A Proven Destructor, Yet an Architect!

He is called as the architect of modern Indian economy, technocrat politician, astute administrator, so on and so forth. He bailed out the economy from perils, insulated or minimized the effects of global melt down and saved this country from disaster. He is none other than Dr.Manmohan Singh. He is ofcourse backed by a strong curriculum vitae to get a top job in any educational institution or a research organization, but what is his accomplishment as a Union Finance minister and Prime Minister to lead this country?
The United Nations development Programme publishes Human Development Index every year, comprehensively covering every aspect of Human development. This is considered as a report card for development. Our economist took over the reins of finance ministry in 1991 when India was ranked 123 in Human development Index. Without any delay, the saviour of our economy started redeeming our economy through his glorified ‘Manmohanomics’. A section of the media, intelligentsia and select International community praised him sky high and our doyen of reforms reached dizzy heights along with the country’s ranking. India was pushed to 135th position in 5 years. But the crowd that adores him as the savior may well argue that 135 is greater than 123!
The BJP assumed office in 1998, when the country was ranked 139 in the Human development Index. According to our economist, this party lacks knowledge on economics and in spite of their 6 year mismanagement, India rose to 127th rank in 2004. Then we are more fortunate to have our technocrat as the Prime Minister this time, assisted ably by Mr.P.Chidambaram as Finance Minister and Dr.Montek Singh Alluwalliah, as the Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission, the licensed finance experts. They toiled hard without rest, with international guidance from Italy to resurrect the losses inflicted by the NDA to see the country in 132nd position in 2008. Again simple mathematics: 132 is greater than 127!
He is known for his fight against poverty. India witnessed the severest drought of the century in 2002-2003 but not witnessed famine death or farmer’s suicide. But his party’s general secretary Raul Vinci, (Rahul Gandhi for political purposes), has to narrate the story of Kalavati in parliament to throw light on the plight of farmers in India, dying out of hunger and poverty under our economist’s regime. Most of the lieutenants of our economists are his invisible foes. His trusted ‘Sishya’, our learned finance minister Mr.Chidambaram, in his budget speech, thanked the NDA for keeping the financial position stronger than ever before because he could not deny the fact that our Forex reserve is more than our debts.
Manmohan’s economic policy is always in tune with global trends and thinking. As a prime Minister of a sovereign democratic republic, he visited the United States in 2005 and requested the business community there to suggest changes in Indian law, so that they can invest in India. This master stroke is to undo the damage inflicted by his predecessor Mr.Atal Behari Vajpayee, who exhorted in Europe that India is ready to invest anywhere in the world.
The International exposure and credibility of our architect Dr.Manmohan Singh helped many Nations to realize their dreams vis-à-vis India. His handling of Nepal affairs saw a Maoist Government in Nepal, which is strategic for China’s interest in the region. It further strengthens the insurgent Naxal and Jehadi movements which is sponsored by Pakistan, Bangladesh and China. His inept handling of the Sri Lankan affairs resulted in genocide of Tamils in Sri Lanka and a volatile situation in the state of Tamil Nadu. As a humanitarian, a life of a terrorist is precious to him. His softness, is beyond bounds, he even ignored the apex court judgment to hang Mr.Afzal Guru, involved in a terror strike on our parliament and is more concerned about terrorists languishing in jails by withdrawing Prevention of Terrorism Ordinance (POTO).
Our Prime minister’s commitment towards non violence is further demonstrated by his track record on combating terrorism in Kashmir. He even questioned his political foe Mr.L.K.Advani on his contribution to the nation. During the stint of heartless Mr.L.K.Advani as Home Minister, Jammu and Kashmir witnessed the liquidation of 7823 terrorists, but the present humanitarian regime in the last 5 years killed only 2842 terrorists. He is deeply concerned over the loss of lives in bomb blasts in Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Hyderabad, Assam, Kashmir, Bangalore, UP, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand and other places. His patriotism goes further to say that there is no involvement of any local elements in Mumbai attack and forced the investigating agencies to drop charges against the locals. His party in Assam, which Dr.Singh claims as his home state, vowed to bring the controversial Illegal Migrants (Determination by Tribunal) Act, which was struck down by the Apex court, citing that as a threat to national security and enabled millions of Bangladeshis to illegally occupy our land. His tenure as Prime Minister saw an abnormal increase of 15.1% voters in Assam electoral rolls before assembly elections 2005.
Dr.Singh’s commitment to social justice and secularism speaks volumes. While addressing the national Integration Council meet he exhorts that the first share of our development belongs to the Muslims and his governments in Andhra, Karnataka and Kerala reserved seats for minorities. His secular credentials are further bolstered with his affidavit on Ram-Sethu, calling Lord Ram as a fictitious character.
No one can raise his finger against our prime minister on corruption. It’s the CBI, which withdrew the corruption charge against Ms.Mayavati for voting Pratiba Patil, as claimed by her. It’s the CBI, which allowed the bank to defreeze the money in Mr.Quottrochis name. It is the CBI, which dropped Mr.Quottroch from the Bofors case. It’s not the Prime Minister’s ministry which auctioned 3G spectrum. It’s the vote of confidence sought by the Prime Minister but somebody paid money to the parliamentarians to vote. Such an honest Prime minister, the country has never witnessed before.
His contribution to all aspects of governance like economy, national security, international relations, combating corruption, social justice, fight against poverty, terrorism, respecting culture and beliefs may be destructive but his obedience to His master’s voice made him the Architect of Modern Indian economy.
