[Goanet] Parivarting: BJP netas go free in Governor car attack case
Everyone in Goanet knows who 'goes off the tangent' while responding to messages to Goanet, therefore I'm never taken by surprise with your Atypical responses. Your intentions of diverting issues are also well known and one can verify this fact even in present case (exchange of messages are appended here below). I also know that you go off the tangent when you don't have right answers!! (Do recheck all your previous messages sent to Goanet.) Everyone knows how good are your 'n' numbers of responses to most messages appearing in Goanet. Members also know how and why you are targeting certain messages with your Atypical English and your crooked style of raising responses to those messages. U. G.

I repeat, you don't worry about my foot or my pants, but do take care of yours. First, you have not clarified anything on the points raised by me. May be because you have no answers to it!
