This time, yes only this time, I was pondering really hard to whom should I write another letter. You fitted the bill Mr.Modi. I know one thing that by know my letters are popular enough for the warmth they contain. Somehow, I am not being able to bring that piece of warmth from my heart. I have rather mixed bag of feelings for you Mr. Modi. We Indians might not be the largest drinker of beers but when it come to “Shankpushpi” we gulp it in gallons, and still the result remains the same, we forget far more often. I think I am regressing from the the main motive of this letter, ‘you’, and that too in such a time, when your are busiest.

I mentioned that I have mixed bag of feelings for you, I feel that there must be a very intelligent brain inside your head, which is smart enough to bring large business houses to invest in your state. The other part of bag holds the very same grudge which is in every mind of your opposition. Since this is election time we are bound to remember the things which happened during last elections…popularly known as Godhra episode.

Lets do some man to man talk, dont you feel even if you had least role in the whole episode, that it was your responsibility to not let happen what happened.  Humanity calls for few things and that includes, thinking of others before self. I dont know what kind of interests you had, as we never had time to sit together and talk about it, but things really dont look good even after some 5 years.

Germany made huge amount of technical progress under Hitler, but still we can not wash the fact that his name will be attached to one of the gruesome crimes made in human history. Isnt there some similarity between you and him, even for that matter, Russia under Stalin, or Bengal under your twin separated at birth Buddha Deb. Great deal of progress was made by every state mentioned, on the cost of humanity. I dont hope to meet you soon, as my exams are going on and I dont have any plans to visit Gujrat( no, no, complete no during elections) any time soon. I still hope that you keep the answers ready for few of my question, not directed to you but  just out of my general curiosity,

Does development can only be made on cost of humanity?

Mr Modi, you need to work great deal to earn some soft corner in my letters. I dont expect you to become Gandhi but I still hope that you realize that elections and your being CM is not the end of the world.

Plainly for You,

Kax

Dear, Sachin

Sachin, unlike my other letters this is going to be a very short letter.

Its simple…Keep on playing like you are. I have no problem if you get out in 90’s if India is winning. Hey like I always do…Advice…here is one for you…stop reading newspaper. Why…? I know you are smiling…I know mate…Because they are not publishing my letters, and then they dont have anything worth reading to print.

Ciao

Dear Mushy,

People have problem when I get too personal with them, what can I do, I am like this only. I feel that at this point of time when you are really alone in this global community you will feel these so very personal and lovely words as nectar. Man what in hell were you eating or drinking when you took this F^(%#) up decision. I know, even having such a long time relationship and a very healthy camaraderie you will ask me to shut up citing that its none of my business. Have you gone crazy, you are my beloved neighbor, I have every thing to do with it and with your subjects.

I know power is a beautiful thing which makes people dirty, but why on this planet do you feel that you on your not so big shoulders and a small brain( when compared to mine) that you can turn the fate of your nation in a very small time period and that to by a very undemocratic manner. When your subjects see that their friends in here, can bash their leaders in a free nation like India freely then they feel like killing people like you. I dont want you to be dead, at least not now. Even if we take that power is necessary to you like your uniform being your exoskeleton (pseudo armadillo) then too, you need to extend emergency for a longer period, say 2 years. Whats the damn logic in keeping it short, bringing in a puppet caretaker government so early and then elections by January? You are wasting your nations resources and your brain, dont do it, just dont do it. Mushy, sit, take some deep breaths, and think…you need power and respect that was the reason you took that seat. Pakistani people like Indians have short memory, and the so called American pressure will go down as their elections are nearing, extend the bloody election as long as possible. I personally dont see any need for emergency, but if you really think it is right ( by the way what were your logics?) then there is no need for elections right now.

See, I tell you the action plan, postpone the elections, give your speech to nation( yours not mine ) on 1st of January and tell your people that since the situation of your nation is still not under control {read: your control (when were they in control?)} so you can not conduct elections now, and give them some vague date lets say 23 May, my birthday. People will come on road, burn buildings, dont worry none of them were made by you, they will die, take 3 deep breaths, they are not your kin. If you see problems are increasing and people are making some wonderful plans to kill you, then go for a foreign trip, on pretext that you want others to understand your problem. This will serve two purpose, 1. You will get international limelight, 2. Their security is better than yours, you will be secure there. By the time you return, things will be calmer, people would have already wasted there ammunitions. Hey, a word of caution, there can be “Takhta Palat”, so to avoid it, feed your subordinates and every time you go outside do make it a point that you visit your Switzerland based account and put some more cash and kind in there. If your detractors become successful in “Takhta Palat” dont worry…you are not in Pakistan, take refuge in some better and calmer place, which means any other nation than Pakistan, dude you already have enough money for you and your family.

Its a friends job to give right advice, so I have done my job, but my Mom is really angry with you. You never felt it necessary to inform us about your plans. One more thing, why do you say that it was the most difficult decision of your life, you always wanted emergency. When you said, “… I stand by it because I think (?) it was in the national interest…” I was impressed, and I think you can go to the extent and say that when you pee its in your nations interest.

Mushy, my exams are around the corner and they are lot more tricky than your countries situation, hope you understand my situation and dont take my cutting short of this letter otherwise.

Waiting for our reply.

Yours Truly
