Parivartan ki Aandhi

The Parivartan ki Aandhi (roughly, the storm of change!), Soniyaji Gandhiji will be visiting our noisy yet busy city and the big placards of sycophancy are already up on many junctions covering signals and digging roads and blocking traffic view.

Sonia, why do you want to bring parivartan (change) to our city? We are living peacefully and could have lived without the shameless display of all the bootlicking. We could have lived without more desecration to our already rough roads, we could have lived without the bandobast (police blockade of roads for security), and your-visit induced traffic problems. Just what parivartan do you intend to bring by visiting our city?

And is your visit paid by the INC? If yes, are we going to pay the fringe benefit tax? Oh wait, we are not...because your smart finance minister has exempted the political parties from this tax - so much for creating an environment that will be conducive to business.

To all the party-workers: The Ramdas Athavale placard at the beginning of the Bund Garden Bridge is bigger than any of the placards you have erected for Soniyaji yet...are you guys sleeping?
