Sachin=GOD Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 Well none as bad as the current one. Giani Zail Singh was probably worse than Pratibha Patil.
yoda Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Giani Zail Singh was probably worse than Pratibha Patil. Zail Singh was bad, but IMO she has set a new standard for low.

Precambrian Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Well none as bad as the current one. Fakruddin Ali Ahmad should take the cake for imposing emergency....

Desi Cartman Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 WTF moment for me was when a candidate was not considered as she is only 67 years old, yes too young for the post :hysterical:
Zelig Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Karuna is the eldest politician in the whole of India. Make him the Primo. Well deserved :protest:
Zelig Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 I want kalam back :hitler: Congress are not kewl with the idea of someone running a second term. They want to keep the legacy of Dr. Rajendra Prasad (:hatsoff:) intact
1983-2011 Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Make Sachin Tendulkar the President. A win win situation for the majority of the population
someone Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Do be honest why can't we just remove this president position? I really do not see what a president does in India. All important decisions are certainly made by the PM.

someone Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 We do need president but just need to stop treating them like kings and spending millions of dollars a year We need a president who has some power and can take decisions. Afraid that is not going to happen with Congress in power. So better just remove this position and stop wasting our resources.
Zelch Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Seems like Sonia Maino's poodle, President Patil has not learned her lesson in the Pune land scam case. She has sent in chamchas to look for any irregularities in the properties owned by the activists and they couldnot find any. Twitter buzz scares away Pratibha Patil's emissary sent to pacify protestors of Pune land grab April 23, 2012 The Governor of Tripura, DY Patil, had planed to fly down to Pune to pacify activists opposing President Pratibha Patil's post-retirement home; tweets depleted his confidence and he sent his confidante instead, who in turn asked the soldiers to "tone down the agitation" A couple of days back, President Patil’s men in the Defence Estate Office, Pune, were busy taking measurements of Col Suresh Patil’s outhouse, despite the fact that only Pune Cantonment Board is authorized to do so. When they found no substance in this raid, the next best thing was to find out a strategy to pacify him and his two colleagues, Commander Ravindra Pathak and Anoop Awasthi, former naval officer, who has been spearheading a campaign against President Patil’s palatial retirement home in Pune measuring a whopping 2,42,000 sq ft when she is entitled to only 4,498 sq ft and that too of an existent government bungalow (she cannot indulge in new construction on government land). A little bird tells us has it that last night Pratibha Patil asked Governor of Tripura, D Y Patil to fly down to Pune and meet Col Suresh Patil and somehow salvage the situation for her. Apparently, Col Patil got a call this morning as early as 6 am from Governor D Y Patil who said he would be in Pune to meet him at 5.30 p m. He would send his driver and car to pick him up, once he lands in Pune. The news of the meeting spread like wildfire on the twitter and the media was constantly keeping a close watch on the event, throughout the day. However, 5 pm turned to 6 pm but there was no sign of D Y Patil. Col Patil followed up with the driver every half an hour. He would reply that ``Dada has still not landed.’’ His private aircraft was awaited. At around 7.30 p m `Dada’ D Y Patil landed but by then he must have been informed of the damage that Twitterati had done to his supposedly secret meeting. Put off by this, D Y Patil instead sent his trusted trustee of D Y Patil educational institutes, B D Kotkar Patil (there are just too many Patils involved in the mega controversy!). He drove to Col Patil’s house at 8.15 p m.States Col Patil, ``we have known each other for many years and we chatted for a while. After about half an hour Kotkar said that he wants to talk to me separately.’’ Kotkar took him aside and asked him to ``tone down the agitation’’ and to have patience until April 24th when D Y Patil will surely meet him. Col Patil replied, ``there is no question of toning down the agitation, instead it would be intensified. Now, it is not just the fight of citizens of India but also Indians who are staying all over the world and have joined us in our campaign. Our demand is that the President must return the land to our soldiers and there is no compromise on that.’’ Kotkar reiterated that D Y Patil would meet them on April 24th.The three soldiers continue their mission to protest against President Patil’s palatial retirement home. On Monday, they are carrying out a signature campaign outside Collector of Pune’s office and will begin an online petition. They request everyone to join the movement.
Sachin=GOD Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 Zail Singh was bad' date=' but IMO she has set a new standard for low.[/quote'] Nopes. She has been an inactive President but not as bad as Zail Singh or Fakruddin Ali Ahmad. They were the ones who set the bar low - others (with a few exceptions like Dr. Kalam etc) have merely followed them in being rubber stamps.
Precambrian Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Who have been the best? S Radhakrishnan - a learnt man and truly honored Rajendra Prasad - the first and probably the most noblest of them all Abdul Kalam - obv... and?

Desi Cartman Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 A gem from Zail Singh In 1982 he was unanimously nominated to serve as the President. Nonetheless, some in the media felt that the president had been chosen for being an Indira loyalist rather than an eminent person. “If my leader had said I should pick up a broom and be a sweeper, I would have done that. She chose me to be President,”[6] Singh was quoted to have said after his election. He took the oath of office on July 25, 1982.
1983-2011 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Make Sachin Tendulkar the President. A win win situation for the majority of the population one step closer it seems by todays news:hatsoff:
