Perverted sense of justice…

by Sunil Rajguru in Politics

Thousands of politicians swindle crores. Get away.
But common citizens get caught for paltry financial crimes.

Millions of common citizens watch porn regularly in office. Get away.
Ministers seen watching a few minutes of porn. Resign.

So there is some “perverted” sense of justice in this world!

∙ The CMP (Common Minimum Programme) that now defines the Karnataka BJP…
Corruption. Mining. Porn.

∙ In other countries, there’s a race to gain the higher moral ground.
In India, the race between all the parties is to see who gains the lower moral ground.

∙ Overheard in UP…
Who are you voting for? The 2G scamsters, the porn stars, the statue builders or the criminal backers?

The amazing Raja-Sibal jugalbandi…

by Sunil Rajguru in Politics

∙ God created air.
The ICT industry invented the mobile.
Raja pulled Rs 1.76 lakh crore out of thin air via the mobile market.

∙ Houdini made things vanish.
Goebbels mastered propaganda.
Sibal used propaganda to make the Rs 1.76 lakh crore vanish.

∙ BJP created a telecom policy.
Raja created a telecom scam.
Since the term “telecom scam” begins with telecom, it all started with the BJP.

∙ Lessons for corporate India…
Manager created mega scam.
CEO sacked manager.
CEO is 100% clean by virtue of the “Manmohan Principle”.

∙ The corrupt politician’s slogans…
Tum mujhe ghoos do, main tumhe license doonga.
Black money is my birthright and I shall have it.
The common man’s counter-slogans…
One de Maar-tamacha.
Inquilab Jootabad.

More consolidated 2G scam musings…

by Sunil Rajguru in Politics

Hamaam main sab hai nanga,
Chahe bhrashtachaar ho ya communal danga,
Ab vote kisi ko bhi do sab “relatively” hain changa,
Ram Rajya nahin maili hai Ganga…
(Only caveat: Supreme Court se mat lo panga!)

∙ Sometimes I think of Manmohan Singh as the Dhritrashtra of Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro who must be saying in all his cabinet meetings, “Ye sab kya ho raha hai?”
One day he might as well say, “This is too much for me…” and storm off the stage…

∙ 9PM-11PM: Attack of the Clones!
Every politician/journo on every channel simultaneously.

∙ Today’s 2G scam TV debate coinage of the day:
Crony Capitalism Coalition Compulsions.

∙ 2G2G: Moving on to the Second Generation of 2G licenses.

∙ Telecom licenses have to be re-issued, policy has to be reworked…
If at first you don’t succeed TRAI TRAI TRAI again…
UPA looks like a TRAI-al and Error government…

∙ Zero Loss Theory is actually the Congress saying that they’ll have Zero Loss of Ministers no matter how many scams occur.

UPA = DOWNA.
∙ NDA = Now Dreaming (of power) Alliance.

The Five Sibalistic laws

by Sunil Rajguru in Politics

Law 1: If you are given a kickback figure, then just put the mirror negative in front of it and it will become zero loss.
For example, CAG: +1.76 lakh crore.
Counter: -1.76 lakh crore.
Net result: Zero.
Science used: Mathematics.

Law 2: If a court pulls up an office, then only the office has been pulled up, not the head of the office.

For example, if the court pulls up the PMO, then the PM is squeaky clean.
Science: Logic.

Law 3: If a court pulls up a government policy, then the policy is at fault, not the government. Hate the crime, not the criminal.
For example, if the UPA Telecom policy is pulled up, then the UPA is not at fault.
Science: Logic again.

Law 4: Every cause has an effect.
For example, Effect: UPA 2G scam. Cause: BJP Telecom Policy.
Science: Philosophy.

Law 5: The Congress Party is the custodian of India. Any criticism is blasphemy.
For example, Even giants like Google and Facebook may be banned if they defy this law.
Science: Information Technology.

Consolidated 2G scam musings….

by Sunil Rajguru in Politics

(On February 2, 2012, the Supreme Court of India cancelled 122 telecom licenses issued in 2008 in the 2G scam.)

Old saying: Chaar sau beesi karta hai?
New saying: Ek sau baeesi karta hai?

∙ It’s clear that the UPA doesn’t believe in the concept of Collective Responsibility.
That simply means that they believe in Collective Irresponsibility.

∙ Comment: Subramaniam Swamy’s Court route is much better than Anna Hazare’s activism route.
Prashant Bhushan: Main dono kara raha hu phir bhi mujhe log peet-te hai!

∙ Subramanian Swamy=Aussie pacer.
UPA=Indian batting line-up.
SC=Fast and green pitch.

∙ LK Advani: Hame aur jeene ki chahat na hoti, agar tum na hote…
(Tum=Subramanian Swamy. Key=Lok Sabha polls possible in 2012)

∙ In the beginning of 1977, the Janata Party was the No. 1 Opposition party of India.
In the beginning of 2012, the Janata Party is still the No. 1 Opposition party of India.
(Key: Its party president is Subramanian Swamy)

∙ Right now a lot of Indian citizens want to go back and quash their 2009 Lok Sabha Voting Licenses to the UPA.

∙ Zero Loss Theory becomes Zero License Practicality.

∙ 2G, or not 2G, that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer,
The Slings and Arrows of outrageous Prime Ministership,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them: to resign, to leave…

Chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo…

by Sunil Rajguru in Lyrical Atyachar, Politics

Nowadays everyone in India wants to slap or thrash someone and throw slippers and shoes at prominent people.

Here’s a theme song for the new violent India.

Please sing to the tune of the Bollywood song Pyaar baant te chalo

Ho chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo,
Hey chaanta maarte chalo, chappal phekte chalo,
Kya politician kya social activist, humri sab se hai ladai,
Ho chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo,
Hey chaanta maarte chalo, chappal phekte chalo.

Nafrat hai nayi Bharat ki kahani,
Ye buzurgon ka kehna kyun sune yaaron,
Ek hi chaanta ke kaabil hain sab,
Humko peet paat ke rehana hai yaaron,

Hai socho kal kya the, dekho ab kya ho,
Sabko le doobayenge… hai apni ye ladai,
Ho chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo,
Hey chaanta maarte chalo, chappal phekte chalo.
(La la la la la la la la la la la la la la…)

Sharad ye hai to Chiddu tum ho,
Ye hai Kejriwal to Kalmadi tum ho,
Naam kuch ho magar ye na bhoolo,
Sabse gussa ek jaisa ho.
Ho chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo,
Hey chaanta maarte chalo, chappal phekte chalo.

Ye Mumbai hai woh Delhi dekho,
Har jagah nafrat ki hai kahani,
Nafrat sadiyon se ab tak amar hai,
Aur har cheez hai aani jaani
Ho chaanta maarte chalo, joota phekte chalo,
Hey chaanta maarte chalo, chappal phekte chalo…

(Original song: Pyaar baant te chalo.
Film: Hum Sab Ustad Hain.
Year: 1965.)
