ManMohan and Golden Silence

When was the last time you heard the honorable PM spoken on any issue facing the nation? At least I fail to recall. Except, of course the last press conference, if he did speak at all!!!

Clearly no one can claim that he/she knows for sure what is going on in his Heart and Head. Perhaps Madame Sonia? The PM has maintained an enigmatic silence through out his two years in power. He has rarely expressed his views on any matter concerning governance; an objective study of the past events reinforces this perception that he is there just to keep the seat warm for the member of “FAMILY”.

His tenure started with the formation of his illustrious cabinet. Such towering “Statesmen” Laloo, Shibu Soren, Taslimuddin, Jai Prakash Yadav, M A Fatami and many more. Congress men/women who had recently lost their elections. Start was all but auspicious.

Shibu Soren episode.
Minister in the govt.accused with murder charge chased by police armed with an arrest warrant goes under ground after meeting the Home Minister.
PM response: Nil.

Bofors kick back release
Both PM and Sonia denied that they were involved. Worst PM said he did not know
Arjun Singh, Ramdoss, Meera Kumar, Bihar Assembly Fraud on constitution, Goa Episode, Jharkhand Assembly Fraud, Office Of Profit controversy and the Sonia Bachao7 Proposed Ordinance etc.etc.On none of the above mentioned issues our wise PM took the people in confidence and spoke.

Ostensibly, the decision of Sonia to nominate Man Mohan as PM was to manage the Govt.and political party as two entities and in an effective way. Yet this has not worked out. Government and the governance is nowhere near the satisfactory level even. Sprilling price rises and an economy of shortages has severely affected the image of PM as an economist. On the political front Sonia too has nothing to claim credit for, this despite her minions repeated eulogies of her “REUNICATION”.

The UPA is United (Laloo vs. Paswan, Left vs. Congress, NCP vs. congress) Progressive (Really what with reservations, price rise, farmers suicide, putting all much needed disinvestments on hold, repealing POTA when all the nations are making stringent laws against terrorism) Alliance (post elections for only sharing the loot and keeping BJP away from power). UPA can do better with a name as Unholy Perverts Association.

Time is not on the side of Man Mohan. He has to demonstrate that he is what people believed he was. People’s trust in him is eroding faster than he realizes.

A word for caution Dear PM, Congressmen and women are not known for being benevolent any body else than the “FAMILY” and pull the carpets under the feet of any body whom they feel as dispensable. Remember Sita Ram Kesri and more recently Natwar Lal, OOPs… Natwar Singh.
