I dont think any one is side stepping the issue but most of them are recognising the issue and at the same time pointing out that there are many positive points along with negative riots. It can be said with no doubt that Gujarat has done much better than most states in development- I can vouch for it having lived there before modi and after modi.
Also the choice one has in India does not augur well. Congress has plenty of blood in its hands and the same with most political parties. Besides all this is new ' minority appeasement ' policies. You cant bt discriminated against just because you were born in a community that happens to be a mjority in the country. If you evaluate the economic progress - christians and muslims are better of than their hindu brethren. 80% of guld expatriates are muslims and christians get plenty of funding from west which helps them get better education which in turn opens up job opportunities.
Time has now come for some effort to be spared for struggling majority - who have always struggle, from the time of Babur, Gazni, British and congress after independence
