SP promises to ban the 21st century

It's back to bad haircuts, kitschy clothes and writing more than 140 characters at a time.

In a bid to take away the "we'll take you back to the stone age" mantle away from the left parties, the Samajwadi Party announced in it's manifesto that if it comes to power, it will ban the 21st century.

In an interview, SP supremo, Mulayam Singh Yadav said that "Duh. We love the past. That's where we want to be. Why do you think we keep nominating Jaya Pradha, huh?"

"Look, it's not like we're totally into the past", said SP general secretary Amar Singh, "We just believe that until everyone is on the same page, the country should not advance. In our conservative estimates, by the year 2420, everyone will be miserable in equal proportions.  Until then, we can't even think about removing the ban. So you better get with the program and party like it's 1997. However, please note that it's not a ploy to bring back cargo pants. That's just a positive side-effect. Now please excuse me while I go get the dust off of my Spice Girls CD collection".

"We also wanted to ban common sense and the formality of integrity. But some issues need to be left for the next election cycle", said new SP member, Sunjay Dutt.

No no, you dont get it! Its a ploy to bring back Amitabh Bachhan in come-back roles and make Lal Bad-ass Shah sequels. See, Amar Singh in power and then Shilpa Shetty back in Big B's arms with Dhanno ki aankh saraabi re humka laage. Brilliant,no?

"However, please note that it's not a ploy to bring back cargo pants." - or any other good thing.

@gomes: That sounds scary. Specially the part about Shilpa Shetty.

@HP: Well, the manifestos are not supposed to say anything meaningful. That's their purpose.
