I think Nehru was a PM with good economic vision but lacked killer Instinct..Indira was a PM who missed on Economic side but had aggressive instinct which made us victorious in 1971..Atal was a PM with good economic vision and honest heart but again lacked decision making power.....We need Leader who have economic vision like Roosovelt, killer instinct like Churchil and selfless like L.B.Shashri. I was in Indian Army for 5 yrs on Short service commision and now I work as IT Consultant in America since 4 yrs, My experience is that we in India talk a lot, watching from high above and just block orkut..but only few practically take up responsibility.. We blame our Leader like Nehru, indira, Atal etc etc..but we again and again keep on electing Mulayam, mayawati, laloo, sonia etc...
*) Have u ever thought why Indian Army faces shortage of Officers by 20K in a country of billion people..because educated r busy minting money in America and Europe..Why cant Engineers join army for 5 yrs and then go abroad..It is possible I have done it and many of my colleagues in Army and Airforce have done it.. *) Have u ever thought why Indian citizens r getting killed by terrorists in Kashmir and our own media people sit on hunger strike when a single terrorist is killed...because we like to be seen as nice Humans...
So blame lies with us..So wake up Indian Youth...Do Not Blame Leaders..Start Taking responsibility..Start joining Army at least for Short Term..

Yes, I agree we are selfish in a way.I think it would be a great achievement if serving in the military is made mandatory for a period of say 2 years.It would not only bring discipline in all youngsters, but also the military will never be short of officers. But, India(Read politicians) couldnt even give Mr.Kalam a fair chance of contesting the elections, so I think it will take some more time for India to achieve something really great.
