PM Modi must ask himself a simple question: what is the use of all my prestige and political capital if it ultimately does not get things done for the country?
Not just financial reform and market development, India must also pay attention to fiscal empowerment of state and improvement in public administration.
The victory of the underdog in such an unforgiving society is something that fires your imagination. But there's more behind this elation than merely the colour of Obama's skin.
Disenfranchisement by institutional fiat is profoundly undemocratic. The effect of the ECI's new documentary process in Bihar will tilt the scales in favour of the BJP.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
Modi is very fond of power politics and 56 inch large image. This is killing India. He is no different than other congressmen who believe in chamchagiri and high command politics. Bhaktards are another nuisance. Even after full support of Godi media he is unable to manage a small opposition. Imagine if it was fully powerful opposition with a working media who would ask for amit shah’s resignation for the absconding terrorists
Please ask the writer to also express his views over the Murshidabad violence and the court report, what law reforms are required in India to avoid such things in future. Over to you Mr Jagganathan.
If you really care for betterment of this country as a citizen looking forward to see if you can really write on this topic.
Opposition was screaming in every rally we want caste census. Did the writer forget to condemn opposition for doing so ?
70 % of the Indians who vote only vote because of caste reservation basis. In 70 years they didn’t win because for a great nation they were looking beyond this ideology but looking at how whole India’s people vote they have aligned their working in same way. They can do any good for the country which is finally happening only if they stay in power. And this is much needed so totally understand and support it.
Absolutely agree. The government and the opposition needs to get their act together instead of wasting our time with their usual bickering. Repulsed may he be at the idea of it, but the PM cannot effectively govern the whole wide nation without striking some peace across the aisle. He should be sensible enough to grasp this.
India ia having its worst ever time,internationally and internally.Absolutely NO ONE cares about India anymore.We have been reduced to be a Paper Tiger.The Interenational community considers India to be almost at par with Pakistan and Bangladesh.Gone are the days when we were considered to be the next SUPERPOWER.We have been reduced to just another corrupt and inefficient “Banana Republic” Its like when Al Gore lost to Bush Jr he said “Ladies and Genttlemen,I usded to be the next President of the USA” INDIA used to be the next China but we failed ourselves.

Opposition Congress, TMC , AAP, SP etc is negative, obstructive, insecure, corrupt, does blatant appeasement politics in states where it is in power, opposes everything Modi does irrespective of merit and to the extent of going against national interest. Winning elections is a must to stay in power and do what is best for nation, otherwise opposition will sell the country to dogs. Author has no balanced analysis.
India is done. Everyone wants to grab power. Modi is becoming same like other. He needs to learn from chinese leaders otherwise Indian economy will always grow at 6 percent
Socialist Modi is done and dusted. Hope at least the Libertarian Party of India gets things done for India. BJP has reduced itself to a shameless socialist party.
Surprisingly one sided views. PM would have definitely called and discussed issues with a Sane LoP. What we have now is a dud, dumb and childish actor. PM is definitely engaging with sensible Opposition leaders from all parties, including Congress. But one ‘nominated’ leader is the problem. Country can do without this guy…
Jagannath of fools.

Auther of this artical is Anti National and is staunch anti-Modi. His opinion is worthless.
Right wing journalist Jaggi, cannot see that secular federalism is the one and only way for progress.
Excellent article. This is the truth.
For a lifelong parcharak nothing is more imp than upcoming election.
Even if its MCD level.
Prephaps years of being in opposition have made them too scared of loosing power.
