Sidramya has become such a disgusting cheap-rate bluffer that he can be called the mythological Uttara Kumara ! Joker !
If Cong comes again and Siddu becomes, then people can expect birthday celebration of Afzal Khan at our cost. Also, Tipu's people will keep target killing of innocent people with his full blessings.
Play well with Muslim interest.. We knew, you have good hope in that
BJP rule will make Cong to retain their power
