Mahatma Gandhi named his autobiography ,
" My Experiments
with Truth "
If some of our politicians were to author their own
biography ( - even if actually written by ghost writers ) , what would they name
it ?
Here is my guess
:
> Man Mohan
Singh............... In Search of
Silence
> Sonia
Gandhi.................... The Guns
are Booming
> Robert Vadra
( Kin-politico ).. From landless to
landlord in 40 days
> Suresh
Kalmadi................... The Game
Theory
> Pawan
Bansal .................... Toofaan Mail
> Shriprakash
Jaiswal............. The Dark Matter
Underground
> Ashwini
Kumar.................... Superior to
Supreme
> Kapil
Sibal.......................... Two-timing
Lawyer
> P
Chidambaram.................. Re-Count
to Re-Instate
> Kamal Nath
...................... A Road Less
Travelled
> Prafulla
Patel..................... Gone with
the Wind
> A
Raja.............................
Last Come , First Served
> Dayanidhi
Maran................. Quid- pro- Quo
>
Kanimozi...........................
Father Knows Best
>
Jayalalithaa........................
Heaven - for those who touch my feet
> Mamta
Banerjee................ The Triumph
of the Lawless
> Narendra
Modi..................... Gujarat - that is India
> Arvind
Kejriwal.................... AK-49 and lesser Weapons
> Mayawati...................... Maya and Maya-Jaal
> Mayawati...................... Maya and Maya-Jaal
Feel free to add to the list
In case they decide to come out with their biographies
, one thing is certain
Royalty percentage will need to be the same - or more -
than the percentages that they are used to get so far !
And , the branding rights will be sold separately !
What with the way current Lok Sabha elections are going
, most of these Netas will have plenty of time on hand to pen their
travails !
