SECOND LETTER TO PRIME MINISTER FROM TYPICAL MOUSE FROM MUMBAI
20th April 2009

Dear Prime minister
Hello from typical mouse from Mumbai. Soon Mumbaikars will be going for vote. I would like to remind you what has happened in Mumbai during last five years.
During last election you had promised that Mumbai will be made like Shanghai. Next time when your plane lands in Mumbai please see for yourself which part of Mumbai looks like Shanghai. Half the Mumbai is filled with slums, exactly like what is shown in SLUMDOGS. Even dogs will not like to stay there, but we human beings have no choice.
Remaining half of Mumbai is occupied by multistory concrete jungle. Your former chief minister went on increasing FSI, collecting money from builders and pumping back to Delhi to fight election. No wonder your party gave maximum advertisement in media so people can see the good work done by your government which is not visible to ordinary citizen.
During last five years price of houses has increased three times and ordinary Mumbaikar can not even dream of having his own house in Mumbai. Thirty percent of money is paid in black, which is distributed among politician, bureaucrats and underworld. When more than 30000rupees are withdrawn from bank, it is to be informed. Nobody informs you about crores or rupees which are being paid as black money.
This reminds me of black money in Swiss banks. When Mr. Obama becameUS president he did not request, nor pleaded with Swiss banks. He simply filed a suit against Swiss banks for luring rich people to open Swiss bank account to evade taxation. Within a week banks were forced to pay fine of Rs 700 million dollars that is rupees 3500 Crore. They even disclosed names of 300 account holders. During your regime not a single paisa has been recovered not a single name has been disclosed. By the time some action is taken all the money will disappear and the only name of dead person will remain.
Fifteen years have passed when hundreds of people died in Mumbai bomb blast. Main conspirator Dawood is not only at large but still calling shots. Whether it is Gutka king or a builder or a Bollwood producer, each one of them pays him protection money. Same money is pumped back as bullet in the chest of people, poor police and soldiers. We feel as much secure as a mouse in presence of a cat. Today cricket matches are shifted to South Africa for security reason, why not shift parliament to London?
During Munich Olympics, Israel team was massacred. Within one year each one of attacker was done to death. We dare not touch Dawood.Former Prime minister Charan singh had described politician as eunuch. I will not use such words. Why insult eunuchs by comparing them with politicians?
November attack in Mumbai is still fresh in my mind. This was a wake up call. Your trusted friend Mr Sharad Pawar replaced one of the most honest ministers R R Patil with Mr Chagan Bhujbal about whose honesty, there cannot be two opinions. He is dishonest. He is person who made pimp out of most efficient Mumbai police force.
Last August I had gone to PriyaDarshini park near my place. There were youths from villages who had gathered there to give fitness exam for enrollment in police force. I asked one of them “Don’t you have to pay bribe to get selected” his reply was “At the time of Bhujbal we had to do it, but after R.R.Patil has became home minister it has stopped. “A villager boy knows all this, either Mr. Pawar is unaware of this or he likes to play cruel jokes.
Just before three days former chief minister Sushilkumar Shinde said “we chief ministers are just Ji Hajoors of Congress high command.” Reason for mushrooming of small parties is that local Congress leaders are like underwear which can be replaced any time.
Congress high command has only one commander and loyalty to commander supersedes loyalty to motherland. Even the most incompetent person like Mr Shivraj Patil was kept as home minister of country till he became a huge liability. Most talented president was discontinued and replaced by Pratibha DEVISINGH Patil just because commander wanted to give gift of first woman president to country. Person like Ms. Kiran Bedi would have been the best choice but even Mr Pawar who was kick-commander who became lick-commander wanted only politician to become president.
With the weakening of major political party even the poor billionaire farmer like Dev Gowda are coming back to life to serve the people. Every Tom, Dick & Harry wants to become prime minister since that is the only way to serve the nation. As soon as election results are out, donkeys will be trading horses.
Congress party who ruled country for maximum number of years has made greatest promise of bribing millions with 3 rupees rice, for those unfortunate millions surviving is the greatest luxury of life.
Last but not the least, Yesterday that is on 20 th April 2009 you said in Guwahati that ‘AS OF NOW’ nuclear weapons of Pakistan are in safehand. Mark your world ‘AS OF NOW’ so you are not sure what will happen tomorrow or whether there will be any tomorrow? Your assurance that our future is in safe hands of Congress is as much assuring as word of prostitute that she is virgin.
Some time Mr. Prime minister I wonder why I am writing all this? What purpose it will serve? But then I cannot forget faces of thousands of youngsters who had gathered at Gate way of India after the Mumbai attack. They all were against politicians. They were all chanting “HUM HONGE KAMYAB” I might be a little typical mouse but I will never be a rubber stamp, at least I will squeak. Thanking you.

Typical Mouse from Mumbai
