मोदी जी देश के “अंकल पोड्जर” है। जो किसी काम को आरंभ करते है लेकिन अंत में वह काम बुरी तरह बिगड़ जाता है। फिर दोष औरों को देते है।

मोदीजी ,अंकल पोड्जर का “Role Play” कर रहे है इसलिए ही वो RBI, वित्त मंत्रालय, सरकार, जनता, बीजेपी व किसान को परेशान करने पर तूले हुए है।

यह अंकल पोड्जर हर घर में, हर व्यवसाय में घुसकर सबका नुकसान कर रहा है। फिर भी वो आत्म मुग्धता का शिकार है कि उससे अच्छा कोई नहीं है।

“अंकल पोड्जर” ने एक फोटो टाँगने के उद्देश्य से दिवार में एक कील ठोकने के चक्कर में पूरी दिवार में ही छेद कर दिए। फोटो भी डेढ़ी ही टाँगी।
