Who is at the helm?

The next Finance Minister holds a very responsible position to take up the economy of India and the financial crisis to a safe level. Who is the best man for this job? Well many suggestions are available but here are the main contenders:

• Palaniappan Chidambaram
• Montek Singh Ahluwalia Check profile here

Both have excellent record behind them in shaping the robust business and economic models and have held various places. Dr. Manmohan Singh wants to send a strong signal by appointing one of them as the next Finance Minister. Congress, with its victory, needs to take strong steps and send confident signals in its decisions, actions and policies. If the rumors are right P. Chidambaram is being made Home Minister. With the top three,including Dr. Singh, at the helm it is going to be a safe ride ahead. I am still watching Rahul.
