Hello Dear Indian Friends,

I am very keen into looking after political changes in India, where there was drastic changes in past 3 years in India. It started with Previous govt's series of corruption, Nirbhaya issue. Then IAC movement started, AAP was hyped above BJP. After dissolving of Delhi assembly by AAP, BJP became a hope for India's future and gave majority to rule India for next 5 years. While everyone looked at Modi as a savior, People expected that he will dissolve all past failures by UPA and make fresh amendments. But new govt followed the same like, fuel prices were hiked without govt's intervention. Fixing of price of fuel is still in manufacturers hold. Rail fares was hiked by UPA and which was amended by this govt.

Sensex have reached from 20k to 25k. Foreign investors have invested huge once the new govt taken into charge. But the Iraq war made big mess between this.. which made financial unstability in past 2 weeks. Budget session will be tough thing for the new government in this current situation.

My feel is that this government is making itself debt free to establish the infrastructure at par developed countries standards. It doesnt want to bear financial subsidies on fuel, Electricity, farmers, food, free items, etc..! what do you think? can you write your view on this Govt's future / your expectation / observation.. etc..!

I think it is too early to comment on the performance of this Government. The Sensex going up or down is not a true reflection of the Indian market. The Sensex is based on the perception of the investors and that is only a for-profit motive. Using the Sensex to say that there will be development is not a reliable message.

Anyway, I am not going to jump into any conclusions until the first term has passed. And to be honest, I do not care if they invest billions of INR in the market. I will base my opinion on how it has affected me - either positively or negatively.

India
$918.4 billion (USD) national debt / 1,269,000,000 people = $723.71 (USD) debt per citizen.

United States
$17.5 trillion (USD) national debt / 318,009,960 people = $55,245.00 (USD) debt per citizen.

^ If you lay $1 bills on top of each other, the pile of United States debt would be 1,918,656 km, or 1,192,197 miles high!

2 months gone..! still need to see the actions of new Govt. I think they brought discipline in the staff of parliament (Top Indian Govt Office). But need to implement the same to village panchayat office level. I have heard that this new govt is clearing all old files kept pending by previous Govt. Lets wait and watch.

I feel sad when Indian govt voted against Israel, who defended India in all troubles it faced. May be it voted because India surrounded by Muslim dominated countries, do not want to have issues due to this and India is depending on them for its fuel.

I hope India gets a hand on its corruption issues. Some of the videos I've seen where police officers literally beat truckers to death for not paying them their bribes were just awful.

I think they have started in the right direction by improving the efficiency of the Government machinery. But there were a few negatives too, most importantly the 'Indianisation' of the Gujarat school syllabus. Overall, I think they are on the right track but this is going to be a slow, at times painful, recovery process. I just hope they can rein in the right-wing fundamentalists from running amok!

I am afraid our fight against corruption is a long drawn-out one. It depends on the collective efforts of the citizens. That is yet to gain full-steam. There were some sporadic agitations/movements, but overall, the 'awakening against corruption' us yet to achieve critical mass.
