Mr. Singh, the most taciturn PM, India ever have, after P.V.Narasimha Rao may become voluble overnight and interact media to try to put down the impasse UPA-II is facing but the imminent danger of growing public abuse on the govt. is embrassing for any democratic government. As Mr. Singh interacted with a host of editors on 5th june, mere his strong body language and confidence is not enough to prove his honesty and political correctness. He must know that such schmoozing act will be of no help until PMO will perpetually act under the instructions from 10 Janpath.
The political impediment of a aligned government is palpable but the growing hysteria among all classes of public can not be ignored. If he has no personal interest to the post, should not he resigns? Too many times he has been blamed as a weak, in-masque and puppet prime minister. If his cabinet colleague, Mr. Murli Deora, textile minister, asks for leave from central cabinet, on the ground of being too old actually seemed to stem from his stint as petroleum minister, stained and stink of corruption charges in the CAG report, why not Mr. Singh steps down as it is expedient now to resign. He needs to be a “man” and take decision on its own and not on the behest of other man or woman.
Mere pontification and schmoozing is not enough at such instances when public is in great pain by sky rocketing of petrol, diesel, LPG and edible prices. Moreover govt. besets public by arguing shamelessly showing the losses oil companies brunt. Is there anyone from the cabinet judging the turbulence public has to face due to such price hike. One after one subsidies are being evaporated from each and every product. In a welfare state these unjust by power may prove drastic in days to come both for the govt. and the society.
