Congress or the Indian National Congress (INC) is one of two major political parties in India. It was founded in 1885 and played a leading role in India’s Independence movement. It has ruled during most of India’s independent years and gave the country its first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Leadership of the Congress too has been dominated by the Nehru-Gandhi family.
The Congress is a center-left party, and lists on its website democracy, nationalism, secularism, inclusive growth and social justice as its core values. It last ruled India between 2004 and 2014, but has since lost its sway, being reduced to just 52 seats in the 2019 General Elections. INDIA, the alliance headed by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, is an attempt to bring together opposition parties against the BJP government for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
The world will remember him as the only highly educated Sikh who was spineless and who became a mute spectator when the mother India was looted left n right
Excellent analysis by the politically wisest. The man of extraordinary caliber is candidly recounted here as father of reforms. The himalayan recognition makes the narration attractive.
A leader at top irrespective of his Party always worked in the interest of Nation as an Executive Head of Govt.
I miss that grace and thin smile and those bespectacled eyes, dim, full of learning. We have now a loud speaker ,talking too much,who only knows how to make people clap at his comments full of third grade wisdom.
You also have to admit that he led one of the most corrupt regime post independence.
A gracious tribute. For reasons that remain unclear, Dr Singh did not pursue economic reforms as PM, perhaps content with the surge of high growth in the exuberant years leading up to 2008. As for granting autonomy to the FM, perhaps greater control ought to have been exercised at a time when India was grappling with the global financial crisis. A bout of double digit inflation, high fiscal deficits, large loans that turned sour, the seeds of some of the problems we continue to face were sown during that time.
How can history be kind to Maunmohan chingh.
