(Dr) Manmohan Singh was not blocked by India’s Constitution; he could have sought a third term (in office). He was (instead) stymied by the jump-start ambitions of Rahul Gandhi, the HEIR WHO is SOMETIMES HERE, SOMETIMES THERE, and OFTEN NOWHERE. Dr Singh was, in essence, given the responsibility of CREATING the CONDITIONS that would ELECT RAHUL GANDHI as the NEXT PRIME MINISTER. HE DID HIS BEST. But a mentor cannot help a protégé beyond a very limited point. If you want the medal, you have to do the heavy lifting yourself. -- M.J. Akbar, Obama and Manmohan: A tale of two second terms
