Indian prime minister’s office responds to Washington Post’s profile on Manmohan Singh September 6, 2012 By votecongress Leave a Comment By Anup Kaphle The office of India’s prime minister objected to The Washington Post’s front-page article, published Sept. 5, 2012, on Manmohan Singh’s evolution as a leader. The following is a letter from the Prime Minister’s office: Dear Simon, We do not complain about criticism of the government which is a journalist’s right. But I am writing this letter for pointing out unethical and unprofessional conduct at your part. I would like to put on record my complaint about your article which was published today on many counts: — Despite all lines of conversations open, you never got in touch with us for our side of the story though you regularly talk to me about information from the PMO. This story thus becomes totally one sided. — You have been telling the media here in India that your request for an interview was declined though the mail below says clea ...

As a Washington Post article on the allegedly poor leadership of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh created a strong reaction in Delhi, the influential US daily's correspondent said he stood by the story and offered no apology.

The ONSET OF A FINANCIAL TURMOIL in INDIA' NEW DELHI — India’s Prime Minister Manmohan Singh helped set his country on the path to modernity, prosperity and power, but critics say the shy, soft-spoken 79-year-old is in danger of going down in history as a failure. - The Washington Post by Simon Denyer Published September 4, 2012.
Earlier Simon Denyer now Francois Gautier, Everybody revealing the truth. and they r asked for apology for their point of view. Uf.
Whether or not Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is a tragic figure, it is clear that his office's media management is tragically inept. By practically whining about a perfectly ordinary news profile about Dr. Singh in The Washington Post, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) has given the article the weight it does not deserve. The profile published by the Post on Sep 4 said the prime minister's image of a "scrupulously honorable, humble and intellectual technocrat" had turned into one who is "a dithering, ineffectual bureaucrat presiding over a deeply corrupt government". As profiles go this one by the newspaper's Delhi correspondent Simon Denyer is one of those quickly marshalled pieces reliably reflecting the popular sentiment in the country's middle class and republishing some fairly pungent comments by eminent names such as historian Ramchandra Guha and Manmohan Singh's former media adviser and economist Dr. Sanjay Baru. Even there Denyer was caught flatfooted by first disregarding to mention that the quot ...
Communication advisor to the PMO, Pankaj Pachauri, shot off a rejoinder to the India bureau chief Simon Denyer on Thursday.
The Hindustan Times reports I and B Minister Ambika Soni says the Indian government will demand that The Washington Post apologize for its Delhi correspondent Simon Denyer calling Prime Minister Manmohan Singh a silent tragic figure. Let me make a few points: 1) It is not the Post or Denyer calling him a tragic figure but Ramchandra Guha 2) It is not just the paper and the journalist calling him silent. Many in India do 3) So what? 4) Tell Soni and Denyer to slug it out in the Lodhi Gardens.
