New Delhi, Sep 27: Mulayam Singh Yadav can be easily termed as the shrewdest but pragmatic socialist politician of India. He swears in the name of maverick Ram Manohar Lohiya, who spent his entire life opposing Congress, but has unabashedly emerged as the savior of the Congress led governments in recent times.




What is it that makes Mulayam bail out the UPA govt every time it hits roadblocks? His opponents point out that he has become a victim of his own misdeeds including financial irregularities and improprieties committed during the days when he was at the helm of affairs in India's largest state Uttar Pradesh.

According to his critics, CBI has got enough evidence against him to nail him down in a court of law and that the UPA govt is using CBI as a bulwark against Mulayam. Is it really the fear of CBI only which is forcing Mulayam to rescue the UPA govt time again? The answer is a big NO.

There could be merit in the argument that since Mulayam is facing a number of cases and CBI can make things difficult for him but Mulayam has other valid reasons for not being seen as a person who was standing at the sidelines when Manmohan Singh led government  was dethroned by an opposition which was led by BJP.
