You do make a lot of sense. Your statements point to the fact that you are doing the right sort of things to take care of the problems. The steps you say that you are taking are the right ones, the sane ones.
But you should remember that you are ruling a country not only of sophisticated intellectuals who look at a situation, thoroughly analyze what is happening and then chose the most appropriate course of action; but illiterates, semi-literates, wishful-thinkers, dreamers, arm-chair heroes and the like. In fact the majority of people fall in that category.
These people would suggest that if you are walking down a dark street at night and a robber jumps in front of you and asks for your money you should "thulp" him up and take "his" money bollywood style. If you don't do it then you are not a man, ignoring the fact that you are risking the 500 Rs in your pocket for the stab that you are going to get that will put in the hospital for the next 1 month or even cause you to say goodbye to your family for ever.
The best way to please this crowd, which I should add is the majority of the population of this country, is to crack some high profile corruption cases to show that your government is doing something exciting to address the problem currently on the nations mind.
Sadly this is where your mindset as a manager and a technocrat fall woefully behind that of a showbiz politican such as Laloo Prasad. So Congress will

An apt analysis, however, you are missing the point. He has not shown any resolve to come clean, no visible action (no one asking him to shout from roof top) that could send the message. In fact, during his entire tenure, every new scam was bigger than previous one. Such ineffectiveness! He is not a professor in a university, he is CEO of this country and if same rules apply, he could have been shown the door long back. His most of the answers are typical response of a babu in govt office, who sat thru all scams to save his chair, now trying to justify his failures

Well said. He makes a "lot of sense" when asked - "There is a perception that Sonia Gandhi is deciding everything and you are helpless"
He replied - "Whatever this government has done, I will accept full responsibility. I never felt that she was an obstacle in the performance of the government. My relations with her have never been better. I meet her every week."
i.e. I meet her every week where she tells me what to do. BUT if something goes wrong, obviously it is MY neck on the line... ;-)
Never once he dared to say that it is I, MANMOHAN SINGH, who takes the decisions... :)

BTW, Kaangress WILL get a worst drubbing in the next election... and we all know WHY.... :)
It is clear that whether our esteemed PM opens his mouth or keeps it shut, nothing worth while ever happens. He nows has finally opened his mouth in front of selected media persons who are instructed not to create trouble for him with difficult questions. But the entire nation knows that price rise is happening for years now under his congress government. he has lost the Moral value of leading the country. He is leading India into abject corruption, misrule and poverty. The poor can't even feed their families.
The contents of the lecture are known to all. PM has to use his power to handle any issue on developement angle. Reasoning can be done by anybody.Where there is a will there is a way. Last 7 years nothing concrete was done than corruption and atleast nest 3 years do something for developement of nation.
Please allow me to do the " Unfinished Job" which are in my top priorities are as follows.
1. To ensure all the middle class are in the category of Lower Class.
2. People fight against people for Money, Food, and Drop of water.
3. People have to pay the residential tax as the country is Sold to Foreigners.
4. Existing Lower class will be either pushed Below Below Poverty line or make them to commit suicide.
5. I have an Unfinished agenda looking at the current Rate i would achieve this objective by the end of 2014. The Target is to earn and deposit in Foreign banks.
6. Last but since iam nominated nobody has any moral Authority to question me. Please ask these queries to the Elected representatives.
7. INDIA is growing @ 9% GDP you need to contribute more to increase our fund position. Hence all go back to business and mind your work.
I am deaf, dumb and mute. I am lame duck. I am too old to even stand on my feet. I am just not aware of any scams that has happend in india ( You see I am blind, what proof you want), I am unable to take any decisions as my hands are tied, I am a mere toy. I hope the general public understands me, and do not ask me to leave this chair, as, it is stuck to me like a glue.
