I simply love my Deccan Chronicle. It is so tantalizingly provocative.
For instance the other day it published this lead letter in its 'Letters to the Editor' column:
...DC 27 May 2014:
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Congrats Modi
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
It is all of two days since this letter appeared in print but still I am not able to decide whether the author of this letter had his tongue in his cheek, or out of it.
To continue his wish list I would add:
...Who knows, if he had invited the Army Chief of Pakistan, we might have got back our POK...
...Who knows, if he had invited the ISI Chief, we might have got our 26/11 mastermind (heavily bearded)...
...Who knows, if he had invited the bearded chief himself, we might have got back our West Pakistan (along with Afghanistan)...
...Who knows, had our Amma come down and met our Mohinda, we might have got back our Eelam, if not our Lanka of Ramayan itself...
...Who knows, had the Bangladesh PM come down to Delhi instead of running away to Japan, and met our Didi on the way, we might have got back our East Pakistan too, making it our cherished Super Akhand Bharat...
...Who knows, had we invited our lame duck Nobel Laureate himself (along with his selfie), we might have got a signed copy of his 'Audacity of Hope'...
...As it is, what we got back from Islamabad is the hot cake reiteration of the explosive Samjhota, nothing more, nothing less...

Congrats to Narendra Modi for inviting the heads of neighbouring countries for his swearing-in, particularly Nawaz Sharif and Mohinda Rajpakse. In return they released Indian fishermen. Mr Modi has brought happiness to the families of the fishermen. Who knows, if he had invited his Chinese counterpart, we might have got back the land we lost during Nehru's time.

tongue-wag are all our muslim soldiers)...
