A Narendra Modi Victory Would Bode Ill For India

More than a dozen of India’s most respected artists and academics – including the novelist Salman Rushdie and the sculptor Anish Kapoor – have written to the Guardian to express their “acute worry” at the prospect of Narendra Modi, the controversial Hindu nationalist politician, becoming the country’s prime minister.

      Javi,

      Will this induce the Para-Sinhala and Para-Tamils and oter paras to leave the land of the native Veddha and go back to their homeland South India?

      Then, the curse on the land of the native Vedda will be over.

        Till the night of voting no one knows how it would go.

        A hung parliament NaMo with a couple of smart mangoes will check peter principal.

        Rushide had his former brilliant gorgeous wife in the nude British Tabloid 2007.

        Today she runs a exclusive US chat show- a former miss india iyengar from chennai.

          You missed the whole point. Salman Rushdie is not a minister.

        Modi´s thoughts can only ruin india as it is the case with current regime – of Rajapakshe towards us srilanka. Rajapakshe are far from all vision and wisdom. They are world experts in abusing poor folks to their assets over the years. Thanks go to their parents.This is where my grannies would call it – ” puthe, background and Education of a person makes it what he is”.

          No that’s not it’s arabs that have done so. Islam has told to treat every human equal. Not like your hindunism which teach to segregate base on the caste.
          Islam is better than hindunism that is why hindus convert to Muslims day by day.

        Islam is fanatic, anti women and treats non Muslims badly. The Shariah is barbaric. Just look at Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

    It is possible Narendra Modi may surprise his detractors in India and the world by a form of governance that may do India good. He will doubtless do his best to win more Muslims over to him without alienating his Hindu electorate. Already, he has given nominations to many Muslim leaders in Gujarat and elsewhere re-assuring them not to go by the picture the media opposed to him portrays negatively about him.

    Like the USA changed his stance on him, why not others? In the event he wins comfortably I’d rather wait and watch him for sometime before making pronouncements. BJP is not a one-man Party.

      This is all press press and rahul owned largest press of india (it was a bro in law robert style acquisition)Rahul pass like namal with a difference (because his mum was exposed by Cambridge)was in a american diplomats cubical.go check.
      Rahaul is more muslim like the north with changed names.

      It became fashion to have double barrel name in the UK to add the de inbetween at Lanka in the 60-70’s like a follow up of `Singh` in India because the Maratha army of the Deccan region (it had local Muslims too brave warriors) was the only to be recognised as “martial race” by all Europeans and Islamist- arab turks etc.

      Remember India might say we have millions of internet users and TV but 70% of the vote is rural who don’t see all this but to some extent how much they get paid, may be, for the big day since at $2 per day is not easy on them.

      “He will doubtless do his best to win more Muslims over to him without alienating his Hindu electorate.”

      He wishes to rollback Pakistani terrorism by hotly pursuing the terrorist into Pakistani territory, knowing Modi he might even consider ethnically cleansing all Muslims from India.

        Native Veddah,

        Modi may get Indian forces to chase Pakistani terrorists coming from the other side to where they hail from – but “cleansing India of all Muslims” is the figment of imagination of the ignorant who do not understand India. He will have more than one high profile Muslim Cabinet Minister in the event of a BJP victory. Until recent years there were more Muslims in India than in Pakistan. He will join hands with other Govts working in the region with efforts to weaken Taliban and other extreme religious zealots. He will have the support of most Pakistanis here – because, for decades, they have been unable to do this on their own with a corrupt military that is vulnerable to bribes from many sides. It is Zia-ul-Haq who nurtured and build the Pakistani
        Islamic demon for his own political survival.
        Taliban and other religion extremists in Pakistan have almost brought Pakistan to the brink of disintegration. People in Karachi, Rawalpindi, the Capital, Lahore, Peshawar and the border areas live in fear and anxiety daily. It is reliable reported Nawaz Sharif has already made private initiatives to begin discussions with Modi.

          “It is Zia-ul-Haq who nurtured and build the Pakistani”

          It is Roosvelt (death celebrations just on) who created both istans though combined both had less muslims than the new india.
          Why so to get at Russia which already had the developed nuke at hand and did not stop annexing east Germany (the carnage).
          Meanwhile in the history of the world the west has never been able to capture Russia and neither can it today.
          Russia was ruled by Genghis Khan and his heirs for 400 years.
          Who was the first mughal invader of north India from the west in 1502 but a cross between genghis khan and turk warlord- he forced sharia law right upto himalayas except sikkim, nepal hagaland etc.

          If india stops the water at kashmir the refugee muslims will end up like ethopia.- who is still the owner of the land – late night hari singh.

          Islam Christianity are crusades and foreign to Asia like Buddhism is a crusade for vagabonds but never in China where its more of a philosophy of a great neighbour.

          Modi hasnt eaten the american carrot of visa or grocery shop political woman nisha. Deshi Guju chaddi wala is different is different from western refugee/green card guju- no temple like what the turks wanted it to be in the north.

      I am in agreement with R varathan. BJP has changed its stance radically. BJP started fighting for Muslim votes specially in the north. They have recruited Muslim reps big time. The major turning point is their manifesto although it was a bit too late to release it, the ‘Hindhuthwa’ madness is no more. Which is a welcome sign. I don’t know Modi ideology but BJP has adopted secularism.

    Look how sinister these two authors of india.

    Modi was absolved of the `shock and hype` carried out by the jewish/islamic axis of evil world controlled press made this issue of of a little over 1000 dead bodies (instigated by a couple of jihadist like the 12 sucide bombs in india)

    pakistani born Punjabi Manmohan Singh has ignored all those bombs because they (north india) are all mixed to turkish blood and the sharia law due to conquest at the end 1502 for another 400 years.

    Now you see the Kapoor like the sinhala with changed name- alu porota graft company.

    What India needs is a Mr Clean to drive it forward not chatti puuti graft goondas and rigged state.

    These two authors are just opportunist not the Czechoslovakian play wright who kept his word did what he said (Czechoslovakia is not in an EC crisis) and went into retirement just like Chandra Gupta Maurya the Great- what a man to die like Gautama.

    There has been more riots in Congress held times in India. The Anti Sikh riots during Congress times killed more than few thousand people. Infact the COngress held goverment asked the army to directly enter the holiest of the Sikh Shrines – The golden Temple

    Mr Modi only became the Chief Minister the day before the riots. Considering how new he was he did pretty well to the riots which was first started when a train load of HIndus were burnt alive the day before – as retaliation.

    Having said that in a country of One billion people is is minuscule. The Anti TAmil riots in 83 too killed a few thousand people. That is a a country of around sixty million people.
    May be this might be more in depth

    BTW – Anish Kappor and Salman Rushdie are British Citizens not Indians. The article is wrong to call them Indians though they have indian Ancestry. SAlman Rushdie – Indian Muslim, Anish Kappor – Mixed – Jewish and Hindu

    India needs a leader like Modi at this crucial hour. The threats of Islamic Terrorists Organizations and China cannot be tolerated anymore. If there should be peace and order in India as well as in South Asia, Modi should become Prime Minister.

    When Modi becomes PM all Muslims in India and south Asia will be in danger of Gujarat 2002 type ethnic cleansing.

    SL Muslims are in greatest danger. If BBS joins RSS (some people argue they already have) then forget about peace.
