**** I don't know Umesh. I thought hard, but hadn't a clue.

  Why ? Perhaps YOU can explain to us why.  Ram stayed the heck steer 
clear of this one.

But I think you really called  whats-his-name by the fitting epithet 
of    "sock of mud".

I tell ya, there are terrorists everywhere . Even in Rajasthan. 
Imagine that! I bet it is that ISI again. They are everywhere. Do you 
think the people of Rajasthan will forgive him and the Gujjars for 
terorizing the Maharani's peaceable kingdom?
