April 2012 Status Updates

∙ The Indian Judicial system solved the Rs 1 Lakh bribe issue @Rs 25 a day.
That’s why it took 11 years.
At this rate other multi-crore scams may not be solved till even Judgement Day.

∙ At this rate Mamata will ban even red paint from West Bengal.

(April 28)

∙ After AMS, all dirty pictures were banned on TV. Poor The Dirty Picture just got caught in the crossfire.

(April 24)

∙ Common man’s shot at politics: Around 150 Lok Sabha MPs are chargesheeted. Around 150 are from a dynasty. Around 120 are from reserved quota.

∙ The Trinamool isn’t showing any mamata to the people of West Bengal.
SP is still being mulayam towards the criminals of UP.

Mamata as the Establishment is also sadly anti-establishment.

(April 17)

∙ Indian politics today:
The Centre’s at the periphery.
Nothing’s right with the Left.
Nothing’s left with the Right.
Regional players are plain parochial.
The Voter’s in Hot Water.

Zara deri ho gayi. Kash amir dil se aap kuch 26/11 pe action lete.
(Plus: It’s Indo-Pak tourism more than Indo-Pak talks)

∙ The detractors will now have to SIT down.
After 10 years, Godhra has been Modified.

∙ So the Republicans zero in on Mitt Romnahin.

∙ In 2012, the world may well end for things like UPA governance, low prices and Republican Presidential aspirations.

∙ Asking for privacy in social networking is like asking for a burqa for “Face”book.

(April 11)

∙ 0G=Motilal/Jawaharlal (No Gandhi surname).
1G=Indira Gandhi.
2G=Sanjay, Rajiv, Sonia.
3G=Rahul-Priyanka.
Dynasty bhi abhi 2G pe hi atka hua hai!

∙ Agatha Christie wrote And Then There Were None.
Manmohan Singh is also writing And Then There Were None where None=Clean ministers in his Cabinet.

∙ Like the Terminator, BSY keeps saying “I’ll be back”.
Like the Terminator, BSY is bent on terminating the BJP in Karnataka.

∙ In terms of generations of corruption, India must be at 10G, I guess.

∙ Say coup twice: CoupCoups.
Yes you’ve gone Cuckoos if you think it can happen in India.

∙ Corruption ka ghada bhar gaya, overflow hua aur toot bhi gaya. Indian politicians ne doosre Maha ghade ka intezaam kiya hai.
