Sitaramji!Dr singh is stressed out a lot and getting sandwiched between his high command & his urge to satisfy his own self on one hand & criticism by opposition parties which holds some water atleast,on the other hand.He is thoroughly confused and appears to have been making an introspection as to why at all he came to plitics against his very conscience and half heartedly.As you said,undoubtedly,he is the most qualified politician in the entire world,but Indian politics have no place for such well mannered people without manueovoring and manipulative bilities.Here,in India politics,as the proverb says,politics is the resort of a scoundrel.It is not a fit field for people like Dr Singh who,like Narsimha Rao who too was like Dr Singh only,cannot adapt him self to the present day manipulative politics and fit in that grue.Unfortunately or fortunately for that matter,Dr Singh could not imbie this from his political mentor-Rao.I agree with you that this is not the right time for him putting down the papers.Opposition parties will surely wildly publicise it as an act of cowardice and admittance of his incompetence.Sitaramji!Kindly donot be under the impression that Dr Singh is a power monger to re-enter politics when he feels it is convenient to him.Except for his weakness of being faithful to Congress,he is a virtuous man with least priority for pomp or positions. Yes, it would have been better had he obtained consensus before proceeding in the matter,but will it be possible?
