Shashi Tharoor had his image sullied by the IPL scandal. In India, it's ok to be accused of any crime AFTER one occupies a Chief/Prime Ministerial post, not before! He's out!
Come to think of it, DeveGowda wasn't too bad either, right?
The fact that we talk of Devegowda as not that bad reveals a dearth in leadership.
populism tends to rule the roost. Imagine a politician for example saying that they want to legalize gay sex
or decriminalize Marijuana. Or decriminalise prostitution and instead fine the people that uses it.
That would require holding a mirror to Indian hypocritical morality.
