15 questions.
11th 'question' is only a comment.

nitpicking aside, i was thinking the whole time, these questions look tough because i don't know the answers to them. i was sure narendra modi must have kick ass answers/explanations and 160 good things/progress they made to report in response to AK's questions.
but nitin patel's answer was lame and i am disappointed.

The bigger question ... does Modi owe any answer or explanation to every Tom, Dick and Harry in the street walking with a list of questions? The answer obviously is 'no'.

Kejriwal out of the blue heading to Modi's house with a list of questions for Modi before the parliamentary elections just proves that Kejriwal, even though leading his party in the Lok Sabha elections and hoping to become India's P.M., has neither the good political sense nor the political agenda for his own party.

KGP Kejriwal is correct on most accounts. This guy has the intelligence and smartness to identify and ask specific questions - what the common people are afraid to ask the politicians.

But, the guy is not a capable administrator and cannot be. His ideas will work only in Russia where Kejriwal can "dictate" and impose his solutions.

Kejriwal will be an excellent Lok Ayukta, Chief Justice, or as permanent opposition leader in Lok Sabha keeping any govt on its toes.

Gujarat's procurement rate for solar power is higher than most other states - Rs 12.5 vs Rs 8.5 or so. But then, Gujarat was a pioneer in this and there were no benchmarks at that time. The Govt had to define a policy in vacuum, which would incentivize entrepreneurs to set up large solar farms. And it succeeded. Gujarat attracted a phenomenal amount of investments, accounting for 70% of all solar power in India. Even today, Gujarat is #1 in this space.

Kejri and his merry band of self-righteous finger-pointers have zero knowledge of policy formulation. They thrive in insinuating wrongdoing every time the state pays more (or receives less) before full price discovery takes place. Left to them, they will stick to "safe" policymaking (assuming they do get around to framing policies ever) which will kill all new investments. Buffoons!

This is Kejriwal's second question to Narendra Modi:

2. Why does your government buy solar power at Rs 13 per unit? Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka are buying it at Rs 7.50 and Rs 5 per unit, respectively.

solar power generation is a highly technological driven sector, and Gujarat is a leader in generating solar power. While rapid advances may have reduced the price of solar power generation, Gujarat- a pioneer in this field started quite early in generating solar power when such new technologies were not in the market. These agreements may have been made with solar power generation companies before the advent of cost reducing technologies. Prices will naturally reduce when the supply outpaces demand. Hence, as more capacity keeps getting added, the price of solar power will reduce as per the same logic.
