It seems that former terras are finding it hard to adjust to the democratic fray. There he was, the chief ministering one for the province that is east, the Moonly Beautiful one, travelling through the province when he saw the area DIG. He stopped and wanted the kakhi one to salute him. Instead of a salute he got some savoury words that began with "Umbe Ammata…" Tch! Tch!

Frisky

Talking of salutes, the green tunics were up in arms at the House by the Diyawanna when they all were frisked before being allowed entry because the Compassionate One was making his appearance with a posse of bodyguards. The irony was not lost on Ravi the Kind Leader — "Someone who killed hundreds of our soldiers is now guarded by them while we are being body searched in parliament!" Aha!

Marching Orders

Ma-hinder is not very happy with the goings on at the ministry where everything is foreign. The brewing battle between Boggles and his Sec Kohone is reaching crisis point and no work is getting done. Now Ma-hinder is toying with the idea of sending the Sec packing somewhere far, far away. Sin no!

Learning Experience

Gota had got his wires crossed when he was ranting over Stalingrad and the article by Raman. When Ra-kneel heard of the details he chuckled and asked his office to send a book on the battle through his security to Gota. "For a national cause I don’t mind doing this," he told his security types. Hee! Hee!

Poor Deva was getting all ready to fly to Injun land with Baa-sil to show that the Dravidians were not victimised no matter what the Nadu guys may say. But when the Injuns heard of the plan, they said no can do and poor Deva was left behind. Ouch!

Double Act

The Injuns are also reading the cloak and dagger parlour games here. With Ma-hinder taking a conciliatory approach others are taking a harder stance, like Chump-ika and others like Doo-minda Dissa was even seen at an anti-Injun demo in NCP way. Hmm...

Parting Ways
