UPA 3 or NDA 2 ? What is your Choice ?

Our country is facing a long list of Economic and Social problems

Many of these require enacting new legislation

Equal number require strict implementation of existing laws

Solutions of quite a few problems , need bold / innovative and often , unpopular steps demanding deep sacrifices from different sections of our society

All of these need,

Ø    A heightened  sense of co-operation ( National interest comes first )

Ø    Willingness to reach compromises ( win some  / lose some )

Ø    An acute sense of urgency ( get going now / improve along the way )

Unfortunately , during the past few years , hardly any progress could be made towards Political / Social / Economic reforms , since no single political party got an absolute majority in the Lok Sabha

And , unless the Indian voters understand the shortcomings of the Coalition Government and decide to give one party ( it does not matter  which ) , an absolute majority in the forthcoming 2014 national elections , we can expect repetition of the history !

No Government which has to hopelessly depend upon its coalition partners , can carry out the desired reforms

I believe , any major national party ( only Congress and BJP ? ) , which gets less than 275 seats in Lok Sabha , will continue to be blackmailed by its coalition partners

And it would make absolutely no difference whether Rahul Gandhi or Narendra Modi heads UPA 3 or NDA 2 , as the Prime Minister !

Either would be an impotent puppet of “ Coalition Dharma “ where corrupt partners dictate the shape of reforms !

It is simple

Either we give 300 seats to a single party or we continue to suffer for another 5 years !

Remember , an imperfect decision is any day better than No Decision !
