    If Modi or Shah was singing, the lyrics would change into Fekuism. And the bakths would also agree and believe.

    Finally..... enlightened to sing a song at Ganeshotsava.... Good sign to become a normal citizen.... A politically overthrown person will finally surrender to God which he used to criticise always while in power.... Pl continue and this will lead to a good life without any tension and gives peace of mind always...

    I always heard that he is a good human being and approachable by all, above all non-corrupt. So what he is politician and lost recent election...nothing can take away his Zest and Zeal by participating in social celebration being a humble and social personality!! Keep it up MR. Rai!! You will win next time for sure looking at the work of your successor!!

    Ronald D, Udupi,

    For many CONgressmen ignorance is a virtue...I have an assignment to you....Go to Vittla, Bantwal and Mangalore Bundar Police Stations and read all FIR registered from 1975 to 1985....you will find very interesting names....

    Both your favourites Rai and Sorake have interesting history....you can talk to Vijay Kumar Shetty, former Surthkal MLA and Rai's roommate in hostel....I am sure you will be enlightened after that and stop writing this crap again...

    Want more???...

    Langool, pl do not think what u know is truth and rest all is crap! Though I was teenager, I was with u in Congress camp working for Oscar early 80’s before joining MIT mid 80’s and I know all politicians u mentioning........! Do u think current BJP lot any better? I was never into hardcore politics anyway! That does not deny me a right to comment if u hate some politicians or political party! U have no right to call my opinion a crap! Be a gentleman being in US!

    Over the years observing your comments I know you by now! Show me a MLA who has done better work than Sorake in Undevided DK! Easy to criticise and make fun while talking on FIRs on others! Do not be biased based on your your thinking process!

    I can only say you don't know them(Rai and Sorake) well...that's why you believe in their 'Topi Drama'....

    I know them from their roots...in and out...Never mind you... are entitled to your opinions and me mine...

    Well BJP guys are saints? Absolutely not...they could be worse than these Crooks too...
