I agree with you that the Congress laid the roots, but that is no way justifying the prime question, does the congress have anyone else other than the Gandhi family to lead. They have, but sadly they do not look beyond Gandhi-clan. Typical dynasty politics, which is the reason for the congress meltdown.
Now to the foreigner issue, I am totally with u with regards to Sonia's orgins to lead the country, but the issue here is of her credentials, which I am sorry she does not have.
I maybe wrong, but as far as i know even in the US only naturally born Americans are allowed to contest for presidency, so people talking of her as a foreigner is not a non-issue.
What's her view on the current economic situation, if she says India is not shining, then what are the facts she has to prove otherwise ??, what's her plan to create the jobs that her party has promised, what's her agriculture policy ??, Sonia has no answers, she still depends upon people near her to answer, talks prepared speeches. Let her come on a debate where nothing is prepared and I am sure she will struggle on most answers.
I am sorry we cannot accept such a person to lead our country.
Then we can invite Musharaff to rule India as he was also born in India. He is more Indian than Mother Theresa and Annie Besant. How can this stupid intellectuals draw comparison between Annie Besant and worthless sonia? This guy must remember that Annie Besant and Sister Nivedita did not fight british to become a minister, their motto is purely service to the country. He better read the books written by Annie Besant and sister Nivedita to understand their ideas about India. BJP is not denying that the foundations for development laid by Nehru. They are accusing the nehru followers who totally bankrupted the country. Indians are not fools like you to reject congress.
Mr. Sam Pitroda, can you honestly say why you are an American citizen. It may be the money and your career that attracted you but definitely not the love towards that country. It is the case with Mrs. Sonia Gandhi also. Even if she live here for another 50 years, she will not have the same love and affection for this country that she will be having for Italy. This is the reason why she did not become an Indian citizen for 16 years after her marriage with Sh. Rajiv Gandhi.
You cannot compare Mother Teresa with Sonia Gandhi. Mother Teresa never wanted to rule this country. Moreover, it was her own choice to start the charity work in India. Nobody had invited her to start the charity work in India. Had she ever tried to become a Sonia Gandhi, she also would have faced the same criticism that Sonia Gandhi is facing now.
India is a vast country and have plenty of people much more talented than Sonia Gandhi. The problem is Congress has become a party of one family and is not even utilizing the services of the few talented people left with in the party. Unless they take corrective measures, Congress will become history in few years.
I agree that Smt Sonia Gandhi Loved her near & dear ones,she Loved her Neibhours,she Loved her State People & she Loved her Country People ( Indian),She Sacrifice herself being a politician wife seen too many hardship in life.The seed planted long agao is started giving fruits now and the Rulling party has taken its adventage,pointing out some silly example like she is not an indian it shows the weakness of the party that they are afraid.Jesus Christ was not an Indian but He sacrifice himself for Love & Forgiveness to the Whole World.
The Thoughts of Mr SAM PITRODA are fine he and Our Late Prime Minister was responsible for the Telecom revolution what we are seeing today. We donot have safe water to drink Water supply in the towns and villages are supplied once in a week or so and some villages donot have drinking water, so where are we shining simply patting our backs is not shining? We can shine only we good good food nad good drinking water leave apart clothing and Housing.
