Jaitly or Shushma for PM?
By debashish • Aug 25th, 2003 • Category: PoliticsI have given thought to this many times. Why hang-on to the concept of having ripe but aged policticians as Prime-Minister who could barely walk and talk. Without any offence to the eloquence of Vajpayee, methink he has been too late to enter the office. We need a dynamic young persona for this post with charm that was perhaps oozed out by Rajiv Gandhi. Whichever party comes to power should try keep this in mind. Speaking of BJP, I could safely bet on on Arun Jaitly or Sushma Swaraj as ideal candidates for Prime-ministership. In Congress camp Jairam Ramesh, Salman Khurshid and Kapil Sibbal seem to fit the bill. They are extremely media-savvy, pragmatic and witty speakers. They are intelligent, have strong knees and, above all, are young and dynamic. You would not expect them to stammer, doze at public functions, take age-long pauses while talking to media or pose with terrible hand-shakes and shaky-lips with foreign dignitaries.
What do you think?
Agreed. We need a dynamic young PM. Though I am not a supporter of Congress, I am Glad we had Rajiv Gandhi who initiated IT revolution in India.
My personal fav. for the Post is Sushma.
As per my knowledge I prefer Arun Jaitly as our PM.
Duds both of them. We need someone really dynamic and at this juncture i can’t see anyone like that, present PM is okay. How about Chidambram as PM? Rahul Gandhi does have spark so does Priyanka but we need someone really really dynamic.
