- Though SP extended the support, Amar Singh deliberately created an environment wherein both BJP and Left would harden their stances. This would leave UPA at the mercy of SP.
And SP succeeded in that and how !!!
Antony & Co "should not have been allowed to speak" on Nuclear Deal and the role of Left at this crucial juncture.
Only the PM and UPA Chairperson should have been allowed to offer public comment. There should have been a gag on others speaking on the subject out of turn.
Again, the PM should have been careful while talking to journalists aboard the aircraft.
I strongly believe the PM was a little indulgent with his words. He showed a political naievity that was should have been avoided at any cost at this point of time.
Sonia Gandhi maintained a dignified silence that was so essential at this moment trying to carry all constituents of UPA along.
But Antony and few others and above all the PM has ruined a situation that was so delicate already.
The political communication management is really really bad.
Sad for UPA.
But the fact is if you play a bad innings, you deserve to lose.
And last few days have been a bad innings for UPA.
[ Please note I am touching only the Public Relation part of the crisis.]
