Not Off The Cuff

The Pakistan remarks were not off the cuff evidently. Someone is paying for it, which would not have happened if it was off the c.

And yes. "Mysterious disclosure" does justice to the letter leaking episode. How do letters go from writer to the intended person at those levels? Does the writer, S Kulkarni in this case, put it in an envelope, lick it shut and then hurry to the nearest post office? Or does he knock on the latter's office door and silently handover the missive to him - who is probably sitting at his desk - reminding one of an intra-office romance popularised by Hindi movies? Does he use a courier? Or a kid playing nearby? Does he hand it over to the actual person or to his personal assistant? These are relevant questions which could throw some light on the leak. I plump for the personal assistant.
