We know from experiences with congress,dmk,jd(s), Shiv sena, TDP , Biju JD, Laloo yadav party, mulayam yadav party, ramadoss party to name a few that the money involved is so much that the parents think it is important to destroy the ambitions of partymen and prop their children as heirs. But to do it at 19 yrs is a SHAM, SHAME and dishonour to the pakistani people. One way is to establish term limits on people who control the money for the party and the prized PM'ship. Two (full) terms max or ten yrs of premiership. Thats it. It is important to break this cycle so new ideas and new people will do something to leave their mark in history

The term limits are for the indian condition otherwise, our nation is doomed.
PVN brought about liberalisation,IT revolution and ended the violence in punjab, Vajpayee completed massive infrastructure projects and initiated the peace process with pakistan on our terms. Manmohan singh ( in favourable press) say is quietly bringing about a revolution in the farming sector and our seaports. Even Rajiv who was PM for a single term initiated the telecom revolution. The combined effect of this has left india better. Pakistan should understand that making emotional decisions like this will hurt in the future

Why do you believe that the term of government leaders should be limited? Fidel Castro has been President of Cuba ever since one can remember. Hugo Chavez would like to be President for life. Despite more than sixty years of politics, our dear Jyoti Basu is still active!

Fidel Castro is a dictator and Jyoti basu should have ended after two terms as CM. He did not. WB is seeing the same set of ideas implemented for eternity. For good or bad, see how WB compares with other indian states.
