Indian Election 2014 – My Thoughts

The most important aspect of any battle, sometimes even more important than winning is the ability to accept defeat…. The 2014 Indian Election is no different from any other battle… The BJP does not give a better alternative than congress when it comes to corruption, at least from its records…. And probably for a majority of Indian voters, corruption was not the issue, and Narendra Modi always … Continue reading Indian Election 2014 – My Thoughts
