India needs Rahul, not Modi as PM

India needs a young PM whose actions are indicative of his anti-corruption stance. We need someone who just doesn't give hollow speeches but someone who has actually taken a stand against corruption.

Editor's note: This is a reader comment we received on the article Congress is better off not naming Rahul PM nominee.  As is Firstpost policy, we have lightly edited for grammar and spelling, but the comment has been left as is.by Rahul CIndia needs a young PM whose actions are indicative of his anti-corruption stance. We need someone who just doesn't give hollow speeches but someone who has actually taken a stand against corruption.[caption id="attachment_1340947" align="alignleft" width="380"]Rahul Gandhi. AFP. Rahul Gandhi. AFP.[/caption]Rahul  Gandhi has done that against his own government. Unlike Modi who still  has Babulal Bokaria as a minster in his Gujarat Government and who  deliberately frustrated the appointment of a lok ayukta in Gujarat for  more than 10 years. And finally amended the State Lok Ayukta act to suit his needs and made the new lok ayukta has one more pet of his.On the  contrary Rahul has insured that the country gets a Lok Pal with teeth  and opposed the ordinance which was not in the interest of the nation. Mr. Modi its high time you walked the talk.The question is do we need a institution builder or we need the supreme executive? But remember absolute power corrupts absolutely. Gujarat is the classical example. Things move in Gujarat cause everyone is willing to give and take bribe, donation, chanda etc.
