The best performing minister in Modi’s government

The Minister of External Affairs, Sushma Swaraj has time and time again proved that she is the best performing minister in the cabinet of Narendra Modi’s government. Her actions have earned her critical acclaim even though there are other ministers like Finance Minister Arun Jaitley who are much closer to PM.

The latest corroboration to her performance was witnessed on 31 May when she held a freewheeling press conference. In this conference she has disclosed her success mantra which is: keep working but stay away from the media.

In her annual presser, she scored a perfect ten and became a very important part for Narendra Modi as she defended the PM form repeated barbs from journalists regarding the frequent foreign trips he made.

During the introduction, she opened with the achievements of Modi’s government in its first year in office in the field of foreign policy and went elaborately into it. After that, she took question from 45 different journalists and not once was she stumped by any of them.

..

Two days before this, her cabinet colleague Home Minister Rajnath Singh had done a major faux pas at his press conference in New Delhi by stating that India had entered an agreement with France to make nuclear weapons in India under the ‘Make in India’ campaign of PM Modi.

Sushma’s tactic can be compared to that of Hilary Clinton as like her, Sushma won’t be fading away soon.
