Aaj Ki Aawaz

The little Chilly has done it again …Tehlka's exposé on Zahira's flip flop,
Tehlka says that Zaheera for her deposition had opened shop!!

This is the bane of India's judicial system…..all that litigants get is the next date,
And in the mean time outside the Courts witnesses are bought or broken at the going rate.

BJP says the Courts will decide on this….whether Zaheera's silence has been bought??
And if so then the Courts should do something to stem this rot.

How about making the offence for perjury stringent like in USA,
People will then dread committing perjury and speak the truth and stick to what they say.

Wish someone had done something similar for the 1984 riots trials…..spy cams were nowhere on the scene,
So people like Tytler and Kumar were able to 'do the needful' to wipe their slates clean.

Congress is indeed being hypocritical when it comes to Gujarat,
Because in the 1984 riots was Congress's own haath.

Like the pot calling the kettle black,
Had Congress been true people like Tytler , Kumar and Bhagat would have got from the Party 'the sack'.

The arches put up in Patna now have banners that wish you a Merry Christmas…EC observer was not amused!!
Knows why and how these arches were to be used!!

Goswami the DM who gained fame for stopping Advani in a speech during the General Elections stood tongue tied,
If fact it looked as if he had just cried.

EC Observer Rao will now submit his report to CEC….will it be damning for Laloo??
But do not bet on this because there must be some reason why they call Laloo chaloo!!!

Congress of course should be happy with Laloo tripping and bumbling,
In the Seat negotiations with Laloo Congress will take advantage of his stumbling.

In fact some of Laloo's chamchas say that Congress behaved like a 'tamaashbeen' (spectator),
Look at this as being very mean.

They vow 'kal humaari bhi aaye gi baari',
They continue 'Tabh hum uttaar leh geh kasar saari!!!'

Why is Laloo so hell bent against the Lok Pal Bill….is it because he feels the Bill is anti Laloo,
After all he knows that he was, is and will always be up to doing something chaloo.

A RJD goon has asked the EC if he can give money to his wife….sarcastically of course,
EC should respond he could do so as long he can prove the wife is his and also prove the money's source.

BJP says that Congress wants to get BJP leadership mired in litigation,
Some true and some by creation!!!

BJP says that Congress is using the CBI like a tool…..wrench, screw driver and hammer,
Achche achche logh on hearing CBI's name start to stammer!!!

Amrinder's 'in house' Commission has given his son a clean chit,
Justice Nehra has done his bit.

As people see it this Commission was 'andar ki baat',
Totally biased Enquiry and justice ke saath Raje ka vishwaas ghaath.

Confucius says……How can the accused appoint the Inquirer….injudicious and very bad.
He continues…..Justice has just been had!!!

Can SP and BJP come together???
Their quest for power , home turf realities and anti Congress stand could be the reasons to tether.

But then SP will loose out on the Muslim Vote,
And Muslims trusting BJP is indeed very remote.

Hulka Fulka

They say Sonia loves classical music…Raag Darbari is her favourite one,
Congressis sing her praises in this Raag to get her attention.

In the North it is time for mumfali and tea,
And of course the often urge to pee.

Confucius says….Government Offices in Delhi are littered with mumfali shells.
He continues….Sunny spots the mumfali shells tells!!!
