Narendra Modi has won!!




There has been lots of action in Indian Political scene these days. In Gujrat, Narendra Modi sweept the polls by winning 117 of 182 seats. His emphatic win was a huge blow to Congress and many political pundits who predicted his downfall.

This win is an eye opener for everyone. For Media, Politicians and Indians in general.If you have noticed, right from the beginning media, in general, was against Modi. In every talk shows,news reports, editorials etc he was branded as Communal, Extremist, Dictator, Fundamentalist etc etc. Hardly any one mentioned decrease in crime and the development work he had done during his five year tenure as CM of state of Gujrat.It seems Modi was confidant of his win and development work that he had executed. He rarely refuted or counter attacked media and opposition for mud slinging.

After the results were out,media still continued its diatribe against Modi. They told that Modi has won the elections only on anti-Muslim or pro-Hindutva wave. Though there is no denying that Modi being pro Hindu, has helped him but also you cant deny that he has brought Gujrat on development track with fast pace.


He is an astute,no-nonsense administrator who believes in taking development to the people at the bottom of society.In Saurashtra,strong hold of Patel's whose leaders vociferously opposed Modi, BJP won majority of seats. Many Patel farmers of the region voted for Modi even though many Patel leaders told not to do so.During tenure of Narendra Modi he sent water of Narmada to Saurashtra region.This water was a boon for many farmers. This water did wonders. After two years farmers of this entire region can actually experience development.Therefore it was not a tough job for Modi to tell them that he actually developed that region.

One thing is for sure.Modi has frustrated media as never before.
