Kashelkar replies:

Fudge, in fact, may really be a "good but misguided" person.  
However, he's is not ready to accept that Voldy is back (and afraid 
that DD might displace him from his post), and hence has developed 
kind of enmity against anyone who claims that Voldy is back or is 
close to DD.  His loathing towards Harry is particularly evident from 
the scene at the trial: he seems to be bent on expelling Harry from 
Hogwarts and breaking his wand ie. exterminate from wizarding 
community.  He always tries to discredit Harry with the help 
of "Daily Prophet".  On this background, if he finds Harry lurking 
illegally inside the DoM, he won't even offer him a chance to explain 
himself (Just remember Harry's trial for use of magic by underage 
wizard) and put him right away at Azkaban. (and What will Harry 
explain even if given a chance??  His explanations involving his 
vision or Voldy will definitely not accepted) Not to mention, all the 
pals of Harry with him at the MoM, shall also recieve more or less 
the same treatment.
Also, imagine how happy Fudge would be, if he is able to capture the 
members of the order, including Sirius.  Also, finding Tonks and 
Kingsley with Sirius, shall lose them their jobs at the MoM, and 
probably shall be sent to Azkaban for spying or other charges.

I do think that, if he's given to enjoy such a feast, he'd definitely 
offer the best of honours (Order of Merlin; First Class??) to the 
person (ie. probably Lucias Malfoy) who tipped him.  (Again here we 
must consider the fact that the MoM released a criminal who provided 
them the info about the first meeting of DA members at Hog's Head)
