Under his advice, more terrorists attacks on India while more terror net works spred all around India.
The worse we lost the grip on Sri-Lanka, which is growing fast as a pro chinese and Pakistan. At the same time we lost support of the Tamils in Sri-Lanka too. All glory to Narayana.
Oh Narayana Naraya...!!
shivrajShivraj Patil as guv:
It is ridiculous to give any post of national importance who does not believe in himself.It is because of this man our country's security was breached and Mumbai attacks took place.He is incapable of handling any responsibility then why he has been given this job.there can only be only one reason that He is close to Sonia Ghandhi . So she is caring for him like a 2 year old child and neglecting the nation's benefit.
