Without any bias to the article or to the policy of the rupee to appreciate - Congress has ruined the country, and continues to do so!
If you see the history of other countries such as South Africa who had got Independance much later than India - Infrastructure (Roads, Water, Electricity), Beuraucracy, Education & Industry is far ahead of what India is. Come to think of it, we needed a visionary government/individual like Mandela - But were screwed by the Congress. Yes, our law/order is better than South Africa, but come to think of it, everything else is a screw ball!
WRT PC, he is an anti-northindian & would do anything to tax the "babu's".
