Yeh maara.....

In 2014 I had predicted that help from enemies would be sought!!
By the anti Modi lot!!

To hit out at Modi help from even Pak has been sought!!
For Modi's removal asking for help from Pak Aiyer was caught!!

And today you get to see it being done khullam khulla!!
In the forefront is Kejri (Kejriwal) aka Mr Hulla!!!

He's tweeted that post Uri it's India that's being isolated! !
Whereas it's Pak that's totally desolated!!

Kejri's anti Modi because uss ki marzi nahi chalti! !
Aur yeh baat Kejri ko bahut hai khalti! !

He feels his clean chit should close any case!!
If Judges are Your Honor he should be Your Grace!!

Like Kejri says...Satyendra Jain's clean chit is mine!!
'I've seen the files and all is fine'!!

Buss as per Kejri the case should be closed there and then!
Max he's willing to do is count upto 10!!

If still case is not closed its blasphemy of worst kind!!
And then first Kejri uses language that's unkind!!

Then 'the offender' is placed in the attack 24x7 bracket!!
At anything the offender says or does AAP lot create a racket!!

Many say had UPA been in power Kejri would have got his way!!
Mutual back scratching as in politics they say!

Mutual back scratching is not Modi's game!!!
He believes in ...name blame and shame!!

Modi just called for a presentation on the Indus Accord!!
And hullabaloo by those now enjoined with Pak by anti Modi umbilical chord!

Again hatred for Modi at play!!
Anything howsoever pro India Modi does the anti Modi lot will flay!!

The MFN tag for Pak now means ..Most Faltu Nation!!
A Nation where Terror is the main vocation!!

SAARC... chulloo bhar paani mein Pak should drown!!!
Out of 8 Nations 4 have given Pak thumbs down!!

Confucious says .... Pungaa lehne ke pehle apni haisiyat dekho!!
False bravado pe matt behko!!!!

Flash. ..DGMO confirms surgical strikes LOC ke across!!!
On his To Do List one yeh job kiya Modi ne cross!!

Terror manpower and infra were attacked!!
A decisive knockout punch our Fauj packed!!

Project Pak Isolation is also in the works!!
When it comes to a pledge Modi never shirks!!

DEBATE (1)
Although, the former Governor, RBI is not a politician, the tall and lanky Dr. Raghuram RAJAN tops my list of best dressed banker/bureaucrat in India. Madam Sonia Gandhi with her simple cotton Saree and slim look is the best dressed women politician. I would rate Shashi Taroor as the best dressed compared to Narendra Modi.

Several patriotic IAS officers willing to work in GoI under PM Modi
Who says that officers are not liking to work in Government of India. Several patriotic IAS officers have been waiting to work in Government of India under PM Modi. Let the GoI use their powers to draft out such interested AIS officers from the states. They are not doing it. For all the purposes they are AIS officers but abandoned at the mercy of the state. GoI you pull your strings and show teeth.

Such derisive comments only made by Nehruvian secularists
Such derisive comments have been made by Nehruvian secularists about Hindutva and cow slaughter. Cows do have its connection with Sri Krishna in Hindu mythology. But that is not the only reason for many villagers to form cow rakshak groups who are drawn not only from BJP but also from other political parties like Congress and JD(S).Cows and cattle were and still are the back bone of our villages since they depend on them for tilling the land. milk, cooking(ghee), butter, dahi, butter milk, preparing sweet meets; its dung as cement and even its urine as medicine. The scenario has not changed in many places even after 7 decades of independence. They call them Kamadhenu. No wonder villagers enmasse hate killing them. Another reason is during drought time villagers are tempted to sell them by butchers who offer them big money. When the next season set in they will not have any cattle. No wonder Gandhi advocated a total ban on cow slaughter. Why Congress party who claims to be ideological inheritor's of Gandhi and who clamour for prohibition does not bother about another of Gandhi's advice on cow slaughter ?
