MONOSYLLABIC ANSWERS AND GOLDEN SILENCES......

SCTV takes immense pride in bringing you an exclusive interview with Shri Manmohan Singh the honourable prime minister of India on the eve of the country's sixty fourth Republic day in the backdrop of the Justice J.S. Verma committee report and tragic death of the 23 year old brave heart some time back.........




# What are your first impressions on the contents of the Justice J.S. Verma committee report and it's far reaching recommendations?

* I am yet to read the report and have asked the home as well as law minister to answer this question.



# What are your views on the police brutality perpetrated on the peaceful protesters who had assembled in their thousands demanding justice and timely action against Nirbhaya's assailants?

* See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.



# In hindsight do you feel that you should have addressed the nation on this issue a lot sooner than you ultimately did?

* What to do, I did certainly want to address the nation a lot sooner, but my high command took that long to accord me the permission to speak on the issue for two and a half minutes.



# What are your views on the Verma committee's recommendations pertaining to the disqualification of MP's and MLA's charge sheeted for various sexual offences?

* Silence is golden.



# Do you think that the Verma committee is justified in demanding the revamping of the AFSPA (Armed Forces Special Powers Act)?

# The defence and home ministers will study these proposals in detail and respond at an appropriate time.



# The Verma Committee has lambasted both the police force and the government as well as other powers that be for their apathy and indifference towards the plight of the common man. Your views on the same?

* Meri chhupi hi mera jawaab hain.



# Will the recommendations of the Verma committee be acted upon in a time bound expeditious and judicious manner?

* We are yet to initiate internal deliberations on the recommendations made by the very same committee, requisite responses shall be framed after extensive and exhaustive deliberations.



The news anchor is almost at the end of his tether and is going ape at the monosyllabic answers forthcoming from his excellency the prime minister of India to all his queries, he however makes a renewed effort towards getting the prime minister to shed his reserve and reticence........



# So what message will you will be sending out to the nation on the occasion of it's 64th Republic day?

* Message what Message? I simply parrot the speech that my high command (read Ms. Sonia and Rahul Gandhi) clear.



The news anchor has literally gone around the bend by now and winds up the interview with the most ineffectual, pliable and subservient prime minister in independent India's history in a hurry.........



Thank you for taking the time out and granting me an audience Mr. Prime Minister, your answers on a series of issues have certainly left the nation even more in the dark and fumbling for answers to questions pertaining to the safety, security and well being of crores of Indians.........



REJOINDER: This hypothetical interview is only meant to be a spoof and is not intended to either demean the prime minster or ridicule his exalted status in the hearts and minds of the common man on the streets of the nation...........
