Jay's oeuvre

A bit of jazz in blog, however, falls tremendously short of being a musical

Laloo ji : The prince and the pauper..

11:00am .. phone call. I was asleep .. and soon classes were to follow. geez!!!! the phone.

Himanshu : aur kya bol rahen hain laloo ji.. mile ya nahin. (So, what's Laloo saying.. did u meet him or not).

and the phone calls kept pouring for the whole day. This would be the story of each student in the campus.

Laloo is such a phenomenon for media. His rustic image and his funny comments are despised by the so called elite and celebrated by others at the same moment. Whatever u say .. u just cant ignore this guy.Now, he is the Railway Minister and under him the ailing Railways have seen a turnaround in its financial fortunes. There is a case study under Prof. Raghuram on this turnaround. Laluji was called on to share his experience in managing Railways.

I had my classes and only 50 students were allowed into the class room for a healthy discussion to take place(selection: on 1st come 1st basis.) I had missed out on that. Adding to this, there was a 120 page case to be read and presented b4 the faculty and then faculty selected 4 ppts for the D day (too much pain tha yaar!!!!).

The usual story u can listen from all the places I will give some inside the class insights.

In the class room :

(The gal in there is Sachi.. and (in the right pic) there is Ashok(aka chhui mui) and Manish (aka BoBs i call him Boobs).

Lalooji was flanked by two of his Railway officers, who were to deal with technical aspects.

There were too many ppl in the class room. Prof. asked some of them to leave. When they didn't buzz. Prof. asked Lalooji "if they are among the ones who were included in the list to attend".

Laloo: aye!! chalo jao .. bola na. baad mein baat kar lena (hey! go.. i said go. get in touch later.)
some of them were top rung officials in Railways.

discussion continued, presentation, technical stuff on how the unit cost has decreased, is this a turnaround and stuff.

Most intriguing part : Prof. Raghuram's Hindi and Lalooji's interpretation of Raghuram's English.

lmao. Prof. Raghuram ain't proficient in Hindi and Laloo ji is not the most adept in English speaking.

Some Q was asked by Prof. Lalooji obv. didn't understand. He gets up to answer.
Prof R : sir, its ok you can answer from there.
Lalooji : Baith ke bhi koi padhata hai kya. yahan padhane aaye hain. (who teaches .. in standing position.I have come here to teach.)

Lalooji was tucked in those little microphone in his color. Asst: mic is fit. you can speak now.

Lalooji: but where is the mic. (gesturing by holding his hand as if he is holding those big mics on hand while his speaches.)

giggles.

Lalooji says thanks to all .. how gr8 he felt etc and finished by thanking all.

An IAS elbows him consistently (they have been slipping in notes as to what is to be said throughout his speach). Lalooji: "kya hai"

IAS: sir, u forgot the director. Lalooji: " oh haan .. thank you director sahab also"

Quote : I only patted the right people for their work and didn't interfere.

Later, in press conf. someone asked :"sir, had u not been leader what do u think u would have been"

Laloo : "kya bakwaas hai .. leader nahin hote to leader hote" ( bull crap, had i not been leader, i would have been a leader)

journalist: "sir,... but still"

Lalooji: "ye koi sawaal hai. jab main bakri charata tha to leader tha. jab main guy charata tha to leader tha. college mein leader aur ab bhi leader ... aur itne saalon ke baad poochhte ho leader nahin hota to.. Leader hota"

( is this a Q!!!!!, when i used to goad goats and cows i was a leader. I was a leader in college. I am a leader now.. and after so many years u ak me if i wasn't a leader.. I wd have been a leader"

Jay: " hahahaha"
