Bhai, what a bother!

The new-found camaraderie between Karat and BSP chief Mayawati is on a precarious footing, if the terms of endearment were any signal. At the press conference after the meeting of leaders from Left-UNPA-BSP-JDS-RLD organised at Mayawati8217;s residence, the BSP chief requested 8220;Bhai Mr Prakash Karat8221; to brief the media after the meeting. Whether Comrade Karat liked being called 8220;Mr8221; Karat is anybody8217;s guess, but the political circles jumped on the 8220;Bhai8221; that the UP Chief Minister had called Karat. That8217;s what she used to call BJP leader Lalji Tandon before he became Lalchi avaricious Tandon for her.
