Marriage Season is upon Us !

Election Commission will announce the results of Lok Sabha elections on 16th May

And , declare open the Marriage Season

Marriages of convenience - no doubt  !

Both , NDA and UPA will fall short of absolute majority , by 50 - 100 seats

Floor Managers and Business Brokers will swing into action to weave a complex web of Mergers and Acquisitions ( M & A  )

Independent candidates will offer themselves for Rs 50 Crores

(  Remember the movie , " Dulhaa  Beekta  Hain "  ?  )

Party offices of smaller parties will carry the banners ,

"  Sale  !  Sale  !  

{  Except that this is not , a  " Going out of Business "  sale

It is a ,  " Getting into Business "   sale  !  },

We are selling honesty , integrity , honour , conscience , morals , ethics , self-respect , party-name  etc . You name it - we got it  !

Here are our going " Market Rates " :

* For 10 seat support................. 2 seats of  Minister of State

* For 20 seat support ...............  2 seats of  Cabinet Minister

* For 30 seat support ..............   Minister of Industry + Minister of Trade "

Yesterday's sworn enemies ( who wanted to dispatch you to Pakistan or jump into Indian ocean ) , will suddenly become " Bosom Friends "

" Enemy of enemy " will cease to be a friend

" Friend of a Friend " who sells-out to opposition , will become an enemy !

Like the annual ritual of the Jain Community ( Kshamapana ), saleable Dulhaas , will beg  Kshamaa ( forgiveness )  of everyone they abused during the past one year

They are chanting :

*  Let us forget the insults and forgive each other

*  Let us not be vindictive and let loose the " Caged Parrot " / ED  etc

*  Let us work as a team to quadruple our assets ala Jamaai-Raja

*  Let us reward the people who voted us to power , with "Broken Promises"

*  Let the  "  Winter-of-Conflict "  be over on 12th May

*  Let the  " Summer -of - Swindle "  begin on 16th May

PEOPLE  OF  INDIA ,

Is it any surprise that the " Greatest Circus on the Earth " is followed by the " Weirdest  Horse-trading on the Earth "  ?

And even if you don't like horses , don't insult other animals such as Dogs , Monkeys , Rats , Elephants etc , by naming this trade after them  !

You are damned if you vote : damned if you don't  !
