BHOPAL: BJP MP from MP's Rewa constituency, 68-year-old Janardan Mishra, on Saturday gave a bizarre speech on love, marriage and mobile phones in the presence of Governor Mangubhai Patel . "I was thinking that people have started getting married online. Some 50-60 years later, when babies are born online, will these babies be made of steel or flesh and bones," he wondered, even as the Governor looked on.
Patel and Mishra were at the 60th anniversary celebration of Rewa Govt Engineering College. Those attending the event were taken aback by the MP's speech. Mishra expressed grave concern over the advancement of technology.
"All the work is now being done online," he remarked, and added: "Today we are celebrating the 60th foundation year. But 60 years into the future, will scholars be here as students? Will human beings still work as the dean, principal, professors or will there be machines?" He then went on to describe how mobile phones have entered the bedrooms of married couples. "Maine kabhi kissi pati-patni ke bistar mein jhankne ka kaam nehi kiya.
Lekin log kahte hain, ki jab pati aur patni bistar pe let te hain, toh ek mooh dakshin ke taraf toh dusre ka mooh uttar disha ki taraf hote hain. Aur mobile se mohabbat karke, ussi mein aahe bharte hain. (I have never tried peeping into the beds of husbands and wives.
But people say that these days when the husband and wife lay down on bed, one of them faces south and the other north. They sigh to their mobiles)." Not stopping h.
