By now all of you must be familiar with the Mole episode. To quote rediff

‘A civil servant in a high position in the Prime Minister’s Office during the P V Narasimha Rao government had leaked information about India’s nuclear programme to the US, former external affairs minister Jaswant Singh disclosed on Tuesday. Without naming the person, he said the ‘mole’ had given information about India’s ‘nuclear programme and nuclear intent’ to the US. ‘

Machi Flash:

A recent survey said that this mole created more curiosity than the mole on Mallika Sherawat’s face, closer to her lips (Discovered by Emran Hashmi in the year 2003). In a bizzarre turn of events, this mole episode has created major problems in the house of prime minister. It seems that Mrs PM, demanded an explanation from PM on how Mr Jaswant knew about a mole, that too on Manmohans body. To clarify the misunderstanding, Manmohan Singh wrote a letter to Jaswant Singh and dared him to name the mole!

Mr Jaswant shot back a letter to the PM saying that there was a misunderstanding in this issue. It seems Mr Jaswant singh had a malayali assistant. And when Mr Jaswant was recording the details of his book, his malayali assistant was talking to his daughter and referring to her as ‘enda moaLu’. In case you didnt know moaLu in malayalam means daughter. And this moaLu mole confusion resulted in the controversial section of the book. The former external affairs minister, expressed regret having caused problems in the internal affairs of the prime minister and said he will clarify the situation in Rajya Sabha, to clear the air.

In another significant development, the former assistant of Mr Jaswant Singh has requested the newspapers of india to refrain from bothering his daughter. It seems once the news of the ‘moaLu’ leaked out, the media wanted to know if the moaLu had any mole on her body. Meanwhile the readers editor of ‘The Hindu’ has written an article on what a mole actually means with some references to various english dictionaries!
