The economy surged 8.2 per cent last fiscal, at marginally better rate than 8.1 per cent Central Statistical Organization had forecast in February, placing India as the world's second fastest growing economy after China's 9.8 per cent…….so BJP's campaign was factual!!!!

Manmohan is being the Devil's Advocate by speaking up for the tainted Ministers…..he says it is the People's Verdict!!!! Now Manmohan is acting naïve…..doesn't he know how these goons arm twist Voters to get Votes????? Definitely in this case the People have not got a representative they deserve!!!! RJD Gang can boast that they won the elections with one hand tied behind the back….yes… the Voters …….tied and twisted!!! Manmohan should remove the blinkers the coalition compulsions have forced him to wear!!!!! Height of injudiciousness ….Manmohan terming the Sack Taint Ministers demand as unjust!!!!!

After being slighted in the Rajya Sabha Elections the split was inevitable…..Paswan's has jettisoned his party's strained alliance with Laloo Prasad's RJD in Bihar, Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) president Ramvilas Paswan declared his party would not have any ties with the RJD in the next year's Assembly elections in the state. Paswan has asked his Party Workers to build 243 Pillars (number of seats in Bihar Assembly)…..Laloo will ensure that the material supplied for the Pillars is sub-standard resulting in crumbling Pillars!!! Laloo has a Doctorate in this area !!!!

By the way Laloo is trying to get the Commies, SP and BSP to see his point of view on the Tainted Minister's matter. His USP is……. "Hamaam mein sabh nange hai……. tomorrow it could be your turn!!!!"
Commies have developed a system for voicing their dissent as and when the UPA Government waivers from their Agenda……they let the UPA Government know about this via the Press!!!!! Recently the Commies have been cozying up to the Media…….and we all thought that in Communism , Free Press is considered as an impediment!!!!! And please now Commies no longer entertain at the Coffee Home!!!!!

As the purge NDA appointees Project is being carried out by the UPA……one quaint development……the Middlemen are not being purged!!!!! Confucius says….. 'Ghoos' has no Political affiliations!!!!!!

A mini reshuffle is on the anvil ……Satish Sharma will be 'landing' at the Petroleum Ministry and Moshina Kidwai too is being given a Cabinet Berth. Some say one or two more may be added to the list!!!!!

Tata's are on a 'Budget' spree……..one lakh car and Budget Hotels!!!! Confucius says….Small is beautiful ( both the cars and rooms will be small) …but uncomfortable!!!!!

Kudos to President Kalam …….during the recent investiture Ceremony he time and again moved up to the recipient, whenever he felt the recipient was aged or unfit!!! Such people are a rarity.
