How do you respond?

How do you respond to the charges levelled against you?

To know more about the charges, the following links might be of some use:

1. Posts in this blog - 1 and 2
2. Two articles of Arun Shourie are available here.
3. V. Sundaram's articles: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5

Here is how Mrs. Pratibha Patil responded:

Instead of coming out with details and clarifications, she said, "All charges are baseless.." (here too)

That was her answer to all those charges!!! The statement of negation is all she needed to tackle those charges. Sounds weird? But, the rationalist Mr. Karunanidhi had found nothing of that sort. He, using all his rational powers, said, "she had adequately replied to her detractors."
