  1. JI, it is not about leaders being good or bad in a diverse India. As people we should not expect Utopia (the proverbial "Ramrajya" - NOTE: not connected to Ram Mandir!!!!) , which never existed and never will come. If we let federal and state governments to function with even 50% efficiency and let them make mistakes, India will race ahead with its economy.

  2.  @nijilanand  why should government regulate what is eaten by the citizens. (Now, don’t bring in the beef angle in this). Less regulation and more self discipline is what is needed.

  3. What popularity? In the recently concluded Presidential elections in the USA Biden won; he got 52% of the popular votes while Trump got 48%. what do we have here? A President who is 4% more popular? To 48% Americans he is unpopular. So much for "popular" leaders. If we do not separate individuals and policies in discussions we will not get anywhere.

  5. *** Disclaimer: Not a statement of offence or in defence. I suppose SG has once again come up with some statistics by way of information. Whether and how the Government should react to these statistics is a moot point. We are now in a world where linear reading of data is passe’. We have technology to quickly process raw data with many variables peculiar to particular situations and geographies. You can’t expect that similar data from Bangladesh (a small largely homogenous Nation) and India (a vast heterogenous federal state), can be handled with the same logic. The variables that affect the raw data will be different in each case. As an example of differing situations et al... Something to chew on: An extract from Ruchir Sharma’s book “The 10 Rules of successful Nations” “When massive credit binges start to unwind, and credit growth falls below the rate of economic growth, the result is often a painful recession. But this is necessarily a cleansing step".
