Clean Up, but dont touch the panes!

It was 06.07.08 yesterday. At 12 Akbar Road, it was a spontaneous outburst of natural instinct when a few flower pots were accidentally knocked down and cracked as the people marched into the house of our fatherly Union Minister. Instinctively a few people bent down to pick the broken pieces and make the place as spick and span as before they had entered as any disciplined and well brought up Pandit kid would do. Unfortunately a few pieces in this clean up process got misdirected and broke a couple of window panes of Mr Soz's outhouse which happened to lie somewhere between the driveway and the dustbin.

After that like good hearted romantic movie protagnists, 50 of these pandit kids decided that they could just sit down and raise slogans while someone came out to take the memorandum from the house. This belief was reinforced by the fact that they were casually let into the house. I am sure all of you know, an Akbar Road gate can not just open by the mere push of 8 KP's 6 of whom happened to be of the feminine gender including a couple with lap babies.

And then in true movie style the police arrived around 50 minutes late, and then they even allowed these kids to leisurely set a few scraps of paper on fire that was the memorandum that might have been submitted if any well meaning staff of of Mr. Soz would have come out. But unfortunately, Mr Kutty was too busy thinking whether to use force on us or not and how would his reaction have been if Mr Soz was inside the house.

Eventually when enough damaging evidence was recorded of Hoodlum Pandits and the voice overs of some old debates between Imam of Jama Masjid in Delhi and Praveen Bhai Togadia of VHP added, the video was sent to Greater Kashmir for bringing out its article. Thats where the slogans of "Down with Pseudo-Secularists", "Dont Let Al-Qaeda spoil Kashmiriyat" were in a single brush stroke beautifully painted into "Provocative Slogans" by the revered copy writers of Greater Kashmir. And we can't blame them, after all every one fears the Gun especially when it can anytime-any place be used to turn the editor into a historic "Vaadi Ki Awaaz"

I heard while Pandit Kids whom dear minister considered his own were enjoying the hospitality of Delhi Police under his able and direct guidance; Yaseen Mallik, Syed Ali Shah Geelani and others were singing a small little Happy Birthday Song for that wonderful toy called AK-47. It turned 61 years old yesterday.

Long Live "Sufi"din Soz, Long Live Kashmiriyat!!!
