Commerce ministry in wrong hands

Welcome back!

Apart from the Lallofication of Indian railways, there is another ministry that went to wrong hands.

Kamal Nath has been given the priced Commerce portfolio. It should have gone to good negotiaters like Chidambaram or Kapil Sibal(he is one of India’s highly paid advocates, Bofors Case, TenSports V/s DD case to name a few of his cases)

Who will do the Jaitley in the next Cancun(WTO-Ministerial Conferenec wherever it be!!!). It was the J-factor that united the group of nations including India, S Africa, Brazil etc. against the western agricultural subsidies. Cancun was not a failure as Jailtey said, it was a beginning.

Kamal Nath after assuming office has come out with the hackneyed promises like increasing our exports and help it grow better to reach the 1% share of the world exports.

And we can expect a revision of certains parts of the 2002-07 EXIM Policy. Kamal Nath is the same old Min for Environment who represnted India at the RIO Earth Summit. He is not a dynamic leader but just a General Secy of the Congress in deep slumber.(both the party and him)

Dr.Singh is impressive in all respects but not in key portfolio allocation. Wake up Dr.PM.
