For the first time after becoming Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh addressed the nation yesterday. The full text of his speech can be found
here [hindu.com] or
here [rediff.com]. Of course, both contain typos; I can never understand why our media can't employ competent typists and proofreaders.
His speech was statesmanslike and sincere. My favourite extract:
... Growth is not an end in itself. It is a means to generate employment, banish poverty, hunger and homelessness and improve the standard of living of the mass of our people.
The Hindu has
a good article about the speech.
