One day Rajotsava

Dear Mr Guv ThaKur ,
You are from the far far away desert state of Rajasthan , So i have assumed you are not enlightened on the importance of Rajyostava to the people of Karnataka . Today we do a plethora of activities , so I am requesting you to kindly grant another day holiday for us to get over today's hangover .
Starting off the day , we dress up young school children in funny costumes and make them to calisthenics in front of yawning politicians in big defunct stadiums . The children are predictably very tired after .
We also utilize the opportunity to worship Rajkumar at ever street corner (well almost every corner) . We hope to invoke the blessings of this long dead hero (we shall pray for your well-being also). We also undertake massive bike and car rallies sporting our huge flag . The lesser said about the autorick's the better .
The chief minister also distributes the Rajyotsava Award to some 50 (Nepotism , crony ism rules the roost) odd people , Some deserving , some not (Kannada Movie producers for example) .
Bangalore is also the IT/BT capital of India , The numerous companies fearing broken window panes , burning effigies of MD's also declare the day off .

So Mr Guv I firmly believe one day celebration of Rajyotsava is not even remotely enough for this humble state , So please declare tomo a holiday .

Cheers (Like minded people of Karnataka) !!
