- President of India is a "dodo"...has no powers, makes no
- decisions. He cann't order the army to do anything.
- Its a pretty stupid setup if you ask me. President of
- India lives in a Palace built for a King ("Vice-Regal")
- Should he be living more modestly considering the grinding
- poverty all around him. MK Gandhi wanted the Presidential
- Palace turned into a childerns development centre/hospital.
- He also suggested to Nehru/Patel to get off their high-horse
- and disband Congress party before the 1st election since
- Congress would have the unfair advantage over "startup"
- political parties.
