I am not Indian so I am not in a position to judge the political scenario in India. However, I do read the news and follow up on interesting stuff. I still believe the situation can' t be that bad where people will say there is no good or true political leader in India. All countries go through this phase some time or the other. One must stop to consider that India has the second highest population in the world and it will never be easy to manage. I would not deny there will be unscrupulous politicians but lets us not judge all by the wrong doings of some. Think about the most powerful country in the world ........think about the crticisms that Bush got.
This is only my opinion.
Dr. Abdul Kalaam and Baba Ramdev are true visionaries..!! But talking about a political leader.. I must say we need to define what do we mean by a TRUE leader.. who shows results.. who brings about change in indo-pak relations.. who can control terrorism.. who can do something to boost education everywhere in India.. who can make our system corruption free.. or who can play politically with rest of the nations to develop infrastructure, etc, etc..
We can't expect al changes coming by a single leader.. so what I believe is there is a TRUE leader in each and every one of us.. If we are ready to bring the change to our nation.. we might have a True India leading the world..!!
Vande Matram!!
Political will is considered crucial for progress of a country. When he is given power, he can transform the country. I do not approve of how PVN functioned as Prime Minister but he had the political will to bring Manmohan Singh as Finance Minister. The result we all see today.
Therefore, when we say true political leader - we mean a leader with political will to take the country towards progress. We are not speaking about his weaknesses but his strength to take the country forward. That way, I see many persons both a the state and central government. They may be corrupt but they can lead the executive/legislature towards adopting progressive policies. I can name many in the central government. Sonia Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee (ladies first), Manmohan Singh, Pranab Mukherjee, Kapil Sibal, Chidambaram... the list will go on.
Every human has his/her weakness. No one is perfect. If we allow him or her to work in strength area and not weakness area, there will be progress and more productivity. Unfortunately, we have a tendency to seek weakness in a leader than strength.
Mr Dikshit, Being bachelor is not true reason for being serviceable. If you think so why not you also remain bachelor to serve country. mahatma gandhi should not have married and mahatma Buddha wasted his life. and also dont you think then Ram was not good enough to serve India. And Krishna he had millions of Gopikas, how could he rule India. Als..
Your question itself is a paradox. Can you tell me "true" in true sense. When you mentioned "true political leader", you probably had in mind leaders such as "Mahatma Gandhi", "Dadabhai Naoroji", etc. If you are seeking parallel in the modern times, equating their stature, there is none.
In the modern times, you can take Dr. Abdul Kalam as the self-less, Nationalist Leader, who had instilled confidence in the younger minds. Dr. Manmohan Singh, in true sense, has a tremendous vision, but he is in the midst of his political mentors, who possess greater skills in politiking than him. Therefore, he can not all the time be acting in a coercive and persuasive manner to convert his point of view into action. Hence, he is rated 3 in the 5-point scale.
Atalji and Dr Kalam, I found true leader and visionary. They realy wanted to do something for the country. Dr Manmohan Singh is also good and visionary but his choice really does not reflect in his decisions. Narendra Modi is also coming up.
In future also we will get some good young leaders after their certain life in politics. Indian politics is not that worst as we seen in our movies, sometime it happens in Bihar, but Bihar, UP, Westr Bengal and Asam can not represent whole country.

Hi Devi, Great! I loved your article. Your name itself resembles your true thoughts. In India "Devi" means goddess, mother, and a respected divine woman. Keep up the spirit. |
