Time has called our prime minister an underachiever. No report can be more false than this. Manmohan Singh is a non-achiever.
Sumantra Ghosal used to refer to "satisfactory underperformance". Had he witnessed Singh's style, Ghosal would have called it "satisfactory non-performance". If a nation's leader lets the corrupt thrive and refuses to open his mouth except at the dentist's, would you smugly call him an underachiever? I would call him a destroyer of the nation.
