Oh Salman

Oh, Salman! Initially, I did not want to comment on the topic as so much has been written about it ad nauseum that it has become like a cesspool full of mud, so when you venture to come out, this way or that way, your clothes are going to get spoiled in the end. Anybody in his position with means and money would have used the loopholes in the system to the hilt including you and me so there is no point in crying for those who don't have the means. I find it extremely difficult, to procure even a single bottle of blood for the neediest one because it costs a hell lot of money, but when an assassinated national leader and celebrated film star required blood transfusions, blood bottles were procured in dozens in no time. That's the reality for you and you have to accept it. No, I don't have any soft corner for this rich and utterly spoilt brat full with arrogance and attitude [ other was Sanjay Dutt ] but so much is written against him that it seems like trial by proxy.
Birds of the same feather flock together so Film fraternity thronging to show its solidarity with him in his times of [?] crisis is understandable, [ Surprisingly same camaraderie was conspicuously in short supply when Shiney Ahuja was under the scanner for, though punishable but much less severe crime of sexcapades, as against culpable homicide and in the other case, crime amounting practically to? sedition, or when same Bhai vowed to finish the carrier of Vivek Oberai for practically no offence of his.] but what's beyond any white collared so-called rational, bothered about the plunging values of society, intellectual is the support he is garnering from the die-hard, low brow single-screen moviegoer. Salman does not give him a dime but on the contrary, this man on the street throws a chunk of whatever little he earns to exist, to have just a glimpse of this two penny star who has delivered mediocre performance film after film. Even though fully aware of the fact that the one who came under his car and died unceremoniously was one of them!
In any philosophy of love it has been harped again and again from times immortal that if you love somebody from the bottom of your heart, you have to accept him/her the way he/she is, with all warts, with all the virtues and vices. Many relationships have failed or failing on this solid [ not slippery] fundamental grounds but it seems that it's not applicable to this fan of Salman, whatever. Definitely intriguing but explainable nonetheless. I don't like Salman as a movie actor or as a person but it seems that he has struck a chord in the man on the street somewhere deep inside. 
Is it not the acme of love, most undemanding!

If PM stepps down on demand of oppositon and media

Imagine. Due to constant barking of the stray dogs outside the official prime ministerial residence in New Delhi, PM resigns, declaring frankly that he could not deliver what he promised exactly a year ago. The Mercs were short in supply as the European economy was in doldrums due to the Greece crisis, so he could not gift a Merc to every Indian as promised. He could not improve the judiciary as the backlog was so much that it would have taken more than 300 years to clear the cases in Mumbai courts [alone] with the present speed of deliverance of justice. He could not empower woman because that was to be done by Pappu and Co so he left it at that. He could not go far with his 'Swachchta Abhiyan' because that would have endangered Rich Indian culture and civilization of spitting on roads, defecating on railroads and littering the roads in general. And at any cost, he had to stand by Indian ethos and did not want to hurt the sentiments of poor, common Indian on the street. 

So he has stepped down. scenario number one. Pappu and His mother Maria, [ Mythological figures from Greece, no relation to any present-day caricature, I mean Individual ] come  [ back] to power.
1. Bharat Ratna is conferred on Diggy for his masterstroke in bringing the duo back in the saddle.
2. Sub Bharat Ratna for Maverick from Maharashtra who coined the slogan 'India is Maria and Maria is India' after changing the stance for umpteen number of times, at times backstabbing the near and dears ones, [so called.] to be as near the saddle as possible.
3. Within 24 hours all the women in India are empowered and the divorce rate shoots very high, breaking the ceiling.
4. Suicides committed by farmers stop immediately with retrospective effect [ Government order] so, many dead farmers come back to life singing ballads of Pappu's Padyatra that brought them back to life.
5. Greece's Economy skyrockets as Indian money is siphoned out with blessing from Maria who originally hailed from that country.
6. The dollar becomes so cheap that India is asked to stop her growth immediately by China so that the Chinese economy gets a chance to remain afloat vis a vis India's and America's.
7. Within 48 hrs India finds 15 gold mines and 32 oil reserves on her subcontinent making average Indian very very rich by the fastest speed by any counter.
Difficult to enumerate the further events and course of actions, they are innumerable.
Scenario two.
Zaadu and co. comes in power. 
1. Party gets divided into 4 fractions, each one governing Indian subcontinent in its own fashion
2. All water, electricity, money, industry is diverted to Delhi making other states barren and bereft of any facilities.
3. So every Indian worth his salt marches towards Delhi to get water, electricity, ration, school and college education, a monthly quota of alcohol and condoms, free of cost.
4. Delhi has to extend her borders so much that her southern tip now is known as Kanyakumari, the northern tip still unknown due to Kashmir dispute.
5. Over a period of time, there was so much of garbage, political or otherwise that broom started falling short of its expectations so electronic sweepers were asked for, thereby forcing the party to change the electoral symbol.
3rd Option: All Yadavs come together and there starts a Big Big Yadavi. No one should dare to venture. The area is forbidden.
