RAINING TABLETS AND LAPTOPS

It all started with Jayalalitha promising free laptops to students of Tamil Nadu , if they would vote her to power

They did

Now she is busy distributing a million laptops to students – every year

For politicians all over India , this was an eye-opener !

They were quick to realize that it was no more ,

  • Roti , Kapada , Makan

  • Sadak , Pani , Bijlee

To win elections , they must promise ,

  • Tablets and Laptops

Next to adopt this new-age mantra , were

  • Akhilesh Yadav ( Uttar Pradesh )

  • Prakash Singh Badal ( Punjab )

Lo and Behold !

They too got elected to power !

Only yesterday, Rajasthan Chief Minister Gehlot came out with a promise to distribute free laptops to all students passing 10th or 12th standard

And believe me , in a matter of weeks , Modi ( Gujarat ) and Gowda / Yeddy ( Karnataka ) will make similar announcements

Not to be left out , expect Rahul Gandhi to promise , to every single Indian voter ( approx 400 millions ),

·     a Laptop and a Tablet and a Smart phone

if voted to power in 2014 national elections

And, all imported from EuroZone !

Soon India will become the most YouTube-savvy nation in the world !

What does it matter that , due to mal-nutrition , some 2,348 children die in India , every day !

With regards

HEMEN  PAREKH
