16th March 2012
Today was budget day . The finance minister Mr. Pranab Mukherjee read the budget. As is the usual practice, all media channels vied with each other after the budget speech to get leaders from different sections of the society to comment/ discuss the budget.
Jyotir Scindia a young congress politician defended the govt. budget. I was simply amazed at his expertise on the budget ( it was just released an hour ago) , his highly articulate versatile English. I looked up info about him.

Following info is collected from web

He did his schooling from the prestigious Doon School in India and then went off to do his graduation in United States in Harvard University and MBA from the Stanford University.

He is also the Maharaja of the princely state of Gwalior and a scion of the Scindia royal family.
After doing graduation, he interned with the UN Economic Development Cell and in fact had the distinction of being the only under-graduate intern there. After getting an MBA, he went on to work as an investment bankerwith Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley. He also did a course in car racing from the U.S. He is known to be one of the most focused and hard-working students at college and also one of the most dedicated workers at his workplace.After his father, Madhavrao Scindia, died an untimely death in an unfortunate air crash, the seat in his political constituency fell vacant. Jyotir Aditya Scindia was the natural choice as he knew his constituency well He had campaigned for his father at a mere age of 13! In February 2002, he was elected to the Lok Sabha from his constituency Guna. He won with a margin of 450,000 votes! He was re-elected to the 14th Lok Sabha when he won the elections in May 2004. In the by-elections of 2007, he successfully defeated the incumbent in Shivpuri-Guna province.
He is married to Priyadarshini Raje Gaekwad Scindia of Baroda and has two children, Yuvraj Mahanaryaman Scindia (born in 1995) and Ananya Raje Scindia (born in 2002). He is known to be a sportsman-politician and is known to have encouraged Indian sports and get them international recognition. Since he has worked in a multi-national environment, he cannot see people sit idle and not work hard enough to get things done. Jyotiraditya Scindia is an avid sportsman himself and is often spotted at polo matches. He is the face of the future of India and with his efforts, the Indian politics will definitely touch new heights.

My son Hari always says if you want to change the system, get involved, go into politics and bring the change you want. Young politicians like Jyotir Scindia, Akilesh ( Youngest New Chief Minister of UP at 38 who is also an Engineer ) infuse a lot of hope for my country . I hope and pray they do not become corrupt and end up like so many others. Hope they have the vision to take India forward to become a developed nation.
