while my appeal might seem like another piece of flattery and it may leave hoards of congressmen jealous of me for having this brainwave ( there is no dearth of sycophants in congress who want to out do each other in pleasing you madam, you should know it better though), but i want to assure you that this appeal is truly genuine, coming from the core of my heart, sonia ji.
No, i dont want a MP ticket or a contract or a flat in Adarsh Society, Sonia ji, all i want for you is
Kabhi aana tu meri galli.
I plead you to just cross my neighbourhood once, even if you dont want to cross, will you please be kind enough to make an announcement of your plans to get here. even that will do.
You see Sonia Ji, strange things start happening the moment you announce your visit.like you see what is happening in Imphal.strange phenomenon, some aliens seems to have descended from may be another planet, who have a broom on their hands and they are sweeping the streets. this i tell you sonia ji has never happened in history of Manipur. Manipur soil has suddenly become so fertile, you have to see it to believe it, the roadside has yielded marigold flowers overnight, this I am sure would be a record whichever standards you apply, be it Italian standards or the standards that were used for commonwealth games.
so i was thinking that galli does not have a black top road and the marigold also takes to long to yield a flower. if you could just plan to visit just once.
the icing on the cake would be if you can cancel the visit at the last moment. You see, if you actually come, there there are a few hiccups though we are quite accustomed to it, like the roads being barricaded or some dirty portion of the city being closed ( out of sight is out of mind, you see) there by causing traffic snarl. But traffic is also not much of a hassle in Manipur, thanks to the eco friendly approach of our neighbouring states who do not want us to burn fossil fuels. so there is no fuel in petrol pumps. you therefore dont worry about traffic, only vehicles that you will find on the road would be lined up outside petrol pumps. the line however may stretch for kilometers, full of funny people who think just because they own a vehicle, they have right to buy patrol too. quite funny, he he . ( this is a quick tip for rahul Baba, who reached to some place in UP unannounced and he had suffer a FIFTEEN min traffic jam, can you imagine , FIFTEEEEEEEEEEN long minutes, Rahul Baba, there is no such danger here, this place is suitable for planning your unplanned visits.)
look, some more fools would differ with me. thats not something to worry about, they are just the hawkers, and road side. they keep complaining that their unlawful encroachment has been dismantled. Dont you worry about them, i can tell them that its just for a few days, wait for another 3-4 days and pay to the local authority appropriately, you will again get a chance to put up your stall. As for passing your time, you can attend the rally and add to the gathering. The more the merrier, you know Sonia ji feels so happy to see a big crowd.
that all for now sonia ji, if you finally decide to come, do let me know, you are travelling exactly in which vehicle or chopper, i can atleast wave at you, there are a number of vehicles in your cavalcade, that confuses me actually. Madamji, just one more request, if there is no weight restriction for your luggage, can you please get me 20 litres of Petrol for my Maruti 800 ( you see, my galli is quite far from rally place and i so much want to attend to your rally). yeah, just to tell you why i travel in Maruti 800, its just that bigger the car, bigger is the tax, you know there are so many taxmen in manipur. And tell you what, these taxmen are quite efficient, unlike those in your government. when they ask for payment, we must pay else they deliver justice much faster than the local court.
ok bye for now, cya in your rally.
