3 yrs and still counting...

Today i chanced upon a NDTV news report,in which they gave a report about the various Editors appraisal of the incumbent DPA ministers. So this as good a topic to post as anything else,i thought and here i am in front of my monitor trying to organize my random thoughts.

So here goes, my personal appraisal of the DPA and its ministers:

Three years prior to this day, i was one of the many political observers who had serious doubts on how far this alliance will go.An alliance between the political "Toms and Jerrys",they called it.There is no questioning the above fact, as an alliance between the Left and the Congress was and is not far from what was mentioned in the previous sentence. My dad, being a leftie, was fairly convinced and was pretty sure that the alliance was going to last and can and will be more efficient than the previous government.He had reason to think so, not the least because he felt ,the alliance between the capitalists and communists had saved the world from the most venumous peril that has hit the earth so far, in the form of Hitler, during WWII. Thinking the centrist way, i t would seem that my dad was inordinately harsh on the BJP by comparing them to the Nazis.Yeah! , very true.

Today my dad reminded me that his words are coming true.He said "The alliance will last and it will have a greater efficiency".Last,it will, but with greater efficiency,i have serious doubts. This is primarily because of the implementation of the 27% reservation for the OBC s in Central institutions for higher education, and the controversial SEZ policy.
