When we are not the change -
Hindustan Times
The rise of an emerging economy like India is not pre-determined. It requires diligent policy innovation to maintain an economic gro-wth trajectory and constant debate to keep the political class focused on the future. If anything, history is littered with examples of countries who have even surpassed the growth figures India has notched up this past decade — and then squandered it away. At the heart of ensuring India doesn’t lose its way is the need to maintain the pace of policy reforms.

Verbatim |
 The UPA 2 government was conceived in corruption – and never really recovered from that taint. Right from the day the election results came in, the back-channel negotiations began for the reappointment of A Raja as Telecom Minister to advance the interests of certain telecom majors (in return for illegal gratification). It was an enterprise which set the stage for India’s biggest corruption scandal and virtually set the political tone for the rest of the four years. As subsequent exposes have established, Manmohan Singh and other key Ministers knew full well that mischief was afoot, but pointedly looked the other way. That was the beginning of the slide, and the UPA government in general – and Manmohan Singh in particular – was mortally wounded from that episode. But rather than press ahead with remedial action, the government slid further into the cesspool of corruption.

Split with Nitish will only boost BJP in Bihar -
