I was expecting PM to come out and take some responsibility but the whole emotional speech was over the top. Today I need an assertive PM, not someone looking for a Bollywood award.

Very orchestrated feeling, poor and low iq choice for a right wing PM. It's unfortunate need someone better from. Bjp.

Then for me, how many press conferences has he done till date ? 

Indian prime ministers ever did press conferences? Press conferences aren't good for safety of Indian prime ministers where so many terrorists are looking for a chance to create chaos.

Yes, you are right. Manmohan held 3 press conferences in his tenure of Ten years. It shows such press  conferences are rare. Modi needs to show some spine too and hold a few press conferences.

3 ? I just felt we saw at least one per year anyhow Modi has to do one it’s been 7yrs.

Let me take a stab at this

 

- As a PM, he is answerable to the people who elected him

- He has platforms to address people’s concerns , from SM, MKB, direct interactions with people

- Questions and concerns from fellow legislative friends addressed in Parliament debates

- Interviews to journalists on a one on one

- Meetins with CMs 

 

What is a PC? Press journalists asking questions that common people raised and they should be representing people,

- not representing  opposition parties, vested interests.
- Press is not appointed by people, they are private companies that get national importance based on their on self interest. 
- they have not been known to be of noble professionalism anymore, they are as corrupt, MEDIOCRE, and egotistical people driven by self interest 

- PM is not answerable to such Press that is not giving any constructive criticism 

- MMS did some PCs, where Lutyens media asked softball questions. Don’t even compare. Modi has got more  tough questions from so-called Godi media than Lutyens to MMS. What purpose do those PCs serve other than ceremonial?

- just see how mediocre and agenda-driven these the so-called PCs are

 


See how leading qs can be agenda driven

 He doesn't like media putting him in spot. Treating media as enemy is Trump's tactic. This is no different from that tactic. At least he is not openly name-calling them. I will give him that. A leader should be able to come out of his comfort zone and answer the press once in a YEAR? Is it that hard to do for a prime minister? Not once in 7 years is completely indefensible. He is answerable to every Indian citizen. That includes press.

who appointed the press to ask him agenda driven questions? You want a circus side show with journalists like Rajdeep, Rana, Ravish, Arfa and that is only some journalists. Journalists world over have turned left liberal driven by corporate interests. No need to promote them. 
 

Is this good enough to be out of comfort zone?

Calling every media liberal  is a standard excuse that is being peddled by far right across the globe.  There is no right anymore. Far right and left. That's it. Some centrists.

Did you even see that video posted by coffee in above thread. Watch it Hindustan Times one and tell me what purpose that interview or questions served? You can see that one small slip, and it would have become sensational headline. If PC is that then i give a damn about PC which is going to turn into satisfying egoes if few luteyen.

 

After 60 -70 years under family rule, how can you or anyone expect a left or right or centrist media. Those or misnomers, Its luteyens media which exists to serve interest of one and only one family. Only after back yo back BJP wins, you now see people like Arnab. If you still have doubt, look at how British media behaves when it comes to Issues of Royals and monarchy. Their is no left right or centre when it comes to our queen. 
 

 

Give 20 years of non family rule and then we might have a meaningful PC.

Family rule? Vajpayee was part of the family? IK gujral? VP singh? Deve Gowda?
