I have great respect for the leadership of both Congress and BJP.Sonia is very well respected and so is Advani ji , though the recent havoc in his party would have hurt him and his authority as a leader has weakened. He and Atal ji must be credited to give India the most credible and mighty opposition against the almost imperialistic Congress. The politics of India has improved at the central level at-least.
But what is the matter of great concern is that both the major party in India now has fallen to a house which has uncontested control over the party. There is no doubt that both Atal Ji and now Manmohan Singh Ji happen to be the best person to lead this contry. Fortunately both of them managed to make seemingly independent decision, without worrying about their equations with the power centres in their party. But what assures this country for the future? Rest aside that, will a non Gandhi-non RSS supported person will ever be able to lead this country. The recent trouble within BJP and the role of RSS in controlling the affairs of the party is not at all a healthy sign. The parties must realize that in this country they have been chosen by the people through a democratic process, not because they belong to RSS or Gandhi family. Then why should these two houses control these parties. Its demeaning, disgusting, disrespectful to the core constitutional thought; Of the people, By the people, For the people. The leaders of this country should be able to understand they carry with them the hope and pride of their people.They must be answerable to people who they represent, not the people who try to control them. Each and every Indian should be able to aspire for the top most post of this country irrespective of their connection to Gandhi-RSS family.

Can there be a second Gandhi
Desperate times need desperate efforts. I wonder where this world is moving. Global warming, drought, epidemic, ethnic divide, terrorism, poverty, crime, intolerance..the list is endless. Can there be a single solution to all these problem. Can there be harmony in this world. Can we overpower our motivation to achieve everything for ourselves and nothing for others. Can there be a measure of success on the basis of what others have gained form you and not what you have achieved for yourself. Can there be an end to the cycle of favor and obligation. Can we think beyond ourselves!!
I think the world needs to answer these questions...no sooner than later. In a fast moving world with such an acquisitive mindset, we all are set to be doomed. We need to think beyond our lives. Was there an obligation on our predecessors to leave this world as it is today. Are they answerable to us to the extent to which they have attenuated this world. Sadly we can't find these answers from them. They have done there bit and gone.
But we may not get the time to save our face. This world has deteriorated to such an extent that we need to seek these answers now...save this world for our immediate generation. And we need a second Gandhi who could lead us...I would like to end by quoting Gandhi..
