One wonders whether the Delhi law minister has not heard the age old dictum about the left hand being unaware of what the right is doing or then his penchant for grabbing the headlines and remaining in the limelight forces his hand to widely publicise every "selfless" deed performed by him.......
Somnath Bharti's nocturnal nigh wanderings continue unabated and the same stretched into the wee hours of Thursday morning too; the only difference herein being that he ended up playing good samaritan instead of being involved in unruly mobocracy.........
Bharti reportedly helped an accident victim near the IIT Delhi flyover and to record the event for posterity and ensure his fifteen minutes of fame even took to twitter to widely publicise his seemingly "selfless" deed........
According to Bharti's office, he and a few of his cohorts were moving around in a car late on Wednesday night/early on Thursday morning when they were confronted with the gruesome sight of a scooterist hitting the above mentioned flyover at considerable speed toppling over at least four or five times and ultimately getting trapped under the same.......
The minister and his aide not only pulled out the victim from under the scooter but also put him in an auto and promptly sent him to the AIIMS trauma centre along with an AAP volunteer; but also visited him in the hospital and enquired about his well being........
Continuing his good deed, the minister also took the time out to call up the Delhi police authorities and duly informed them about the calamitous predicament that had befallen the victim ironically named Bharat who fortunately suffered nothing more than a few bruises, bumps and a profusely bleeding nose........
Lo and behold!!! messages both congratulatory as well as deprecatory soon started inundating twitter; while a majority of the tweets were laudatory and praised the minister for his selfless service to humanity, a few were not only deprecatory but also downright humiliating; accusing the minister of ulterior motives and only doing the needful as he needed to refurbish his tainted image........
Like him or loath him, but there is certainly no ignoring one Mr. Somnath Bharti his vigilante moves earn him notoriety, infame, and last but not the least a continued spell in the full media glare; while his "sterling humanitarian" deeds earn him bouquets and brickbats in almost equal measure........
Way to go Mr. Bharti you have certainly mastered the art of remaining in the limelight no matter what.......
