100 days of UPA’s second innings « Hindu focus
- You can’t miss the irony when a government completing its five years in office claims to set right in the next 100 days of its new tenure what it could not do in five years! Well, in this particular and peculiar case, the party in question has governed this country for nearly 54 out of its 62 years of Independence. Yet, the ever gullible voter gets taken in by a 100 days promise!

The late Sharad Joshi, the famous Hindi satirist, once said in the 1980s when Rajiv Gandhi was the prime minister, ‘Do not think that this country is being run by Rajiv Gandhi or by Indira Gandhi or Lal Bahadur Shastri or Nehru. It’s just running and will keep on running Ram Bharose (at God’s mercy).’ Sounds true. Isn’t it?
