Mamata SMSes Sonia

Mamata Banerjee in her press conference yesterday said that she SMSed Sonia Gandhi asking her to rollback the diesel hike etc.But Sonia did not respond.

Isn’t it amazing that the Chief Minister of one of the post populous states in India communicates with the Head of the ruling coalition via SMS?Why can’t they just pick up the phone and talk to each other?

SMSes are notorious for their security imperfections.What if somebody intercepts/hacks these SMSes and alters them?

The lack of communication between these two powerful women is astonishing.No wonder UPA 2 in its present avatar has been unable to govern.

Maybe both these ladies need to learn from Govinda “What is your mobile number?Karni hai friendly baatein, give me your dial number !!”

Its a beautiful day in Mumbai

Today is Ganesh Chaturthi and Mumbai City welcomes its Ista Devata (Favorite God) Ganapati.

The streets are choc-a-bloc with processions and it feels like a day of gaiety and piety.

This Bollywood number captures a bit of the Mumbai love for Ganesha.
