Dear Lord, anyone but Manmohan Singh. The guy is the PM of the largest democracy of the world and yet barely anyone knows his views and thoughts on economic policies, how to boost growth, how to deal with high levels of poverty etc. I could care less about the large amount of degrees and scholarships he has, he has never once proven himself to be worthy of the PM post. Dunya ko chodo, Indians themselves have barely ever heard him say even 2 words. We do not need a leader that will sit quietly. Having said that, nor do we want another Congress leader that will make many promises and do nothing at all.
As controversial as this may sound, I think Modi would be great. He has done wonders for Gujarat in terms of development!
Coming back to the presidency. Give it time, Pranab'ji' is yet to prove his worth. I would like to see another president like Kalam. Now he was one intelligent guy!
Do you not want him as PM because he sits quietly? 😕
Who could have proved himself worthy enough of PM's post even under such stress Indian economy is going through?
I think it's valid, why he is so shy... he is a man of few words, that's his nature - people need to respect for who he is. This is no post-independence stage or anything to make orations.
Besides, he does speak...at meetings, summits, etc. whatever little he speaks do get published in the magazines. He's not the PM for nothing. I dont understand why he's always criticized, can anyone suggest ways to become a better Executive? Just because India's economy is at cross-roads, it does not mean we have a bad administrator. There are numerous factors responsible for whatever's happening.
Holding the PMO is not a dummy's job... he's got most responsiblities than anyone else in the country. The country infact, is miraculously running inspite of population explosion, corruption, poverty, economic/financial stress, Eurozone crisis etc. ~ thanks to him he isnt losing his mind!
People need to appreciate where it's due. He's a leader amidst a corrupted system, he has been known to be 'clean'.
And it's not ONLY the PM that is responsible for whatever happens in the entire nation... afterall, he's sitting in a PMO, how can he be responsible for the entire nation? Ofcourse it's him that directs the entire govt, but it's the officials at lower levels that have to implement correctly. And, also the 'Prime Minister's Office' that consists of Secretaries that involve in 'advising' the PM.. infact, the entire policy-making, directing the govt thing goes about in the PMO... how can Manmohan alone be blamed now?
