Purandareswari must be the CM of Andhra Pradesh
Mood:  chatty

It is very sad that Sri Rajasekhara Reddy passed away in such a tragic accident.  His sudden departure, for sure, has ensued a leadership battle. 

However, it is alarming to notice how quickly the MLAs of AP tried to throne YSR's son Jagan as CM.  Not that there is something wrong with Jagan.  But my question is --- what is the rush?!  There are quite a few reasons why they shouldnt rush in installing Jagan as CM.  Foremost of them is that Jagan is just 100 days old in politics, he never played an active role in politics.  He is the son of YSR is not a good enough reason for him to be throned as CM.  There have to be better reasons than this.  So I think Jagan should continue in the politics for some more time and show his strength and his committment to the nation before he becomes the CM.

The one leader who comes to my mind who fits the position to become CM of Andhara Pradesh is Smt. Purandareswari.  She is one of the finest lady politicians we have in India.  I personally attended her lectures in Birmingham, when she was chief guest at a function, and at Geneva in Switzerland.  Her lectures made me admire her leadership thinking, her statesmanship and her committment to the nation building.  She is more than just a politician. Irrespective of her political affiliation I have nothing but admiration for her, especially her passion for educating India is fascinating!  At any meeting she can stand as a fine example of how a woman with brains can lead India.  Purandareswari can be compared in her caliber to current president of India Mrs. Pratibha Patil and Late Prime minister of India Mrs. Indira Gandhi.

I strongly believe Mrs. Purandareswari, who is Union Minister of State for Human Resources Development must be made Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. I am sure under her able leadership AP will see great growth.
