Likewise..... Subha ji... It is an absolute pleasure reading views of so many subject matter experts, prolific readers etc. I am nobody when compared to these individuals..... 👏

Yes !! I agree with this idea but there is a lot of difference between a National level Party leader like Mrs Sonia Gandhi and and an ordinary citizen or person like us.Mrs Sonia Gandhi was projected as "Future Prime Minister of India",she needs to consider the feelings of people of India if she really wants to lead this country.Her religion permits her to sing the national song.So it means she does'nt "feel" for India.

Understood.. what you are essentially saying that the responsibilities of a celebrity leader is more magnified than an ordinary citizen but let us face the fact. Vande Matram is not a universally accepted "anthem" in country. It is tagged (and I do not necessary agree with the tag) more as a Hindu fundamentalists' song and therefore all netas who masquerade themselves as secular like to stay away from it's association. Likelihood is Sonia is doing the same.

FYI: Laloo Yadav had prevented this song from being played in a rally in Patna vecause he wanted to woo voters of a particular section of the society (u know what I mean).....😉

A person who wishes to lead a big country like India should have broad vision,feel for the nation.She is such a lady... she does'nt even know respecting the Leaders of the Nation.See the treatment she gave to a Scholar, Wonderful Ex Prime Minister of India Shri P.V.Narasimha Rao.Oh!! maa!! Once I saw the walk the talk program with Mrs Sonia in NDTV,She has no brains,she has no subject,all think She is Shy but She is forced to be shy because she knows nothing and she cannot speak anything.She learnt the concepts of external affairs from Natwar Singh and now she threw him out.Laloo is not a Prime Ministerial Candidate.He thinks he is so but he is not....Mrs Sonia Gandhi is just a hype.She cannot and will not lead a wonderful nation like India.Consider Mrs Annie Beasant she was a foriegner,She was the President of Congress Party ,She completely transformed herself into a complete Indian mentally,spiritually ,politically.

Foreigners are foreigners they need to know their limits and should'nt interfere in the internal administrative affairs of the country they come and live.If they don't understand this ,they will face severe consequences.Do you remember Mahendra of FIJI???

well..this is the first time i've been to DM n its my first ever comment here..(please dnt be harsh on me 😳 )..if the main question here is should people of Indian origin be allowed to contest for administrative positions of a foreign country then my answer is YES YES YES !
Those of indian ancestory but foreign nationality have the rights as those of the indegenous community (rather SHOULD have)..therefore they should be allowed to participate in the governance of that country...m originally from Fiji and my forefathers have put in their sweat and blood in building that economy and i can say proudly and without a doubt that whatever economical strength that country has is the result of my forefathers hardwork and labour...(the current postition is not taking into consideration the racially fuelled coups..which dragged the economy back 20 years !)..and if any Indian of Fijian nationality wants to run the Government then SO BE IT ....they have a constitutional right to !

Welcome Tasha Square ji!!

Enlighten us about FIJI politics

My belief is that the top post of a nation should go to a person who rules the heart and mind of masses, who understands the needs of cross section of the society in the land that s/he is going to lead. In last election, Congress Party clearly won majority in large part due to Sonia's campaign, which shows that she has the mass appeal. She has also shown, time and again, maturity in dealing with the masses. She has shown that she is not the one to rule from within safe confines of air conditioned bungalows. That she can co-mingle with the masses (like her late husband). She has been in India for more than 20 years and is an Indian citizen. She dresses like an Indian more than most of the modern Indian women do. What else are we looking for which disqualifies her from leadning the country.

I mean, let us face the fact, she is ruling the country by proxy anyways. One day she will fire from her son's shoulders. 😉

perfect u have said it all.i think people who have settled out of india have the right to be leaders including sonia gandhi. i think all his ho haa abt her being an italian is just a political stun t of opposition parties bcoz they knw indians love gandhi's and they have been ruling for generations. its just that fear bcoz she won the elections which itself shows that indian people dont have problem with her loyalties.

and even people of indian origin r doin g fine abroad the yr doing a swell job. like u see chandrapaul he plays against india...... and he has all his loyalties towards westindies.

Jindal Coasts to Louisiana Governor's Mansion

From today's Post: "Rep. Bobby Jindal (R) became the nation's first Indian American governor Saturday, outpolling 11 rivals in Louisiana and drawing enough votes to avoid a runoff election next month.

"With about 90 percent of the state's nearly 4,000 precincts reporting, Jindal had 53 percent of the vote. His nearest competitor, state Sen. Walter J. Boasso (D), had 18 percent." Full story.

Congrats and best wishes to Boby Jindal😊

Hi Friends!!!

The term People of Foreign origin is directly proportinal to Mrs Sonia Gandhi.We got bored of this term during previous LokSabha elections.After the election results there was huge uproar in every nook and corner of India( rather World).I too got worried with the thought "What if Mrs Gandhi becomes Prime Minister of India?",infact at that time I prayed sincerely to God to do some miracle and God heard my prayers Mata Gandhi renounced the post👏.So everything is fine now.

I sincerely feel Sonia Gandhi would have done a superb job as PM. However, she may not have been accepted by all. She would not have stayedin India if she didnot feel every bit Indian after her husband was shot but we donot see that. She did the right thing by not taking the post. I have very high regard for her😊

So many Indians are in every nook and corner of the World,from fiji to Chicago.They are going to those countries for some studies ,work and are getting settled there permanently.They are settling there soooo much that they are contesting and Winning in that countries elections.We in India support them very much and celebrate if they win.Is'nt a paradox.

We don't accept people of foriegn origin as our country heads but at the same time appreciate our fellow Indians if they win in another country.

My question is

"Should people of foriegn origin know their limits and just do their work without interferingin that countries administration?"

Thing is Myth..... Indians who have settled abroad, have to be citizens of that country before they can participate in elections or anything else. Same perhaps should apply to foreigners settled in India. If people stay for a long time in another country then I feel they consider it their home. Here in Canada we have people from different countries and regions who have settled so Canada is their home.😊

"Say that country accepts foriegn origin people as leaders,will they get the respect,affection from local people?"

Please feel free to express your views .
