India's Maladies Sat Sharma

India is a lumbering, elephantine State that cannot be expected to pivot around its heels, irrespective of the

capability, intentions and skills of its present mahout. That may explain why it took 67 long years to resurrect

prime minister-ship by electing for the first time a deserving astute down to earth eminently-suited politician who

had tasted poverty and hard work and seems to be the one to relate to citizens' aspirations and needs. He possesses

vision and necessary will to transform a fledgling country into a mega economy and world power.
