Aaj Ki Aawaz

Rahul should have avoided making the ‘ NSG comment’ he made!!!
Now for trying to bring regionalism into NSG this statement is being flayed!!
 
Both Sena and MNS pride on being patriotic but what they pratice is not patriotism!
Because Balsahib and Raj's patriotism is afflicted with ‘regional autism’!!
 
They mind it if one says 'I'm an Indian first and then a Maharashtrain'!!
That is why I say Balasahib and Raj's attitude is not patrtiotic or 'rashtrain'??
 
They both are fighting tooth and nail for the Marathi votes for the MC poll!!
In their own demand ‘for one India when it comes to J&K’ they are making a hole!
 
On Sharukh Khan …… I’m agree with SS and MNS demand ‘no Pakis and Aussies in IPL’!
And I’m sure many Indians are on the same page…. Indian Patriotic League or IPL!!
 
Put PC under a lie detector test and the truth will come out!!
Inside he too wants the Pakis and Aussies should be from the IPL ‘out’!!
 
He’s just being PC…as FM he tacitly helped the stock markets and business interests!!
As HM he feels to keep the Muslim vote bank happy the responsibility on him rests!
 
That’s a beauty….. Congress telling Amar ‘it’s not a wastepaper bin’!!!!
Means Amar is the waste and Congress is not a bin into which Amar can be thrown in!!
 
After not making headway with Maya too Amar is in a mood to ‘go on his own’!!!
As a Backward cum Rajput Neta he wants to be known!!
 
He has the money to do so but I think politically he's ' not going to matter'!!!
From now on he’ll no longer ‘politically stomp around’ but instead he’ll pitter-patter!
 
Of course he’ll continue his blackmailing for his flesh ka pound!!!
And more and more in Bollywood he’s going to be found!!
 
Like I’ve said he may make a reveal all movie starring his Bhaand Mandali or Gang!!!
Aimed at creating in political circles a ‘big bang’!!
 
Now insiders say Amar has kept a major chunk of SP money!!!!
‘He’ll say its severance pay’ … Mulayam and his sonny will not find this funny???
 
Though Foodie cum Political ‘expert’ Vir Singhvi said ‘Amar will bounce back’!!
I feel Amar's political relevance will fall after SP se his sack!!!
 
In the Forum on Whispers many have commented who the Queen will make PM!!!
Is Mohna going ….because she cannot get a better GM???
 
Just take Narsimha Rao's naam in front of Sonia and 'her hair gets upset'(stands up)!
She has to call her hairdresser and hair the hairdresser has to reset!!
 
What if the Queen decides she should ‘become the King’???
Back into the arena her being a foreigner BJP will bring!!!
   
I feel she’s a ‘smart gal’ and will not do something that will cause a hue and cry!
Already once to become King kiya tha Sonia ne try!!!
 
Though she must be goading Rahul 'takeover quick!!!
Adding.....and a bride when are you going to pick??? 
 
Prices continue their upward journey and I wonder why is Mohna quite???
In India price rises have caused immense disquiet!!!!
 
Mohna and Sonia’s silence is indeed disturbing!!!
In fact immensely perturbing!!
 
Sometimes Congress Spokesmen say ‘international prices are the cause for price rise’,
And sometimes Farmers are benefiting… sheer lies!!!
 
Those in the know will tell you had Pawar been true to his job!!!!
Situation would not have gone so bad that inflation would make even the Middleclass sob!
 
And BJP’s ‘empty’ price rise boos have got Public rankled!!!
With its internal woes BJP is shackled!!
 
Ghadkari has still not got accustomed to his new post!!!
At present he’s still in mode ‘boast’!!!
 
Confucius says…. Jahaa daal daal parr crooked Netas, Dalals, hoarders, cheats karte hai basera!!!
Abh yeh bann gaya hai Bharat Desh mera!!! 

Bharat Kumar

JAI HO.
We all should support Raj Thackeray and take his initiative ahead by doing more...

1. We should teach our kids that if he is second in class, not to study harder.. just beat up the student coming first and throw him out of the school.

2. Parliament should have only Delhiites as it is located in Delhi .

3. Prime-minister, president and all other leaders should only be from Delhi .

4. No Hindi movie should be made in Bombay . Only Marathi. Bollywood must shift near Kashi Vidyapeeth ( B H U).

5. At every state border, buses, trains, flights should be stopped and staff changed to local men.

6. All Maharashtrians working abroad or in other states should be sent back as they are SNATCHING employment from Locals.

7. Lord Shiv, Ganapati  and Parvati should not be worshiped in our state as they belong to north ( Himalayas ).

8. Visits to Taj Mahal should be restricted to people holding UP passport only.

9.  Relief for farmers in Maharashtra should not come from centre because that is the money collected as Tax from whole of India, so why should it be given to someone in Maharashtra ?

10. Let's support Kashmiri Militants because they are right in killing and injuring innocent people for benefit of their state and community......

11. Let's throw all MNCs out of Maharashtra . Why should they earn from us? We will open our own Maharashtra Mi karo soft, MH Pep see, Peru-Juice, Jhunka-Bhaakari, and MH Marutees of the world.

12. Let's stop using cell phones, emails, TV, foreign Movies and dramas unless James Bond   speaks Marathi.
 
13. Lata-Ayee and Asha- Tai must be thrown out of Bomb Aye ( very sorry : Amchee - Mumbai): they have earned more money singing other-languages songs.

13. We should be ready to die hungry or buy food at 10 times higher price but should not accept imports from other states.

14. We should not allow any industry to be setup in Maharashtra because all machinery comes from outside

15. We should STOP using local trains... Trains are not manufactured by Marathi manoos (people)

16. Ensure that all our children are born, grow, live and die without ever stepping out of Maharashtra , then they will become true Marathi's.

This mail should somehow reach Raj Thackrey. So forward it to as many people as possible (PARKING AT OWNERS RISK)
JAI HO!

Raha was a man of great qualities

Subir Raha former CMD ONGC was a man blessed with exceptional human qualities ie. excellent memory. dissemination of facts with lightening speed and making quick decision of high quality. His biggest contribution as CMD ONGC was to give a recognition to ONGC and make every ONGCian to feel proud to be a member of ONGC. He had known for his managerial qualities not only in India but internationally. In the history of ONGC the CEO of GE visited ONGC corportate Office Delhi during his tenure. Our heartfelt tribute to such a tall personality.
D S Bhandari
Subir Raha-Ul Vida

An ordinary person, who achieved extra-ordinary heights as the CMD of ONGC.A stern disciplinarian, who never backed out on his words in extending personal help. I last met him during his illness on his return from Mumbai to Delhi. He was a lonely person during his last days, much misunderstood. The GOI was most unfair to him by unilaterally terminating his appointment prematurely without conducting the mandatory Joint Appraisal of his performance through the PESB.I shall miss his warm hug.

Amar will not look for parties in South

This is not looking like a proper comment because of the reason that Amar Singh is a leader of North and he will not look out for regional parties in south

Country needs women in all walks of life

All the girls who have joined the CRPF deserve a standing ovation from us. The country needs women in all walks of life-moreso in strategic positions/policy making and sectors so far reserved for men.
Instead of grudging the maternity leave why can men not share the nurturing responsibility and demand maternity/parenting leave! That could be a step towards making society more civilised and equal.

Serious Family Problems

Two men, one American and an Indian were sitting in a bar drinking
shot after shot.

The Indian man said to the American, "You know my parents are forcing
me to get married to this so called homely girl from a village whom I
haven't even met once.

We call this arranged marriage. I don't want to marry a woman whom I
don't love...I told them that openly and now have a hell lot of family
problems."

The American said, "Talking about love marriages... I'll tell you my story.

I married a widow whom I deeply loved and dated for 3 years.

"After a couple of years, my father fell in love with my step-daughter
and so my father became my son-in-law and I became my father's
father-in-law.

My daughter is my mother and my wife my grandmother.

More problems occurred when I had a son. My son is my father's brother
and so he is my uncle. Situations turned worse when my father had a
son. Now my father's son i.e. my brother is my grandson.

Ultimately, I have become my own grand father and I am my own grandson.

And you say you have family problems...
