RE:Modi
by isaac easow on Dec 13, 2007 08:39 PM

Its a shame that as Indians we continue to promote such people as Narendra Modi to be our leader. Are we proud of our heritage as a peace loving people or are we beginning to become like Pakistan and a few other nations where intolerance is preached and practiced. There have been several cases of injustice and human rights violation of the worse kind in Gujarat. However this does not deter the 45% of the Gujarat voters from voting for N. Modi. Th reason for this kind of phenomenon is definitely because of Modi's dynamism and success in wooing the electorate unlike his contemoraries both in Congress and BJP alike. Modi should be given credit for several developmental projects in the state. However we do not give such kind of credit to other CM's in Andhra, Maharastra or Tamil Nadu. Is it because those CM's are bad or poor performers? Or is it because of the super hype generated by Modi self glorifying himself?
We had several years of peace in Gujarat because the actual rioters and trouble makers were in power. This is called "forced" peace. Im sure if the Congress gets back to power, BJP will start their "rioting" program starting with Ahmedabad and Baroda like they used to in the early 90's when they started their "Hindutva" laboratory in those cities.
Modi will win this election thanks to his mesemerising charisma which has hypnotised the 45% Gujarat electorate. That 45% will ensure his win for 95-100 seats while Congress would have to be content with 75-80 seats.
