DEBATE (1)

PM Narendra Modi has no baggage , no weakness, and is totally dedicated to the nation round the clock . RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan also has no baggage, no hidden agenda. He is not greedy and he is a teacher with equal dedication. Their finest duo team has given the nation the best of the economics startegy , we ever could think off. Both are bold and courageous in expressing their opinions and making decisions. There were several distractions from party and across, the team leader sri PM has allowed the Sri. Governor to perform to his best of his ability. This shows their common commitment to the nation. therefore its in the best interest of the nation that sri PM keeps him and both must continue to perform and excel.

Adhia be given important assignment

Actually, a man of Hasmukh Adhia's intelligence and energy should be made Cabinet Secretary, Home Secretary or Defence Secretary. He has too little on his plate as Revenue Secretary. Most Revenue Secretaries do not have much work, since work in Revenue is statutorily assigned to the two Boards. The administration of direct taxes and indirect taxes is vested, by law passed by Parliament, in the CBDT and CBEC. So, the energy and talent of an outstanding officer like Adhia cannot find much outlet in Revenue.

Why Kejriwal is obsessed with PM's degrees ?

Why Arvind Kejriwal is obsessed with the degrees Prime Minister holds ? He is spending so much time and energy on this which he can better spend on governing Delhi. How does it matter if PM has or does not have a BA degree. He is doing a better job than some with degrees from IITs or IIMs.It is frustrating to find that our public dialogue has gone so low and simply because you do not like a person you raise all kinds of irrelevant charges against him.
