who is also the crown prince of his country, called Komaaaaali Modi yesterday (20th August) and conveyed his countrys wish to contribute 100 million USD (Rs 700 crores) for the purpose of flood relief and reconstruction in Kerala.
Komaaaaali Modi has tried to keep this matter a secret till now. In such a time when Kerala is in need of substantial funding and has expressed its need repeatedly for an aid package, the centre might have been expected to immediately convey the news of this gesture from abroad immediately to Kerala and advise the finance ministry to make immediate arrangements to transfer the donation to the CMDRF set up for the purpose.
But, the komaaaaali is a bandit (and not so wise a bandit), is he not ?
By not conveying the news to the Kerala govt so far, he responded like a bandit would as his motives need to be suspected. In any case, komaaaaali Modi has long proven himself to be a man unworthy of trust.
However, the komaaaaali is also rather dumb. He imagined in his foolishness that there is no way other than through him for news about the UAE princes decision to reach Kerala !
Unfortunately for the Komaaaaali, one of the malayali businessmen in the UAE happens to be very close to the crown prince and was told about his decision by the prince yesterday evening. The news was then conveyed straight to the Kerala CM. Pinarayi Vijayan waited till this morning for the komaaaali to convey the matter to the Kerala govt.
But when that did not happen, Vijayan understood that the bandit in Modi might be at work. He effectively checkmated Modi by promptly calling a press conference and announcing the news !!!
The komaaaaali, who had earlier made a big show of *inspecting* the situation in Kerala from an aircraft (drawn face, thick lips protruding, bulging eyes bulging even more..) and had solemnly announced an *enhanced* relief package of Rs 500 crores as though the money came from his rexctum, is now left with the mortification of seeing a single donation from a single foreign country (big donations from other countries are on the way) outstripping the sum total of the aid Kerala has so far got from the central govt !
