why is india's future so interwoven with dynasty's future?
anyway, I dont share your pessimism. to think that only a PhD can take india forward is illogical. was indira well educated? but she did her job when needed and died when needed. india is a land of destiny. things just happen, no one plans them.
just like indian team gets a dhoni, when the time comes we will get our leader to make india the SUPERPOWER. (sorry for the rhetoric).:Laie_57:
No he doesn't have to be a Phd. but a college degree would be useful while governing the (almost) biggest and most diverse country on the planet don't you think?
Rite, well I don't believe in destiny even though They say that India works "ram bharose" and all that. But frankly we'll need more than the combined efforts of our million gods if we are to get somewhere. There's a limit to how much our tenacious entrepreneurs can achieve in the face of terrible corruption and lack of basic infrastructure.
IMO we should start by trying to reforming agriculture - which is the most backward part of our economy, the most neglected, and the most difficult to modernize, all at the same time. Why? because reforming agriculture takes mass movement and sacrifice, and none of our netas have the vision to do what is necessary. They would rather distribute free electricity (which is really never there) and TV sets while our productivity suffers.
Though I must say Modi has been doing what appears to be a stellar job in improving agriculture in his state.
