Few days ago, I was reading news paper and find a cartoon there, that was the time when Academy Awards were announced and in that cartoon it was mentioned that our three big politician were floating in the air (representing the success of the Oscar wining movie "gravity) and one person on the ground showing similarity with our PM was appearing very happy with a trophy in his hand and it was mentioned 10 years a slave (representing the 10 years tenure of Dr. Singh as PM in NDA1 and NDA2).

Value-for-money

Insight of a p.m who spoke very less about him and his work. Who believed in saying let his work speak for him.Will change the perception about Man Mohan Singh. Not a must read. But should be read.

Great book to read

It's a great book to read if one is truly interested in finding out how Sonia Gandhi remote controlled UPA 1 and UPA 2.I would like to thank Sanjaya Baru sir for having the courage to write such a book which will be read by the coming generations and they will know how a PM was made helpless by Gandhi's.This book reveals that Manmohan Singh was an under-rated politician.He knew how to survive.

Great Effort Mr. Baru

Well, you would be, both, surprised and, not-surprised, after you read this. One side you will find a person who has risen from ashes, and achieved something unique and exceptional while striving as a nobody. You will applaud the compassion Mr. Singh has shown till 1991 and the kind of respect he gathered from his peers as associates. This book, very neatly, describes how a person with so high, an integrity and learning, succumbs to an authority, who intellectually, is nothing but miniscule w...

Insightful and Sad

Sanjaya Baru was Prime Minster Manmohan Singh's media advisor during UPA's 1st term. This is his account of PM and people in his vicinity. It is perhaps an important service rendered to a man who would not or could not speak for himself. You learn something about the man himself, his awareness and acceptance of his situation in his party. You learn how his greatest achievements came about, how he could put his foot down when he wanted.

Baru was loyal to his PM but not blind to his failings. ...

Worth the Price and Time

The book is really informative and sheds a lot of light on the Prime Minister ship of Dr. Manmohan Singh.
The writer has written the book very superbly and amazingly. He has also shed light on his role and experience. The reader gets a lot of information about all that went into the Making and Unmaking of Dr. MANMOHAN SINGH - a renowned Economist, diligent RBI governor, pragmatic former Finance minster, and Prime Minister from a very trusted and loyal friend and admirer of Mr. Singh hims...

Lucid and readable like fiction.

The book has been written in very interesting manner. The book is very engaging, well written and you will feel that you are reading a fiction.the book has an excellent narrative and a lot to learn. Its very ironical and tragic to know that the power switch of the government was not in the hand of an efficient and learned person Dr. Manmohan Singh but in the hand of other person. This book, very neatly, describes how a person with high integrity and learning, succumbs to an intellectually ...

if any want to understand how PMO ofc work, then this book give all that. This book does not favour any one but simply tell the truth and give clear picture how this congress party using Mr Manmohan sign and his name in there favour. Every good work done by Mr Manmohan singh, and congress party gives all credit to one of his useless man.
