The Election Game

Five years passed, but not so quickly. People had to go through a herd of unprecedented govt policies that ill treated them and the government was under scrutiny and was about to fall from power.  However, the rulers,  they still believed they had a last chance to turn things around in their favour despite their helplessness. Unable to make claims on any progress that they said to have made, they stood numb for a while. And that's when they decided to play the masterstroke. Out of the cards they had in their hands they pulled out the "Ace of Spade", the saffron colored card carrying a message that said, "Hindus are in Danger! We have come to save them". The card was played to the face of the players sitting opposite them. The Perfect Card that shan't get defeated regardless of time was played on the perfect occasion.The opposition stood still unable to make any further move, and all of a sudden, the five years of endurance disappeared, the people saw them as saviours who arrived from the past to fight for them and save them from the proclaimed danger. The Game was won. Another five years of suffering began. And we're all in it, the people who never wanted them, who never understood the game.
