Going by the enthusiasm of the people and the
overwhelming response that Mr. Narendra Modi is getting across the country one
can safely conclude that he is destined to be coronated as the next Prime
Minister of India. There are quite a large number of people, who dislike Narendra
Modi to the extent to hating him. Their hatred is so deep and diabolic that they
cannot be convinced with any amount of logic or reasoning. Modi bashers say that
he has become popular because he is being projected by some important corporate
houses of the country with the help of paid media and because of the support of
a cadre based organisation like the RSS. They also say that Narendra Modi is a
rabid communal person and he has polarised the people of the country based on
the religion, which will be detrimental of the polity of the country in the
days to come.
However, they conveniently ignore and forget
the fact that Narendra Modi has become immensely popular in the country not
only because of the reasons being given by his adversaries but there are many
more factors which has been responsible to make him what he is. Is it not a
fact that most of the political parties, particularly the Congress Party, have
not been indulging in the appeasement of the Muslims and treating them as vote bank?
Is it not true that Congress Party and many of its allies have not perpetuated
the caste politics and the cult of dynastic politics? Can anybody deny that
there has been a backbreaking rise in the prices during the regime of Dr. Man
Mohan Singh, which is run by the remote control of Ms Sonia Gandhi? Is it not a
fact that many swindles, scandals and cases of corruption have not eaten the
country to hollow during the last ten years of Congress Government?
It is a known fact, that the foreign policy of
this country has no say in the comity of the nations. India is no longer
respected as the strong and powerful country in the world. Even the smaller
countries do not bother much about India. The relationship with the neighboring
countries like; Nepal, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Maldives has touched to its
nadir. Pakistan, although a failed state and a bankrupt country, has never been
friendly with India, yet it is poking its nose in the internal affairs of the
country. Terrorist activities in India often take place with assistance and
complicity of Pakistan. Many modules of terrorists have sprung up across India
with the monetary support of Pakistan. Pakistan also works as the conduit
between the Indian terrorists and terrorism exporting countries like Saudi
Arabia.
These weaknesses of the Government and the
Administration have left the people with no choice but to go to Mr. Narendra
Modi, who has emerged as one of the strongest leaders the country has seen
after independence. While all political parties are bending over
backwards to appease the minorities but here
is a person who says that he will not succumb to any pressure and will remain
upright to every citizen of the country regardless of caste, creed or religion
without any fear or favor of anybody. That is what India needs at this time.
The political terra firma has almost become
barren and that is the reason that Modi haters take the shelter behind the
Gujarat riots of 2002. They shamelessly use the snoop gate or, the estranged
relationship with wife against him. The fact is that in both cases the
complaints have not come from the side of those who have supposedly suffered.
The woman of the snoop gate has not said against Narendra Modi. His wife
Yashoda Ben, who was married to him in the childhood, has no regrets for not
being with Narendra Modi. She has herself said that she prays to God that he
becomes the Prime Minister and serve the country in the best possible manner. All the political adversaries of Narendra
Modi have been side lined whether they are the leaders of the BJP like; L.K.
Advani, Sushma Sauraj, Murli Manohar Joshi or Yashwant Singh. His opponents in
the Congress Party like; Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi or Dig-
Vijay Singh find themselves completely disillusioned. Man Mohan, the Prime
Minister, is completely out of scene. Mulayam Singh, Mayawati, Jayalaitha, Mamta
Bengerjee and Nitish Kumar have hardly any role to play.
Arvind
Kejriwal could have certainly changed the political discourse of the country if
he had not been in the tearing hurry of becoming the Prime Minster of the
country. In his impatience to get the power he even jettisoned his guru and
mentor Anna Hazare. Anna Hazare must be credited to have changed the thought -process of the most of the people of
particularly of the youngsters of the country. He was the harbinger of the hope
for the young generation, which has been crumbling under the burden of
corruption and unemployment. Nevertheless, this man Arvind Kejriwal drifted
from path as shown by Anna Hazare. People believed him for some time but now he
stands exposed. That is the reason that Mr. Arvind Kejriwal and his party has
been dumped on the way side by the people of the country.
The type of response and support, which Mr.
Narendra Modi received in Varanasi when he had gone to file his nomination paper,
was unprecedented And that is why, we find a ray of hope and wish Narendra Modi
gets absolute majority in Lok Sabha to bring about the changes that he has
envisioned. May God help our country and us!
