I’m
not surprised that the Harvard
University invited Lalu Prasad Yadav to deliver a lecture on
management. If he could create horns for
pigs, Harvard could colonise paradise.
The
cartoon is taken from the latest issue of Tehelka. The magazine says that Lalu’s Rs950-crore
scam that sent him to jail (which he will make a paradise inviting the
Harvard professors to visit him) had some “fantastic” statistics. For example:
“...
Rs 15 lakh worth of mustard oil for polishing horns of buffaloes and pigs (yes,
pigs) and several crores for transporting cattle on oil tankers, police vans,
autorickshaws, and scooters (yes,
scooters)."[emphasis added]
The
title of the article is: “TAKING THE STATE FOR A RIDE: How a CM & Co gamed
the system.”
I
think the cartoonist should have added horns to the pigs on the scooter.
Lalu
Yadav should be given management lessons in oiling the horns of pigs in the jail.
How
long will ordinary people continue to let politicians like Lalu Yadav take them
for rides?
Can't expect much from a politician. But Lalu is such a great entertainer, much better than those boring comedians we use to see in TV :)
ReplyDeleteI too used to be amused by Lalu's antics and one-liners. He must be entertaining people in jail now.
DeleteLalu is Lalu afterall....If he can change China to Bihar in one month,God knows what he is capble of.. :-P
ReplyDeleteNow he can change the jail to Bihar!
DeleteWe are all so used to being taken for a ride that we have stopped responding. Its high time we think before we vote and demand better leaders.
ReplyDeleteYes, we the people have to do some serious thinking and do some serious action.
DeleteGlad to entertain you.
ReplyDeleteIt will go on happening till time immortal unless Indians achieve a 80 to 100 % literacy
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to distrust literacy, friend. I'm a teacher. Today's schooling only makes uncultured, uncivilised people who can differentiate between a and e and that too with much difficulty.
DeleteYes, it's indeed a sad state of affairs :(
ReplyDeleteOur politicians seldom offer us any ray of optimism.
