These versions by Sunil Rajguru

Yet another round of Modi musings…

The biggest Opposition to the Congress has been the Congress.
The biggest Opposition to Narendra Modi is the BJP.

The Modi Industry…
Stage 1: Fame.
Stage 2: Fortune.
Stage 3: Industry Status.
Stage 4: Very own political party.

The AAP media marriage…
Stage 1: Honeymoon.
Stage 2: Marital fights.
Stage 3: Divorce.
(When it comes to Modi-media, it looks like the reverse)

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and finally they scramble to be your ally partner.

The AAP dictionary…

Aaptopia: An imaginary island where everything in the AAP has reached absolute perfection whereas the rest of the world is 100% imperfect.

Aapocracy: A form of democracy which favours rule-breaking, vigilantism, dharnas and violent attacks on rivals.

Aaponomics: Oppose FDI, increase subsidies, threaten power companies, run down industrialists… anything to get in the news the economy be damned.

Aapolitics: A form of politics if the ruling government is corrupt, inept and venal, then support should be taken from the ruling party in order to attack the Opposition.

Aapinion polls: If the verdict of the aam aadmi suits you, follow it. If it doesn’t, then do what the hell you want.

Aaptard: The new Namotard, more brain-dead and more potent.

Aapportunism: The philosophy by which the party will grab whatever opportunity comes along their path no matter whether it suits their ideology or not.

Aappearances: As long as you are appearing on media on a regular basis, absolutely nothing else matters.

Aapper Class: Members of this class pretend to be Aam Aadmis but are actually Khaas Aadmis.

These versions by Sunil Rajguru

Kejriwal the Aam Politician…

The A to Z of Arvind Kejriwal…
A: Aam Aadmi is what I am, plain and simple.

Dharna.
Lies.
Stone pelting.

Indian politician: Sob! He is finally one of us!
#Kejri

1970s: Imagine George Fernandes getting arrested and blaming and attacking Morarji Desai non-stop instead of Indira Gandhi.
2014: Fernandes=Kejri. Morarji=Modi. Indira=Sonia.

We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.
—TS Eliot.
What a fool! I just take one U-turn and I am back where I started and I pretend to know the place for the first time.
—Arvind Kejriwal.
