The events of the past few months must have been distressing to a lot of Indians especially the way the UPA government has handled the issues of price rise and OBC reservations. I was recently watching an interview with Mr.A.B.Bardhan- CPI's general secretary who said that it was time for the Left to reconsider their support to the UPA government. Its been 3 years since the UPA came to power on the plank of doing something for the Aam Aadmi. The Left's discomfort is understandable considering the fact that they have a constituency to defend especially with the General elections in 2 years time. This is the right time for them to start the process and expect the process to end sometime later next year.
What is however appalling is the way UPA is still running the government without doing anything in the last few months. If the Aam Aadmi is not too happy with the increase in prices and the UPA allies are also not exactly ecstatic about its performance, Isn't it time for the PM to resign? Or does it mean that he wants to go on like this forever? What is especially troubling is his inability to influence even a spent force like Arjun Singh from shooting off his mouth on issues that require serious debate. India will do better to have its PM on the list of Time's most influential persons rather than the President of his party.
