DEBATE

How do you see the two most powerful leaders of the World - Donald Trump and Narendra Modi ?

Some people see Donald Trump as Narendra Modi of the USA. Like Modi in 2014, they say, Trump touched the raw nerve of the US citizens in 2016 to win a decisive victory.

If Modi, with his magnetic electoral campaign, won an absolute majority for his party for the first time in 2014, Trump also staged a spectacular campaign to win the top job for himself.

DEBATE (1)
For trump his own family along with whole USA is a family.He very well knows the value of family. When you enterUSA , they investigate and give you port of entry, as you are entering in to USA family is the biggest example.
RK

DEBATE (2)
How absurd the argument that Narendra Modi has no one to fall and Trump has got his son, daughter and son in law to move around him. Is there any truth that you tend to become corrupt if you live with your children and you become honest if you do not. President Obama lived with his family in White House and no scandal or corruption charges took place. The author should apply common sense and logic and not irrational conclusion.
Radhikai

Think it Over
1. NRI participation doubles as they want to know what is going on. As dil hai hindustani. NRI using INDIAN banks as their safe deposits. They are interested in knowing whether they should continue or not.If at all the policies are favourable ?

2. Like FDI in share market are keeping themselves away.
3.Amount parked in Swiss bank is in circulation and profit earned from imports exports and trading activities as per laws.

4.Goverment minimum involvement and simplifying by one tax and focusing on security and less time taking in any matter i.e. courts, Goverment formalities and decision improvement will improve the scenario of the country.

5.Brain drain can not be converted to brain gain. It will go on .How you can minimize is to be seen.

Chinese are always greedy
Chinese are people who are greedy and always very greedy when it comes to money. When Narendra Modi had gone to attend the G-20 Summit in Yangzhou in China they charged hotel bills worth Rs.25 lakhs. When Chinese PM came to attend the BRICS Summit in Goa everything free was provided to him.

Appoint sensible PIO
The university should appoint sensible and humane persons to the post of PIO. The current insensitive and inhumane PIO should be sacked immediately without any enquiry and any sympathy.
