So somebody was mentioning how there is more to the PM than meets the eye.... i was curious to find out how this person had found some juicy bits about the PM and his dark side .. given that no one in the country has been able to relate any such stories....... and the person started relating the story....

so a colleague of this person (Colleague) and the PM were room mates during their cambridge days.... and after several years both had returned to India and had started their respective careers... this Colleague's wife was an economist too.... so one day the wife decided to apply to the RBI for a post ..... and this Colleague called up Manmohan Singh to find out if he could push her case.... Manmohan was at that time the deputy governor of the RBI.... and apparently Manmohan said 'yes yes, I will see what I can do'.... the Colleague was happy that Manmohan had agreed to push his wife's case....

The day of the interview came... and apparently Manmohan Singh refused to recognise the wife and continued with the interview as if he was interviewing any other candidate... and the wife didnt get the job.....

I immediately stopped my friend.... wait... what is wrong with what he did?? he was in a public office and he refused to give her a push .... Shouldnt this be a story of how the PM is honest and above abroad???? I frankly saw this as a positive story....

apparently all were upset that the PM didnt keep his word on pushing the woman....

so it seems that if you say that you will be corrupt and you are not, people still think that is a bad thing....
