The newspaper with the lowercase masthead reports that Rahul Gandhi's magazine is on the backburner (http://www.hindustantimes.com/News/celebwatch/Rahul-s-mag-on-the-back-burner/Article1-452365.aspx)
A general buzz had been in the air for a while, but did not know that it would make it to the front of the daily so quickly Apparenty, say some going in and out of AICC, RG was getting perturbed at the project becoming media fodder. Considering his own PR strategy has changed remarkably in the past 15 months and has done wonders for him, the magazine making news for all the wrong reasons must have upset him.
Many probably reasons are doing the rounds ...from the most inane to teh crafty and the fictitious. Some say that Madam would-be editor was getting too big for her shoes, while some say that she was trying to become close to Big Boss (RG) through the project. But unfortunately, the ladder on which she was trying to climb, did not even have a first step.
Btw, she went ahead and cried foul at the reporter's expense, which was recognised as a desperate, last resort.
However, in general I think it is a big loss for the youth of the country, who may just have gained some new insight through this mag.
Anyway, more later!
