Gandhigiri:
To the Sri Ram Sena, and the other custodians of their own faith, whatever it may be:
FLOWERS: Get well soon Mamu. Tere ko bimaari ho gayela hai.. apna naak ke aage dikhta ich nahi hai. Tere ko Valentine Day nahi pasand to nahi manane ka.. baaki log ka pachda mein padne ka nai.
मामू, तेरे को बीमारी हो गयेला हैं। अपना नाक के आगे कुछ दीखता इच नही हैं। तेरे को Valentine Day नही पसंद तो नही मनाने का। बाकी लोग के पचडे में पड़ने का नही।
Translation: faith is a personal matter. You are free to do your own interpretation. you are NOT free to interpret it for anyone else.
Edited to add: I am not the only one who believes in Gandhigiri.. a group on Facebook does too.. here is the url:
