Aaj Ki Aawaz

In Haryana politicians have taken the sugar issue very lightly,
Because majority of them suffer from Diabetes and hence sugar for them is something unsightly.

Some villagers served Kuldip s/o Bhajan sugarless tea…..to make him realize the taste,
Kuldip is a diabetic and is habituated to drinking tea without sugar …their effort went to waste!!!

'No bread then give them cakes' akin to this 'No sugar give them Equal or Sugar Free',
Haryana also faces a water shortage….no problem give them Bisleri!!!

This is how unrealistic some of Haryana's new generation politicians are,
This is because form the real Haryana they are very far.

Take Birender Singh togged up in pant and shirt ……shuns dihathi attire,
Feels his dress attracts the youth to him…..feels this gets his ratings with the youth higher.

The Mercedes cars that Bhajan roams about are not reflected in his declared assets….who owns these???
Bhajan would say that these are with him on life term lease!!!

What about his Golf Links house…….whose is it and what is its worth,
Bhajan Lal will say he inherited it at birth???

Bhajan boasts that he has worked his way up ….says his hands are still hard from the hard kamaee,
Actually hard kamaee should be replaced with haath ki safai.

Chautala knows he has his back to the wall……that is why his demeanour is abs mellow,
Otherwise Chautala is a pretty aggressive and acid - witted fellow.

Because Chautala is no longer 'abhay' as he realizes that he is not 'ajay'…scared at the prospect of loss,
What a change after five years as Haryana's Boss????

Chautala blames the Congress for the Reliance ownership spat,
In the Reliance fiasco Chautala smells a Congress remote controlled rat!!!!

BJP is categorical that BJP will never ally with INLD…..but INLD says its doors are open to all,
Post elections if INLD and BJP get the numbers will BJP take INLD's call????

In Goa the BJP led Government has been asked to prove its majority on the House floor,
If they cannot automatically they will be shown the door.

Jamir prides himself as a Governor who is different……danced when India grieved the Tsunami tragedy,
His difference is very easy to see!!!

In Bihar Shotgun has finally appeared on the scene….delay ka cause,
Because BJP High Command had pressed 'Pause'!!!

Like Laloo Shotgun is a great crowd puller…..nothing more,
Both feel Administration is a real bore.

Laloo's formula…….talk dehaathi,
Live vilaithi.

Sweaters he wears are Pringle,
Aloo that he eats are also wafers from Pringle.

Imagine a 'Pringled' Laloo talking to poor, harassed and hungry Biharis….what a sham,
Because fact is for their pathetic plight Laloo cares a damn.

Uma is also on the job in Bihar…..but she only praises herself,
Rather that putting BJP she has put herself on the Bihar Electoral shelf.

Jaitley, Mahajan and Uma realize that a good outcome in Bihar would do all round good,
For one get the Party out of the despondency mood!!!

Fragmented UPA and united NDA is boosting their hopes……NDA feeling optimistic,
And inside news is that now Laloo andar andar se is pessimistic!!!

Seriously…..

Amu shows you what happened during the 1984 riots…….though some dialogues have been muted,
Confucius says….Truth being muted is the only way truth can be refuted!!!!

The goggled politician's role in the riots is shown,
And mind you in this matter he was not alone!!!

I feel Sonia should see this movie……..maybe movie will make her realize the pain,
Time she did something to wash this gruesome stain.

Confucius says…… Getting justice not only wipes tears but stops them too…..and there is a sort of closure.
He continues….. Till justice is not given the person remains in the event's exposure!!!!

Hulka Fulka

Blair says he has never sent flowers to wife Cherie…ghar ki murgi daal barabar,
Cherie says that Tony can say what he wants as long as 10 Downing Street is their ghar!!!

Once they leave the ghar she will take all the hisaab kitaab,
And will reveal all in her kitaab.

A practicing Lawyer from Junagadh claims that he is Pravin Babi's adopted son,
Says when he was seven this was done.

Ask Bhatt , Kabir and Danny …says this can be confirmed from Praveen's so called dosts,
Says that he has the necessary proof to support his boasts!!!

Many in Bollywood are shivering at Abu Salem's extradition……..Sanjay Dutt for one,
Remember it is alleged he got a AK 52 gun from Salem….though Dutt says it was only for fun!!!

Bharat Kumar
