Since you have asked, let me try few achievements of UPA through the resignation of its ministers (and the associated reasons):

1. They fired 'A Raja' after he was caught in telecom scam. Well known to everyone.
2. They had to fire 'Mama ji' (Pawan Kumar Bansal) after he was found selling Railway board positions in lieu of money.
3. They asked 'Abhishex Manu Singhvi' to hide for some time after he was caught selling Judge positions in lieu of sex.
4. Dayanidhi Maran - This DMK leader resigned as textile minister in July 2011, over allegations that as telecom minister, he arm-twisted the promoter of mobile service provider Aircel to sell out to Malaysian telecom firm Maxis.
5. Shashi Tharoor - Though there were no direct corruption charges against him, Tharoor got into problems after then IPL commissioner Lalit Modi alleged that Sunanda Pushkar, who later became Tharoor's wife, had equity stakes in Rendezvous Sports World (RSW), heading the consortium that owns the Kochi team in Indian Premier League (IPL).
6. Virbhadra Singh - Resigned from the post of minister of small, micro and medium industries after a court in Himachal Pradesh framed corruption charges against him and his wife, Pratibha. They had been booked for alleged misuse of his official position and criminal misconduct when Virbhadra Singh was the chief minister of Himachal Pradesh in 1989.
7. Law minister Ashwani Kumar resigned in 2013 -after the Supreme Court came down heavily on the CBI for allowing the law ministry to vet the draft of CBI probe report on Coalgate. Again a kind of corruption.


...................and so on... !!!
 
Indian economy went into slump ONLY AFTER 2008 and we all know what happened then. Now if you open up your neutral(atleast claimed) eyes you will realise India did MUCH BETTER than any of the developing economies. We were going strong until our most exporting nations crashed in Europe. And still, our growth did not halt.

UPA did not do any great thing, yes we need a few more neutral folks like you to create some more negativity.

Its not that simple. Subsidies always existed on diesel and LPG. Try to dig in deeper. There are other factors.

Funny that you blame CAD on Modi as well. I didn't know that UPA policies depend on Modi & Moditards (whatever that mean). UPA can put country on financial risk just because Moditards make noise? I feel pity for such Govt.
If you have CAD you must be borrowing from someone against the asset of this country how wise is that?

If you ask me 3 things UPA did good. I might be able to list them. But if you ask me 3 things which they did great I will struggle. Sorry.

Three great achievements of UPA:
1. Highest number of scandals which were never heard in the history since independence.
2. Maximum number of corrupt ministers in any cabinet
3. Never seen a PM who continues on his post despite the fact mentioned at sr. number 1 and 2 above

Simple- freebies and subsidies. When government tries to pull up these freebies Moditards shout saying why no free cilenders or cheap diesel and when they do they are accused of deficit. You know it well.

No matter how hard i try to think of 3 great deeds of Congress...I can't recall anything. Though, i believe most of us have studied the Indian History. And we can surely recall the Blunders we are still paying for. Some of these are: Nehru Taking the Kashmir issue to the UN, Indo-China War. The similar mistake repeated by Nehru's Daughter during 1971, wherein she trusted a Pakistani for his word. Rajeev gandhi sending forces in Sri Lanka. And, mind it...these blunders have nothing to do with Modi! Forget corruption, Had the Congress leaders showed some good judgement in these issues, they would had something to come up with. Don't know how long people of India would have to bear this Dynasty? Let congress introduce some New Central leadership, somebody who is capable of leading the Party & giving good Governance. We would change our opinions.
 
Our eyes see what we want to see with our mindset; may be you are happy to see CMs and PMs after massacres in spite of being questioned by the then PM of India, that is why?

Though the fact you can criticize government being biased and call PM weak, Kejriwal can protest in front of ministries cursing government, Modi-tards can pull cheap cartoons on relected PM is a sign of a matured democracy which has been under Congress for most part of India and you should appreciate that, at least.

I really thought that for once you will have a sincere debate. First you said that because of Modi UPA cant remove subsidies and freebies (Yes Modi forced you to pass Food bill as well) and this subsidies are sole reason for CAD. Then when I asked you to look into other reasons you made a sharp turn and said before 2008 all was OK and the finances are bad because of global recession.


  • Do you really believe that Current Account Deficit (CAD) is because of Subsidies to Diesel and LPG? Then show us how. Subsidies existed before UPA as well and even yesterday I heard UPA announced more subsidies.
  • If all was good before 2008 then why UPA -1 had current account deficit and high inflation.
  • Every government will face some external challenges and many of them are out of their control as well but that cannot be used as an excuse for poor policies. Otherwise I could argue that before 2008 world economy was OK and hence GDP was growing. There was no contribution from UPA. Even NDA had its own challenges like USA imposed lot of sanctions on us after nuclear test. Even Chidambram has admitted that yes there were some bad decisions made but he put the blame of Parnab Mukherjee.

You pasted that data here so the onus is really on you to answer the questions about the data. You don’t have to but you are expected to.

First you called me neutral and now you blaming me of creating negativity. It’s ok but if I would have pasted some advertisements of UPA like Rajat and yourself I would have been most positive and bright individual in your eyes. If you think UPA really did something great then list it brother why blame others. I give you some examples what is great. When Vajpeye ji stood up to USA after Nuclear test and didn’t give in despite the sanctions that is great. Listen to his speech after the test you will feel proud. When Indira ji attacked Pakistan and created a new country Bangladesh despite USA military threat that was great.

Good; but the Indian National Congress is not that what it used to be earlier ! In earlier days it did commendable work to strengthen the democratisation of institutions to represent popular will of the people.

It has developed into a nominated hierarchy set up from the top level to local level since the days of Mrs. Indira Gandhi instead of elected one.

Desi, you are lucky!!!... I can help you with one more achievement of Khaangress - a major part of UPA-II. This is published in today's Jagran.

See, Khaangress' own Member of Parliament is stating this !! What more authentic source once can have :)

.... and before you say that he has not named "Khaangress" anywhere, let me remind you that in Both Haryana and Center, it is Khaangress govt.

I do not know which school of economics you went to bro but visit again, India is an economy based on gold standards.

I like you being sarcastic and prompt on commenting that fast without even asking google baba :).

As I said earlier I have little knowledge on economy and you might have more than anyone as you are very supportive of existing govt. build up on scams.

BTW..India is NO more gold based "The country NO more provide gold as security for loan; other securities can and are pledged to get the loan"

Here is something to enlighten you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_standard

Also your Congress govt. dumped the gold standard long back, don't worry still they are still an awesome party. You won't get my logic until you leave congress holy book of corruption.

I thought you are against BJP and that's why you support Congress (less corrupted by your parameter) but It seems you read Congress book of corruption very well and your analysis of 30 days old NON Congress govt. points. you only and only want Congress to rule until .....

Dost, Competition is good for the country let the non congress come to the power and have patience to see if they compete on corruption or against it. I heard you will get better option this time :)

My 2 cents: Achivements of UPA in Haryana

1. Congress govt initiated inquiry on Khemka for speaking against Vadara
2. Congress suspended Sanjeev Chatuvedi (wistle blower) got rescued by president

Shahi kaha bhai, This is what will happen if the focus is purely on saving govt. It's shame on Hooda govt. that his home minister (Kanda saab) and other ministers assets have grown more than 4000 times within their first 5 years. Second term ka to pata nahin.
 
Recently there is one popular advertisement Rajv Pariwas Yojna on Tele .........in which they show an Old Man cribbing " yeh sunte sunte mei budha ho gaya "
This made me confused is this for Congress or anti Congress coz they are ruling country for decades .
Request to Congress Supporters .......convey the message.... change the Advertising agency .
 
These are kind of Populist Measures to gain the Votes. Congress has lately been spending a lot on Populist Schemes. They have almost got the AP Divided...just for Votes. Where would the Present Govt. get the 4-5 Lakh Crores to fund a New Capital? Where would they get the money to provide free housing for the poors in the Urban? "Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime". Rather than focusing on providing good education & thereafter providing employment, Govt. just wants to feed them as & when Elections come near.
