"I find it strange that our PM has blamed coalition politics for the stalling of reforms; if I remember correctly initiation of reforms was encouraged by all parties. What has changed in the last 5 years is that the national political opposition to the ruling coalition has been shooting itself in the foot; there is no alternative to the Congress. This political reality is what is leading to inaction: non performance will not lead to being voted out of office since there is no one there to be voted in."

David Fuller's view Many thanks for the excellent editorial above. To the extent that it is mainstream, which I would hope The Times of Hyderabad is, it will help to show more people that India's glass is half full rather than half empty.


Regarding your comments above, democracy is an endlessly frustrating process, but how else will people's views be heard?
