Over the past couple of weeks, one of the most popular messages, termed ‘NINE QUESTIONS ASKED’, has gone extremely viral across all social media platforms, and continues to be rampantly shared even on emails now across the Community – locally, nationally and even globally! Addressed to Ex-BPP Chairman, Dinshaw Mehta, ‘NINE QUESTIONS ASKED’ has been written by BPP Trustee Kersi Randeria in response to Dinshaw Mehta’s alleged relentless onslaught of false accusations and twisted truths which are used as diversionary tactics to keep the community misinformed about various issues, which are now catching up to him.
Seeing right through the unnecessary drama triggered frequently via an allegedly ‘fake’ supplement (which is actually a paid advertisement under the guise of a ‘news’ item, and unlike distribution of newspapers via conventional news-vendors, it is distributed only in Parsi colonies by ‘chokra boys’ paid to do the same) in one of the nation’s oldest newspapers, Kersi Randeria has directed a list of nine, very pin-pointed questions at Dinshaw Mehta, seeking answers. Apparently, these ‘nine pins’, which have been earlier asked across different forums at different points in time, are bound to prick and puncture a lot of untruths and manipulations, which is probably why, so far, no answers have been received by the otherwise over-active social media machinery employed by Mehta. Even though these ‘nine pins’ may or may not get any answers from Mehta, the questions attempt, and to a large extent, seem to have succeeded in un-pulling the wool over the Community’s eyes that has been allegedly woven by Mehta.
The following is a reproduction of the message:
