Dear Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Congratulations on what you have achieved!! You were and are the best Prime Minister available to the nation. You may out of politeness attribute your success to others but I won’t be convinced even if you swear an affidavit.
What pleases me beyond measure is the well deserved emasculation of the antinational Left. No longer will I hear some Congressmen contemplating another bout of illicit intimacy with them.
I want India to become a more resolute and active partner with other secular democracies to exterminate the scourge of terrorism more lethal than ever by its invoking the aid of Islam which neither they nor a good part of the Moslem world understand. It is tragic the Moslem intellectuals have failed us so far.
Strengthening Pakistan’s fragile democracy and even a preemptive strike to prevent the Taliban from acquiring a nuclear weapon should be your immediate concerns.
Repatriation of enormous Indian wealth concealed by crooks in foreign Banks, identification and punishment of the culprits involved are imperatives. I hope there will be no ridiculing or obstructing the effort of good citizens. Did you call this a election stunt? I did not hear it and I cannot believe it either.
You and your Party have already anointed your successor. My scepticism is not a secret. I believe the young man needs ten years intensive education and experience to qualify. The job is too demanding and difficult. My assessment may be wrong or unfair but it is honest. My only defence is ‘Satyameva Jayate’.
Soniaji and her immediate family have not been cured of their allergy to me. I must confess that I have done nothing to redress it and have certainly accentuated it by my plain speaking.
I wish you a full and glorious tenure.
With best wishes,
Sincerely your,
RAM JETHMALANI
Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Hon’ble Prime Minister of India
