I know very well that to become the Prime Minister of India is not that easy. Since I have never taken any part in politics, nor I have any affiliations with any political party, it is almost impossible for me to become the Prime Minister of India.

Still, I think there is no harm in imaging myself to be the Prime Minister of India. If I were the Prime Minister of India, I'd do a lot of good work for the people.

I do not mean to say that others who have been the Prime Ministers of India, haven't done anything in this connection. But, I think, there is no end to doing good as doing good like everything good and truthful, is infinite.

First of all, I'd give attention to India's defense, as without being a strong country India cannot make much progress and hold her head high in the comity of nations.

Defence preparedness needs a lot of money and other resources. Unless there is a strong industrial base in a country, it cannot dream to be a powerful- nation even in the matter of defence. So, I'd try to set up a base for heavy

and important industry in the country. Industrialization on a large-scale will also boost up exports and the country will become rich.

India is predominantly an agricultural country. Much of its industry depends on agriculture. It is, therefore, of paramount importance to give impetus to agriculture.

Both agricultural and industrial growth will also provide inumerable jobs and thus the problem of unemployment will be solved to a great extent.

The most baffling problems of India are the population ex-plosion, poverty, illiteracy, poor medical facilities, etc. I'll pay full attention to all these problems and bring as many reforms as possible to get rid to these problems.

I'll streamline and overhaul certain crucial systems such as taxation system, banking system, education system, childcare, etc.

Much more can be said and done in the context of the topic, but let's hope for the best as one drop of practical work is better than oceans of theoretical work. Instead of making false and rosy promises, I'll focus more on real and practical work.
