Tiny, she is fond of finger wagging. Her party, the Trinamool Congress, has just 19 of the national parliament's 543 elected members. She offers little beyond vague talk of the "common man", and after a year running West Bengal she looks ill-at-ease in office. Yet Mamata Banerjee feels she is now a sledgehammer in national affairs. On September 18th, in a tirade before cameras in Kolkata, she tried to topple the Congress-led government in Delhi, led by Manmohan Singh. Crowing that "the whole country is watching us", she offered Mr Singh a non-choice between risking swift political collapse or what amounts to a slow, humiliating policy defeat. Congress's leaders will probably find another way out. But India's already wobbly economy is likely to suffer. Her fury is over economic policy. She thrives on fights. The past year has seen confrontations over rail fares, petrol prices, a water deal with Bangladesh and foreign supermarkets in India. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
