Facts cannot be overlooked or denied or evaded through excuses and justifications.

I always maintain that obvious facts cannot be overlooked or denied or evaded through excuses and justifications. 

His comments not only makes sense but drives home lot of messages if one can read between the sentences that he utters like , for example how INC failed to use the services of people like him effectively and also misused another bureaucrat as a puppet PM. 

I wrote a comment to Chetan Bhagat’s article in 2013 itself [find links at the end] when the cabal of MSM tried to evade facts and became self-appointed advisers giving generous advice to the PM aspirant then. 

I keep reminding these three quotes for anyone who ignores facts and decides to divert from facts. 

Thomas H. Huxley says, “Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and whatever abysses nature leads, or you will learn nothing.” 

John Adams says, “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” 

Ayn Rand says, "We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading reality." 

This was my scathing reply to Chetan Bhagat in 2013 https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/The-underage-optimist/time-topolish-those-very-rough-edges/
