Has Mr Man Mohan Singh ever said some one is bad in his ministry? He is so soft spoken and nice. He can not say harsh words but though lifing poor is good and necessary, at the same time they also need to be taught the reality and responsibility. Our governments keep sugar coating them for the sake of power everytime. When do you make then to learn their resposibility rather than just sharing wealthy as a right?
