The Congress is history now.They were fighting an election after having delivered double digit inflation, sub-5% growth and large scake unemployment against a leader who delivered double digit GDP growth for straight twelve years in his state and has a Putin-like public persona. On topbof it the biggers couldnt keep their hands out of the cookie jar. Almost every minister in the outgoing government is facing criminal charges of embezzling billions of $$ on the side while they were screwing the economy.They had chance in hell of winning. Modi won more seats in one state than the Congress won all India and polled more votes than the entire electorate of USA, UK and Germany combined. HAHAHAHA

Yeah I heard this election had the largest voter turnout EVER, and most of them voted Modi.

Too many complex questions in one tweet. BjP(And Modi) is Right Wing on economics, center-left on social policy.

Sikh-Hindu dynamics and political history are too long to go into here.Suffice to say Modi did well in Punjab too, though it was the only northern state he did not sweep.
The real culprits here are the Badals, father and son, who have not administered Punjab well (corruption and police excesses). They should take lessons from the fate of Mother/Son (Sonia/Rahul), and Father/son (Mulayam Singh/Akhilesh Singh). When the pitcher is full, Indian public throws away the old completely. That is why Amrinder Singh and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) succeeded in Punjab to certain extent.

Does this all mean the Gandhis are almost out the door, or at least almost powerless?

Yes, but what this all has to do with Hinduism, I'm not sure, other than the fact Modi is a Hindu. Seems to me we should start an Indian politics thread.

I don't see Modi being the type that will single out minorities to discriminate against. I don't think the Sikhs, Christians, Muslims, etc. need be worried. Of course, if protests grow violent, the government will step in, as it should.

Mr Modi ,who was involved in mass murder/pogrom of a minority community(Muslims ) is unpopular in Punjab especially among Sikhs .its unfortunate that such a man will lead the country .

Any proof???

And what about congress gov which was responsible for 90% riots since Independence?
The Hindu muslim riots was result of Godhra where 59 Hindus (25 women and 15 children) were burnt alive in Train. DUring riots Modi asked for help from all states but got no response, he made every effort to check the riots. During last 10 years congress tried every method to put him behind bars but they had no proofs.

If you take out the word, almost,
and make your question into a
declarative sentence, then you
have your answer. Also take out
the words, at and least, from the
latter portion of your question.​

Politics is like religion. Its perfectly fine to have a differing POV. Nobody knows for sure. Only time will tell. Here in Canuckistan I'm hoping for a massive change next time around too, but if not, then so be it.

Gandhis are in deep trouble, more than ever in the history of independent India. They have lost badly in National elections and in states where elections will be held later in 2014, i.e., Maharashtra and Haryana. In Maharashtra they got just 2 seats out of 48 (NCP, part of the ruling combine got 4), and 1 out of 10 in Haryana, in the national elections. BJP will certainly go for the kill. That would leave Gandhis without power in a major state ( at present it rules in Karnataka, Kerala, Himachal Pradesh, and Assam also; comparatively smaller states) as well as in the National parliament. That would make the funds channel go dry. That is the scenario unless BJP commits a blunder, which they are not likely to do. It was money which made Gandhis work. NCP has already shown its inclination to join BJP, but BJP is not interested. They are corrupt.

Yes, Modiji made a lot of efforts to prevent the riots. Around 200 police officers died while trying to control the violence. After lengthy investigation, supreme court of India mentioned Modiji as innocent and gave him clean chit.

The people of Gujarat suffered a lot from that riots but they knew that Modiji is innocent and had no involvement that is why in this election BJP won All the 26 seats from Gujarat. Even many muslims voted for Modiji.

Modiji proudly says that he is Hindu and believe in Sanatan Dharma and he also cares for all beings irrespective of their religion, caste etc.

Can this man go wrong? I do not think he can. He values his dharma.

I don't know much about Indian politics but everything I hear and read is bad things about the Gandhis and what they've done to India. I'll be happy for India as a whole if and when they are gone. India deserves better than them.

Weird I only read bad things about Modi, in American media of course. If it wasn't for you all and my friend from India I would think he was a tyrant who only wants to see Hinduism in India and hates all other religions. Which is just not true. I don't know why but America does not seem to like him.

I've read some negative things about him too. But all politicians are good or evil depending on whom you talk to.

My political awakening was only the last few years, largely thanks to influential Libertarians and conservatives.

But it is homed enough now to understand what typically drives voters in one direction or the other in a Republic such as the US or in a Democracy as in India. Taking these generalizations in mind, in context of this future of Modi's success AFTER this tremendous victory:

(1) "It's the economy, stupid"

This is a popular saying in America. And I believe it will be the number one factor in perception of Modi over the next 2 years. The voters in India will have an eye on the economy. In one way, it is unfair to judge Modi's results in this regard, because while it is true that government can destroy an economy through government action and misregulation, a single government cannot "save" an economy either when the issue is on a global level, and certainly one "executive" or PM can only give incentive for an economy to "save itself" but cannot be held responsible too far beyond that, and most importantly of all, a mere two years is too short to judge, yet Modi will be judged in terms of the Indian economy over the next two years.

It will not be fair, but it is the reality of politics, and of dirty politics as well as Modi will face many enemies inclusive of Congress, muslim extremists, communists, illegal aliens from Banglsdesh, and some "break away" elements of South India. But of all the leaders for India, Modi is the best "adult in the room" to do the best as humanly possible for the economy of India.

I pray the economy of India is strong over the next two years as the enemies of Modi mount their assault which is surely coming, beginning as early as two months from now. These same anti-Modi elements are going to also try and foment Islamic extremists to cause big trouble for which the pro-Congress left wing media will try and blame Modi.

Which brings up my second point.

(2) "It's what they don't report that is the real news"

The media in India, though biased against Modi in heart and mind, has been tolerably fair to Modi.

That is out pf pure fear of the Indian voters who clearly favor Modi.

But that is about to change.

Soon their bias will come into full play. Even if the economy is doing well, they will work on a daily basis to put a perception in the mind of the Indian voter that it is misery. They will over exaggerate and focus daily on the "plight of the poor", and the "price of petrol and potatoes".

Every riot or communal stress, often purposely fomented by Congress and Islamic extremists, will be front of page and blamed on Modi.

But the greatest trick will be the oldest trick of all, so predictable by a phony media.

And that is what they will not report. Anything good from the Modi government, anything positive, will simply not be reported on at all. Nothing. It will be news, the true news, but it won't exist. The crime uf omission.

The only way to counter this is, Indians in the private sector, who love the truth and India, need to form a new "third-way" and balanced news cable and internet active news agency. In part this has already begun. Not to be the propagandists of Modi, but not to be the phony news as well.

Modi is, and will be, one of India's greatest of all. I hope there will be someone reporting on this.

Same in French media, where he is depicted as some kind of dangerous religious extremist that want to make India a autocracy.

A shame. A real, real shame, that they spread so much misinformation instead of really doing their jobs and educate themselves on how politics works in India. :facepalm:

The icing on the cake was in a french news website, when it was like "Look, at his Gujarat campain he had a picture of a Hindu god ! (Râma) What a dangerous religious extremist !" :facepalm:

We need a real Hindu news website.
