Mr.Singh, Sir, heard of leadership by example? Since you've claimed that we're going through real hard times that require firm decisions to be taken, then YOU need to make a beginning; lead by example as also direct your colleagues and opposites in the Parliament, as well as babus who have opted for a career in civil and administrative services (with seemingly no intention of serving the common man!) to drastically prune (do away?!) their perks, security, FUEL expenses and lavish lifestyles that they enjoy at the expense of the tax-slaughtered common man! Please STINGH to DIGorously pursue FDI (Follow-up and Direct Intervention!) to lighten up all the black zillions stashed away in Swiss banks and elsewhere around the globe; after all, during your stint as a student of Ecocomics, you must have surely learnt about "market forces", their impact on die-sell and buy prices of fuel, as well as their assets and lie-abilities! On a side note, did you toothPASTE with Co(a)lgate when you went abroad to get a Doctor-gate? Huh?!
