New Delhi, Jul 8: American newsmagazine Time has described Prime
Minister Dr Manmohan Singh as an 'underachiever', three years after
describing him as the man who changed millions of lives for the
better.
Dr Manmohan Singh appears on the cover of this
week's issue of Time, and in the accompanying article, the magazine
has raised questions about his ability to act in the face of
slowing growth, policy inaction and unpopularity of economic
reforms.
"India needs a reboot. Is Prime Minister Manmohan Singh up to the
job?," asked Time.
The magazine flays Dr Singh for having "squandered" the last three
years, his lack of confidence, inability to rein in his ministers
and "unwilling" to carry out reforms that would continue the
process of liberalisation he helped start in 1991.
Criticising the UPA the article says, "The laws that could help
create growth and jobs are stuck in parliament, sparking concerns
that politicians have lost the plot in their focus on short-term
populist measures that will win votes."
"India is stalling. To turn it around, Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh must emerge from his private and political
gloom,” elaborates the write-up, calling the Prime Minister "a man
in shadow".
The magazine says retaining the finance portfolio following the
exit of Pranab Mukherjee gives an opportunity for Dr Singh to turn
the economy around, though it is not sure if he could manage
that.
