The Ghost of Election Alliances Past

The Ghost of Election Alliances Past

BY Basu Ka Bakwas

So after much cold, fog, inflated prices the Delhites are at least saved from the vagaries of a presidential rule followed by another round of elections. Surely no one will like to be bogged down  by another round of constant campaigning through loud speakers, rallies and door to door .This time around it would have been In the damp highly opaque December ,January weather. No human should be exposed to such hardship least of all our elected representatives what of the fact that a fractured mandate is also a mandate. It means that not enough are convinced, but hey policy paralysis so mundane a disease among the elected it is still better than pneumonia. Hence our broom wielding messiah is kissing and making up and getting crowned with the very Entity opposition of which got him the votes. We are all expected to suffer selective amnesia and play along for the getter good.

Mandate fractured or whatever still better than re-elections perhaps sans the candidates who have already lost. Fractured Mandates the base ingredient of rather mutually antagonistic elements coming together with or without conditions inside or outside support alliances. In spite of all the hullo bullo of a new age democracy isn’t this a déjà vu moment. Feels like the late 90s a motley group of regional parties ride a strong anti congress wave and form govt at the centre with the same Congresses providing outside support. Sounds familiar no perhaps we could have asked the 12^th Prime Minister of India of the United Front Govt Mr. I K Gujral sadly he is no longer there. Oh now now all is fair in love and fight against communal forces even allying with corrupt forces.

 “King of shard and patches” as against that of a Leader of the masses .All the hype about Shiela been trounced by a underdog effectively shadowed the petty detail that AAP won 28 out of seventy seats. The rest roughly sixty percent of Delhites thought that the Jharoo will brush as much as a certain lantern brought light in a place called Bihar. There was a referendum via electronic social media poor lefties they depended on the old method of   Rallies, meetings conventions before deciding to prop congress at the centre you can forgive them there was no internet then.

Least but not the last we must leave an honorable mention of every  past messiahs who were successful I trouncing congress from their local strongholds the lefties In West Bengal ,Kerala the Yadas of Bihar and UP.Our leader just joined their august or now probably autumn company. They too had conditions to support when just short of the mark at their time they were the new wave In democracy .We don’t see them so invincible now compared to the nineties aah the people grew dissilusioised.To early to say or is it. 

Hang The Lingerie Mannequin: Basu Ka Bakwas

There have been off late various brilliant solutions to the growing cases of violence against women. So brilliant e.g. calling the prospective rapist bhaiya, Gayatri Mantra etc that I had nothing clever to say. Until our Mumbai Corporation comes with this astounding dazzling blinding brilliant plan to ban Lingerie Mannequins true I can only come up with such lame idiotic  ideas as stricter harsher punishment, more policeman ,faster trails and conviction. All applause Madam Corp orator from Ghatkopar her brilliant hypothesis if you look at Mannequins in skimpy two pieces you will be provoked to rape. Sadly there are no noble prize in psychology she truly deserves one .How did she came to such brilliant conjuncture? I wonder are we men in general always get provoked by lingerie or it was in the aide of her male affiliates /associates who develop urges to violate at the sight of a lingerie. Please release all violent sex crime offenders even those with victims too young or old too fit into a lingerie they were all decent honest bloke until ruthlessly provoked by the Lingerie Mannequin .We do have the support of many Bombay men and women municipal cooperators all elected by the very  wise citizens of Mumbai. Ban no hang the Mannequin with the vile piece of provocative clothing .He does not belong to any class community or group with feelings to hurt he has no feelings to begin with just wood or plastic. No polarization no nothing hang a mannequin why spend tax Money on police, public safeguards etc.As for the lingerie the ideal invitation of a private fantasy in our taboo infested society you will be embraced enough to discuss let alone admit to have ever used or seen someone in that evil twopiece.Suggesting that ultimately women are to blame for being women to be endowed with organs necessary for procreation that their sexuality and physique does nothing but promote violence is so true. They are to be dewomanised covered without any slight trace of their woman-ness escaping least it provokes us males.

Our Madam Corporator is horrified at the sight of the horrifying thing and here I thought if we Males are so vastly degenerate that our lustful minds with rather lewdly fertile minds feel provoked at a sight of a plastic dummy in underwear that could be horrifying. Oh such devious devilish thoughts that creep into our innocent minds when we undress plastic in the due course of our saleing them .Being of the Sales fraternity I thought the right to advertise is intrinsic to the right to sale which is within to the best of my belief the right to be employed and livelihood it was always the customers prerogative sex sales we all know that just trying to bring in the bread here. Then again maybe we are all culprits nobody is trivializing the real issue of insufficient protection of women from plain physical violence with causing pain, humiliation as the motive. The perpetrators never had to get their ego satisfied by dominating through violence they were simply provoked by the Mannequin   in lingerie.

Ah such wise corporators ladies and gentleman  all the ladies who might feel threatened for just being born of a wrong sex and all gentlemen born of a even more wrong easily underwear provoked mind our futures are definitely safe.
