The Best of U-Turn Sarkar #49days special - You Can't Miss This Article

As the magic 49 number of days of Modi Sarkar comes to a close, It has been a good journey. Isn't it ? Looking back at some of the hilarious points of what is fast coming to be known as the U-Turn Sarkar.

Should India be entertaining Pakistani VIPs if there is conflict at the border?

That is how Modi Sarkar began. Before, Modi had only contempt for Manmohan Singh’s sarkar that apparently did not retaliate strongly enough to Indian soldiers being killed at the border. That too, in Telugu, it seems.

Modi blasts Manmohan Singh for taking killings at the LoC lightly

Modi himself had refused the evil Pakistanis in a massive demonstration of patriotic solidarity. Little did Dr. Manmohan Singh know that when people say his silence was a problem, they mean it. He could have tried something as simple as inviting Pakistan’s Prime Minister for an important national function. Like so:
Modi on LoC conflicts and relations with Pakistan before and after

Or perhaps I may be wrong, and this may not be a patriotic move so much as the first installment on the election campaign expenses. Even as the poor beheaded jawan’s wife was protesting. Sometimes greater good has to be seen.
Modi's sponsor Adani wants to sell power to Pakistan

But at least Modi was right about the other borders I think. Illegal Bangladeshis are such a nuisance. Modi was right to threaten to deport them
Bangladeshis were to be deported before elections
Bangladeshis were to be deported before elections
but there is a problem. After all, he’d just invited their Prime Minister for his coronation. So he at least tried to get rid of the “illegal” from it, if not deporting.
Visa-free entry to Bangladeshis under 18 years and over 65 years
Visa-free entry to Bangladeshis under 18 years and over 65 years
The solution was so simple, one must really wonder why Dr. Mannu (Manmohan Singh) never thought of it. Simply allow them visa free entry – voila! Now they can stay where they are legally!!!

This Modi sarkar is pure genius, I tell you.

What about that evil Gandhi bloodline (excluding the pure blood of Varun Gandhi, BJP). Dr. Subramanian Swamy had Priyanka Gandhi red handed. Multiple DINs! That evil witch and that Karti Chidambaram!!!
Appropriately terrified, Priyanka Gandhi confessed to making multiple applications and offered to pay the fine (and nicely ignored the jail time, thank you very much).
But wait. That was before. Now that Modi sarkar is in place, the greater efficiency showed that Priyanka Vadra may have applied as many times as she liked, but the super efficient (retrospectively as well) Ministry of Corporate affairs had actually issued her only one DIN. What a DIN about DINs. Just like Nitin Gadkari (No, you can’t check now, the extra DINs nicely show “not yet issued” now that a better government is in place.)
Modi sarkar had Vadra terrified while UPA2 was in rule.
Vadra security privileges - before
Vadra security privileges – before
Then, as they campaigned, they probably thought a panicked Vadra would fight too hard to defeat them, so they kinda…. reassured.
Action against Vadra or no? Election Campaign
Action against Vadra or no? Election Campaign
And never let it be said BJP goes back on its word. Robert Vadra remains unscathed.
What about Robert Vadra's security exemptions?
What about Robert Vadra’s security exemptions?
They had even terrified the couple together. Imagine losing security privileges and having to go through security checks at airports? I bet the couple lost sleepless nights.

Modi Sarkar has brought acche din to the country.

Jaitlet had thought that the Income Tax exemption slab should be raised to 5 lakh before the elections. Now that he got to present the budget, he raised it to 2.5 lakh.

What should the IT exemption slab be? Beore and after

Hey! No need to get outraged! If you ignore the decimal point, 25 is five times 5.

What about investments in railways?

Everything perfect on that front. Just watch.
What about the railways? Before and after
What about the railways? Before and after
We have no hesitation in telling you that UPA2 would have totally messed up the privatization of railways and FDI, but now that it is a BJP sarkar and BJP no longer plays dog in the manger with the government, many things that UPA2 wanted to do are now possible without BJP staging a walkout against itself.

Still not convinced? You are a cynical sickular. Try this.

Modi railway hike before and after

Oh wait. I meant this.

uday-lalit-amit-shah-after
Amazing, isn’t it, the things you can do when you can get a dozen newspapers to publish near identical articles without sources that can push things that happened before the election aside? Like this one?
Did Uday Lalit represent Amit Shah? Before
Did Uday Lalit represent Amit Shah? Before

There are many, many such gems. And you cannot blame BJP. After all, they have delivered the only real promise they made before the election – Modi as PM. To avoid confusion, they even avoided publishing a manifesto as far as possible.

So you really cannot claim that they cannot do U-Turns.


Welcome to the opening innings of U-Turn sarkar. May the remaining period be as hilarious as so far… and may worries about the country never plague your dazzled brain.

    Sunanda Pushkar Found dead in Delhi Hotel - Twitter Controversy

    Latest Development on the Death Controversy

    New Delhi, Jan 17: Sunanda Pushkar, who was upset over an alleged extra-marital affair between her minister husband Shashi Tharoor and a Pakistani journalist, was found dead in a five-star Hotel Leela room no 345.
    The incident came to fore around 8pm after the hotel authorities informed the police.

    Pushkar had checked into the five star hotel on Thursday, police said. Sources said she was last seen at 3.30pm on Friday in the hotel lobby.

    The housekeeping staff apparently knocked on Sunanda’s door at 7pm but got no response. The hotel staff allegedly opened the room with another swipe card and found her dead on her bed, sources in south Delhi police told TOI.
     
    On Twitter along with his wife Sunanda Pushkar have been trending on Twitter a day after he tweeted that his account has been hacked (allegedly by a Pakistani national).


    Shashi Tharoor is Minister of State for Human Resource Development in the Manmohan Singh government.

    In the latest row, Tharoor’s wife Sunanda Pushkar has alleged that a Pakistani journalist is after her husband.


    Mehr Trar Tweet:

    Remarkably, Shashi and Mehr have been interacting on Twitter for quite sometime now.

    Sashi Tharor tweets:

    Pushkar informed a TV channel that there is no problem between her and Tharoor.

    “Mehr Tarar is stalking my husband. Mehr Tarar is an ISI agent. I will ask RAW to look into this. I feel personally targeted by Pakistani journalist,”

    Here’s what Mehr said to NDTV,



    Joint Statement by Sunanda and Shashi Tharoor:

    Meanwhile Tarar denied all allegations against her and tweeted..


    Tweeple found humour and political satire in this online turmoil too. While some termed it Bollywood romance triangle, some started suggesting that India should alter its foreign policy towards the hackers’ countries, namely Pakistan and China.

    Meanwhile the bitter tweets cannot be found on Tharoor and Pushkar’s accounts anymore. Pushkar had earlier said that Tarar is ‘stalking’ her husband.

    It was a day of Cricket and for Cricket Lovers !!

    No one even thought in the early morning when Sri Lanka was batting that India will fight back and at the end Cricket will win. At the early begining of the match the way SriLankan Players(especially Dilshan and Sangakkara) were batting, it was looking like India has given up. But who knows Cricket is a FUNNY game. you can’t predict anything in Cricket. The way Indians played(especially KOHLI), they kept themself alive for the finals.
    I don’t think this tournament can come in any better way, at the halfway stage, Sri Lanka would have felt they had one foot in the final, having left the India bowlers deflated after a dominating performance with the bat. And they would have been right to think that way, the Indian batting having shown little promise in the series and the team on the brink of elimination.
    But Virat Kohli put a master peice of strokemaking, Kohli’s innings made a mockery of an imposing score, kept India’s finals hopes alive and left Sri Lanka having to beat Australia for a third time in the tournament to knock India out.
    Hope for Reaching in Final is still Alive.. here how it possible..

    Now India and SL both is having same 15 points, in this case if Sl is loosing the match against Australia then this is the way two best team is goign to decide.
    In the event of teams finishing on equal points, the right to play in the final match or series will be determined as follows:

    •The team with the most number of wins
    •If still equal, the team with the most number of wins over the other team(s) who are equal on points and have the same number of wins
    •If still equal, the team with the highest number of bonus points
    •If still equal, the team with the highest net run rate


    In a match declared as no result, run rate is not applicable.

    So comming Friday Cheers for Australia and Hope for the best for Indian Cricket.
