PVN backed the current PrimeMinister Manmohan Singh to the hilt when he was appointed finance minister in 1991.He asked Manmohan to take any decision necessary ,while he would give him political cover.India's economy was on lifesupport then as it had nearly defaulted on it's international debts,now it's growing at 8% yearly. PVN also established fullscale diplomatic ties with Israel,which in under 10years has become India's 2nd largest arms supplier.On the downside,his inaction on the Ayodhya mosque controversy,allegations of blatant corruption & inability to do anything about Paki-sponsored terrorism in Kashmir(which had just started out) will remain a black spot on his legacy.

I find it fascinating that India or an Indian company finds it necessary to hire people to post Indian propoganda on this site. This is not India Free Republic. Start your own site.
