BANDH AGAISNT OUR RED INDIANS!

I was supposed to fly to Dubai on the 6th of June, Friday but could not thanks to the BANDH called by CPM and Mamata Di. These political parties have surely mastered the art of bringing the city to a grinding halt at the snap of a finger and it is truly amazing to see how easily we comply with it. While the bandh called by political parties meant party time for some, I unwillingly too had to be a party to it! Well how can I protest but by cracking a few irritating PJs.

These Communist Parties identify themselves with the colour RED or LAAL and it is surprising that ‘LAALu Prasad isn’t a communist! When Brinda Karat received a love letter from CPM supremo Prakash karat during their college days she probably must have said “It’s a RED letter day for me”!! I wouldn’t be surprised if our CM Budha Babu’s daak naam is LAALtu and during his childhood the only bed time story he loved listening to was the RED riding hood!One can only wonder where they get all their energy from?? Maybe from RED bull! No wonder then that most of the things these Reds speak is all Bull! I would pay anything to see our Bandh loving comrades in the LAAL bazaar thaana!

The bruises suffered by our city cannot be healed by any Band-aid , it probably needs BANDH-Aids!! Neither can the dirty politics of Bandh be cleaned by any dry cleaners..not even Band Box dry cleaners but only by the BANDH –Box dry cleaners!!

Well for some strange reason they call themselves LFTISTS and for these political honchos left means right and right is wrong. Nothing more to say when they have LEFT the state at God’s mercy. These bandhs seem to be more precious to them than 24 KARAT gold!

Sometimes I wonder what CPM really stands for. The most appropriate would be Constantly Protesting Men or Continuously Procastinating Maniacs! These politicians are ideally supposed to be a friend of the ordinary person and they surely have proved to be a loyal BANDHu !

At the same time Mamata Didi has proved to be no less vociferous in protesting against fuel price hike than her dada Budha babu. She ties him a rakhi on every rakshaBANDHan day and sings “Bhayia mere rakhi ke BANDHan ko nibhana”! when it comes to calling a HARTAAL Mamata Buddha ke HAR-TAAL se taal mila rahi hain!!

I don’t know how long this bandh culture will continue to cripple our beautiful city of Kolkata but I earnestly pray they do not call a BANDH against this blog!
