The last domain of the
Punjabis has been invaded. Slowly and slowly my state is losing all its medals
and all that its been known for, in the glorious history of India. We were
known as the forerunner in agricultural productivity in wheat and rice. That has
also been stripped away from the state known for its progressive hardy farmers.
Then, came the question about milk and suddenly all that came forward was that Gujarat
had revolutionized the ladies (behind the ghungats they wore) and overnight the
worlds largest cooperative society was making waves and we all fell
Utterly butterly deliciously
in love’ with cute dimpled Amul girl who became the guardian of the aam aadmi
before Kejriwal.
And then, my erstwhile deputy
Cm went hunting for investment for the state to rescue it from the perceived
financial doldrums we are in. Apparently, we have a debt of Rs xyz breaking our
backs, and we have sunk in drug stupor and the funniest medal bestowed on us is
that we might assassinate our leaders.
And then, the last but not
the least the last bastion of my state, my character, my genetic structure got invaded,
chicken, you know apna kukkad. The Gujjus are going to source it for us.
Yaar what is this? My chicken
khurrana is becoming chicken Ambani. Just imagine, the recipes. Does everything
have to be business? You know, every aunty south of Amritsar and even the Khala
ji and Appa ji across the border have their secret recipe that adds the extra
zing to the butter chicken recipe. Every Punjabi worth his Punjabi genes and
his love for murga swears by the cream, and the makhan. As an NRI, sent me this
comment from KFC land saying uff not possible to eat mitha chicken.
Yaaron, apni izzat da swaal
hain , imagine chawla chicken replaced by khaitan ! In this let the taste buds
rule rather than commerce and let the Punjabi chicken remain true to us.
Ps last heard the Pakistani
Punjabi called it truce with India over this, and Sukhbir Badal ji was hailed
as the new peacemaker. He succeeded where all failed to stop the shelling at
the border. As, they say the buds (taste) do make us one.
