<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->PM is Indian Politician of the Year
New Delhi: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is the winner of CNN-IBN's Indian of the Year award in the field of Politics.
Singh won hands down for finally stepping out of Sonia Gandhi's shadow and making the nuclear deal possible.
The speech - âI know there are risks involved but I'm ready to take those risks for Indiaâ - transformed the unassuming Economist Prime Minister into Brand Manmohan speaking out brave and strong.
He single-handedly led the diplomatic offensive for the Indo-US nuclear deal and changed the dynamics of the Indo-US relationship forever.
That is the story of Singhâs life as the Prime Minister and though you don't see him around too often, you can be sure that heâs somewhere in the background - quietly working on convincing the Left to agree to more FDI or ensuring that the Right To Information Act has more teeth.
And so, for this man, whose life began beyond the Pakistan border in Jhelum, 2004 was the beginning of a new chapter in his life, 2005 was when he mastered the art and science of Politics and 2006 the year when he really came into his own and delivered.
Under his leadership, the economy is booming, and the development index has skyrocketed.
Any doubts on whether he's politically savvy enough were laid to rest in 2006. He has held the coalition together, walked the tightrope despite difficult partners and has achieved a remarkable working relationship with Sonia Gandhi.
Singh is the most educated Prime Minister of independent India, yet he's the least pompous.
Oxbridge-educated yet the Punjabi accent remains. His apparent weakness is his strength and he may never have won a popular election but has won the respect of his countrymen.
For that and much more, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is CNN-IBN'S Indian Politician of the Year.

I suspected that they were scamming as soon as they turned off the % display, Modi at that time had 65% and MMS a pathetic 10% and voila MMS suddenly races ahead of Modi using his superpowers and emerges as the winner!!
Can anyone post the scanned image of % from here:

I don't know how to post images but it might come in handy later to expose cnn-ibn's duplicity.
