Sinha, Swami, Satrughan and Shiv Sena. All four who now talking in the same tune, critical of the current status of Indian economy are generalists (except Swami) and political opportunists. All have their axe to grind against current Modi government - wrong people trying to say the right thing. Let's look at each case on individual basis.
YASHWANT SINHA - He is generalist to the core, as clearing an Exam in 1950s doesn't make him a great economic professional (though his bureaucratic fraternity are self proclaimed Mr. Know Alls). Yashwant Sinha is doing exactly what an opportunist career Bureaucrat, and a turncoat who has swung like Pendulum from the Left (Socialist) to the Right (Swayamsevak) in his career.
As a bureaucrat he was a well ensconced Babu who licked the b**ls of the Bihar Chief Minister Karpoori Thakur and Chandra Sekhar, both legendary Socialists to climb the Bureaucratic ladder. Sensing VP Singh wave in 1989, he joined politics. Firmly in Chandra Sekhar's camp, he became the Finance Minister in 1991 in his protege's ministry which lasted only for 40 days.
After the Fall of Chandra Sekhar government he joined a resurgent BJP and became close to Advani. He again backstabbed Advani soon after 2005 when Advani praised Jinnah, only to patch with him later - a la, a typical Babu who like cockroach mastered the art of survival.
In 2013, Sinha was 80 and probably became too slow witted to figure out the Modi wave. He boycotted the Goa session of BJP where Modi was declared the Party's Prime Minister candidate. But the Bihari Babu, a master in the art of manipulation later patched up and managed to get a seat for his son and saw that his son became a minister.
Now at 84 and fag end of his career, Yashwant Sinha is talking bullshit to stay in the news. He is a mere generalist, with a politically laced point of view - far from being an expert on economy.
SUBRAMANIAN SWAMI - The only erudite person and economist of substance among the quartet. But his criticism is purely political. The sulking Swami has few Friends and more enemies as he backstabbed all through out his political career. Those who have a short memory - he was the main architect of the downfall of the BJP government in 1999. He is pissed at not getting the Finance ministry which he has been eying since ages. Frustration of not getting it grows with his age.
SATRUGHAN SINHA - A failed actor and a failed politician noted for his cheap histrionics. Does anyone cares for him ?
SHIV SHENA - It has become a toothless tiger after the death of Bal Thackeray whose PUTRA MOHA (Love for son) led to passing the baton to his useless son rather than the more charismatic nephew Raj. The party is more of an liability rather than an asset to BJP now. The cub Thackeray can only mew like a cat, can't roar. Now he tries to mew louder to stay relevant by questioning every decision by BJP - from Bullet train to Books on economics.
