Manmohan Singh govt was better! True or False?

Precisely, its been 10 months since the new Govt came to power with resounding mandate from the people of India. What did the new govt achieve in these 10 months, is definitely a intriguing question that lingers in the minds of many educated youth, patriotic journalists and scholars. 

Mr. Modi evolved a new line of communication to the people India, selecting Twitter, Facebook and Digital Media. What lapsed in this mode of communication to the people of India, is a personal touch to a majority of Indians. These people earlier thought that a 'Chai-Wala' would make the govt come to close with them, who lacked resources to lead a dignified life. And they are 600 million of them. They are feeling that Mr. Modiji is going far and far away and out of touch with People of India. 

Mr. Obama's visit played a spotlight achievement only to people who had TVs, Laptops, Smartphones and time. For 600 million of Indians, it no longer matters who visits New Delhi and what they eat!. They realize that they have been fooled around yet again, although intelligently this time. Now, they are looking for the next election time in the cycle of Democracy's enfranchisement, obviously to punish the ones who mislead them. They are even learning, the election is nothing but repeat of Promise made and Punishment for foul promise. They come to realize nothing changes on the ground reality of their life.  Youth is feeling the pain of not finding a right job, poor are feeling the pinch of Inflation. The list is endless.

If we look at Macro economy to see the developments, nothing has been substantial improvement. GDP numbers have been skewed to make it appear better now!. Inflation continues to be a worrying factor for RBI. The lending rates did not decrease even after RBI's rate cut. New petrol and diesel excise duties have been imposed and now 50% of the petrol price is Tax to government.! Don't the Modi govt not aware that even Dalits do own two wheeler bikes and mopeds. How could any Govt impose 50% tax on petrol for Dalits,  and still claims that the Govt is poor-friendly!. 

Ten months into Govt, the Modi govt has not given any road map to improving the Tax Compliance rate, which stands at 5%. a minuscule percent, when compared to 95% tax compliance rate with other Developed countries. 

If you subtract the scams such as 2G, Coal etc., what difference did the new govt make to the people of India. It seems why Mr. Manmohan Singh said that the History will write what good his govt did!. Yes, exactly.  Only history can judge performances of Govts. Not the Twitter tweets, not Facebook updates, not late night Media frenzy to get ratings.
