The Bench had sent the Ayodhya dispute for mediation on March 8 in a bid to heal minds and hearts. Despite massive efforts by the State government, total power restoration is likely to be completed in Bhubaneswar only by May 15. Will they write of a Prime Minister who had promised to set right everything that had gone wrong in India? Will they chronicle the political biography of a man who sadly frittered away the colossal mandate Indian citizens gave him? It is this image that will define that see-saw encounter: of Pant walloping muscular sixes into the night sky.
