Modi is not the only Indian leader who realised the requirements of India''s future. Though Nehru has done more harm to India than good,one of the best things he did was in the field of technical and professional education where he allowed only professionals, industrialists, scientists and academicians to set up the syllabus and run it professionally. He never allowed politicians and bureaucracy to interfere.That''s why we have institutions like IIT,IISc and IIM today. The standard of these institutions started decreasing from the 80''s when Rajiv Gandhi allowed politicians and bureaucrats to interfere and it reached the bottom when Manmohan Singh brought reservation in these institutions. Shastri realised the future needs of India and started the green and white revolution for food security and modernization of the military for future security of the country. Rao realized the future economic requirements of the country and brought liberalization. Rao also changed the foreign,industrial and military policy according to future requirements. Gowda realized the requirements of less tax in the future and changed the structure,that''s why today we pay very less tax than before when it was more than 50%. Vajpayee realized the future infrastructure and communication requirements of the country and brought the world class golden quadrilateral highway projects,world class airports and sea ports and mobile revolution.So it is not good to credit only Modi for looking into the future.
