Kahani Humari Mahabharat Ki!

vote of confidence motion pm speech

We all vote for these people. These people who go on to form the so called Government. This Government runs our huge nation. We are also the ones who hate the very Government which was formed because of our votes. The Government functions in a funny manner. Then there’s this thing called the Opposition. These are people who’re supposed to object at anything the Government says or does. Then there’s this thing called the Left. They really hate anything non-Indian. They would object if they find toilet paper instead of water at the Lok Sabha loo. So when the Government decides to sign up a Nuke deal with the United States of America, the Left opposes to it. Why? They’re Anti-Americans, don’t you get it?! The Government feels it’s been taken for granted by the Left for a long time and decide to go with the deal. The Left isn’t happy with it. Obviously they choose to withdraw their support to the Government. The opposition wakes up and suddenly smells an opportunity.

So the stage is set for the Mahabharat. Mind you this isn’t anything new at the Lok Sabha. It’s rare that a day passes without one. This time the Mahabharat is fought between the UPA i.e the Government, it’s supporters and the BJP, it’s supporters along with the Left party joining forces against the UPA to topple the Government.

The Mahabharat begins….

vote of confidence bribe issue video phots

The day begins with usual the usual drama. Suddenly BJP MPs claim they’ve been bribed to absent themselves from the vote of confidence session. They seem to have happily accepted the bribe. They then bought it to the Lok Sabha and happily showed off the moolah to the rest of the MPs, teasing them with full glory. L.K Advani felt 9 Crores, the sum offered to the MPs, was way too much. So they decide to make an issue out of it. They shout. They made a hell of noise. They got tired and sat down. They didn’t have the energy to get up or speak out for the rest of the session. Damn! One good point to bomb the day and even that didn’t work for them. Good idea Advani ji!

Meanwhile, not very far away, an MP from Phulpur claimed he went nuts trying to understand the Nuke Deal. So he decided to vote against it. This is the same thing I try to explain to the examiner each time. If I can’t understand what Fourier is, I should probably have the right to vote against it!

What followed was a lot of heated arguments. Demands were raised for PM’s resignation. I bet some of the MPs even cried for their peice of the Rs. 9 Crore chocolate pie! People loved to see the great Indian Political Mahabharat live on TV! They should go for commercials in-between the sessions. Cheer leaders and other entertainment must be made a part of the Lok Sabha proceedings. I bet Doordarshan will make a great deal of moolah out of it, for once.

PM Manmohan Singh thrashed Advani with this:

All I can say is that before leveling charges of incompetence on others, Shri Advani should do some introspection. Can our nation forgive a Home Minister who slept when the terrorists were knocking at the doors of our Parliament? Can our nation forgive a person who single handedly provided the inspiration for the destruction of the Babri Masjid with all the terrible consequences that followed? To atone for his sins, he suddenly decided to visit Pakistan and there he discovered new virtues in Mr. Jinnah. Alas, his own party and his mentors in the RSS disowned him on this issue. Can our nation approve the conduct of a Home Minister who was sleeping while Gujarat was burning leading to the loss of thousands of innocent lives? Our friends in the Left Front should ponder over the company they are forced to keep because of miscalculations by their General Secretary.

The votes were in and the winner was clear. The UPA managed to pull it off with a cool attitude. You should have seen LK Advani’s face. The Left has been shown the door politely. It’s a tight slap on their face. Something the UPA should have done a long time ago. Another hell of a political war or the Mahabharat as everyone called it in the history of the Great Indian Democracy.

This won’t change anything. We’ll still be the same. The Government will still be the same. We’ll still read the papers and curse the Mantris each passing day.

One Helluva Entertaining day !! Thats how i describe 22 July ,08 – The follow up , the Drama , the suspense , The Climax, …. Ekta Kapoor & Mr. Karan Gay Johar , watch it , this is What i expect in a movie & on my TV screen : wholesome Entertainment !
A day Before , I was in support of Dr. Manmohan Singh , n his deal. I , an adult teenager , very much a part of today’s ‘wired generation’ (or wireless ) need electricity to run my PC , charge my cellphone ,listen to music … Even if Bush wants to put a spy satellite for each n every city of India , give in , but Please get RID of the freakin Power Cuts (although google earth has already let the world know where India hides its fighter jets , n how many entry and exit points exist to RAshprapatni Bhavan !)

Then comes Mr. Advani , n somewhr in the middle of “F$#k u COngress” & “Manmohan, u sonia’s puppet ” , i hear this –
” Why don’t you tell them that the nuclear deal will only provide an additional 3% of the total power need of the Country … from current 3% to 6% . Why are you inspiring false hopes among the citizens of electricity in each n every home . Why …”

What the F%^k [:O] ! What if i am not in the increased 3% .. What if they pass a new quota stating the newly acquired Electricity wud be given to the SCs & STs only .Damn u liars !

The D-Day : Lalu rocks ! i love this guy .He provides the nation with a supercool Railway budget , Cuts down on Student Tickets , and still manages to add a few thousand crores to the national treasure .N his speeches , nobody can do a lalu bttr than lalu himself ! After a thoroughly entertaining speech , The anti – climax : 3 BJP MPs start a shameful display of the national currency , bundled into huge bundles ,stating the UPA tried to bribe them to abstain from voting . Hmmm, so that guy on the Hindi channel was right, The Banks have Run outta 1000-rupee notes , as all of the stock’s out of accounts & passing hands right now.

Other MPs ,particularly BJP ones , can’t listen , they have gone Deaf…wait,they are drooling .FreakINg ONE WHOLE crore in cash, right there in front of them ! WHy the f%^k did they join BJP , even if they did , why the f**k were they so loyal , that the UPA never offered them this booty ! They look @ the 3 MPs in awe & envy, enjoy the limelight ,u asses , we know u three have 20 more crores stashed safely in a Swiss Bank Account !

IN the end , the Cash flooding pays off . Singh remains the King (or rather ,the pseudo King , the ‘Queen’ rules the game ,remember!) A thousand allegations thrown,A mockery OF democracy made, The country’s chosen few display Bundles of cash , when @ 11.8% inflation,the man on the street can’t fish out a penny to buy his family a meal , All said & done , But barring a few newspaper headlines , nothing will change . All of us wud be interested in this one ,until harry comes up with an even more interesting topic……. which he always does …

    Mr Pratik the Congress paid BJP MPs to absent themselves. To others they promised something or the other. This UPA government is so corrupt. The Left is correct for opposing this deal.

    People nuclear deal is not good for India. I am a true Indian! I support Left!

    This thing on ‘toilet papers’ is outrageous!

  • http://rediff.com Pratyush

    Ritika how correct is the Left was proved today. The Left is nothing but a bunch of losers with lack of retirement plans. They seemed to have made it a habit to bend the Government at every damn occasion. Manmohan Singh has finally stood up for once and proved that the UPA will not take their nonsense any further. Congrats to the UPA!

    PS: I’m not a Congress, UPA, BJP, Left supporter. I hate them all equally.

    A brilliant article (probably better than the ones in the newspapers :D ).
    I loved the speech of Manmohan Singh Ji. I doubt that even 10% of the MPs new about what was in the Nuke Deal :D .

    Anyhow, nice to see that government is not changing at the moment. Agree that “The Government will still be the same. We’ll still read the papers and curse the Mantris each passing day.”

    Long live India !

  • Ankur

    Well, Certainly a very entertaining read, and Pratik (a.k.a Nikku) comes up with a nice little follow up.

    Agreeing with pratyush, even i’m not a party person.. i dont care whoever is in control… its just a matter of which one is less corrupt and cares for the country a notch more than the other.

    The left as i see, has nothing to do but oppose everything the current govt is at. Had the govt changed right now, we would see the BJP taking credit for decreasing the inflation rate which’ll comedown in the next few months due to the measuers taken by the current govt! politics is all a blame game!! and the thing was pretty interesting yesterday, Lok Sabha TV could have made a lot of money fr sure, Pepsi,Vodafone and the lot could have come up and sponsored the broadcast!! then we would see the vodafone cartoons come up n jump around everytime an MP gave a speech!

  • Pratik

    @ Ms. Ritika : Without doubting your “true patriotism” , lemme ask you if you have a fair idea about the Nuclear Deal ,& the reason LEFT disowned it . As per my knowledge , no other political party in INDIA , has gone all out to malign UPA’s attempt to make this deal, or found any fault in the deal itself . Even China, Left’s Godfather, is a part of the nuke deal with USA . THen Why does Mr. Karat go crazy hearing anything starting with “america” ??

    @ Ankur : Thanx man , n here ‘s some more entertainment
    LaLu Yadav @ his best ——

    “Every1 wants to be a PM , Mulayam Singh ,L K Advani , Even Lalu Prasad Yadav . But I am in No hurry [:P] ”

    (Taking a dig at the Left )
    ” Tum Agar mujhko naa chaho toh koi baat nai ,
    Tum kissi aur ko chahoge toh mushkil hogi “

  • Ritika

    China took major time to go through everything. The Congress just wants to hush matters up so they can sign the deal before their tenure is over for all the big Bushy commissions that they might receive!

    I don’t know anything about deal so avoiding comment on deal but both UPA and NDA try to buy each others members for sure
