Why the Corporate Czars are Silent over increasing attacks on Social Fabric and rising Communalism ?

Speak No Evil, See No Evil

This silence by the powerful has nothing exceptional about it.

Would it be apt to say that their dictum for these times has become ‘Speak No Evil, See No Evil and Hear No Evil’

Perhaps Rahul Bajaj’s last public appearance can be seen as a classic example wherein he had asked few tough questions to Amit Shah about mass lynching, glorification of Gandhi’s assassins or the atmosphere of fear in the industry, which was followed by complete silence from Indian Corporate world’s Who’s Who – who had gathered there – as if what the late Bajaj was talking was tale from another planet.

Forget larger constitutional issues or social problems, this docility / passivity of these corporate leaders extends to their own personal matters as well.
