the author mr. bhadrakumar travels the length and breadth of the planet to find a solution but misses the no. 1 cause which is right in nai dille. it is quite simple that india's foreign policy is in doghouse. india does not have an elected prime minister. ok, i will repeat. india does not have an elected prime minister. the goi is held at ransom, for lack of better word, by an italian lady who is clearly ineligible to lead as pm. in any other democracy this lady would have been kicked out, but in india she runs off to foreign countries riding roughshod over mea and the pm. she is not accountable and yet takes over the conduct business. heck you can't run a small shop like that. the answer is very simple: let's have our democracy and govt back from the italian.
