Shadow War

#Shadow #War

Thomas Isaac and G. Sudhakaran are Mallayas who rowed in the same boat in the backwaters of Alappuzha but kept their eyes on only two shores. While one measured the whole world with his theories and corrected America, the other wanted to stand on the soil of Alappuzha.

The self-reliance shown by Sudhakaran, who, despite being offered a big chair in Delhi, kept to himself and said, "My Ambalappuzha is enough for me," is unattainable even in Isaac's dreams today. While Isaac is an orphan in the election fray today, Sudhakaran's strong moves in Ambalappuzha as an independent with Congress support are a new textbook for political Kerala.

​Time has shown that Sudhakaran's precaution of coming to the stage only after asking three times whether Isaac had left was not in vain. The Isaac was a mere advisor of unrealistic matter while G, a pragmatist. When Isaac played a drama with a hug in the case of Omanakuttan of Cherthala, who collected  money from those gathered at a relief camp during the floods in 2018, Sudhakaran had appeared as the true leader of the people, who set out the facts and corrected Omanakuttan

That old refrain of Isaac, who insults film actors  by calling them 'comics', has now fallen on his own head like a thunderbolt. If you see the same people who brought Innocent and Mukesh into politics coming out to mock Ramesh Pisharody, there will be no one who does not put a finger to their nose. 

 When we see Isaac, who asked  to enjoy the breeze and coolness of Munnar to the fullest, being trashed on social media today, it is clear that people are not as quick to forget events as politicians think. In any case, Isaac will not dare to pass a comment against Sudhakaran like Vijayaraghavan. And just as Sudhakaran knows who will rule and who will fall in the land of Alappuzha, Isaac, who went to repair Konni, Ranni and the entire Pathanamthitta in the meantime, does not know.
