Tavleen Singh,Indian express columnist

Mrs.Tavleen singh wrote a column in The Indian express exhorting the real leadership of Mr.Manmohan singh and criticizing Mr.Advani for lack of leadership. I am a great admirer of Mrs.Tavleen Singh and have been reading her columns for more than 15 years. She writes columns with lots of common sense, after hard work and great reporting. This column is totally disappointing and She could have done better,I mean much better.
In her zeal to promote Mr.Manmohan Singh, she sold herself short. She is worried that these MPs who showed the bundles of money that they say was received as bribe disgraced the "temple of democracy"-that is Lok Sabha.It is not these MPs that digraced the democracy,but it is the Congress party and its new ally that disgraced India. Let us not close our eyes and think that all the world is blind. She writes that one of the MPs took bribe before.What that has to do with what happened now.May be he did and that is why these leaders came with bundle of money to bribe him as he is easy to bribe.May be he is a changed man and wanted to expose these bribers! what about the other 2MPs? She says that that money did not look like one crore? Is it Ok if that bribe was few lakhs ,not one crore? She says that "the Video evidence was not conclusive.Let CNN-IBN show it ,and let people decide it. She was moved to tears when Mr.Singh said that he did not have drinking water supply,no electricity,hospital or roads. After Mr.Rahul Gandhi's great Grand father,grand mother and father's rule,that is about 40 yrs of congress rule, there are lots of poor Sashikalas in India that did not have drinking water,electricity,hospital and roads. Everybody,in India and all over the world, knows who is real leader, and who is runnimg the country from behind the curtain.Let us not try to fool the world. Indian express could have done a favour by not publishing that column.
