Dr. Singh, There may be many defaulters in Maharashtra but they are not contesing for presidential election. So dont justify the financial irregularities of Pratibha. A Head of the state ought to have clean image, intellect and should be a lot sensible as he/she has to interact eith other state-heads and represent the country. Pratibha seems to have none.
Also dont try to justify the nonsense uttered by your ministers and party-men. We know what stature Dr. Kalam has and the respect he commands.
You take care of your own chair and dont burden yourself by justifying these. Leave everything to Sonia, she 'll take care of this.
