The Underachievers

Consequently this has turned out to be one of the best examples for a tit for tat situation...yes i am talking about the recent cover pages of both the TIMES and OUTLOOK magazines ...The first one call upon the 
Indian prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh as an Underachievers ,while the later which is a  retaliation to the allegation by the TIMES describes Barack Obama as an Underachievers........The Later one is just a teaser of the upcoming issue of the Outlook magzine 

Is Barack Obama the real Underachievers or Dr Manmohan is the real Underachievers ??Shocked and Surprised ,I could possibly think of nothing but the fact that these are two people who are elected to lead the first one is the President of one of the most developed countries of the world (USA)while the later is the PM of the one billion + people of developing India .The two are highly qualified and well versed in there respective fields.The above being stated as Underachievers could raise many ques here in east as well in west society also.

But i believe the real action is yet to come when the latest issue of outlook arrives on the stands.I could possibly think of ,it is then when the real comparison will start and we might have a chance to look on to some stats relating once achievements so far .As if for now we can keep only one sided view

Although It has become one of the most discussed topic on the twitter between twitterites .But still there is no possible answer to this .Is it because of the 2G scam or due to the  FDI bill which India decline ?? that these allegations have come up from west

I brought the eg of 2G Scam and FDI Bill because according to me these two are classified as one of the turning points admist in Indian Politics for the time being .(I Used ad-mist and time being because these too shall also fade away from the memories  like the Bofor scandal)
The scam shook the nation and spoiled India's global image and for sure would have discouraged future foreign investments thus producing a hurdle in economic growth .The other example i took was the FDI Bill which India decline Possibly not because of the political reasons but due to the fact that passing such bill would cost us our sovereignty an economic Independence in the retail or trade sector

Its true that thing do not go as planned always and looking the overall global situation it is rather quite obvious  that there is a chaos everywhere .So what if obama could not fully pull out USA from the resession for which he has promised jobs and hopes to american or Dr  Manmohan who is burderened with the scams and nuclear deal pressures

The question is quite clear but it seems there is no perfect answer to it .

One can now simply think of the fact that as to why this allegation has been put up at this ungodly hour  in front of world via this media..when there are turmoils in the politics of both  the nations . Obama who is facing stiff competition back in states finds hard to compete for 2nd term  presidential elections , while here in India we can see that congress led by Dr Manmohan is unable to keep pace with the opposition 

The question that comes up now is why he (Dr Manmohan) is being categorize as an Underachiever ? Is it because of his silent one expression image or being classified as a puppet or a  man in shadows ..One could think of as many reasons as one could ,but fact is that  action speaks louder than words . With  Dr Manmohan as our Pm the country has seen a growth of 9.6% speaking statistically  . The so called Underachiever tag has raised many questions doubting Dr Manmohan credibility and efficiency .Is he the right man the job or not ??Thus putting a question on every Indian it is after all we who have elected him not once but twice ...For sure we all know that initially Mrs Sonia gandhi was destined to be our prime minister if congress wins  but due to some unavoidable circumstances Dr Manmohan was the chosen one to lead our 1Billion + .Ever since the day he was chosen ,he happens to be categorized as a mere puppet whose strings are controlled by Mrs Gandhi.Though one cannot deny the fact that he is a highly qualified Economists and has previously held many important such post in the Ministry  

Viewing the current scenario Globally i could possibly figure out the fact that  West is fighting for its survival presently and also this situation has come after many decades  perhaps after WW II. Whereas India has always fought for its survival but over the time it has  shaped better itself to survive for such situation in this global turmoil.West will see many more turmoil when India being conservative in its approach in economy stands less affected much before it did up till now .

Perhaps it is the west who now needs to reboot I should say

  1. Perhaps it is the west who now needs to reboot I should say. It sums up all. when the Govts. are in election mode, not much is expected from them to take strong measures to shore up the economies.
