13th September,2013 this day fully has the potential of becoming a point from where Indian politics seems to be taking a new turn. A multiparty democracy INDIA,with two mainstream parties:the Congress and the BJP and many other parties forming a coalition government , a country where parties;their ideologies,their vision,communalism,their grassroots reach has been the basis of fighting elections for over the years ,its the time when the main opposition party is all set to make it a war of individuals ,the BJP express is all ready to leave its 10 year old halt in the yard just because it thinks it has attached the right engine at the right time : NARENDRA MODI ,rightly so he’s a horse with lot of power.
Born on 17th September,1950 in Mehsana district and belonging to a lower middle class family ,he was a tea vendor and used to carry the kettle of tea made by his father to the passengers at vadnagar railway station.An average student, a true Hindu nationalist from his childhood days , always had the dream of joining the RSS from his childhood. Joined the RSS became a “pracharak” ,making tea and breakfast ,sweeping the office etc was his daily routine at the RSS office : which means attachment to the grassroots and well aware with poverty. Modi showed his Oratory skills right from school , he met volunteers of BJP in various parts of Gujarat and took everyone along to win polls in 2001 and since then not looking back and winning 3 consecutive elections : election after being elected for the first time and continuing for 12 years shows which means he has the ability of taking people along,making followers and influencing and motivating people by his oratory skills which is desperately needed at this stage at the highest level. A country can progress only by two means either its people get enlightment and get at a higher level or its political class get down to the people of the country and use them to bring out their potential .NaMo has that quality of getting near the people and influencing them.Also it is his achievement in delivering on expectations of the masses and winning their trust and elections on just one issue i.e Development : again what India desperately needs at the moment that active politics be free of caste ,religion and region based vote bank ,country breaking politics (though accused of being a true Hindu nationalist , he will have to behave secularly when at the highest level and representing 125 crore population and we have to understand that a person learns from his mistakes after having experienced the effects of the mistakes he might have done in his past i.e the godhra riots,he seems to be far more mateur individual now ).Also in his childhood he had left his house and went to the Himalayas to attain self enlightment ; which shows his Mental and Spiritual Stability important in guiding a nation like India,
Thus this blend of his past is enough to show his abilities to handle the most important office in the country.Also the way he has connected with the youth of India is remarkable and the use of social networking websites is appreciative and exiting.Moreover the typical entrepreneural skills which he has shocased promoting Private Public Partnership,arranging vibrant Gujrat summits and acquiring the trust of business community and providing safe grounds for their expansion is highly advantageous if it can b expanded on a larger scale.i.e India.Thus all in all NaMo seems to be the best option that India has at the moment with his abilities being exactly in par with the requirements of India at the moment.
So now its important for the BJP after they having put their Trumpcard on a battleground to plan,stratagize, perform a SWOT analysis and work accordingly,take advantage of the anti congress atmosphere in the country at the moment to their benefit and to the nations benefit .Its important to put an end to the family dynasty and high command system in India and a person to come from grassroot to the highest office rather a particular family.It is important to revive the country from ventilator that it is in at the moment ,to impart value education to Indians ,nationalism and the spirit of patriotism and project INDIA as a developed nation in world politics ,a nation that is self-sufficient in every aspect. Hopefully the BJP express with the NAMO technology engine, halts at New Delhi station and takes INDIA to a destination where it deserves to be.
