Even highly educated people in India praise Modi. They are speaking through their right to vote. Let the journos talk shit. The congress leaders say that they could not send their measge to the masses. It is high time they read the message sent out by the masses and change themselves accordingly. Pseudo-seculars, please lesten to the Sound of Silence.

If electoral success were a measure of a politician's statesmanlike quality, we would have had a thousand leaders. Demagogery wins the day, and Modi is quite adept at it.

Even Hitler had great political support from the masses. It was a just a precursor to what followed later. Modi's elevation to the national stage could be scary.

Rasheed, If you compare hitler elections to indian elections, i think we should stop democratic processes in india .. right ? What do you suggest for it then ? Military rule like Pakistan ? or kingdoms in most arabian countries ? First try to understand the value of democracy. Then respect the mandate.

Rasheed - it is the enlightened thinking of the West to condemn Hitler's action. But such enlightenment has eluded your ilk for 1400 years - so the less you talk about Hitler the better. Hitler's example is welcome from genuine people, not from hypocrites like you
Look at this article. In the last paragraph, Karan says "Only the sudden removal of Narendra Modi can stop this. For he is the agent forcing this change. And whilst he%u2019s with us, he will do just that." Modi is a representative of the people of Gujarat. How can a media person advocate his murder?

What a load of rubbish. Once I regarded Mr. Thapar as a good journlist, I couldn't believe while reading this article, how a person like Thapar could write such a load of rubbish. I thought phenomena of disillusionment was limited to uneducated masses of india, but I have changed my mind ( rather got illuminated ) about "Educated" , "Well Respected" english journalist, right now I have decided not even read what they write. Come on thapar see a Shrink you need help.

DONT BLAME KARAN. AFTER ALL HE HAS TO LIVE FOR LONG. IF HE PRAISES MODI OR EVEN HINDU SENTIMENTS, THE OTHER SIDE WILL ISSUE FATWA ON HIM.
IF HE DEMONISE MODI OR HINDU SENTIMENTS, NO FATWA WILL COME FROM ANYWHERE.
THATS THE REASON ALL THESE JOURNALISTS ARE AFRAID OF.

It is in a Hindustan Times article by make-over-desperately-required Thapar titled "'Modi'fication of politics". Apparently he thinks the pun amusing
Media, particularly some in the English Media, are not only communal, but extremely corrupt and sold out to foreign interests. They live on the doles from western media and countries, & christian organisations to spread all sorts of caulumny against Hindus in India. 14 of the 17 editors of major media are christians and/or communists. Christians are loyal to the western culture and to Sonia, and the communists to China and are particularly anti-Hindu. India Today, which was a reputed journal till 3 years ago, has entered into relations of sorts with foreign media such as CNN(an anti-India US channel) and Voice of America(another anti-Indian propaganda media channel)and started two TV channels Headlines News(in English) and Aajtak in Hindi. Both are highly tilted towards foreign loyalties and spread foreign culture in India. Headline News(I call it Headless News) can be seen with most foreign progams, foolish and stupid programs about western cultural mores and personal details of Hollywood actresses, and models. These editors are obsessed with their white skin. No wonder they love Sonia Gandhi and support her against their own countrymen. TOI, once a respected paper now includes and parades the bare skin of white models and propagates such culture among immature Indian girls. No wonder the morals of many Indian girls have seriously deteriorated. They are in short cultural, and political Jaichands of India and can even be called traitors, who have sold their souls. I consider
Uniformed SL Armymen abducted a woman Saturday early morning from her house in at Jaffna, and gang raped her in a shrub land near her house, according to a Women Welfare volunteer Organization located in Jaffna. The woman was later found lying unconscious by her relatives and was carried to nearby hospital for treatment.
The Women Welfare organization that brought out the episode remained anonymous due to fear for their lives from Sri Lanka Army (SLA) troopers and SLA-backed paramilitaries who are in-charge of sexual violence over women in Jaffna peninsula. The officials of Women Welfare Organization also refused to disclose their names fearing the same fate from SL Army.
The gang-raped woman was alone at her home bathing in the backyard, planning for a trip to a nearby temple were her husband and children had gone to attend December early dawn Thiruvempaavai prayers.
The abduction and gang rape of the woman and the alleged involvement of SLA and SLA-backed paramilitaries have alarmed high the peninsula residents already living in a climate of terror. The SL Army high command has repeatedly refuted allegations directed against the army despite loads of instances of sexual violence over women taking place in the region largely during curfew hours.
The list of very recent victims include a 16-year-old student, a lady teacher, a family woman in Vadamaraadchi, an elderly woman in Neerveali, one another school girl who was raped, killed and

heyyy lankans are hindus as well stop creating a divide on language dude...yes the acts of the srilankan army have got out of control and something neeeds to be done about it.. Lankan people have been part of Hinduism since long b4 Ram..Ravan was the king of Lanka but the people of Lanka were Hindus(even Ravan)... Ramayan shows how cruel humans can be..Ravan was rakshas but the people of Lanka hated him..
Nice article with clear viewpoints. Not only Hindus, most progressive and partiotic people should support this man who shoots straight, is very effective and talks very less. He has a capacity rarely seen in Indian politics and a good personality to match that. No wonder, Gujarat has seen through the communal, selfish and opportunistic Congress, Communists and "Secularists" and given them a slap to remember for some time. Secularism means equal respect for all religions and sects and is not the exclusive preserve of the elitist and clueless "English" media (most of whom are Nehruvian socialists in attitude). Judging by the real articles appearing in few media, Modi has been unfairly castigated by people who are in reality of poor merit and morality. Hope Modi goes on to becoming the PM someday, it is high time we have such an efficient and honest person at the helm. If India gets a president like Kalam, a PM like Modi and an election commissioner like T.N.Seshan continuously for about 15-20 years, we will rule the world.

Hi Rasheed,
I am a Christian myself and strongly object to your viewpoint that Modi can spell disaster for minorities. You are talking as though India exists only for minorities. This kind of crap is what gives minorities such a bad name and suspect in the eyes of many, many Hindus who are among the most progressive and tolerant people in the world. As a proud Indian, I put my religion behind the nation as this nation has always been good to all, whether they are Christians, Muslims, Parsis, Jains or Buddhists. So please do not allow your personal bigotry and hatred to cloud your judgement. I have read an article in NDTV.Com (which I consider to be completely biased against Modi) where Modi's childhood friend (who happens to be a Muslim) strongly defending Modi for all the false propoganda and lies spread against him. Inspite of all the accusations, not one bit of them have stuck onto Modi and he has emerged as a very tall leader. His sagacity and personal integrity have marked him out even within his own party and please recognize and respect that, rather than clinging to perceptions. The so-called secular politicians and money-pilfering NGOs cause enough damage to the reputation of minorities, please do not add to that. I want India to be more strong, prosperous and progressive and do not want your suggestion of "minority" blanket to cover my eyes.
A Dalit President could not save Dalits in our country. A Sardar could not save Sardars. A Muslim President could not save Muslims. A Modi will not save Hindus also. 1 lakh farmers suicided in Vajpayee's regime. A secular solution must come at centre.
Nice article, mentions all straight facts which are rarely written by the media.
Irrespective of people of gujarat, all Hindu's are proud of Modi's achivements. He has given a sense of pride among the hindu community.
The so called secular forces and media consider minority appeasement as secular whereas treating every citizen with equal rights as communalism. There are still lot of people who have to realize this.
Excellent article, please keep writing, atleast some will realize the facts.
