Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one among those popular and the most powerful persons across the globe. He has been named as winner of 2014 year readers’ poll conducted by the leading English Magazine ‘TIME’. He has secured 16 percent of votes out of the 59 lakhs votes cast to select the ‘Person of the Year.’ Readers from 225 countries across the globe, including 37 percent from US, 17 percent from India and 12 percent from Russia have participated in this online polling conducted by the Time Magazine recently. However, Narendra Modi has to make his way into top 8 persons list in the next round of polling.

Whether or not he is elected as the ‘Person of the Year’ all this development indicates there is large difference between him and his predecessor Dr. Manmohan Singh. If people could recall the same Time Magazine has published a cover page article on Dr. Manmohan Singh stating him ‘under achiever’ one could understand the large difference between them.

In fact, Dr. Manmohan Singh is a great Financial Manager and proved his mettle as Finance Minister during late PV Narasimha rao’s regime. But the same person was rated as under achiever in the later period because the Congress President Sonia Gandhi has remotely controlled him and virtually tied his hands.

But, Narendra Modi spearheading against all odds rose to his present position from a road side tea seller stage. He not only reached the top with his hard efforts but is also trying to put his country on top of the globe with his sincere efforts and clever ideas. So, is he deserved to be elected as the ‘Person of the year.”

Whether or not he is elected, he is desperate to see his country stand among the top ten in the world. If he can ensure it, then one day the whole world will recognize him as the Person of the world not just the year.
