When I read in this newspaper last week that the dictator of North Korea has decided to make his teenage daughter his official heir, it made me laugh. North Korea is widely considered the worst country in the world. It has been led by the Kim dynasty since it was created, and this family has presided over an evil empire. Often because they do not know that this exaltation of the ‘dear leader’ is a North Korean import. The damage this has done to Indian democracy is incalculable no matter what these princelings may say in their defence.
