Why wouldn't the politicians of India understand that frisking is just a process to ensure security and not to embarrass anyone. The issue of frisking Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam is blown out of proportion by the Indian Politicians and official concerned with it. What was their problem when the former president, who was frisked did not have any problem with it. These politicians should understand that there are lot more serious problem prevailing in this [so called] democratic india and its national pride is in no way insulted by this security check. The Airline officials after expressing their apologies (which in my opinion was already unnecessary) were summoned by the government for their irreverence(that is what they call it). The same level of frustration is not expressed when a woman was stripped in the street in front of a street before the public and the Assistant Sub-Inspector which happened about the same time period, when a terrorist killed people in public and now tries to get away from the death sentence by confessing, when a nun was raped in public and so on.
Politicians should understand that a better India can be made by addressing better issues and not petty issues like this.
