<b>Riots and the politics of discord</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Why do you suppose the Manmohan Singh government completely misjudged the mood of the country over the report of the Nanavati Commission into the 1984 riots? Over the last week, the government has been comprehensively embarrassed on the floor of the House. Its allies have turned against it. The media, by and large supportive of Dr Singh on most issues, have been bitterly critical. A Cabinet minister has been forced out of office. A Congress MP has been made to give up his chairmanship of a government body.
Most significant, the regime has damaged its reputation as a government that comprises decent people. The Prime Minister, in particular, has cut a sorry figure: appearing, at first, to go along with the shameful Action Taken Report (or Action Not Taken Report) and then bowing to public pressure and seeking the forgiveness of Parliament and of the country at large.

Government is ruling with slim majority and Congress is not in majority, its english media which failed to understand country's mood.
Majority of ministers are with long charge sheet which include rape, murders, ransom, dacoits etc but english media still call them decent people. English media is projecting Sonia and Manmohan as leader but in reality they are parasites of highest order.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->When the Nanavati report was presented, Congressmen believed that it would be greeted with the same response as all the other reports: a burst of media attention followed by a total lack of interest. Further, Congressmen genuinely believe that the Nanavati Commission was appointed by the last BJP government in an effort to embarrass the Congress. Thus, they were predisposed to be suspicious of the report even before it was presented.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Media tried everything but when Congress was so vocal about Gujarat why they are so shy about Delhi. Public is not fool, its a good slap on so called secular media and especially on son of Commie and Congress stooge Vir Singhvi.
