Narendra Modi is India’s 14th prime minister and has been in power since May 2014. He is the first prime minister to have been born after Independence. Modi is a leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and has served as Gujarat Chief Minister from 2001 to 2014. His Lok Sabha constituency Varanasi, though, is in Uttar Pradesh, and Modi has represented this seat since 2014.
Narendra Modi joined the RSS, the BJP’s ideological parent, in the 1970s and joined the BJP in 1987. The following year he was chosen as the party’s general secretary for Gujarat. Modi took oath as Gujarat CM in 2001, after replacing Keshubhai Patel, who was held responsible for the government’s poor response to the Bhuj earthquake. Modi contested his first-ever election in 2002, shortly after which the Gujarat riots fueled controversy over his leadership. The Supreme Court in 2022 gave a clean chit to Modi and 63 others in a plea exploring a larger conspiracy behind the riots.
Forget about the BJP, anyone with half a brain should be scared whenever Rahul Gandhi opens his mouth. To put it extremely politely, he is quite liberal with facts. His agenda seems quite sinister as all evidence points to a scorched earth policy.
In olden days it used to take a child to tell the king that he has no clothes. Today there is no one in congress who can tell Rahul that he is not a leader and cannot pose a serious challenge to his political opponents. After Indira gandhi all great leaders of congress have been sidelined to make way for a dynast whose knowledge of Indian politics and culture has become a jock.
Rahul Gandhi maybe is maturing, but where are the others…India needs more leaders in opposing political spectrum to continue its march…One PM Modi or one Rahul will not do…we need a bunch of great leaders who can take this country forward…but the problem is none of the main political parties are nurturing good leaders, BJP only looks at PM or Amit Shah, Congress only Rahul…….we need alternative ideas, perspectives and opinions to grow..
One matter of concern is the quality of construction of prestigious public projects that is showing up all over the country. Beyond the cliched collapsing bridges of Bihar. It lies at the confluence of governance and economic development. At a time when it is the government that is doing so much of the capital spending for the economy. It also gets reflected in global perceptions of India as a long term investment destination. Merits a comprehensive review and course correction.
Vir sanghvi and his pathetic deductions ” Much of the PM’s power came, not from any official authority, but from the view, held by many people (and most strongly by Modi himself) that he was now a force of nature, even if he was not (as he suggested) entirely “biological”. ” PM Modi clearly stated that he was destined to serve the ppl of INDIA .
Vir Sanghvi has eternal enmity with PM Modi ,so any worthless person willing to shout at PM Modi, is encouraged and referred to as hero.
Vir Sanghvi Write an opinion on RADIA TAPES.
As an old saying goes “you can make a Pappu out of RaGa but you can’t make a RaGa out of Pappu.” Attempts by Pidis will be futile. May be Pidis will get a few bones thrown at them in the process.
Lackeys in the media are trying hard to make RaGa out of Pappu.
Just wanted to see the author
Normally, i agree with what Vir Sanghvi writes.
But this time I do not agree with what he says about Rahul Gandhi. Rahul Gandhi continues to blabber here and there. His comments are just unverified comments, like tea stall chatting at addas. I am sure we have better leaders in the opposition who can speak better. I can speak better than Rahul. He desperately needs public speaking training. He does not speak with facts, but off the cuff. Pls do no patronize him. He is not PM material yet, not even CM material. In fact if BJP ever loses, it would be for its own mistakes and not that Congress/India has anything better to offer the people of this country. Worst, he still moves around in a pair of trousers and Tshirt. Amazing dressing sense for a parliamentarian!!!
The article which you folks wanted to publish for so long. I am sure this was not written recently. It just got customised based on the current situation and published.
