Enough time has been wasted due to the hijacking of the issue by the Leftists. The people of India should learn the pitfall of a fractured mandate. They should be more careful in the future while exercising their franchise. They should ensure that the mandate is clear; it can be either to one party or formation or to another but should not consist of three dozen political outfits including one and two member outfits.
India has to move ahead at a great speed to catch up with the rest of the world powers. That requires quick decision, some may be popular some unpopular. The Government to be voted in future should have the necessary majority to carry out the responsibilities of government without any political compulsions and other limitations .In the process; I am not advocating a one party State. There should be an opposition; I would say a responsible opposition who should work as a check on the activities of the Government. This is an essential part of a Democratic setup. However, it should not function as if devoid of any responsibility. This has unfortunately been the case in the last four years.
