The elections are over.....
The elections are over. The biggest democracy in the world has voted. The results are in. India has decided to outsource the prime-minister job to Italy.
In what could only be termed an extremely unfortunate turn of events, Inida could not find one amongst the billion plus Inidans to lead the country and had to import a prime minister.
Funny thing how parties and their ideologies change. The grand old party of India - the India National Congress which led the 1942 Quit India movement with the battlecry "Foreigners Quit India" has now decided to have an Italian as the prime minister.
Of the two major aliies in the new government (the Congress and the Leftists) expectin any nationalistic sense out of the leftists would be a waste. Afterall in the 1962 Indo China war the leftists had openly supported the communist China and not India. But surely one would have expected more out of the Congress. Maybe they should consider renaming "Indian National Congress". Maybe India can be exchanged to Italian. Or maybe the National part can be dropped, afterall the actions dont speak of much nationalism.
