I hear your speech, heard that it was your 'original' text, it was straight from your heart. Though I seldom, if ever, believe a politician, I take this one because I know you are an intellect and not a politician.
But, do you think that you are doing what you preach? You say war against poverty and war against terrorism. Are we fighting them at all? And what do you expect the people of India to do? When Mulayam calls SIMI a non-anti-national org, you sit quiet. When DMK releases chargesheeted terrorist, you sit quiet. When Pakistan blows up trains in Mumbai, you say you still want to talk. With this weakness, which country can fight terrorism? and what do you expect a common man to do? Are you making India strong enough
Now war on poverty - look at the number of farmer suicides. How are you going to solve them? With the 3rd grade Indira and Nehru etc etc yojajans? When you know better than most of us, that a major chunk of this assistance goes into your elephant like beaureucracy's pockets? Whom are you trying to fool? Anwyay, Happy Independence Day !
