Matters of growth
Why does Rahul Bajaj's embrace of Yashwant Sinha feel like a straitjacket? There is no reason why corporate bosses should not enjoy the same rights as ordinary mortals and be free to state their choice for finance minister in the new Union Cabinet.
Against the verdict
The Telugu Desam Party has not strengthened the incoming National Democratic Alliance government by deciding to extend only "issue-based support" to it.
Strike at the root
Parliamentary democracy and the cabinet form of government have worked fairly well in India for over five decades. But gradually, a kind of cynicism is developing amongst the people, particularly the youth.
