Okay now let me warn you before hand about a real-life account that happened couple of hours back in our capital city.
Kindly please hold on to something strong and steady because believe me once you read this you wouldn’t be able to stop laughing till your literally spill your guts out.
3 youngsters (2 girls and 1 boy) hailing from Jaipur city, decided to pay a visit to the Prime Minister of India at his residence because they thought that it would be more worthwhile than strolling down India Gate. Alrighty, I made the second bit but it is true that these guys actually went to meet Dr. Manmohan Singh.
But what’s even more bizarre than this is the reality that they were able to drive up to one of the inner gates of minister’s residence. The Special Protection Group (SPG) personnel actually let them thru – which points out a serious breach of security.
Youngsters, who were driving a black Sonata, didn’t look to be bothered by the whole situation; I mean these kids could have been shot down by any of the security guard present there. To top it up with even more humor, the lady driver was actually blowing kisses to the cameras and the media personal who were present at the venue for some conference. Now I always thought that today’s generation was confident but these people actually took it to a complete new level.
Once the news about the intruders reached the SPG, they sent out a van to get hold of them and managed to stop them just before the alighting point at the Prime Minister’s 7, Race Course Residence. But to make matters even topsier turvey, SPG personnel just asked them to leave the premises. Yes! Yes! That’s it.
They actually drove out as easily as they had made their way in. But thankfully some sense prevailed within the SPG and they caught up with them at the near-by market. And now have been taken in for questioning by the police.
From the TV reports, it appears that the 3 of them were in a mood of playing a prank and so they decided to check out how well their idea would come into play, if they actually got to meet the Prime Minister.
And now their silly prank has landed them in a big soup. I wonder for how many days they will be grounded by their parents and definitely no pocket allowance.
Anyways from now on I shall not blame our PM if tomorrow another one of our cities gets blown up; I mean seriously the poor man can’t even count on his own men to save his own butt so we can just forget about counting on – him counting – on them – to take care of us.
ps…Do you think the Bhatts would make a movie on this too?

I think some time back Mid-day, Mumbai tabloid, had done a similar operation where they managed to sneak into Mantralaya, the CM’s residence and other assorted “high security” areas simply based on the fact that they arrived in a white Merc or an Ambassador and looked all official about it!

Well the girls have lost their jobs with Air Sahara. Plus it turns out that the driver actually lied to the SPG saying that she was PM’s niece.
Anyways lets see what comes out of this.

I heard that the boy Imran is a son of some high profile person in Delhi and no action has been taken against him

Ranajith Kumar – I highly doubt that he would be let off that easily. Though it should be noted that from the ideo footage it was evident that the DRIVER was actually the one who was boasting out loud about her Prank idea. The boy was infact looking really scared or shocked by the whole situation.
All in all I think that they will be set free with a strong warning.

The car has a VIP license plate, so I assume there is going to be a cover up.

Ranajith Kumar – True the car did have a VIP license plate. And the car belongs to a high profile’s son in Delhi who happens to be the Driver’s good friend. All the three intruders belong to Jaipur city. The whole episode has been blown up so much by the media…it would be really hard for the officials to just let it slip under the carpet.
But then in India..anything is possible.

If a Manu sharma can walk scot free. This cover up should be a piece of cake to pull up.

Hey Sakshi, what are you talking about? Why do we need security. Especially the manmohans and sonias of the country. And especially if the people who want to drop in at PMs residence happen to be minorities. he he. India is a secular, progressive and liberal country. Whats wrong if someone wants to meet the prime-minister. (* evil grin *) And set off some diwali crackers too.
Below is a comment I found on the rediff page –
>> I am surprised that the news report is silent on the third occupant of the car, Imran, while telling us abbbout Yogita and Veena
Quite true.
Well, I suppose the newspersons, as always , want to prove “I art more secular than thou” . Or is it MCPs at work here ??

Shadows – I guess the media mostly wrote about Yogita and Veena because they were the ones who were willing interacting with the journalists present at the sight. Also if you have seen the footage, the girls were laughing…blowing kisses and calling out to the media people at the PM’s house. All this while…the Imran was quiet and his face was completely zapped up.
As for being a secular country….don’t you think we are just taking the whole idea a bit too far?

Yeah. True. The idea has been taken too far by the likes of Mulayam, laloo, sonia and manmohan. They preach liberty and secularism and human rights. I say, why dont sonia and manmohan practice what they preach. Why stop little naughty gals from having a bit of fun.
