Disregarding the sentiments of the Andhra people, Sonia Gandhi split Andhra Pradesh for the sole purpose of making Rahul Gandhi, the Prime Minister.
But eventually, Rahul Gandhi lost out in the race to Narendra Modi, who became PM amid massive expectations.
People were hopeful of a transformed India after listening to his ‘Dale Carnegie’ style of speeches laced with patriotic fervor. But a year down the line, it is clear that Modi is also another politician and not a leader.
What’s the difference? A politician puts his own interests above that of the people whereas a leader puts the interests of the people ahead of everything else.
Whether it is backing tainted ministers in his cabinet, uttering falsehoods in denying special status to AP or announcing a special package to Bihar for electoral gains, Modi has come across as just another opportunist.
The drama and theatrics he made use of while announcing the package to a packed gallery as he played right to them was truly sickening.
What else can one expect from a ‘Chaiwala’?
