may be yes.his decisions are mostly influenced by sonia gandhi's words and actions. but he is a very knowledegable man and will always think about the welfare of his country. i think if he has to go in any case against sonia and with his country,he will definetely be on his country;s side.

He may want to. But I am sure he can never go against Sonia. He has no mass following in this country. He has not been able to win a lok sabha election. These are vital factors.

He is made dumb and deaf so eventually a handicappe personality to say in a word a financial wizard in a wrong option/vocation.

I agree with you. He is not suitable in politics and also he is a academician and not a strong personality who can thwart interfarences from Sonia.

I am not sure if that is always the case. Yes there is some dependency on america but Manmohan is also a puppet of Sonia Thats most irritating.

That is true that Sonia is having mroe powers. This is not a healthy scenario. Having power without responsibility is a very dangerous situation.

Nope,he is not.What is visible to us is not the real trait of manmohan singh.It should be remembered that,he never chased the PM's post.It has simply fallen in his lap.Such individuals wait for an opportune time to make a vigorous turn around.For an on looker he appears to be a stooge but wait and see for this volcano to erupt.

I do not doubt that he is not power hungry. He is also very educated. But from all evidences it does seem that he is simply a puppet. So, when will volcano erupt? Why we have a wait? An able prime minister should not need toi wait to exercize his right steps.

It doesn't matter the prime minister is manmohan singh or anyone else. The condition of this country will remain the same. Manmohan singh is very qualified person and in my opinion he is a puppet of sonia.....ofcourse GANDHI.

Well this is a very good topic that you have raised and i agree with the fact that manmohan singh is a puppet prime minister.It is Sonia Gandhi who is taking all the decisions and influencing the power,I have no doubt that manmohan singh has got lot's of capabilities to be a good leader but presently he is playing all the cards that have been given to him by Sonia Gandhi
