Bluffington Post !!! - SONaIA Gandhi listed!!!


The recent post on HuffPost (Huffington Post) listing the richest leaders around the globe created quite a flutter in the Indian political circus ring. 

The report published by the renowned publication house listed Sonia Gandhi (Chairperson of the UPA) as having a net worth of 20 Billion USD (no, the 2 Billion USD was a typo, which the post apologized for). She was ranked 12th in the list. 

The report put Sonia Gandhi over all global stalwarts including the Queen Elizabeth, the Shaikhs of Oil-rich Middle East and Dictators in Africa. The list had the potential to alter global equilibrium. 

 Sharad Pawar was seen shedding onion tears and complaining about the veracity of the list as his name did not figure in there. 

David Cameroon and Barack Obama filed a petition in the World Bank to direct India to provide financial aid to the unstable global economy, in the light of new developments. 

The BJP was planning to have a field day. The Congress media whip immediately swung into action. Manish Tewari immediately set up a press conference to castigate the Huffington Post list stating that it was absolutely non holistic in approach and hinted at vested interests being involved towards monetarily influencing a fourth estate enterprise. Similar sentiments were echoed by Shashi Tharoor, Jairam Ramesh, Mani Shankar Aiyar etc. . Diggy Raja in his trademark style,"This does prove that Congress has been a wealth creating Government." Before any further damage, he was silenced. 
The Government directs CBI to investigate the sources of the information regarding this list

The BJP swung into action and how!!! They booked the Ram Lila grounds and set up a huge public extravaganza to be addressed by Narendra Modi. Grand arrangements were in order, huge crowds expected. This was going to be the trump card for BJP to come to power. They need to act fast to cash on this report. 

CBI under the Government's order and in an environment of Governmental non interference, probes the Huffington Post, demanding to see the sources of the information. This was the breakthrough that Congress desperately wants. Sonia Gandhi is meanwhile incommunicado and Rahul Baba is trying to figure out the number of zeros in Mamma's riches


The global pressure has started mounting on India now. The UN is planning a sanction on any further aids to be provided to the country. Congress desperately needs a way out.
 Whom does it turn to now?
But of course, the one and only Sharad Pawar. Pawar is summoned to New Delhi and given the task of clearing this mess. He flies to the US to settle this matter. 

Next day, Huffington Post issues a clarification. The list prepared was sourced; among other parameters like National GDP, Poverty Rates etc: a third party company (www.tehelka.com).
The post issues an apology to this effect. Sonia Gandhi's name came in erroneously, they mention with a promise of issuing a new list. 

The world is waiting with a bated breath to see who is the richest leader of them all!!!

 The new list has some Antonia Edvige Maino instead of Sonia Gandhi. 

Rahul Gandhi, Manish Tewari and Diggy Raja hold a press conference to announce that Sonia Gandhi is completely and holistically absolved of any wrong doing and that the speed of Congress' progress is at par with Jupiter's escape velocity!!!
