It was possible that the London-based PR firm had been altogether responsible for the lack of coherence that ensued Antara learning her narrative in 2018, that it intended to make gains from it, that it had indeed made gains from it but was waiting it out to realise those gains.
For example, Antara had come across the allusion that it was Joe Biden's idea for "contact-corroboration", then to create a frenzy around it, then to deny it. Otherwise, learning one's narrative should never be followed by "contact-corroboration". Biden introduced the idea and unsteadied the world.
It seemed to Antara that it was the London-based PR firm's idea to introduce the names of major DC agencies and to leave it at that. "There's a high wall, there's a wide moat around it, there were crocs in that moat" and that was it. There were no further instructions, it was status quo ante and a continuing torture-surveillance immediately got far worse. Humiliation, parody, ridicule, of oneself and one's past life, were added to what had been merely physical torture, till 2018.
There ought to have been a designated way, whose idea was it, in the US or India, to hold it back? "On learning your narrative, you write to the travel desk of this-and-that department, introduce yourself, they'll take it forward, they'll tell you what to do". Kolkata had feared that the moment Antara learnt her narrative, a group of Pentagon honchos would hook up with Silicon Valley to prevent any further action. Why was Kolkata wrong? Did it not know about Chetla, a woman deliberately planted in the US only to be a hindrance, at no personal cost?
No wonder, the endless rhetoric around Donald Trump--what Putin thought of him and how Japan was enjoying the anarchy--was just not ending. The more Trump and Biden, the more Gaddes and Vaddis in every US department. How could anyone take any work forward, how would democracy survive the assault of what was merely one London-based PR firm?
