India, bereft of problems, finally discovers its own First World ones January 30, 2021, 7:58 PM IST Indrajit Hazra is Editor Views, Economic Times. His attempt to comment on everything under the sun has made him a social menace in certain social media circles. It’s settled then. For all those whose conspiracy theories had fuelled the conspicuous theory (nowadays known as ‘fact’) that a sadhu, Gumnami Baba — The Babaji With No Name, if you’re into Spaghetti Easterns — last spotted in the Ayodhya-Faizabad area in the 1980s, was actually Subhas Chandra Bose living in post-Netaji anonymity, I bear bad news. I, not Bose, must be Gumnami Baba, happily impervious that I seem to have been to what has been happening in the country for decades. Because going by last week’s happenings, India must have solved all its problems, faced all its challenges, removed all its obstacles and become a First World country with First World problems with Indian characteristics.
