Ever since I had written Part 2 in this Modi trilogy, I have been searching for information regarding the Congress's achievements in the last decade. What I came across was a slew of shocking facts about their scams and scandals since their occupancy to power, not just in the past 10 years, right from our Independence days that would have really shaken the core to the core! I am sure that the sizes of the scams are such that if they are kept one above the other, it would easily eclipse Mt. Everest as the highest peak in the world!!
Nevertheless, the UPA Government had implemented welfare measures like the MGNREGA, RTI, RTE to name a few. I might hear certain people sniggering that those are the only few good things that they had done during their regime. I leave that up to you. However, things started to fall apart drastically with the UPA Government's return to power from 2009 to 2014 which was completely marred by their leadership to take effective actions against those who swindled our economy in broad daylight.
Likewise, Manmohan Singh also had his own share of foreign trips during his staying in power:
2004 - 2009: 35 countries visited
2009 - 2014: 38 countries visited
Note:
"Countries visited" means that he has visited a single country on more than one occasion.
The total expenditure for 10 years is Rs 699 crores for Manmohan Singh alone.
The blow by blow account of the money spent is as follows:
2004 - 2009: 301.95 crores
2009 - 2014: 397.35 crores
Unless, there is a relatively strong, stable, steady, corrupt-free, non-volatile and a smooth-sailing business environment, the investors will think twice before pooling their resources into another country's economy. Unfortunately, our country was plagued by all these factors which lead us to have our Current Account Deficit to totter perilously at - $88 Billion at one point of time in the UPA term. To put some more facts into picture, it was + $8 Billion when the Congress took over the reins from BJP in 2004. Certain individuals really took 'India Shining' to 'India Stinking' in their lust to hold on to power by turning a blind eye to everything just like Dhritarashtra!
Instead of calling the shots, our ex-PM was dancing to the tunes as played by the leadership. My best guess is that it should be Bhangra! But, one thing is certain. He wouldn't have called RaGa to groove on the floor because:
Casting aside my poor dance jokes to one side, all I can say is that the right person of impeccable stature as MMS was exactly at the wrong place at the wrong time. If he had shown a little bit of spine, he could have ensured our nation to be on the right side of the tracks. Sadly, it is not just the Congress but the whole nation which got deeply affected by their indifferent attitude.
Fortunately, the sun is shining brightly upon our country once more in the form of our PM Narendra Modi. Though NaMo is 5 feet 7 inches, he has shown exemplary courage and character when he had to face the tall orders left behind by the previous government. NaMo is running a taut ship that is sparkling high on efficiency and transparency which will give the investors the much-needed confidence and conviction to make India shine again.
If one person who can shatter Nehru's record of being the longest serving PM of India for 17 years, it has got to be none other Narendra Modi. Charismatic. Inspirational. Transformational. Leading from the front. Full of limitless and abundant energy. Extremely Dynamic nature. Most importantly, he has age to his advantage. Don't Don't. I know what you are thinking. How can these personal traits alone enable him to beat Nehru's long standing record? You will get your answers soon.
Can NaMo break Jawaharlal Nehru's record?

Will NaMo have a 3rd term?
Yeah. You read it right as Narendra Modi is sure-fire on his way to win the elections in 2019 and occupy the coveted position till 2024. The reasons are pretty simple, straightforward and attributable from two fronts namely:
a) From NaMo and his party's perspective
b) From opposition's perspective
a) From NaMo and his party's perspective:
I would like to know which PM, read Indian PM!, calls up an IAS officer in Tripura and asks him to improve the condition of the NH @ 10 pm. Some people could say that he is trying to pull off a charade by creating a positive image. Is it? How many times has he relentlessly and tirelessly flown from one country to country just for the betterment of our country? Infact, he has transferred certain people of questionable integrity as soon as he had come to power in 2014.
A chain is as strong as its weakest link. He has ensured that every person in his cabinet is accountable for their roles and actions by giving them controlled freedom to perform and accomplish their designated duty to the nation. When you don't have control, command, speed and direction, the ship is like without a rudder. NaMo has ensured that he has covered his bases with dependable and go-to people around him who match his thinking process and execution. It is only when the ministers act responsibly and quickly can we have sound decisions like the plethora of welfare schemes that are benefitting millions of our brothers and sisters across our nation. Infact, Onno Ruhl, World Bank's Country Director in India has acknowledged that India is an economic power. Vast contrast from the position we were in in 2014. All thanks to the resolute, persistent, dedicated and committed efforts of Modi and Co.
b) From Opposition's perspective:
At one end of the spectrum, NaMo is inking deals left,right and centre with the world and fast turning our country into a solid copper-bottomed economy. But, RaGa disappeared from the face of the Earth for two whole months on his personal escapades.
I am not saying RaGa is a bad choice to lead the Congress party. But, instead of adopting a struthious attitude that everything is all sunshines within their party, it is high time that they pull up their socks to solve their fundamental problem that needs to be addressed like what's going to be the vision, their short-term goals, how is it going to be achieved, timeline for it, the right people for the jobs and the most important of all, Can RaGa go heads on with NaMo?
I will bet my bottom dollar, sorry rupee!, that if Modi takes charge of the Congress party even now, he will bring a massive and radical turnaround that they can win the elections in 2019. Everyone knows that's not going to happen. So, I will let my flights of fancy to fly by in la-la land peacefully!
I am neither a political analyst nor a person with active political experience. However, I am dead cert that no one hasn't forgotten the interview RaGa had given The Times Now with Arnab Goswami. He made a mockery out of himself and his party in the interview. He still continues to do so in the UP rallies by targeting Modi, his suits and selfies instead of focussing on what really matters to those people - a better life for them and their children.
Now, moving on to another relevant topic. The one question which hit me like a boomerang last week was: One crore spent for teas and samosas? This is one tea party which even the Americans would not endorse in their lives!

Likewise, many people are wondering how a single day has not gone where our PM hasn't been dragged into finger-pointing. It's like before going to bed every night, honest embodiment Kejriwal and his wonderful team brainstorm vigorously all the things that they would blamestorm Modi the next day in interviews. The day is not that far when Modi might be blamed for global warming because of people's farting!
Instead of concentrating his time and efforts on attacking Modi, if he had spent his time on worthwhile projects that actually results for the good of the Delhi people would have surely saved him from tweets such as:
Sadly, that's not the case. If I were Modi, I would sit in my room, switch on the TV, sip on my cup of tea, no pun intended!, and laugh to my heart's content on the comedies that a certain empowered person and an extremely fine gentleman wearing Anna Hazare cap does on a daily basis to give me my much needed relaxation after a long day's fruitful work. Unfortunately, I am not Modi and I am 100% positive that our PM has better and more constructive things to do rather than watch some jokers and waste his valuable time.
Because of the deep penetration of mobile phones and smart phones, the people in our country are becoming increasingly aware day by day especially the youth who occupy an important chunk of the Indian population. It would be only prudent that some politicians battle out their elections on developmental issues that can mark and make a significant change in a person's life rather than employing cheap and below-the-belt old techniques like slandering, belittling etc. that is bound to get them nowhere.The era of mudslinging may not be over completely but is almost likely to disappear soon enough when people are slowly understanding that the progress is the only way forward in the long-run.
Considering all these factors - what NaMo and his sedulous squad are doing, how the oppositions are playing their cards, it's very evident that NaMo has bright chances of becoming the first ever PM in Indian history to outdo Nehru's achievement.
Conclusion:
Despite this is the age of Instant Gratification, a person is really a fool if they think that a flower will bloom from the very next day onwards when they have planted the sapling only today. Certain things have their own time to materialize productive results, when nurtured with great care and created a conducive environment, and no human being has the power to make it happen instantly. The phrase 'Nothing is Impossible' must come with a BIG * on its top!
NaMo is exerting tremendous effort on his part, day in and day out, by pulling out all the stops to make 'India Shining' and 'India Smiling' at the same time. All people need is a little patience as the results of his hard labors are manifesting itself with rich dividends that I have stated in my previous and the current blog as well.
I am not sure what the vision of Congress was when they were in power since 1947. But, if they are continuing in the same fashion as now, the Congress dynasty would die nasty! unless they take appropriate measures to clear their clutter. So, all that's left for the Congress is to sit and watch the majestic National Flower of India to blossom our nation to her original glory and splendour courtesy of NaMo's single-minded involvement - A Robust and Rounded Indian Economy that positively intends for the well-being of all the people.
