Does Mr. Singh Deserve this Honor?

While India once again felt proud as leading magazine Forbes awarded country's two top VIP figures, Sonia Gandhi & Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, as World's top 20 most powerful personalities, my opinion is somewhat different from the aspect of what the mass may have experienced. I felt being convulsed with sudden wonder which expressively prompt me into believing whether Mr. Singh deserves such accolade as far as my perspective concurs about this.

I don’t believe what Forbes is talking about Mr. Singh. Very recently, TIME dubbed him “underachiever” citing the reasons like his prolonged silence, reluctance to address grave issues immediately and his waning decision-making approach. I concur, Mr. Singh will be remembered as one of the most unimpressive, tactless politicians of the Indian democracy whereby he disappointed citizens by putting country's economic into messy downturn.

Keeping the inflation onto unbearable points has been second nature of congress party, and Mr. Sigh seems to be endorsing that legacy with pleasure. He is well-read, intelligent and intellectuals, but as a politician, he failed to show up these personality traits into constructively astute & tactful leader. I respect him as an individual, but not as a politician as I firmly believe he should be held responsible for not living up to the public's expectation.

Recently his ridiculous remark that everyone with per-ca pita Rs 30-45 can't be construed as poor reasoned the convulsion of grievances I underwent. How could someone so efficient and educated be showing so lackluster statesmanship? It seems to be a totally and down-right self-based review of the entire population of the nation to bring them into single category of richness.

I am still looking forward to better and shinning India as the country has excellently overcome many odds of seemingly conflicting natures. Towards a better and perfect India...always.
