Comments on PMs mumblings.................

The Prime Minister at last graced us (!!) all by agreeing to ask a few choice questions asked by a collection of hand picked TV editors (mostly his chamchas, note that the press which is more inquisitive was not invited). As usual, he mumbled his way through the session. Some of the 'low (high)lights of his monologue with my cryptic comments are given below;

We are here to govern effectively - PM! please look up the meaning of the word 'Govern'. Anyway, what we need is someone who will lead us to become a superpower, and not someone who would just Govern. Even that you cant do, since you dont even know the meaning of the word

Committed to economic growth but we have no control on international events - True. You have NO CONTROL over ANYTHING

Food inflation should fall to no more than 7 per cent by March.- Pray! Which March? And is an inflation of 7% even acceptable? How many times in the past have you given deadlines like this, just to slunk away when nothing happened?

We should not weaken the self-confidence of Indians - The self confidence of Indians are so high that some of them, who sit with  you in your cabinet, brazenly loots the country to the tune of few thousands of crores. If that is not self confidence, then what is?

Parliament has not been allowed to function in the last session for the reasons I can't understand but we are making an honest effort to make sure that the Budget session is successful - You cant understand why the Parliament is not allowed to function? You must be daft, as every Indian other than you know why. It is because, my dear MMS, your colleagues have looted thousands of crores, and everyone wants to know the truth, which you are hell bent on preventing from coming out.

We shall prevail and provide our country an effective government - Like that past 7 years? God help my country 

•Raja had assured me that he was transparent in the 2G spectrum allocations - And you believe him? What do YOU THINK? We are not interested in what a criminal like Raja thinks.

2G licences allocations were not discussed with me. The decisions rested with A. Raja - Of course. No one discusses with poor papa anything. They all discuss with Sonia, who take a big cut.

We must get rid of corruption from every walk of life, be it judiciary or the government - We should get rid of you and your Government at the earliest.

I conveyed my concerns over 2G allocation to Raja through letters - And when he went ahead and disregarded your concerns, you locked yourself up in the toilet?

PPP model to usher in new wave of infrastructure reforms - So true. Only, PPP do not mean Public Private Participation, but Public money for Private Prosperity

I am not afraid of appearing before PAC or even a JPC. - Then, why were you adamant about not constituting the JPC?

I have never thought of resigning. I have a job to do - Hang on. Hang on. Ask someone to give you a Fiddle, which you can play while the Country is burning.

•PM hints at blackmail by BJP, says that he was asked to get charges against a Gujarat minister dropped or face personal attacks - I never knew MMS had such a weird sense of humour. I can imagine BJP going up to PM and blackmailing him. If they did so, why didnt you have them arrested? Last heard Black Mail is a serious cognisable offence in this country. It is not that. He doesnt have anything to attack Modi

This has been a great learning experience for me - At what cost? A few lakh crores?
