More reforms,less opposition-Modi's magic wand

Utilizing his strategical and powerful vision encapsulated with political acumen, Modi has proven the hypothesis that he will be one of the unconquerable leaders of the world in the days to come.  Started with seeking friendship cum business cooperation from Asian leaders and then overcome the resistive forces of  tantalizing administrative machineries of the USA by his assertive perseverance and just in the recent past, he showered his frenzied eloquence in Sydney, Australia, he proves that he is indomitable. In short, from Ahmedabad to Madison square garden and to the Allphones Arena in Sydney, wherever he had visited, all were charmed with  his killing instincts, when he presented India as a supreme power. In the domestic front coupled with a triumphant overseas visit, Modi is now so gallant that speeding of reforms and new policies for the purpose of our country’s growth will not be a tiresome and inconclusive task, as it happened in the last two decades.

 

In the past six months, Modi’s Herculean efforts supplemented by his power of extraordinary diligence has conditioned almost all Indian’s thought process that Modi would be the precursor of fanatic reforms, which are in the pipeline and under incubation for quite some time.  On one hand, most of us have no inkling of negativity of Modi’s capability, but on the other hand, peoples' expectations are so sky-high that many apprehensions hover the mind of the people whether Modi will be really able to covert   their aspiration level into realty.   

 

We have a history of high hopes and desires that smashed our positiveness and ultimately floored us to the ground in the past. It occurred in 1962, 1975, 1996, 2004 and also in 2009.  So, any more thunderous rat-tat will not only bury our hopes, but the darkness of our desires will smolder and continue for a long time. Hopefully, Modi will not allow to happen the same. He touched the issues of reforms in all his overseas meetings, making a cause of upliftment of poor and economically weaker sections. If anybody juxtaposes all his speeches, it is evident that he now wants a radical change in favor of reforms and only reforms.  For that matter, he is desirous to obtain public’s unanimous support, which he is getting also.

 

But today’s public is not like an earlier day’s mute spectator.  They know what is what? If Modi, by putting all his efforts cannot fructify the reforms into a benefit for the common people, then he has to face an eclipse and no matter how much efforts he might have put, public gaze will be acting like a sharp weapon.  The need of the hour that he has  to translate his vision into reforms and to fulfill the same through his colleagues in the ministry and the powerful bureaucrats behind the curtain. They must show their agility and spontaneity and accept their leader’s direction.  Modi has to perform this act for the enhancement of public welfare and take all the pains to market these reforms like a marketing  whiz-kid.

Modi has to inculcate a change in the perception of the people to advocate for more and more reforms with an occasional withdrawal of unwanted   subsidies and benefits hitherto enjoyed by many, there could be a political hullabaloo from the opposition parties and  If Modi can sustain these unpleasant situations exercising his grit and  power of his tough mind as he is, then bringing changes through various reforms will not be an arduous task. And in that situation, Modi will be treated as a visionary leader, who would be the main guiding force to change India’s destiny in the remaining part of the 21^st century.  He is very much aware that it won’t be a very rosy path to construct a private sector led capitalist economy within the boundary of procedures and norms laid down in Indian market, but if he can do so, then it will be a miraculous achievement.

 

The world leaders, namely Deng Xiaoping, Thatcher & Lee Kuan Yew did not wait for the public’s support because they were confident to produce the results. But for Modi, considering the sharp and negative comments often bestowed upon him clubbed with the vituperative and vindictive pinches of opposition parties and the media, he may play some back foot to stop the reforms midway.  So, he has to develop a strong platform slowly to augment the reforms, increase the base of the value system of his party, and advocate the benefits of various reforms, particularly in the long run and gather the support of the media.  While doing so, he may have to displease some section even his own party’s stalwarts, opposition forces, but he has to be steadfast to increase the action plan to continue the path of reforms. He is on a path of bending tracks with so many jigsaws and so he needs the support of each and every citizen to fulfill his mission.  He has been assiduously aspiring to connect his political philosophies and scattering the same with the national and international market.  How far his efforts will deliver, it all depends on every individual.

 

In India, the present period is classified as a Modi phobia, but only phobia cannot bring in the desired changes.  Modi has to build-up a case for various reforms openly and publicly. His astuteness, political acumen and vision will be able to translate all these reforms into reality and benefit to his countrymen when he will be able to lead all the forces supporting the reforms effectively and perpetually. At the same time, people have to support him continually  to ensure that all the reforms must take an upswing and to support the cause of growth instead of showering criticism or finding faults with him.

 

With respect to various reforms, as now, Modi is plodding and sometimes with a brisk walk on the tightrope, he is planning  for a more effective governance and that would be an ideal way to curb his opposition forces and be in the political power for a long time.
