Narendra Modi is BJP's PM candidate for 2014 !

If a person can successfully rule a state and bring it up to the front level he is definitely capable of doing that to the entire nation...If we could have a economist with aabsolutely no political experience as our Failed Pm why not Modi who has plenty of experience having ruled and made Gujrat one of the leading states of the country today...Modi is probably the only suitable PM candidate today for our country ..Secularism is a strange word coined by the Congress party coined to suit their needs - it mostly means Hindu bashing and pampering the minorities when it suits them and definitely Modi doesnt practice that kind of secularism from what we see...

I agree with you. The entire nation functions on almost the identical lines as that of the state. And if any individual has the power on his side to carry things out, why can't he do it? The size of the land doesn't matter in this case.

I think the kind of praise that Modi is being showered upon, is a little misplaced, Gujarat is one of those states which luckily have had very pragmatic leaders as CMs who ruled the state with superior governance and Modi should not be allowed to hog the entire credit for Gujarat development.

I have seen the way things function with my own eyes.We were in Ahemadabad and Gandhi nagar in May last Year and I was amazed to see the efficiency with which things are run. He has been in power for now almost 13 years and a lot of the credit should go to him.People love hi and Ahmedabad is a very safe place where one can travel at any time of the night.
I was surprised to see some really old state transport buses being run from Gandhi nagar to Ahmedabad and was told that all the old buses which were left to rot by the previous govt had been pulled out repaired and are being used...

There is a lot of euphoria on Narendra Modi and interest generated on Rahul Vs. Modi. There are elections in some state assemblies also. Let us see how these will affect the overall parliamentary elections.

Here is a link that studies in depth the Rahul Vs Modi story and the forthcoming assembly elections and like affect on national politics.

HT is always been partisan and its chief editor roams around electronic news channels and supporting a particular party. For me HT lost its credibility due to its partisan in nature. In democracy, the fourth estate (media) is the custodian of our constitution, and they should not support any particular political thoughts, it is for citizens to support it not them.

The same goes for NDTV as well, pranav Mukherji shows his pregerence to the cOngress party a bit too openly , at times not even letting the BJP members have their say while he calls them for debates in the studio...

It is true that Narendra Modi has,indeed, caught on the imagination of the people of India and his political opponents, with all their false appearances of being confident in exploiting his very controversial role in Gujarat riots, are behaving like headless chickens! Who is less communal in Indian politics, you tell me? Wasn't Rajiv Gandhi, who attempted to exploit communal sentiments in Shabano case, in Ram Mandir case?? What are the prime motives of Mulayam's or even Mamata Banerjee's brand of politics? It is the height of hypocrisy and all that to single out Narendra Modi for communal politics when the celebrated secularists got away with it committing far more heinous crimes in the name of secularism.

Had it not been for the 'registered secularists' our country and countrymen would not be suffering that badly. They used so called 'secularism' for their own benefit. They are probably taking more advantage of religions compared to so called 'non-secularists' Anything and everything goes in the name of secularism. Why do they have to wear a round cap to spit fire against a particular religion? Just try to do the same against the other religion and see the result!

Mamata Banerjee is considered a fire brand leader. I feel that there is no communal politics in west Bengal. Neither the Left nor Trinmool nor Congress play communal politics there. I hope you will please elucidate why you club Mamata Banerjee with Mulayam singh. This is only out of curiosity.

Yes there is no communal politics but it is communist politics in W.B. I fail to understand how Marx is still so loved in that state or why do they oppose development on mass basis. Marxism is a sociological theory, a philosophical method, and a revolutionary view of social change. Where is all that in West Bengal?

I guess, West Bengal is a right example of secularism. The state has never been in the news for such thngs, at least. It could be the culture of the state that such things do not exist there. I believe, other states in India can take a leaf out of WB's book.

Nobody can form Communist or Marxist set up in a state. You need to run a state according to constitution. Budh Dev Bhattacharya himself observed that he was building capitalism and not communism in state. Mamata Banerjee obstructed his attempts to industrialize the state and consequently Tata Nano had to be moved to Gujarat. It is aptly said and Budha Dev Bhattacharya also reiterated that 'Marxism Leninism is not a dogma but a guide to action."

Do you mean that WB is free from communal violence? It may be less in number. But its not free from Communal flare ups. One I can quote is Violent riots erupted in Deganga area in North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal on the construction of a Puja pendal in 2010. Unfortunately I was stuck up there for some time.

I am happy to be trying to meet your curiosity. I consciously bracketed her with Mulayam mainly because I find her attempts to woo Muslims in the state have ominous similarities with that of Mulayam. Her guilty conscience involving her association with BJP in the past , might be the possible reason. She stunned me by her infantile decision to grant a monthly allowance to Imams of the state which mercifully has been set aside by Calcutta High Court. Hope I sound convincing!!

I think the state has managed to keep its record of communal harmony relatively clean because it saw the diabolical face of communalism but I have doubts how long the state would remain so as it shares a very long border with Bangladesh which ranks very high in the list of Jihadi Muslim fundamentalism.

Absolutely, I agree with yours point, and also in addition I think all national parties should declare their PM candidate, so that voters can choose from among them, and when that party comes to power and the person who is declared PM candidate takes oath, the voter then can feel that he has given the vote to this person.

What you suggest is not according to our political system as enshrined in constitution. There is no direct election of Prime minister. Only elected MPs elect Prime minister. That depends on composition of parliament after election. Also consider practical aspects. If smaller parties like CPI(M), Trinmool Congress, Biju Janata Dal, Rashtriya janata dal declare their P.M. candidate, this will be too bizarre and funny. If no party gets a majority- which usually happens- the Prime minister candidate will emerge only after parliamentary election and the exercise of declaring P.M. candidate beforfehand will be an exercise in futility. As people do not vote directly for P.M., there is absolutely no significance of so called Prime ministerial candidate before new Lok Sabha is formed.
