Yesterday, following an earlier post, I asked Sonia (not Gandhi) to comment on the outgoing government’s use of negative PR that effectively caused a ‘black Monday’ in India’s stock market.

Q: The Wall Street Journal report (by an India Today editor) said two communist parties in the coalition are expected to ‘put their regressive stamp on economic policy’ of Sonia’s government. How ‘regressive’ do you think this is going to be?
A: These people don’t want secularism to replace their fanaticism. So they are going to any lengths to convince the voters that the Congress isn’t good enough and what better way to do it than thru’ the financial markets.

Sonia is surrounded by the best financial experts and lawyers, like Dr. Manmohan Singh (father of Liberalisation etc), Chidambaram etc who will make the financial decisions for her. Sonia Gandhi may be of foreign origin but she has Indian politics in her blood…The Congress has ruled India for years before and we didn’t do badly. Suddenly all this panic, only reflects the frustrations of the out-going party

People here, despite laptops and mobiles etc, have a very warped sense of thinking.
It is unbelievable how parties have used different platforms to target the Gandhi’s. One idiot says she will shave her head, sleep on the floor, wear white etc. if Sonia is sworn in. But she failed to react to a 10yr old boy being killed by her own alliance member to raise funds for his political campaigns. And these people claim to be more ‘Indian’ than Sonia Gandhi. Unbelievable.

Q: Is Sonia so anti-business?
A: Congress is not being influenced by the left parties, but yes they are drawing something up called the Common Minimum Program, which will consider all views and decide what’s best for the country. It is being drawn up by top leaders who have great records as Financial Ministers in the past. NO. THE CONGRESS IS NOT ANTI-BUSINESS.
