Mamata Banerjee is, perhaps, the second most entertaining politician in Indian history (after Laloo Prasad)
A treat to watch her presenting the railway budget'10
I give a thumbs up to the budget.
Her antics made the Lok Sabha come alive today (in a different way) The highly enjoying Sonia Gandhi and a visibly amused L K Advani drove home the point.
Golden moments:
1. Reads out the list of 130 new trains in one breath, interjected by comical apologies for mis-pron(o)uncing the names of most of them.
2. Her constant jibes at detractors in a very evil way (she even at one point of time replied to somebody in Bengali)
3. While announcing the Ankura-Agartala rail link, somebody quips up and our didi says with a mock smile "You theenk thees eez olso phor Bengol. eet eez awar nebaaring kaantry" Amazing!
4. Classic: While facing stiff opposition and ruckus mamata says: "Okay shaaut! Aai veel kaat awl"(referring to the 'cut' of the new services announced.
5. The way she flopped back into the chair after an almost 2 hour long marathon speech. Hilarious!
Truly Didi tera viewers deewana (only during the budget speech, that is!)
