During electioneering...

1. Congress Party's Latest Allegation.

    The French national newspaper Le Monde has reported that the French authorities had waived off
    taxes worth 143.7 million Euros in favour of Anil Ambani's France based telecom company called
    Reliance Atlantic Flag France. It was cleared a few months after the Rafael deal was announced. It
    has been reported by Kapil Sibal with Sam Pitroda, in the wings!

    Reliance Communications has since issued a clarification and said that the tax dispute pertains to
    2008!

    Note the timing of the allegation, the second phase of elections is on 16 Apr, Tuesday.

2. Yasin Malik Finally Under the Scanner!

    He is one of the most dreaded persons in the Valley and his crimes range from the killing of IAF
    officials, the genocide of Kashmiri Pandits, the killing of Rubaiya Saeed, sister of Mehbooba
    Mufti.

    Mehbooba's angst at his custody by the NIA for trial, seems strange.

3. The Bhejipadar Village Boycotts Lok Sabha Polls.

    Bhejipadar in Kalahandi, Orissa has boycotted the Lok Sabha elections. Totalling 666 voters, they
    sat outside the booth but did not cast their votes. They are protesting for the construction of an
    easier road connectivity to the town.

    People have realised the tremendous power that they wield against the politicians!


Tailpiece.

Had got up with the alarm, gone through our chores and were ready well in time. Wished Ammu many happy returns as it was her birthday as per the Malayalam calendar. Lekha had gone to both, the Guruvayur and Mammiyur temples by about 1000 hrs. Had gone to the Rajah Petrol pump to top up fuel in our Chevy.
