I am really surprised the way comments are being posted about Mrs. Pratibha Patil. Most of the peaple are putting their ignorance about her as her fault.
Off course she had been a Governor of Rajastan since last 3 years, but when she was in active politics, she had distinction of being very clean and straght forward person. She was never in news for wrong reasons, and most important, she had never been considered Close to Gandhi Family, as blamed. Had been the case so, she would have become Chief Minister of Maharasta 25 years ago, but she had always climbed the ladder of success on the basis of her no-nonsence, low profile, straght forward and clean image.
Her name is not knew to the people who are interested in politics since last 25-30 years or more. So plz, plz and plz don't put the burden of your ignorance and lack of knowledge on her.
