Dookeran badly humiliated


THE EDITOR: Who really is the head of the UNC? I went to a meeting of the party in Diego Martin (a PNM stronghold) on Monday night. When Mr Panday arrived all the men and women sitting at the head table rose as on cue and welcomed the arriving hero. No such luck for Mr Dookeran who is the political leader of the party. No one got up to greet him.


But worse was to follow. Mr and Mrs Panday were seated at the centre of the table like royalty. All sorts of lesser officers were around them. Guess where Mr Dookeran was afforded a seat — at the end of the table. If anyone had pushed too hard, Mr Dookeran would have fallen off the table.


What I can’t understand is why Mr Dookeran allows himself to be so badly humiliated.


What was I doing at the meeting? I live in the area and want to hear all the politicians have to say. God help us if the UNC ever gets back into power. They have no class!
