Read the first paragraph of the above story on which you are commenting... ======================================== Congress sources told rediff.com late on Thursday night that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is putting the maximum pressure possible on Congress party president Sonia Gandhi to go ahead with the India-US nuclear deal. ==========================================
A PM who wants someone else to do the deal for him, is a PM who will ASK before resigning... that's why only the threats, not the actual resignation...

Hmm...so rediff is the credible news source you want to quote to make your point?
Well....PM is not a stand alone dictator. In a political democracy, for any country, any PM, any number of seats....has to consider/adhere and subscribe to political equations !! It doesn't indicate weakness....it is the trait of party based democracy. The current PM's predicament comes from a fractured mandate that we have given. It doesnt come from his party.
