Smoke on the water

There are three bits of information that excited me as an Economist Sardarji Prime minister this Sunday.

First is the bit of news that Mumbai Police had sized Rs 3 million of fake currency. The people arrested were Dawood Abdul Rahim Khan of Dharavi, Anandraj Ramkrishna Mupannaar of Sivakasi in Tamil Nadu and Jaiprakash Oshi of Kerala. This goes to show that India is secular under congress rule.

Second, the caste dispute at Jagannath temple at Keradagarh village has been resolved. Dalits have been kept out of the temple for long. Dalits and Brahmins can now pray from a distance. Only priest can get up and close to the deity. This goes to show that all Dalits from Keradagarh village should be admitted to the medical colleges and all should become doctors.

The third piece of news is that 'Deep Purple' is to rock Bangalore. Deep Purple, unlike IBM’s Deep Blue, is not a computer. They are going to play a rock song called “Smoke on the water”. I thought as a Prime Minister, I should know what the software capital of the nation is listening to. And maybe you too should know. So here are the lyrics that are expected to swoon Bangalore.


We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out of ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
Swiss time was running on
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water

Thank you for a patient reading. Now you can see the picture!
