The Republic is Sixty
THE Sovereign Socialist Democratic Republic of India completes sixty years of its existence tomorrow. Though we claim to be a Republic, we are headed by a Rubber Stamp President and rather all powerful Prime Minister, 10, Janpath willing of course in the present scenario. What would have been the situation if Nehru was the President and Rajendra Prasad the Prime Minister in 1950? Maybe we would have had a Presidential form of Government with the President really wielding power instead of being a rubber stamp.
