When Rahul Gandhi Travelled by train

Yesterday Morning (February 5th , 2010 )..... we had a news channel runnning the news that Rahul Gandhi is reaching Mumbai &  Shiv Sena will try in every possible ways to make his visit a failure.... the  channel showed text SMS where Shiv Sena directed people to welcome Rahul ( probably future prime minister) with black flags.... Wow........when I was watching news I felt congress is doing a gimmick and Sena is replying back in gimmick :)... I saw his itenary which said from airport to Juhu & then to Vikhroli by helicopter ( My instant feeling was : Polititians , I hate them they blow up tax payer's money like this ) and left for office.

As  a commoner I don't hate Rahul Gandhi ,however neither do I like him.... ... One of the major reasons ,  Rahul's area of interest are UP , Bihar and north east  as if they are the only states of India.......My Mahrashtra also has its share of problems ; Mumbai /Mahrashtra has always been denied fund , or given in a diminished amount ( 26/ 7 major infrastructure development , Railway line upgradation  ) ....Majority of my state lives in load shedding upto 6 hrs .... there were no power plant generation projects in pipeline for years..........and poor farmers taking suicide as a route to solve their problems..........He would understand this only if he visits us.........& he being from centre ( he is being promoted as future prime minister too ) makes him an important personality...........

 In the evening when I reached home , I asked so how was Rahul's Trip ( in a sarcastic tone ) ; and my sister said he travelled by local train......... I was delighted .... finally ; someone knows how to reach people and their heart .... Sena's plan was foiled too ........Ek teer se do nishan..... :) :) ....

Just adding - I hope he visits other parts of the state too as Mumbai is part of Maharashtra and not whole Maharashtra ..... I hope to Maharashtra gets benefitted from Rahul Gandhi's Visit....

  1. Rahul gandhi is indeed a smart politician. the ease with which he made his way inroads to millions of mumbaikars and indians by just taking a train ride is something which makes him class apart from masses hating politicos..

  2. In politics as expected, one should go through all lows, should have lived like a common man and after struggling reaches to the political highs. But the Congress yuvaraj has his traditional sequence. Gandhi's in our country first becomes PM(or equivalent to PM) then they go in search of real, true,poor bla bla.... India.
    Very unfortunate that, 'politician meeting with common people' becomes news in this country. When it is supposed to be a primary job for them.
