Guest guest Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Good thoughts Dr Shah.  Temporary insanity..the election time in India is a complete circus, or then may be the Indian parliament is a circus whole year around, in session or not..  Balvinder 87 Balvinder Rana Subject: Pink Elephants To: Undisclosed-Recipient@... Date: Tuesday, 10 January, 2012, 5:26 PM  Pink Elephants Yes! If you see pink elephants, you are not in an alcohol induced UP, but rather, you are most probably in the state called UP in India. The Election Commissioner has deemed that the elephants in UP should be covered with pink cloth for the elections, probably to show that the state is in the pink of health. The order applies to Miss Mayawati's statues too! In protest the politicians have said that the statues were erected just for beautification. The EC is doing the cover-up probably for the same reason! This, of course, is patently unfair of the EC. I mean, if elephants, as election symbols, need to be covered, then what about our Railway engine? We will need to close down the rail services until the elections are over. But wait! You cannot travel by car, bus or even a cycle because all of them are election symbols. So while you are out ordering large swathes of cloth to cover your TV, which is also an election symbol, don't forget to cover your garden pond, which has some floating lotus flowers. But don't do it at night, because you would need a lantern or an electric bulb which need to be covered up again. But most importantly, do all this with gloves, because after all the hand is an election symbol and needs to be covered up nicely. Don't worry! All this is only temporarily, just until election time is over. But wait! How will we tell the time, if the clocks are all covered up?

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 A lot of stupidity is unduly attached to Mayawati. Her actions are unnecessarily scrutinised with so much public interest. The whole nation laughed at her when she had those concrete elephants erected at public places. Her motives are always considered suspect. Bechari Behan Kunwari Mayawati! She is blamed for her fetish for elephants. I want to scream at all the cynics and tell them Mayawati is not what they think she is. Early in life, she became aware of the dwindling population of lions  and tigers in India. The problem has become so enormous that these animals may vanish soon. This sparked off a serious concern in her mind for wildlife and the attendant problems. She regretted her inability to do anything for lions and tigers. As she grew up-- both chronologically and politacally-- she wanted to concentrate on issues related to wildlife. She thought hard about the next animal whose existence could be under a threat. And, she new the answer. It is the elephant. She felt this is her moment. She was convinced she would do something very important for elephants. So she decided to have statues of elephants in the parks so that future generations would know what an elephant is when it becomes extinct in India. A noble idea, indeed. She is not confined to only these inanimate elephants. In fact, these elephants are in suspended animation. She has a secret plan to bring them alive when the live ones are all gone. She has already established a highly confidential facility to breed these elephants and release them throughout the length and breadth of the country. Only then we would realise the importance of what Mayawati is doing now. I have a serious concern, though. Why are so many statues of Mayawati also there standing majestically alongside those of the elephants? Does she plan to bring herself also alive when she is not there. O God! How will we handle hundreds of Mayawatis if it is so difficult to handle the one that we have now? Bharat ________________________________ To: Undisclosed-Recipient@...

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 With respect,  Yes Sir, you can not handle a single Mayawati. The whole media with their pack of twisted lies without any data to support it. CBI and not to say beaurocracy, work overtime just to bring her down. India as a nation has no problem with mass murderes, they are great leaders, it does not matter if they are selling their state to industrialist but at least it gets them good reviews in papers. India does not have a problem with Madams, Babas and their gangs. What is the big deal if they have no connection with ground reality. But MAYAWATI- how dare she? She must be brought down. It doesn't matter if AIIMS seats are sold (graduate and PG both)-from 20 lakhs to 1 crore but reservation ----NO!     It will dilute the Institute, we must protest and humiliate the candidate.     Akshardham never needed any enviormental clearance but the park in Noida must be stopped.     No other election symbol needed covering, but Elephant it must be humiliated.  Despite all this Sir, let's see if they can halt it !!!!  Sanjay    ________________________________ To: " mgims " <mgims > Sent: Saturday, 14 January 2012 3:52 PM Subject: Re: Pink Elephants  A lot of stupidity is unduly attached to Mayawati.
