Spot on prediction

On May 31, 2009, TSI carried an in-depth cover story on how dynastic politics would hold no more water in India and that it cannot be associated only with the Congress party and that there are numerous political families in India from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. The story dug deep into India’s history and how Indira Gandhi donned the role of the Prime Minister following the death of Lal Bahadur Shastri, which happened to be the starting point of the dynasty debate. However, this phenomenon is not restricted within the Indian boundaries with the Bush and Kennedy families having already made a similar mark in America. The trend has surpassed the political field and has spread its wings in business, films and cricketing world as well. The magazine compiled and revealed a list of over 150 Lok Sabha members who belonged to some dynasty – big or small. Even as TSI did this story, the charisma of the crown prince Rahul Gandhi was diminishing. Given the lack of influence Rahul Gandhi has had on the voters, TSI was spot on in its prediction.
