Well Well Well.... Its been a year now , and his "summer of discontent" is not over yet.... and when he got a smack on his face , for an ugly Tsumani article , which gave up his pretence of being a Rational IITian :), i was actually thinking that he would give up being so harsh on us mortals! Well, he seems to be doing actually what he used to speak volumes against viz, Negativity of indian media! Probably the Economist has suddenly become a fair non-communist media that he is using its data for his justification of India Dimming(sic). I am 100% sure that had it been "B" in power , we would have had an article "India Shining" .. I would recommend his U-turn about India's Progress in the "Ripley's - Believe it or Not" section ... Have a positive attitude, even if it means that "B" is not in power... Three Cheers for "C" for a good one year of Governance and MS' laying down a solid foundation for India becoming a superpower by 2020. Agreed MS has his share of failures, but atleast he admits it! Which PM has evaluated himself and his cabinet. I havent heard it anytime,and for sure it would be some time to come , till we hear it from someone else again....

The point is - when even a communist paper mentions something like that, it has to be taken notice of. There were lots of things under the NDA (not "B" alone) that could be called "progress", unlike anything like it under the UPA, read gandhi family. All congress has done in one year was - negate everything that NDA did in their tenure and carry on with the economic policies, including the divestment they cried foul about.
