He should be 10' tall, good looking like Dev Anand, he should be able to jump 100 feet in air, should be able to speak in every language on earth, every body should worshiip him, and should be as good an administrator as Ram (oh no he is God), lee quan of Singapore, of course he must be above all corruption, and control all others on Loc Sabha to be free of corruption, he must attend to my personal need. I ran out of all the qualifications Indian PM should have, please add your requirements too.
You get what you deserve, actually you have lot more.
Have you seen yourself in the mirror?????
Dear Prasad,
I understand your sentiments, but lets look at this with all the evidences we have.
1. India in the historical past was very prosperous. - lets see if this is correct ?. Ancient travellers - Marco Polo, Megasthenes, etc have written detailed accounts of our kingdoms, the prosperity of our common people. British researchers during the colonial regime have written extensive accounts of our country - how prosperous our people were, how they all worked together despite the caste heirarchy, how they used to harvest & store the rice to last for 1 to 2 yrs so that they can overcome famine etc.. - SO FAIR TO SAY, ALL OR MOST OF OUR PEOPLE HAD FOOD, WATER & SHELTER DURING THE HISTORICAL PAST, EVEN DURING THE BRITISH DAYS ! - Hopefully no dispute here !
2. MK GANDHI - starts the freedom struggle. 20+ Mil died. - lets see if this is correct !. western accounts by Mountbatten & team have written extensively the destruction caused by the freedom struggle & the subsequent partition. our indian researchers themselves have documented that millions died as part of this. To highlight, MK was very proude to associate himself with the British Masters, studies in london, practised in london/south africa calling the British White Judges as "your honor" & made a lot of money etc.. He got upset when he was thrown out of a train in south africa by the whites, then he started this fight against British. He was 40+ yrs old when he started this. Hang on, the freedom movement was going on for a long time, & he did NOT join all these while - why?? he was worshipping his white masters like many indians who admired the British administration !!! if you want to really want to look for heroes, lets please look at - Veerapandian Kattabomman, Mangal Pandey, Bhagat Singh etc..
3. Nehru - destroyed the entire economy. lets see if this is correct ?.
He implemented land reforms, abolish zamindari system, abolish princely kingdoms. - No dispute here - all documented history !.
Okay, so how did people earn money in the old days & provide food for thier family.?. By all western accounts - these princely kingdoms, zamindars were the entrepreneurs in the past, who employed millions of farmers to till their land & sell them in the market. & they paid these farmers with rice & money however just/unjust this may have been!. hopefully NO dispute on this.
so when Nehru implemented these reforms, all these princely kingdoms/zamindars lost thier land, & hence closed down their farming business !!. How can you do farming with small pieces of land???? Now he gave the land to the farmer - GREAT ELECTION SHOW !!. - So how can the farmer who had NO knowlede on finance & business was expected to till the land & sell them in the maket that too in 1 to 2 acres of land???. you cannot grow anything in such a small piece of land.
so as a natural sequence, all the farmers were destroyed becos they got NO income from all these zamindars. they were reduced to utter poverty, crime & prostitution.
Now you know why that silly raj kapoor was singing those pathetic sad songs in all his movies.
3. Indira/Rajiv - they had absolutely no brains/vision, so they continued the Nehru's license raj & destroyed 100s of millions of people's livelyhood !!
4. PVN Rao - architect/implemented the path breaking reforms !.
5. MMS - now falsely credited with the reforms by Congress becos PVN sidelined the Gandhi family.
all his economic policies are junk/socialist stuff - loan waiver, NREGA, Right to education, Right to food, etc.. are all large govt programs & will bankrupt the country.
Oh not to forget - we have the largest sovereign debt to GDP ratio in the world. Our Moody's rating is 1 notch above -"JUNK RATING".
His RBI monetary policy has been a disaster, he raised the interest rates so much to control inflation, growth significantly slowed down & we are now moving into a recession.
UN published a report that 800+ Mil are in dire poverty. The great MMS immediately asks Montek to lower the poverty line so that the 800+ mil can be lowered.
So if all these are TRUE (happy to debate on any rational objections, any factual inconsistencies/inaccuracies), how can anyone except PV Narasimha Rao can be a Great Prime Minister of this country !.
Cheers,
JK
