Prime Ministers in Scandinavian cpountries:

A few years ago I learnt the news of Swedish Prime Minister walking on the platform with his wife to a cinema theatre like a common citizen for viewing a feature film. He was done to death on one such occasion with no commotion towards the security of the VIP unlike in India where battalions are deployed towards  the security of our leaders at a colossal expense to the state exchequer.

Here is another PM of Finland, Juha Sipila, 55, a soft spoken engineer who earned millions as an IT entrepreneur before joining politics took office of prime minister in 2015 and who continues to fly private jets for his official business outside Finland at his own expense by spending hundreds of thousands of euros. 

Once he had travel for an hour sitting on the toilet seat due to non availability of passenger seat in ambulance flight in November 2015 after coalition negotiations!

Can we expect a similar behaviour from our leaders by 2050 at least!
