Who is the ABV-lookalike in these recent cartoons on RaGa? Couldn't figure it out myself.

My guess is Janardan Dwivedi. Prima facie, doesn't make sense for ABV to be there however, considering the persistent rumors that ABV bailed out RaGa from a drug possession case in Boston airport once long ago during NDA-1, maybe its apt too...

Makes sense that it is Janardhan Dwivedi. He does have a resemblance to ABV. Thanks

^^^ :) If it is PC, the jaw needs to be a bit less prominent... looks like PC's face is not very cartoon-friendly... don't see a lot around.

what's with this fadnavis guy and his wife??

she attends an EJ event?? Even she cannot be so naive.

To "get" this "invitation", they would have had to pull multiple strings and make all sorts of compromises.

Apparently, Mrs. Fadnavis is getting a mobile app developed for booking & appointment scheduling (for inaugurations & participation for EJ events, of course). Via Twitter.

Both are to blame. Tasleema tends to do equal equal very often to keep the lutyens liberals in her corner (or atleast tries to).

Actually, Gauri Maulekhi now rings a bell in my head and I remember watching her rip apart a mullah in a debate about Bakra eid, she almost abused them and did not come across as a sickular. So may be she is actually a truly secular animal lover taking her love too far.

^^ It means "are you wearing the (Sabarimalai) garland?"

Btw, what's "hyacha"? Auto-correct or some word I've never heard of?
