Aaj Ki Aawaz

Yechury says that Commies are not pet dogs of Sarkaar but are watch dogs……..what type????
Barking or biting or all this is just a hype!!!

Because Commies by the looks of it have a soundless bark and toothless bite,
Basically are too scared themselves to fight!!!!

Because today they know that if UPA goes in comes NDA,
And this is something that they look upon with dismay.

PC has lent them his ears but has made no vaadaa (promise),
So you can easily guess his iraada (intention)???

Manmohan and PC know it is not possible to meet the Commie wish list,
Basically make India into the erstwhile USSR is the list ka gist!!!

By the way Commies are really happy with 100% FDI in the Real Estate Sector,
Money coming into their bastions is for their happiness the biggest factor.

So Commies do also love money???
But if you look at their positioning and chanting this sure sounds funny!!!

Post the results of State Elections many feuds will come out in the open,
Some new wounds will be made and some old wounds will reopen!!!

Has Sonia been misled by some in her inner coterie for the State Elections???
There have been quite a few blunders…..in strategy and in seat selections!!!

Like last minute change in strategy in Bihar showed Congress in bad light,
You do not cower in the midst of a fight!!!

Sonia wants certain sectors to be given priority in the Budget and PC has been told of Sonia's demands,
However he says that Madam should also let him know from where to get the funds to fund her commands???

But PC is working hard on the Budget……..knows the knives will be out,
There are a few so called economic whiz kids in Congress aiming to cause his rout!!!

In fact poor fellow is starved of sunlight,
Is in the FM Cabin right up to midnight!!!

Just gulps down cups and cups of coffee,
And when the taste in his mouth gets bitter sucks a sweet or toffee.

Inflation linked Bonds and a kind of VDS to mop up black money…….PC is trying to be innovative,
In fact insiders say that PC would like his efforts in this Budget to be looked upon as creative!!!

But a strengthening Rupee is bad news for exporters…….though PC would say this would curb inflation,
India's export figures are in for deflation!!!

Now Congress has taken its Goa MLAs to Mumbai to prevent BJP from poaching,
Getting jitters as the Voting day is approaching!!!

Question is can an MLA resign just like this…….what about the electorate who elected her or him,
Seems people have no say after they elect these people…..something really grim!!!

To stop all this jogger pokery MLAs and MPs should not be allowed to change Parties or resign from the people's mandate,
Otherwise how can this be construed as the people's candidate???

In Punjab there is no doubt Laloo ( denoting both the name and the adjective) Amrinder has gone overboard this time,
In the Ajnala byelection what he has done is on Democracy and people's Democratic rights a crime.

Even his own Party man Jagmeet Brar says Ajnala byelection is a blot in Punjab,
The situation was so kharaab!!!

EC has countermanded counting in Ajnala……re-election????
Well if this is not done for the voters this would mean their Democratic rights ka rejection!!!!

Because locked up in the EVMs is not the mandate of the people….but Votes of money and dandaa,
Really Amrinder has made Punjab look very gandaa!!!

Amrinder advices Badal to take sanyaas,
Say in Punjab Badals are khalaas.

Badal cannot tell Amrinder in a tit for tat way to take sanyaas,
Because he knows of Amrinder's 'bhog vilaas'.

Hulka Fulka

Dual Citizenship ….now they say Dual Citizens should also pay taxes here,
Just the thought of this will instill in them fear.

One of the ideas being looked into is fixed income tax for Dual Citizens……royalty or fee,
Though NRIs will look at this more as a kick in the knee!!!

Though IT Department would love it…..imagine going to New York to raid someone,
Would be real fun!!!!

Weekend is here………Do not let the budget blues spoil your weekend mauj mazaa,
Every year we face this sazaa.
