I think this gentleman was an ambassador in India in congress time .... it’s clear from his speech and knowledge about Modi

[tstanmoysamanta]

it's actually Indian patriot not "Hindu Nationalist"

No polarizing figure can win in landslide victory in India,

Again and again foreign fails to understand Modi and Indian psyche. Indian culture is inclusive in nature.
Minorities are living happily and safe here.

As Buddha once proclaimed - “the world is a jungle of opinions”. The utter equivocal rhetoric in today’s news media is nothing but opinions.
I am proud of Modi and Indian democracy doing the right thing for the country and humanity!

May be you should try something new, the "Polarizing and Hindu nationalist" is becoming a little stale, the victory of Modi in this election is a response to such blatant trash propagated by select media. Modi is a master strategist who will simply turn these baseless insults to work for him.

900 million people voted. Not 600 million. Correct your info.

Please don't make any conclusion about India or Modi. We know what is best for us and we are smart enough to give proper judgement. Don't pass any judgement on us, and try to explore more about India and Modi, instead of "I think". India is already emerging better than ever and we will be more successful very soon.

Modi is the right Prime Minister that India need now and till 2029.. He has the guts to take on the world and make India a superpower.
I support Modi forever..

I m glad you didnt mention Hinduism like other stupid news outlets

I think for majority young people like me who just turned 18 it’s the major development, infrastructure projects, digitalisation, nationalism and the fact that the man is very hard working and as per reports not corrupt made it a huge factor to contest against a party whose scams are well known in India. I think people of India now understands that the things they used to blame on the Indian parliament are actually blames to be given to the congress party as both BJP tenures has been on development. Also the fact that Modi is probably one of the greatest orators i have seen. He’s quite motivational .

[hemantsighxxxx]

The schemes of modi government have actually reached to the grassroot level... And this is one of the major factor he won.
