Rs 12, Rs 5 and Rs 1

Last week some of our politicians made fun of poor people in the country, by declaring that a proper meal can be had for Rs. 12, Rs. 5 and Rs. 1. These three politicians hence forth called as “Three Indian Wise Men”.  The Planning commission few months before said the per capita income for an urban BPL Rs. 33 and Rs. 27 for rural, which puts 21% of our population below poverty line (BPL).  I guess these three wise men are endorsing the planning commission.  

Rs 1 – Get a boomer gum and keep on chewing all day.

The son of Kashmir, one among the three wise men, can say that for Rs 1 we can get one idli in Tamil Nadu.

May be one day these politicians will say, "look in Shivaji movie, Rajani got back his fortunes with just one rupee, why can’t these poor people be smart like Shivaji".
