इतिहास में
वी.पी. सिंह
1931–2008
ग्यारह महीनों के प्रधानमंत्री, दिसंबर 1989 से नवंबर 1990। राजीव गांधी के वित्त मंत्री से बोफ़ोर्स पर उनके सबसे बड़े अभियोक्ता बने, फिर अगस्त 1990 में मंडल आयोग का 27% आरक्षण लागू किया और अक्टूबर में राम रथ यात्रा को रास्ता देने के बजाय लालकृष्ण आडवाणी की गिरफ़्तारी के पीछे खड़े रहे — और हफ़्तों के भीतर सरकार गँवाई।
बीच से सबसे दूर मान्यता पर — समूह-आधारित उपाय की तरफ़।
ये कहाँ खड़े हैं
वी.पी. सिंह सातों पैमानों पर, एक छोर से दूसरे छोर तक।
रिकॉर्ड, पैमाने दर पैमाने
हर जगह इस आधार पर तय हुई है कि क्या कहा और क्या किया गया — घोषणापत्र, क़ानून, सरकार चलाने का रिकॉर्ड — और उन्हीं सवालों पर परखी गई है जो यह क्विज़ पूछता है।
सबूत का हवाला अंग्रेज़ी में
The 1990 rural debt relief scheme wrote off farm and rural loans up to ₹10,000 at a cost near ₹10,000 crore, on a National Front programme that put the village ahead of the fisc
As Finance Minister 1984-87 he ran the raids on business that earned the period its name, and two decades later was arrested in Ghaziabad protesting the Dadri land acquisition for a Reliance power project — against the import-licensing cuts and MODVAT of the same finance ministry
Announced Mandal implementation on 7 August 1990 and issued the Office Memorandum on 13 August — 27% for OBCs in central jobs and public undertakings, taking total reservation to 49.5% after Indira and Rajiv Gandhi had shelved the 1980 report; upheld in Indra Sawhney (1992) with the creamy-layer limit
Stood behind Advani's arrest on 23 October 1990, stopping the Ram Rath Yatra, and let the BJP bring his government down rather than reverse it; appointed India's first Muslim Home Minister — against a Kashmir policy that installed Jagmohan over the elected Chief Minister and presided over the Pandit exodus
The Armed Forces (Jammu and Kashmir) Special Powers Act was enacted in September 1990 on his watch, granting lethal force and immunity from prosecution without central sanction, alongside Governor's rule in the state from January — from a politician whose whole career was built on exposing official misconduct
Personally austere and a poet and painter by inclination, with no social-reform or personal-autonomy programme of any kind; this axis's issue space simply does not meet his record
Constituted the Inter-State Council by presidential order on 28 May 1990 under Article 263, acting on a central recommendation of the Sarkaria Commission that had sat unimplemented since its 1988 report, and governed through a National Front resting on the DMK, TDP and AGP
