Good article except the comparison with Kamaraj & Indira Gandhi. Both did not have the Grit & Conviction of Modi. Indira's Emergency and Kamaraj's follies are very well known

You are right. Kamaraj was not corrupt personally but he showered his Nadar Caste with innumerable favors. But Kamaraj was a skirt-chaser (as JN allowed only people like him to form a coterie- Kamaraj, Kairon, Atulya Ghosh, SK Patil and threw out honest people like Kriplani, Rajaji etc. So don't belittle Modi by describing him as a Kamaraj but compare him to Kakkan)
As to Indira Feroze Khan, it shows Raman has yet to know about that shrill scheming person who carried forward JN's scheme of destroying India from within. JN was responsible for the Kashmir and Tibet problem, IFK for Punjab and Roberto Feroze Khan for Assam and NE and unleashing cassocked terrorists in NE States.
