Cats, whiskers and different kinds of mice -
MJ Akbar, Sunday Guardian
Some of the hype is sui generis: it comes with the DNA. But most of it is in the eye of the beholder. By the latter measure, media becomes some fire-breathing dragon which has leapt out of dreaded mythology and landed straight into the reality of the living room, leaving its angry victim quivering helplessly, or bemused adherents in an addictive haze.

Verbatim |
 Shashi Kant Sharma, Defence Secretary, is a surprise appointment as the new Comptroller and Auditor General following the retirement of Vinod Rai. the fact that as a senior officer in the Defence Ministry he had been a vital part of the decision-making process involving the most controversial purchase of Tatra trucks and the Agusta Westland helicopters, it ought to have automatically ruled him out for appointment as CAG. Conversely, the fact that as a bureaucrat he was a party to these deals may be precisely why he was appointed the CAG. He cannot be expected to pick holes in the very deals he had sanctioned as a senior bureaucrat in his new role as the CAG. Simple.

A conscientious citizen has challenged the appointment through a PIL in the Supreme Court.
