I suppose the Congress party doesn’t want to shed its Muslim-appeaser image. So our Prime Minister has simply added more battery to his Baap ki Jaagir line. The justifications grow increasingly specious, proportionate to the desperation.

Unfazed by the BJP’s charge of Muslim “appeasement” and continuing with his recent tendency to confront political issues head-on, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh stood his ground to declare that his government is committed to “redressing imbalances and eradicate the inequities” that the Muslim community faces. [..]

And repeats ad nauseam, that

Some minorities in India have done better than others, he said, citing the example of Jains and Sikhs. “However, other minorities, especially the Muslim community in certain parts of our country, have not had an equal share in the fruits of development,” Singh said.

Agree. But ever ask why, or who is responsible for the pathetic conditions of Indian Muslims? And then there’s the other lie:

The only parallel to the practice of untouchability is apartheid…

So you go ahead and create newer and newer categories of “backwards” and then unleash Executioner Singh…

Dr. Singh is the living illustration of how good, decent academicians become courtiers.
