Chennai, Apr 20: Ms Priyanka Vadra's sensational meeting with her father Rajiv Gandhi's assassin Nalini Sriharan, has unwittingly brought to the fore yet another dimension with larger political implications. Political circles feel that the ''hush-hush'' meeting that took place on March 19 at the Vellore central prison, where Nalini is lodged, was meant to send a subtle message to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

Ghandi name has the brand recognition. Whoever holds on to the Ghandi name, rightly or wrongly, has the sole right to ruin India. In that respect, Raul Maino Gandhi is 100% qualified to be the PM of India. Jagdish Tytler should become the minister of defence. He would certainly complete the unfinished job of getting rid of Sikhs. I am sure PM Manmohan would be very happy to make sure CBI understands what is good for India and accordingly. CM Modi, having successfully orchestrated the eliminattion of 3000 muslims, would be a great contender for Jagdish Tytler's post. But he is not as secular as Congressis. That rules him out. But then, Modi can always become a Congressman. Advaniji, having lead the team in the Babri Masjid demolition, would be very upset if he is not made the defence minister. I am not sure how that would play out. Come on guys, who is the guy who valiantly killed the Christian priest and his family along with young children? Won't he be upset? What about those great Hindu warriors who raped the nuns in Orissa? My god, am I proud to be an Indian. Am I proud to say Jai Hind. But, I am a Tamil. That would mean, you want my severed head on a platter.
