It
was a spectacular treat to the eyes – the overflowing crowd of cheering Indian
expatriates who poured into the Dubai Cricket Stadium to hear Prime Minister Sri.
Narendra Modi, stands testimony to NaMo’s popularity among the People of Indian
Origin, all over the world. That the Ruler of United Arab Emirates skipping protocol, accompanied by his brothers’ went to the
airport to receive Sri.Narendra Modi goes to indicate his charisma and reach. His
visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque at Abu Dhabi has been received well by
all, ( including those who are skeptical about his secular credentials ). The
decision of the Emirates Government to donate land for the construction of a
Hindu Temple, towards respecting the religions feelings of the huge expatriate
community, is another sweet diplomatic success.
Previously
the Madison Square Garden in the United States, saw a sea of humanity congregating to listen
to the electrifying speech of the oratorical Prime Minister, which sent current
waves not only among those present, but also for scores of others who viewed
and heard him through television.
NaMo’s
speeches are indeed
mesmerizing. He has mastered
the skill of carrying the audience with him - whatever their strata
and wherever the venue be. The
crowd goes gaga on seeing him, and applauds every phrase and sentence spelt out by him. This overwhelming
reception was never accorded to any
other Indian Prime Minister on foreign soil, for some decades now. Sri. Narendra Modi is
undoubtedly the most
popular Prime Minister ( after Pandit Nehru ) among the
People of Indian Origin, and has emerged
as a highly respectable
figure in the eyes of
other Governmental Heads, spread
across all continents.
Back
home, lampooning cartoons and criticisms are doing the rounds criticizing
NaMo’s constant foreign visits. The bottom line is that he is globe trotting with the sole purpose of bringing business investments into India, and
which on materializing would usher a bountiful
economic reward for India, India
Inc., and its
subjects.
A
sulking opposition unleashes verbal cannonade on Sri. Modi on various issues, encompassing governance and non
governance issues. The hue and cry raised on the Vyapam scam did not seem to
have had any effect on the electorate of Madhya Pradesh where the ruling
Bharatiya Janata Party, headed by its Chief Minister Sri.Shivraj Singh Chauhan,
has swept the recently
concluded local body polls, decimating the Congress.
Now
the litmus test for Sri.Narendra Modi lies
in the state
of Bihar, where elections are due shortly. Whether Bihar will
get seduced
by his “ awaas “ and charm is to be seen. If it happens then
the devastation caused by the NaMo Tsunami would leave the opposition battered.
Let
the people of Bihar decide and choose their “ netas “ purely on merit.
Jai
Hind.
