T
he mood of the nation is sombre. And that isn’t simply because the in-
cumbent
UPA
’
s
credibility is in tatters. The fact is that the Indian voter is
not enthused by any of the political alternatives on offer. Quite clearly,
the country is suffering from an acute crisis of uninspiring leadership. In most
democracies, serious anger with the ruling dispensation should overwhelm-
ingly benefit the main Opposition party or alliance. Incredibly, according to our
latest
INDIA TODAY
-Nielsen Mood of the Nation Poll, the
BJP
-led
NDA
has failed to
firmly capitalise on the space vacated by Congress. If an election were to be
held this month, the
NDA
would be well short of a majority, hovering around the
200-mark. In terms of vote share,
NDA
picks up only 1.6 per cent of the 7.7 per
cent that Congress is losing from its actual vote share in 2009. The other parties
are the big gainers from Congress decline, but they lack even a semblance of
coherence to be a real alternative “Third Force”. The Indian voter is apathetic
even to non-mainstream political alternatives. The anti-establishment Arvind
Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party has also failed to register much enthusiasm.
This is the perfect time to examine what precisely are the reasons behind
the underwhelming leadership of our major political parties, particularly the
Congress and
BJP
. Our cover story package, in addition to the results of the
Mood of the Nation Poll, contains an indepth analysis of what makes a good
political leader. We have drawn on the analytical framework of the finest
global minds in the field of leadership and management, including manage-
ment guru Jim Collins to draw our own conclusions about
India’s top leaders. The package analyses the leadership
potential of five of the most prominent leaders of India’s two
national parties—Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Rahul
Gandhi, Narendra Modi and L.K. Advani—and assesses their
capability on several criteria like clarity, courage, humility,
civility and the ability to wield power creatively.
Predictably, nobody scores top marks across categories,
exposing the crisis of India’s leadership. According to the
Mood of the Nation Poll, India’s preferred choice of leaders for
a face off in the General Elections of 2014 is Narendra Modi and Rahul
Gandhi. Undeniably, both have a pan-Indian footprint. However, both have se-
rious question marks on their track record. Modi has shown impressive abili-
ties while governing Gujarat and while on the campaign trail. Unfortunately,
he has failed to get rid of his divisive image, a legacy of the 2002 Gujarat riots.
So far, he has shown little inclination to reinvent himself for a national leader-
ship role which requires him to be more inclusive in his politics. Rahul Gandhi
has an even worse track record. He has had a long nine-year apprenticeship in
politics but has failed to emerge as a leader of substance despite (or perhaps
because of) the unabashed sycophancy of his fellow party members towards
him. In the few election battles he has led, in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar in partic-
ular, the Congress has registered disastrous performances. Rahul was elevated
to Congress vice-president with much fanfare last week, but he needs to pres-
ent a clear vision of the country’s future if he expects India to back him.
The next 16 months in the run-up to General Elections are crucial for all po-
litical parties. The Congress and
BJP
will be playing for the highest stakes. If they
are unable to sort out their leadership problems, expect them to fare poorly at
the hustings and become more dependent on opportunist smaller parties to
form the next government. A government susceptible to blackmail would be
disastrous for a country already reeling from years of non-performance of
UPA
.
There is a leadership vacuum in the country when it is needed the most.
India is unled. Pity.
