Modi and the Gujarat Model…

To counter the Gujarat Model, economists are combining the best of secular states like Bihar, Uttarakhand, Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
It will be called the BUDHU Model for short.

Modi is campaign chief and…
Pappu: Don’t want to be PM.
Nitish: Struggling to be CM.
Akhilesh: Just struggling.
Andhra: Does it even have a CM?

Life on the edge!
Take a taxi driven by a Bihari to Aditi Restaurant. Once there, praise Modi and demand that Mumbai separate from Maharashtra!

texture-1655298_640Q: Is it bad luck if you walk on the cracks on the pavement.
A: It doesn’t make any difference. But people think you’re an idiot if you walk in a funny manner trying to avoid all those cracks. That may eventually bring bad luck in some form.

Q: Does a rabbit’s foot bring good luck?
A: It’s pretty bad luck and a cruel thing to do it the rabbit is still alive and hopping on one leg somewhere. Plus, do you keep dead human pieces about you? How is the life of a rabbit different from that of a human being from the point of view of Mother Nature? The truth is that all humans are extremely bad luck for all animals.

What if?
2014: Modi becomes PM and proves effective.
2019: Anti-incumbency renders Pappu PM. Gets 5 years to play with his new toy: India.

Pappu wanted to email a particular spokesperson that he was designated.
He clicked Reply All by mistake and that’s why they are all speaking together.
Pappu stopped using email after that.No ministry of any kind at the State or Centre.

Straight away PM: Nehru, Rajiv and Chandra Shekhar.
Pappu is on the right track.

Dear Pappu,
