Misinterpretation

Sir,
It is very often observed that political leaders, Ministers etc give statements which are in bad taste. Either they cast cheap aspersions on one another or defame the country. Also some give vent to their personal feelings  which are bad for the social peace. When they realize their folly about having said something undesirable, they prefer to use selected words . My words are misrepresented  or I did not mean that what is reported  or I have become a victim of my detractors or I never meant this but has been misquoted. Also many times press is blamed by them for reporting what had been said exactly. Should this be the stand of our such leaders who later find escape routes?
Yours etc…….
