Finally an article in Rediff that provides food for thoughts.In my view ,the whole argument that " while Westerners function on moral absolutes, Indians function on contextual morality" is far more universal than just indian .More over,its merely two schools approches where one is being "practical" and the other one is being "ideal".Or just about the difference of opinion between liberals & conservatives.And about the Modi example,i wd say in a big vast complex nation like ours one always gonna find Modis,Bal Thakres,Mayawatis & even a Karunanidhi around.Its simply a matter of supply & demand.
