And no this isn't satire. Its a post press conference report.
*Goa lawmakers slug it out; call each other hijras, bhadwas *Panaji: The political heat generated by the bizarre public clash between a Nigerian gang on the one hand, and police and locals on Thursday appears to have had Goa’s lawmakers frothing at the mouth. After an independent Opposition legislator Vijai Sardesai Thursday called the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) led coalition, a government of hijras (eunuchs) the BJP Friday responded by calling him a bhadwa (pimp) at a press conference at the party’s state headquarters. Seated on the dais in the conference room, surrounded by large images of BJP’s prime ministerial hopeful Narendra Modi, party president Rajnath Singh and aging party stalwart Atal Behari Vajpayee, power minister Mahadev Naik took the political discourse in the state to a new level by saying that Sardesai was indulging in “bhadwagiri”. “He has been indulging in bhadwagiri all the time. That is how Sardesai has made his money. If he calls us a government of hijras on a TV debate, our response is that Sardesai is a hijra. He has spent a lot of time with hijras,” Naik told the press conference. BJP legislator from Sanguem Subhash Phaldesai even went on to give the media an eloquent definition of the word bhadwagiri. “Bhadwagiri means doing unethical dealings for money using political influence,” explained Phaldesai. Sardesai had in a TV debate Thursday night, attacked the police and the government for not being able to react in time, after a gang of Nigerians blocked National Highway -17 and held traffic to ransom for hours, after one of their compatriots was murdered. "We legislators are not hijras. But this is a government of hijras," Sardesai had said.
