it, he is not speaking on important issues which is making him look like a HYPOCRITE.
