Bingo sat forlorn with his face tucked in the far corner , nor had he barked or wagged his tail since I had entered the room . His pedigree beef sticks lay untouched in his food bowl which was quite unusual . Concerned I nudged at his front paws “ what’s the matter mate ? “
Bingo Growled ..” Loyalty is for nothing ..no one cares “
’ Why , What’s wrong ?
Bingo .. ‘ They have an elephant , a lion but never a dog ..as an election symbol ‘ ‘ We represent loyalty , are man’s best friend and yet we cannot be on a ballot paper ‘ This is disgusting , it is humiliating .”
“ You know it Bingo , voters are never loyal and may be that is the reason the political parties avoid dogs “
Bingo ..” But a lumbering elephant ..that represents a slow and sluggish economy”
“ Elephants are revered animals in the south “
Bingo ..” But we are talking here about the North .. what about UP ?”
” Well UP there the mahout called “ Mayawati’ is revered “
Bingo .. “ Always knew you were a Mayawati fan .. ..if she had her way ‘ Mayawati’ would have been an election symbol !
“ Why not , that happens with popular netas and the aam aadmi can quickly identify with that image “
Bingo ..” sycophant that you are ..this country will go to dogs …oops sorry ..go to elephants , with voters like you around “
“ Cheer up ..today may be its the elephants Day but as they say ..’Every dog has his day “
Bingo ..” Oh well , did you see what does this paper say .. Election Commission orders all statues of Mayawati and Elephant to be covered “.. ..My Day has come !
