Modi is a hero to some and villain to some people. One thing for sure, he sure can draw passionate support and passionate enmity. 

If he wins that will be good for the "secularists", they can beat the same drums again for 5 more years.

I was reading the BBC- Profile of Modi...found it to be interesting:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/1958555.stm

These excerpts (if true, are revealing):

"Mr Modi reportedly married a woman working as a teacher in a poor Muslim area about 100 kilometres (60 miles) from Gujarat's commercial capital, Ahmedabad.But his official biography makes no mention of it.Critics say the omission is in keeping with the value that old-world RSS members place on a life of bachelorhood - allowing in their view true dedication to work as an RSS leader.

But the 52-year-old minister is not given to spartan tastes - he is widely known instead for his love of expensive clothes and designer accessories. "

If true,  he seems more like regular politician and  a fake religious fanatic (playing the role) after all!  (Which oddly makes him seem less dangerous).

He is not a fake fanatic; he is a real fanatic. He is directly responsible for the death of thousands. He had given instructions to his goons that for three days they were free to butcher as many muslims as possible.

bringing water, power, basic education, and justice - satisfying basic human and societal needs using taxpayers' money - cannot, by any stretch of the imagination, be called "an astonishing track record." 


on the other hand, modi's and his government's complicity in the mass murder of gujarati muslims is indeed astonishing barbarity. read about it in these excerpts from a long and detailed report by Human Rights Watch, and international human rights organization:

If minarities are involved in some way, then any potential Hindu accused is convected first and will stay convicted until proven innocent - if at all.

How come you are jumping in the badwagon - of extra constitutional conviction while all the time espousing the pre-eminance of constitution and economic well being over everything else....

Gujrat violence after Godra incident was anatural reaction of masses.When masses move impossoble to control.Histoy is full of such mass movements i.e.Russion revolution.Chinese revolution.French revolutionand Indian struggle for independence.What we must consider is overall economic progress of state rather than such reactions on godra incedent.After that incedent no such violence has occoured.It prooves itself.

  Amerasian posted Re:Narendra Modi on 11 mnths ago
"Gujrat violence after Godra incident was a natural reaction of masses."
I call it as an act of vengeance by a large group of unscrupulous people. They could not care less about the victims of Godhra incident. They just got what they wanted--an excuse to kill thousands of muslims and rape all those muslim girls and women. Perhaps, it was their opportunity to make their sick fantasies to come true. People were killed in Godhra incident, but not raped; shops were not burned down. The Godhra was targeted at one group (50-100) of people, NOT 100s of thousands of people. So, you think "Russian & Chinese revolutions" as a natural reaction by masses? LOL........Indian struggle for independence? Huh?! If thousands of Brits were killed and the Brit girls and women were raped, they would killed thousands of Indians. What if there was a "natural reaction" to the 9-11-01 terrorist attacks in this country? We are talking about 3,000+ deaths vs. 56 deaths. Do you know why thousands of muslims were not killed and/or raped? Not because the americans are saints and angels. There is such a thing as law enforcement here. Even if there was such "natural reaction", the govt. would have stepped in and squelched the uprising. Think about this: what if an incident similar to Godhra occurred in Kashmir or Afghanistan? Do you think those cowardly gujjus would have reacted the same way? Absolutely not. I can bet my life on it. They are sooooooooooo brave when they outnumber their victims by 1000 to 1.  I am astonished by the 'highly educated' CHers, who continue to justify the aftermath of the Godhra incident. Is it because the victims were muslims?
  Uppili posted Re:Narendra Modi on 11 mnths ago
I am glad that I am only a high school dropout to understand all these complexities....

Chill out guys... everyone has own views and that is that. Of late, in CH I notice that "if you don't agree with my view and my views ONLY, then you are this, that, and everything"  In real world, MT Sonia joins hands with MK after accusing him for years of killing her PM  husband. BSP joins hands with BJP, Fernandes - the holy socialist - is a close ally of BJP, the Commies are congress pals - while Indira went after the commies like a hound dog. Muslims are supporting Modi who is accused of killing them, and Mayawati allies with Brahmins - while installing Vengaya Naicker's statue at the same time.

The single-issue based judging adapted by many CHers are all signs of a child's mindset or a senile man's mindset.

What nonsense (as usual)! 

Post something sensible on any topic and see what reaction you get.

In fact, your post today on docking umpires' match fees for clear errors is quite reasonable. (I didn't take the time to post my agreement earlier.)
  Uppili posted Re:Narendra Modi on 11 mnths ago
Everyone knows by now that anyone whom you dont like or disagreeing with you is spouting nonsense according to you and of course you are the only learned sage who spouts wisdom 24/7.

Keep spouting. The only reason why many people are not jumping in to nastily criticize your posts is for the "overall" respect for your age - believe me - that is the only reason for me to stay mild in your case. So, step off the high pedestal  and stop pontificating to everyone. The contraditions in your posts and actions are numerous and perennial to say the least, but most dont take them seriously bcz this is only a forum for people to "run" their mind through.

So stop censoring and censuring people's views - however wrong it might seem to you. If you think you (or your cohorts) are the only one who are sensible and super-intelligent level headed humanists - then you should also have the control to avoid the senseless, non-sensical people likeme.

Shouldn't be too hard for geniuses like you - rite ?

OK. That applies to those you cheaply label as fakularists, too.

That, too, applies to your cheap labeling of everyone who disagrees with you as a "fakularist."

This statement is also of the "then you are this, that, and everything" kind. ;)

an important part of the constitutional duties of narendra modi, gujarat's elected chief minister and his government, and of lal kishenchand advani, the then union home minister, was to protect all the citizens of gujarart - regardless of their religion, caste, or sex - and their property, from violence of all kinds, including, and perhaps, in particular, what you call "a natural reaction." 


narendra modi did not merely fail to protect the citizens of gujarat; he and his government were complicit (had partnership) in the the post godhra violence - mass murder, rape, arson, looting, and destruction of property - directed at the muslims of his state. 


for a detailed account, and evidence of modi's and his government's complicity, read the report by Human Rights Watch, an international human rights organization, to which i've posted a link in my reply to punjabilad.

Modi has certainly raised the bar of a CM's performance.I watched with interest his speech in the HT summit,anchored by Rajdeep Sardesai of last month.This is posted on youtube.Instead of sticking with the theme of the summit-the future of India,Sardesai and all those present,were taking great pleasure in discussing Godhra.Anyway,the chaos that prevailed in Gujarat in 2002 was a reaction to Godhra.But coming back to the point that you've raised,it is indeed a national shame that the elite Indian mindset is to focus on Godhra rather than the fantastic changes Modi has heralded in his state.we,as a people should be asking the CM's of other states why their states have lagged behind Gujarat in terms of progress.Modi made some brilliant points during his speech.One that impressed me most was that we should have made the development of the nation a movement-like the movement  for independence.He pointed out that in order for any movement to be successful,one had to be emotional about it.That is why India was successful in getting her independence.People were emotional.They believed their contribution would make a difference.But,our current politicans have not been able to stir any feeling in minds of the common man.
I have read you blog on the apathy of Indians/Hindus.And I couldn't agree more with what you've said.Our indifference to the Hindus struggle during the Bhrindenwale time,the plight of Hindus in Kashmir,attack on the Parliament,train blasts in Mumbai have got such a luke warm response from journalists like Sardesai and his "secular"thinking clan.This mindset ,even apparent by the questions posed by the audience in the HT summit is a national tragedy.And this mindset is the spoke in the wheel for the progress of India.
It's frustrating to see the news reporting in big dalies like TOI.Even more sickning is the indifference in the common man.Blogs like movie reviews get a bigger readership than those dealing with hard hitting truths like the Hindus need to wake up.When will the apathetic idiot Hindu see the truth?When all his women have been raped?or when he loses his identity?or when he loses his land like the pundits in Ksahmir?
Only in India could you have had a Sikh  PM or a Muslim President.A foreign illeterate Italian woman grooming her good for nothing son to be the future PM.Would America ever have a non Christian as their President?
We need more leaders like Modi,who take pride in being Hindu,are not apologetic about that and also bring about big economic changes.
