Rahul Gandhi’s highest ambition revealed: Minister for Cursive Writing

Satirical take on Rahul Gandhi's immature outburst.

After slamming his own party’s ordinance to protect convicted netas, Rahul Gandhi barged into another press conference yesterday morning to reveal his one true ambition since childhood. While Digvijay Singh was entertaining reporters with a long, sometimes self-contradictory speech about Mr. Gandhi’s Prime Ministerial qualities, Mr. Rahul Gandhi walked in suddenly, rolled up his sleeves and said, “My dream is to be Union Minister… Minister for Cursive Writing.”

After expending some nervous energy in rolling up his pajamas as well, Mr. Gandhi continued, “I called up Digvijayji. I had some work with him. I asked him – ‘What are you doing?’ And he said ‘I am here meeting the press’. I asked him – ‘What are you talking about?’ He said – ‘You, of course.’ I asked him – ‘What?’ He, sort of, gave me the explanation.”

At this point, the Congress Vice President took a moment’s dramatic pause before speaking again. “He gave me the line. He gave me the political line that everybody will give you — the Congress will give you, the BJP will give you, everybody will give you. I will tell you what my opinion on myself is. My opinion on my chances as PM is that they are complete nonsense. I love those cute little Spanish cursive writing books and that’s all I love. I want to be Union Minister for Cursive Writing; and nothing else. That’s my opinion. My personal opinion on myself.”

And having said that, Mr. Gandhi promptly got up, rolled up Digvijay Singh’s kurta sleeves as well and left. “What Rahul ji has said is the most important thing,” Digvijay Singh said, as the doors of the hall closed behind Mr. Gandhi. “Rather than what’s happened in the last ten years of UPA rule, we should go by what Rahul ji has just said,” he said. After some thought, Mr. Singh added, “We might bring an ordinance to enforce what Rahulji just said.”

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh having returned from the US was quick to applaud Mr. Gandhi’s bold move and praise his vision. The PMO tweeted this on the PM’s behalf – “Too many ppl hv bad hndwriting. Gr8 move! Will be hppy 2 b Rahulji’s driver’s driver’s maid’s gardener in his new role!”
