In the coming few days, the public in India will be enjoying the two tamasha filled IPLs which will be played out almost simultaneously.
Indian Premier League - The brainchild of Mr. Lalit Modi, the IPL after a very successful first season last year moves to South Africa this year. This move was essential after it was thought that with the elections on at the same time, it will be better to have the tamasha abroad.

Back to the old ages
In the manifesto released by a political party aspiring for nation wide status and whose leader has not shied away from his ambitions to be a future Prime Minister of the country, its mentioned that the party will ban the use of English and Computers if it comes to power in the general election. So what else can we expect if this party comes to power?
1. Stopping the production of electricity. Electricity leads to electric devices, which ensure majority of the work is done by them. This leads to shortage of jobs.
2. Ending all industries in the country. Didnt our country and people survive before industrialization?
3. Having 10 guards for each politician. This way, for each politician, there will be 10 people employed in his security. So more employment opportunities.
4. No airplanes to fly. As there are no computers, its implicit that all airports and airlines will be closed. Only way to enter India for foreign nationals and NRIs will be by ship or road. People should travel within the country by bus or train.
5. Each state will be free to implement its own language. Only that language will be spoken in that particular state. People speaking any other language will be prosecuted.
6. However there will be a few English medium schools available. But they will be open to admission only for children of politicians.
7. All industry owners must give up their position in their company. All the people in the industry, beginning with the owner down to the last person on the payroll will receive equal salary.
This way, we will take India back to the pre-British era, one where the country was truly shining.
