100 days agenda by PM & PM in Waiting

The PM and the PM in waiting are now competing on who, if given a chance to lead this nation, can perform better and get results within  100 days of office on the following:
1) Turn the economy around with a 100-day action plan to revive the economy by adding greater vigor to the stimulus packages and tackling job losses.
2) Revive the confidence in the economy and take it to the stage where 9% to 10% growth is possible.
3) Bring back black money stashed away in tax havens abroad.
4) Job Losses in the economy will be dealt with by an integrated action plan.
 
But , it is increasing getting clearer by the day, that both indulge in spiking and  leaving punches on one another as though they are in the RING and the poor REFEREE, the electorate is helplessly watching the ethics and rules of the game being thrown to winds.

Though both of them  talk ill of each other at the slightest provocation, still they are shying away from direct debate on the issues that concern this nation.

The PM has conceeded that there is a linkage between terrorists outside and within the country and this needs to be tackled urgently by modernising the security and intelligence mechanism if voted back to power.But PM in waiting wants tougher laws to handle terrorism and internal security threats and blames the PM for lack of political will and toughness.

The PM in waiting is harping on the PM not doing enough @ G-20 meet to take a forceful stand on bringing back unaccounted money into India when major countries like US,UK,France and Germany wanted to put pressure on UBS swiss bank to pass on the data base of account holders who are holding secret accounts with them. However, the PM has to do lot of explaining to the nation why it didnot persue the matter when Germany was willing to part with the names of Indians which came into their hands when they sought information from Swiss Bank.

The breifings and press confrences were conducted by both the contenders for leading the nation seperately in the TV and we the electrate feel that they could have had TV DEBATE on one on one  basis and conducted themselves decent and   helped India becoming a MATURE and ROBURST democracy in the eyes of the whole world at a time  when there are  disturbing trends obtaining in our neighbourhood.
