This is a good move by Modi. By not keeping a Gujarati as his top advisor he is demonstrating that he is not a practitioner of regional chauvinism.

>>>Ex-IMF guy-- seems like a good choice and Jaitley for Finance. So far, it seems positive.

Chidambaram is also a lawyer.

Hmm....
Looks like Modi is saying that UP bhaiyyas prosper by working for Gujaratis. Last time when Modi said that, you criticized him.

>>>Jaitley has represented multinationals and is pro reformist. While he has been critical of rajan's holding the line on the interest rates, he has not called for throwing him out. Looks like he has walked a fine line on that.

Rash,
As a follow up to past FM's qualifications, only krishnamachari and mms are real economists since in 1960s. Subramaniam and VP singh are successfull as they used the budgets to meet other policy efforts.

Hmm.. Congress like strategy is alright when our party follows it?! This Jaitely guy if he can't win now probably can not win ever. How fair is it for all the other candidates that won? I don't think these elite foreign educated guys are any better than ordinary folk. Idiots like Jairam Ramesh, Tahroor, Swamy and Chidambaram, they all have proved that time and again.Kris wrote:>>>Jaitley has represented multinationals and is pro reformist.

CD
Now you are posting like the CD of the past.
Jaitley while he cannot win elections, he is politically more advanced than "deer in the lights" jai Ramesh and "I know all the answers" chidambaram.
The financial policy is probably set by Modi with inputs from people like Prof. bhagat and arun shourie etc. FM is only translating that into a budget. I think jaitley can handle that.
Then there is the issue of financial and investment related structural reforms. Progress on that front will attract new investments. $60 billion is the number thrown around in papers.

i thought modi had a much better choice in jayant sinha, and i thought he may have had the courage to recruit a junior and relatively unknown person to the post of FM solely based on his experience and accomplishments. in the end he disappointingly went for paying some political dues.

Yes...remember Swamy comment about interest rates and Swift rebuttal from Rajan in Switzerland?
Swamy is from Harvard, which thinks MIT as a polytechnic and inferior. Swamy an economist from Harvard has every reason to hate Rajan - a FINANCE PhD from MIT (a not considered a harcore true economist by puritans. Rajan will never get a Nobel - no matter what).
My question why would anyone consider Swamy to be a finance minister at his age of 74?

of course it isn't, and the same applies to every portfoilo. We need people who are not out of touch with Indian realities + have won Indian public's confidence to lead the country not some loser.Kris wrote:>>>>Winning elections is not the same as running the finance ministry.

>>CD,
The FM is going to be tasked with certain specific things presumably. This is neither a 'rewards' program, nor a popularity contest. There may be other positions within the cabinet that require the people (meaning constituents) touch, but what this is going to require is the ability to work with technocrats internally and project the idea of 'we are open for business and we can offer a stable environment to the investment community.

Heck every minister is tasked with certain specific things. Secretary of the treasury, however great he may be will be useless for India as he has zero expertise on India and its needs. He needs to have an understanding of country's culture to prepare fiscal budget and what not, a person who is out of touch with it is ill suited for that job.Kris wrote:

I think we are going round and round with this. Jaitley's portfolio is not Cultural Affairs. In the context of his job, the needs now are that not difficult to ascertain: business- friendly infrastructure & governance and stability. These are the items that engender confidence in investors.

Will Jaitley be also going over class 12 books to learn how to tackle the problems facing the Indian economy?

If jaitley would be as successful as VP singh in collecting taxes and catching hidden assets, I would mandate he read the same books as vp singh (even if they are children's cartoons).

>>TBT,
If it was meant for me (CD asked me a question or alluded to this anyway in the same vein), I was referring to Jaitley not having to win an election to be FM. I was responding to CD's assertion that he may be out of touch with the common man. My point was that his role is going to entail working with technocrats internally and be able to transmit the message to the investment community that the country is pro-business and will have a stable investment climate. I am not sure why he would be especially out of touch with the citizens, but that is only peripherally relevant to my point anyway. CD's follow up question was would I prefer the country run by unelected technocrats? I am not sure how this is axiomatic in the context of what I said. The country just went through a massive election process and voted a party into power and we are talking about the PM forming his cabinet. As far as I can see, it would be a strange proposition to require that anyone he appoints also be elected.

This is a good move by Modi. By not keeping a Gujarati as his top advisor he is demonstrating that he is not a practitioner of regional chauvinism.
Last I checked, Amit Shah was still a Gujarati. And not to worry, he's still gonna be the second most powerful man regardless of whether Rashmoron knows about it or not!

I read the question and it is obvious that you misunderstood the discussion most likely due to the fact that you did not go through the entire discussion that took place between me & Kris. Poor Kris tried to explain yet you're adamant that you've asked me the right question. *sigh*.truthbetold wrote:Cd

All along I was suggesting that only elected candidates (not contested but lost) should be offered portfolio. Technically savvy with no political background folks are just technocrats, they are better suited for advisory, secretary roles. More often than not they are ill suited for a ministerial role as they do connect with ordinary folks like a career politician does thus cannot make a right decision (keep in mind that a technically correct decision is not necessarily the right decision when dealing with a country full of poor).

Why do the noble people like you have tribal loyalty, Rashmun ? Was your support to dynasty is also based on tribal loyalty to the Allahabad family ?

I would have felt the same if Modi would have appointed a bihari, a Bengali, a Telugu or a tamil as his top advisor.

In that case , your headline would've said non-Gujarati. It wouldn't have celebrated the rise of a UPwallah.

This is a good move by Modi. By not keeping a Gujarati as his top advisor he is demonstrating that he is not a practitioner of regional chauvinism.
Why do the noble people like you have tribal loyalty, Rashmun ? Was your support to dynasty is also based on tribal loyalty to the Allahabad family ?
I would have felt the same if Modi would have appointed a bihari, a Bengali, a Telugu or a tamil as his top advisor.
In that case , your headline would've said non-Gujarati. It wouldn't have celebrated the rise of a UPwallah.
Wrong. If it would have been a Telugu the title of this thread would have said Telugu.

I will let "the loser" have his momentary "high" feeling when he reads this post.
