i am a non-gujarati staying in Gujarat i have seen the progress of Gujarat
Go to ahmedabad , Gandhinagar, Surat, Valsad, Jamnagar, Rajkot places you can see the growth of Gujarat
Narendra Modi has made Gujarat flourish. He had done lot for Gujarat. Now tell me who is clean in politics. Each and every CM plays some dirty politics. I dont say they should do it, but also try to see brighter side of an issue
I have gone all over north of india, but after seven pm you will not see females on roads. but Gujarat is really safe, women of any age can move around freely here. People please dont conclude that they all are prosti....
Now for hindu - muslim riots, truely speaking there is harmony between both religion. Hindus eagerly wish their muslim brothers and similarily muslim communities get lot of their wages from hindu festivals
politians donot want them to stay in harmony. so whenever some spark comes out, the politians send their gundas to slay out hindu-muslims.
then these politians put blame that these many hindus killed these many muslims killed. when riots break out actually the public try to save their neighbours irrespective of religion
So i request people to stop blaming one man. Please see the progress of a state and stop prejudicing a person.

If you go back a do a little reading you will find exactly the same things said for Hitler (development and pride etc) . Do some reading I am sure you can do away with your pedestrian views.
If somebody gives you lot of wealth, prosperity but murders & rapes your family members. IS He GOOD PERSON IN YOUR BOOKS? WAKE UP MAN WAKE UP!!! UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE DEFENDING>

It's only in India where modi can sway masses and stay in power. In US he would be behind bars fo rlife.
I am from North and was working in Gujarat when the riots happened. While I agree with you on the progress made in Gujarat andsafety of women..it is not because of Modi.These factors have been there for a period even before his regime. Even before Godhra Gujarat no.2 after Maharashtra on development Index. The Gujarati culture,unlike north ..respects women and the freedom & safety that they enjoy is enviable for other states. Its a cultural thing in Gujarat..Modi has not made it.India overall as an economy has been doing well and states like Gujarat with Developed infrastructure and enterprising poulation have done better. Mr Modi may have done something as he has been in a corner but basically he has got lucky on the developmental front.
There is no denying the Chasm that has been created amongst Hindus and Muslims in Gujarat. I have seen in pre Godhra time ...the Muslim community was coming out of the chasm that envelopes it because of lack of education but post godhra there are lesser jobs for them as many Hindus hesitate in employing .It has reduced their chances of coming out and have set them back by 20 years. I myself was stuck without food and water for two days and have seen the sentiments of the population ...It was horrible. I wish it never comes back on any community...EVER.
