QUOTES UNQUOTES - POLITICS

Views of experts and prominent personalities on Coal Minister Sriprakash Jaiswal's statement that old wives are boring

Pralhad Kakkar: India needs to debate on the serious issue that Mr. Jaiswal raised.

ND Tiwari: Oh God, one more idiot

Amitabh Bachchan: He he he... (chuckles) He could have used his brain either. Thank God I am now out of that irritating sandwich stuff of old wife and new girlfriend.

Rekha: That was what I always used to tell Amitji.

Jaya Bachchan: This guy requires a strong punch from me.

Sachin Tendulkar: What? Does he indicate I should retire from Cricket and join the Commentary box.

Digvijay Singh: Fas gaya, by following me

Rahul Gandhi: Mumma, when will I have my first wife which will become old and then I would say I lost charm in her

Arindam Chaudhuri: Calm Down India! Dare to think beyond old wife, adopt new one

Suhel Seth: What I believe is Jaiswal should be more open while talking. I think we should seat in the conference just listen to him and then discuss the serious problem than poverty.

Dale Carnegie Institute of Public Speaking: Sriprakash should join our course in twisting the words in more fluent manner while attracting less outrage.
