Narendra Modi has stepped into the chair vacated by that silly man Man Mohan Singh. He is the Prime Minister of India and despite all his faults, one can grudgingly concede that he is the best thing to have happened to India since 1947. History says that the hour finds the man and there is a possibility that after a string of insipid prime minister's India have a man who can lead from the front.
Modi is not only a mass media man, but he is a man who has made the heads of the world leaders turn towards India. It started with Obama who as a first attended the Republic day parade at Delhi and then followed his visits to Australia and Canada and he was lionized as a great man who has brought about change. Time magazine has put him on its cover and the cation says " why Modi matters".
Modi's recent visit to China is another interesting example of his leadership from the front. He has not hesitated to put his cards on the table and call a spade a spade and despite this got $ 22 billion in joint investments in India from Chinese business.
Modi is going great guns, but he appears a one man army as all his other leaders are all lack luster men. Look at Rajnath Singh, or Modi of Bihar,The Gujarat CM, and one can hardly see a man who can sway the masses. In this Modi is a crowd puller and a leader. There are men like Nitesh Kumar sulking and jealous of all this, but I am afraid they can only bark and not bite and I am sure they may well be consigned to the dustbin of history.
Modi however has to build on his gains. He cannot rest as the journey ahead is heard and he is a one man show. Modi leads and India looks safe, for once we have a leader who is one of the masses and not an elitist yes man. Come to think of it, what a shame Man Mohan was Prime Minister of India .He was good at "ba ba blacksheep, three bags full...." Modi is above that. Lets hope he builds and does not flounder like Nehru who died a broken men, scorned by the world.
