The Left is seeing red and, curiously enough, so is the Right. See, Rahulbaba and Moanmoan Sing have led the Congress to a resounding, which, in terms of Indian politics means that party has more than 200 seats in the Lok Sabha. While the Congress celebrates its Lok Sabha triumph, the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) are busy with their shok sabhas, also known as Executive Committee and Central Committee meetings respectively.
Of course, there's been a whirligig of meetings between political parties in the Capital as well. But one that has taken place secretly but is of major import for the future of Indian polity was between the BJP and the CPI(M)'s supremos. Yes, Rajnut Sing and Prakash Carrot-And-Stick met at a dhaba near Gole Market and our intrepid reporter (who is a chaiwallah at the dhaba so he can earn an actual salary) listened in:

Rajnut: Comrade, glad you could make it. You must be really busy.
Carrot-And-Stick: Busy be damned. I had to escape the Politburo members who keep standing outside my office with hammers and sickles. Do you know how difficult it's to shimmy down the wall? As tough as running a Communist party in the 21st century.
Rajnut: Glad you could make it. Now, what do you want?
Carrot-And-Stick: A dalliance…
Rajnut: Ummm...I'm not really into that. Won't Brinda mind?
Carrot-And-Stick: Don't get your knickers twisted. Not that sort of thing – a political dalliance.
Rajnut: You mean an alliance?
Carrot-And-Stick: We can never ever have an alliance with a communal party that attacks minorities.
Rajnut: Sweet. So, what the Congress did to Sikhs in 1984 doesn't count?
Carrot-And-Stick: Don't twist my knickers. We can't do this openly but we need to come to an understanding. After all, we have a common enemy.
Rajnut: The Congress?
Carrot-And-Stick: No, the Indian voter. Dammit, Fidel and Li'l Kim have it easy.
Rajnut: And the rulers of Saudi Arabia and other theocratic states. But what's on your mind?
Carrot-And-Stick: We subvert the system.
Rajnut: You mean a revolution?
Carrot-And-Stick: No, no, we revolt Soniabai by constantly praising Moanmoan Singh so she gets suspicious and sics the Sicilian mafia on him, so he has to go for a quadruple bypass and Rahulbaba becomes the Prime Minister.
Rajnut: I see your point. Three years of Rahulbaba’s leadership and the Congress probably won't win an election in 10 Jan Path.
But we'll still be clueless and leaderless. How do we win the next election anyway?
Carrot-And-Stick: We do what the old Soviets did with their zombie leaders; pretend that our parties are being led by Vajpayee and Jyoti Basu, even if they are corpses by then.
Rajnut: Yes, yes. Makes sense.
Carrot-And-Stick: And we join forces.
Rajnut: Us together?
Carrot-And-Stick: Why not? Anything can happen in Indian politics. After all, we are two cadre-based, disciplined parties. I see the formation of the BJPI(M).
Rajnut: Why not.
Carrot-And-Stick: Why not. What do we have to lose anyway?
Rajnut: Exactly. Jai Shri Marx.
