Arrey, the police officers who were transferred were 100 per cent responsible men. They even very strictly told those from our side who created nanu-motu trouble not to throw gas cylinders around and burn houses of traitors because it was bad for image of state — and besides, Gujarat needs every gas cylinder it has to fuel its development.

Then there are many mannas, men, in my own party who waiting to see the back of me and are busy carrying tales to Dilli about how I am fighting with them. Arrey bhai, bey hath vagar kahin tali parey? — it takes two to make a quarrel. What can I say if 5.5 crore Gujaratis point to me and say, aa manas sauthi vadhu saro chhe — this man is best of all? What can I do, tell me? Let Keshubhai tell me. Let that Gordhan Zadafiabhai tell me, let that Suresh Mehtabhai tell me? I, to my greatest misfortune, happen to be a ujjar gamman erando pradhan — a hero among zeros. What can I do about that, tell me?

But, mark my words, we will overcome. The moment of reckoning is again drawing closer. Last time, we won 127 seats and 49.85 per cent of amaru Gujarat’s votes. This time we will do even better. Man hoyey to malve jawai, where there’s will, there’s way — rather, where there’s Namo’s will, there’s Namo’s way, and no putri of Italy can snatch my certain victory from me.

Meanwhile, bhaiyo aney beheno, have a great Dussehra. Hope you enjoyed the disco dandiya during navratras. I had new lyric for dandiya dance this time. See, dance like this and sing with me:
