Six reasons why Arun Shourie is wrong

Well written and to the point. I am an admirer of Arun Shourie too. But I was surprised reading his views, and disagree with them too.

Anytime better than converts like you who for a few alms change the religion and caste given to them by nature.

Arun Jaitley & knowledge of economics?
by asrichr on May 05, 2015 09:11 AM

He might be very intelligent and one of the best orator's the country has ever seen, but his knowledge of economics is seriously suspect given that he thinks rate cuts will make homes affordable. He really needs to go to Econ class 101. When am paying 2 lacs a month as EMI on a home, a reduction in that amount by 600 rs is not incentive enough for me to buy a second home.

Shourie Ji's perceptions
by Kuldeep Chandra on May 05, 2015 07:45 AM

Because of his age and wisdom, whatever Shri Sourie has said should be seen with respect and wherever needed corrective actions be taken and where they appear to be whimsical they may be ignored.
What Shourie Sahib should have appreciated that the current Government has not stopped or curtailed any of the well conceived mega projects which were running from the time of UPA government, unlike UPA government which demolished golden quadrilateral project of Atal Ji. Mr. Modi and Mr. Jaitley have upgraded Manerga and working to make the implementation more value creating and more trans parent. I feel sorry that due credit has not been given to Jan Dhan Yojna which is a visible victory towards bringing around 10 core people beneficiary of the growth of India's economy.
It is immaterial for Shourie Ji to share his perceptions as a common man on TV or share them in a camera in the presence of Modi Ji. He is elderly and what we need notworry where Shories Ji has spoken, we need worry for what he has spoken.

TRUTH
Dharma!

this is the problem with our people...and that is what has been teaching in Bhawavad Gita from A to Z...non attachment and no bondage...we people are sometime so addicted in our own self &(existence) that we cannot come out of it and fall into the trap of cycle of birth and death....this arun shoorie, once go against the mighty indira gandi and the gaint congress....that was good...what bishma did..for the sake of his father he leave the bondange of the throne of hatinapur and give it to the children of satyabati..but as lord krishna says..everything is bondage..good as well as bad..good is a golden chain..bad is a iron chain...but both are chains..now arun shorrie cant escape from his bondage of going against the mighty (modi and NDA) even if it is for name sake or just for the attachment of pointing out mistake in the strong...but arun shorie has to understand that 'truth' is not constant its variable, at that time it was with him when he was against the emergency and indira gandi, but it is not with him now when he is against NDA, like bhisma who kept mumsilent just thinking he is going right and doing correct by not going against the king and his son as per his promise even when the king son is dis honoring a women in the court of hastinapur. similarly arun sorie must wait for the right time to take on the govt. and not just do for the sake of only doing. And regarding politics I mean indian politics, from 1947 to till 2015..no political party is clean (center or sta
