Raga exposes Narendra Modi secret

Needless to say, the flow of thoughts in either direction have been spontaneous in the social media.

The suspicion that question and answer events of the PM are stage managed with pre-scripted answers has been around for a while.

Narendra Modi’s oratory is not owed only to the mastery of the teleprompter even though it has been said that he sometimes uses two of them. His flow of words has become legendary at least in Hindi in which language he has become a leading orator. The Prime Minister has, however, been chary of facing questions, which is why there have been no live media conferences in more than four years.

The suspicion that question and answer events of the PM are stage managed with pre-scripted answers has been around for a while. And Rahul Gandhi, a known interpreter of Modi’s maladies, has pounced upon one such event in Singapore in which the interpreter tended to speak more than what the PM said in his reply to a question. 

The Congress president openly made fun of the PM saying it is as well that there are no Prime Ministerial press conferences as he cannot take spontaneous questions. He can hardly be expected to answer them in his otherwise glib oratorical style. 

It does not seem to have mattered that the charge of micro managed Q&A and Town Hall sessions comes from a personality who, when he speaks at public events, has even had trouble expressing whether Karnataka is in Bangalore or Bangalore is in Karnataka. Tweeple have seized upon the debate both ways, making fun of the PM as well as supporting him saying this is the way it is done for the chief executive of the country. Needless to say, the flow of thoughts in either direction have been spontaneous in the social media.

Oh dear. When the translator says what the PM was supposed to say, but didn't

Modi Ji is out caught and bowled, hit wicket, stumped and run out all at the same time . That is some achievement.

I have heard of Lost in Translation. This is Found in translation. Original film length increase after translation. Actually the translator did add on her, he forgot those points. Since she didn't understand what he said she couldn't even edit her script.

That awkward moment when you realise that the translator is much smarter than your PM......

A good for nothing liability for India neither can govern nor keep India as one ..No idea what Indians are waiting for. We are feeding a costly giant n getting hit by that each moment ... A section of ppl being paid to chant his name n keep him projected all the while

If only this Big Zero of dynasty was a PM, he would know that in any interaction the PMO/organiser tries to get as many questions in advance as possible. PM may chose an impromptu response on lines of broad answers prepared already

The expression on the face of the host is priceless. He is dumbstruck, looking at Modi one minute then audience next minute. Compare this fakery with how smartly Rahul Gandhi handled a stupid question in his Singapore interview. For how long will modi be able to fool bhakts?

@RahulGandhi might not be as good #orator but I admire him as he says he is learning on the #job admits his #mistakes & takes #questions on the spot NOW SEE THIS - Modi's translator in Singapore reveal interview & his answers are scripted?

@RahulGandhi why don't you come on live debate with Honourable @PMOIndia 
@narendramodi Ji!
Rahul Gandhi accuses PM Modi of 
giving pre-scripted interviews

The fact is that he can't answer a single question from his own brain. Never in the history we had such a hollow PM. Hollow in both mind and intentions
