Why are all these organizations making ’samaana’ and honouring all these new MLAs’ and Ministers?! Fine a general celebration and joy of victory. Now let these august leaders get down to settling down to serious work and making good their manifestos at least to a reasonable extent - then based on their success further honours can be given. This sort of waste of time and money and more is only a multi pronged loss to the public. Please my dear people and leaders etc.. do not go in for this further....don’t you know enough of what has gone on for many years past now - let this stop now!-ijss. |
