Hi A:
>The bridege-builders were not necessarily hindus, why did you ask to "shed >some >hindu nationalism" when the work was appreciated? :) Is it because >it happened >somewhere in India? *** Who was talking about bridge-builders ? The reference is entirely from the ten deductions on cm's probable responses to a probable set of EVEN 1km span bridges replaced in nine hours by a team of ingenious, newly emergent desi engineers, managers and installers: >1. it was a election publicity stunt by govt >2. no minorities were given chance to be labour >3. its all a fake, everything from india is a fake >4. its a conspiracy against assam (as usual) >5. why 140 yr old bridge was there in first place >6. has anyone done a audit of cost incurred >7. its delhis fault! (as usual) >8. it proves india is a sectarian country >9. St. louis under your guidance did a 10km bridge in 2 hrs. >10. incite a tangential flamewar to hide the original issue No doubt most of the above deduced and praphrased from CM's recent annalyses of the Prabhu's premises and promises of digging a necklace of 'nardamas' ( drains) around India's neck and other vulnerable parts, a not too well camouflaged hindu-nationalist scam. c-da :-) At 2:58 PM -0500 9/26/03, Alpana B.
