Some guy on Blogger News Network called Yossarin has mentioned that it took me 16 years to change from a reluctant politician to a Communal Socialist.
Historically, I was circumstantially compelled to liberalize in 1993. The country was broke. IMF was our Finance Minister and I was their coolie. But in the end who cares if it went well and I got all the credit. Then BJP did the dirty work of tough liberalization by having a disinvestment ministry. I loved Arun in Action. After they tested the atomic bomb, sold off non performing PSUs, put the telecoms industry on the growth path and let the media flourish, I came in! I got busy with my reservation policy, anti-privatization and minority appeasement. I use CPI (M) as my excuse for all policies which stem out of me being a Communal Socialist at heart.
This is what BJP wants me to confess...are they crazy?
