So prophetic?

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) ideologue Yogendra Yadav, who was in the thick of the action at the "dharna" site at ground zero across Rail Bhavan, appeared a tad out of sync with AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal. While Kejriwal had publicly declared that he had come "prepared" to stake it out for 10 days and was seen spending the night on the open street covered by a thick blue quilt, Yadav had made no such preparations. On Tuesday, the second day of the agitation, Yadav was seen walking around carrying a tiny green packet with his toothbrush and toothpaste peeping out of it. When quizzed about it, Yadav laughed, "Obviously, I didn't come prepared for even 48 hours." Prophetically, the AAP's much-touted 10-day dharna was called off by 7.30 p m the same day.
