CBI cracks pink puzzle

New Delhi. For the last couple of days, Indian markets all over where missing something which is the biggest turn on for girls. All of sudden the textile market seemed to be out of stock for pink apparels. Name anything, from caps to socks, from purses to pants, and it was not available in the color 'pink'.

As per the National Sample survey organization, the sale of anti-depressants went up like anything in the last couple of days and women buyers accounted for like 99.99% of it. On a similar note, a study conducted at AIIMS revealed that multitude of women came in for psychiatric assistance complaining of severe depression. Numerous cases of women fainting were seen in CP, Palika Bazaar and Rajouri.

Amazed by the turn of events, the chairman of National Commission for Women(Maoist), Rakhi Sawant had made an appeal for an CBI inquiry to be made in this regard. She had also approached the PMO seeking a relief package of 5000 Cr to fill in for the shortage of Pink apparels. She had also demanded that 100% FDI in single brand should be implemented in a mission mode so that global giants like Versace, Giordino and Gucci can help India to recover from the pink crisis.

But as per the latest developments, the mystery has been solved. CBI has revealed in it's report that the reason behind these unfortunate series of events that almost brought the female population of the country on the verge of extinction, was the demand pull of Pink cloth in UP so as to cover all the Mayawati statues and her elephants. One UP official who did not want to be named told the media that there were so many statues and elephants that they had to cut supply to all other parts of India and used all the pink cloth available in the market. These set of events have attracted serious criticism from women sections across the world and has again highlighted the gender bias in India. The Election Commission has apologized and said it did not see this coming, but this is not enough to stop Rakhi Sawant who plans to sue the Election Commission.
