Why condemn. Why admire? Why not evaluate? The preceding generation did not easy access to data. So they could be misled by rival interpretations. Now no interpretations are called for. One may easily compare where our illustrious leaders have carried India, far ahead, or behind or parallel to China, Singapore, Japan, Germany , Korea, etc. , which stood where when India became independent, is a matter of fact rather than fiction. Singapore didn't have not does it have even now, drinking water source. Yet it is not dying of thirst , as are our farmers alleged to be dying by suicide. We have advanced so much in rail communications that Rajdhani, our queen breed of rail service stands dwarfed by China's ordinary rail service, not to speak of bullet trains . May be, what we hear about others is all humbug and what we admire about our leaders is the only biblical truth to trust. Better analyse than just clap or hurl brickbats, in which art we Indians have earned extraordinary expertise. Isn't it?
