Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Terrific speech. The way NaMo builds tempo in speech is just unbelievable.
He is amazing orator. When you feel after 10-15 minutes that this is going to be usual Vikas, UPA bashing speech, he just raises the mantle and changes entire speech !
I loved Shahjada. This is more apt than Yuvraj, which has at least some respect in it. I am sure he is going to use this Sahjada word now for next 6 months, and we at BRF will too !
Loved comparisons like:
Dream Team v/s Dirty Team
Democracy v/s Shahjada
Loved punch lines like Sharabi Congress, PM kee Pagadi, Sardar but not Asaradar, Gandhi (note) Bhakti,
Loved digital lotus image in background !
I don't think we have seen any such leader since 1947 as NaMo. We are fortunate to have him in our times. Let's try our best to make him PM, otherwise we will be most unfortunate too !
NaMo NaMhah !!

He has hinted a long inning of 8 to 9 years when celebration of AmrutMahotsva of india would be celebrated. India needs Dream team and not Dirty Team. KhanGraze ke Bure din aa rahe hain.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
High time someone makes a compilation video - with all the best nuggets and punch lines by Namo and set it to some background music if one prefers.
Lot of messages from other speeches still lying unreached to the masses.
Not a simple job actually ... The words loose their power when transplanted form their original flow. It must be only in the hands of a skilled video editor to still achieve the desired effect. Professional help is thus necessary.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
And Barkha Dutt changing her story is not helping. At 5.00 AM in the US, she is up and tweeting contradicting stories.
She said no such words were used.
And then she says some allegorical story was told about village women.
And then she says Pak media is distorting.
No one is prepared to believe her now.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Hamid Mir of GeoTV from Pakistan came on TimesNow and confirmed that Story when it was also mentioned bt Navika Kumaar during discussion. They weren't prepared for it. I was , also , caught by surprise.
And he used that episode to talk about Ordinance Nonsense which meant that papu insulted PM while he was on Foreign tour.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
It is more and more looking like "jung for azadi" rather than a routine election of a nation. Surely crowds are ignited and want true freedom which is what Namo is promising. He is surely making India first his core strategy and making the Indian election more and more like US style and Mexico style presidential campaign of recent times.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
i chose to watch Modi speech at Kamla nagar market screen. around 200 -250 people standing and watching screen like final deciding last over of India Pak cricket. this interest for the whole duration of speech. no one moved. sometimes claps from few people specially when he talked of Pak Sharif. these were majority shop workers, cycle rikshaw pullers and few middle class family with ladies.
even police guys were watching and smiling in appreciation. the whole traffic just came to standstill.
all this when it was raining.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
The fetish is some thing called "NATIONALISM and GOVERNANCE" which are the two USP of NAMO. US is the gold standard when it comes to both these two. If u visit even a chai shop, it has the US national flag flying high in front of its entrance. If u, aamm admi, meet an emergency, the country will send in chopper if required to make sure u get the right medical aid. So I truely hope that under NAMO we reach that level in India. Hence the comparison. On a side note, NAMO's idol, Swami Vivekanda, is known for his immortal speech in CHICAGO. So there is a strong connection where NAMO wants to take us with US. May God Bless India.Sagar G wrote:What's up with your fetish of comparing anything with what Modi does to joo ess ???subhamoy.das wrote:It is more and more looking like "jung for azadi" rather than a routine election of a nation.

Pakistani prime minister has no right or a moral authority to insult the Prime Minister of India, said Modi who even questioned Indian journalists who did not react by staging a boycott.
Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Yeah yeah sub-prime crisis, occupy wall street, us defence forces taking selfies with "I didn't join army/navy/airforce to fight for al-qaeda in Syria" placard also tells us how much of a gold standard of NATIONALISM and GOVERNANCE US is. You belong to those group of "Indians" who watch US with a starry eye completely devoid of any ability of rational analysis. You go even far using Swami Vivekanand to defend your dumb conclusions that Modi is somehow looking for acceptance from US or wants to follow there footsteps. FYKI Modi has refused to apply for visa to the same country to which you look with your starry eyes. Please save your speeches about nationalism, governance for some other thread we have enough of that material from Modi himself to ponder over.subhamoy.das wrote:The fetish is some thing called "NATIONALISM and GOVERNANCE" which are the two USP of NAMO.

If you have anything else to say other than being a cheergirl of US then please do cause your unnecessary comparisons of Modi with Obama and trying to do an == of the impending Indian election with that of US is not only OT but also irritating.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Feedback forms too, eh? That's a new one. Am sure, volunteers would be scouring the crowd to get their contact details, voter registration status, pinging interest for volunteer work and the like. Dilli has its share of dedicated RSS shakhas and pracharaks but the reach and accessibility that the aam aadmi citizen volunteer brings is something else altogether.>>Abhijit Majumder @abhijitmajumder 3m
Modi rallies have stuff one rarely finds at political rallies: Thousands of collegians/fresh graduates. Hi-def screens. And feedback forms!
Meanwhile, after loudly proclaiming that NM is not a factor in their backyard, the Dilli cong is back top its dirty tricks...
Congress launches anti-Modi pamphlet campaign to puncture Vikas rally
Alarmed by massive crowd that Narendra Modi is attracting, Congress silently launched its anti-Modi campaign by circulating lakhs of Feku posters via newspapers on Sunday morning.
Instead of focusing on hoardings and TV adds, Congress decided to reach out to the morning reader before he could switch on the TV set to listen to Narendra Modi's first rally in Delhi. The campaign designed by the core war room team has focused on developmental record of Gujarat and compared it with Delhi.
A direct comparison has been made between Delhi and cities of Gujarat like Surat. Basic civic issues have been compared. For example Delhi's CNG initiative has been described as exemplary and has been compared with polluted streets of Surat. Delhi has been described as a city for common people but Gujarat has been described only as a pro-industrialist state. Sources say that the campaign is to challenge Modi's claims before he makes tall claims about Gujarat in his speech.
Narendra Modi in one of the posters has been showcased as a cat. Sources in the Congress say that Delhi specific themes have been selected to showcase Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit's work. But the irony is not lost on anyone.
This is a political first that such a massive campaign has been organised specifically targeting Narendra Modi when the party has been openly exhorting that they aren't unnerved by Modi's antics.
Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
I had to watch the speech not live due to cold and fever.
Every time I have to listen Modi, I am afraid if he will fall short of the last speech he made like not meeting his own standards. It is like India-Pak match in WC when Pakis scored 300+ and we are chasing a target. But Namo always beats his own standards.
I saw some of forum members criticizing Namo not referring to RSS workers who were killed in TN. He has a mission to restore Democracy, Governance and real Secularism in addition to Growth. He is targeting youth to expand his nation building project not just 2014 but beyond that. He is reaching out to educated, semi-educated and uneducated to instill patriotism. He won't be touching every topic because there is a huge vested interest media out to poke holes in every word he says and lie thru their teeth to destroy and degrade India. They will not hesitate to partner with LeT or IM or Taliban or Al Queada or any country that wants to destroy India.
It was one of the best speeches. This is what DIEnasty was afraid of. Namo being named PM and the Lion roars. It seems one of the goals given for Modi's BJP opposition was to stall his coronation till December when CBI can cook up the case against Amit Shah and Modi and arrest them. Now that their plans went awry, they are wondering if they still should go ahead with the plan or not.

Delhi rally: For Muslim youth, Modi brings the promise of jobs
Says Nemat Ali, a BA first year student from Delhi University, “The youth wants to see a strong leader and we want to give Modi a chance. But he should take all religions together. We don’t want to be treated as outsiders in our own country. We want to hear from Modi what went wrong in 2002 and we want him to say that there will not be a repeat of 2002.” Ali shows off his placard that reads “Welcome Modi, Lion’s Roar, to the maha-rally in Delhi.” He says he managed to sneak it in despite lathis from the police.
Corruption and price rise come up repeatedly when asked about reasons for disenchantment with the Congress Party. Says Mohammad Ezaz, a vegetable vendor and resident of Wazirpur JJ (slum) colony, “The Congress has looted us. We don’t have jobs. Modi is known as the Vikas purush. We would like to see how he fares as a leader. We want to see what he can achieve.” His appeal to Modi, said Ezaz, was to improve their standard of living, to give them jobs and employment. Clasping a Modi mask in his hand, he says, “Why doesn’t the Congress government do anything to provide us a clean sewage system. Our children our falling ill. Malaria, Dengue are spreading. We don’t have health facilities. The Congress has no time for the poor.

The gold standard?? The U.S? Just the examples you gave lost the plot. Flying flags outside of a "chai shop" is not nationalism. Its one of the symptoms of an insular society though not the defining one. And as for "EMS", surely the U.S is a poor example even compared to some of the nordic countries.
When we use the words "Gold standard" and such, i do believe a little prudence is advised.
And if thats our dream for NaMo..thatevery household just has to fly the indian flag and we have enough air ambulances as first responders...then i am truly sorry.
I believe that NaMo is here to provide what Bharat truly needs. A Bharatiya identity, the ability for all sections of society to lead a fulfilling life with mutual respect and a country that awards merit and last but not the least start India's return to its true destiny: the embodiment of Sanatana Dharma.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
CBI did not probe fodder allegations against Bihar CM
The agency has been sitting on the allegation made by the main accused in the case that Nitish Kumar took Rs 1 cr for election expenditure.
I wonder if CBI route was used by ITALIAN MAFIA to blackmail Nitish and break his alliance with BJPIn a "confession" made to the CBI in May 1996, the late Shyam Bihari Sinha alleged that in 1994, Nitish Kumar, who was with the Samata Party at the time, took Rs 1 crore as election expenditure and Shivanand Tiwari Rs 30-35 lakh from the people involved in the scam. But the CBI never probed these charges. On 20 September 2013, the Jharkhand High Court asked the CBI to file a "counter affidavit" by 22 November explaining why the agency never named Kumar and Tiwari as accused in the fodder case. A copy of the "confession" is with The Sunday Guardian.
When contacted, JDU spokesperson K.C. Tyagi said he was not aware of the matter and that he would get back after getting the details of the case. However, JDU national general secretary Arun Kumar Srivastava said, "They (scamsters) gave money to many people. But the issue is whether those who took money did any work or not in lieu of the payment. In any case, we would not like to comment on it as judiciary is doing its job. Law should take its own course."

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
After seeing Delhi's local leaders speech, I have to say there is NO BJP leader in Delhi. The best was Sidhu who is good only for entertainment. And worst was Vijay Goel. He seems to have no idea what and where he is talking. His content of speech was surprisingly similar to AAP!! Reduce the cost of bijli by 30% and bla bla. I don't think anyone cares for hiked rates of power as long as they get uninterrupted power. If he wants to project himself as CM he must show some vision. One can forgive his inability of delivering excillent speeches, but the content must be thick. He is definately not a CM material, so are the rest of them. NM made big promises of power, security, jobs for Delhites but if he wants his words to realize, he will have to find a better CM. If SS and AJ are bargaining too hard in center, make one of them CM. They are definately better than Vijay Go-Hell.
Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
SS would be a good candidate imo. wean her away from D4 politics and get her a real demanding job where she both has clout and the responsibility to deliver.

Modi blows Ananta Vijaya
http://www.niticentral.com/2013/09/29/m ... 39350.html
http://www.niticentral.com/2013/09/29/m ... 39350.html
Narendra Modi today blew the Ananta Vijaya, conch shell of Prince Yudhisthira, to announce his march on Delhi as future ruler, though he promised, with Caesar-like modesty, that he would not be king (main nath nahin hoon, das hoon). Castigating the Prime Minister for weakness in projecting India’s power and dignity abroad, the Congress’ anointed heir for upstart behaviour vis-á-vis the Head of Government, and Indian journalists for pusillanimity before the Pakistan Prime Minister whilst part of the Prime Ministerial delegation to New York, the Gujarat Chief Minister made it clear that nationalism would be non-negotiable under his reign.
At a mammoth, five plus lakh strong, rally organised by the Delhi unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party to launch the party’s campaign for the Assembly election in November, Modi mostly skirted Delhi-centric issues and reserved his fire for the Gandhi family and the political culture it represents. He displayed canny constitutional propriety by supporting the beleaguered Prime Minister against attacks on his person and office, while berating him for weakness.
The Prime Minister recently met the US President in Washington, but instead of showcasing India as a youthful nation and ancient civilisation, he told Barack Obama that India is a poor country. He sounded like film-makers who market India’s poverty abroad and collect awards. Was the Prime Minister talking about poverty which Rahul Gandhi called a “state of mind” or the real poverty of our back lanes, Modi asked.
Claiming the nation fears the outcome of Manmohan Singh’s meeting with the Pakistan Prime Minister, Modi said he was hurt when Nawaz Sharif called Indian and Pakistani journalists for breakfast and called the Indian Prime Minister a “dehati aurat” (village woman) for complaining about terrorism from Pakistani soil (which on September 26 took 12 Indian lives in two incidents at Kathua and Samba in Jammu & Kashmir). India, he thundered, will not tolerate this insult to the nation and the Prime Minister, “whatever our internal differences may be”. Nawaz Sharif could have the temerity to speak like this about Manmohan Singh, who is senior to him even in age, because the Congress vice-president has, in village parlance, “Pradhan Mantri ki pagdi uchaal di hai” (insulted him) and that is a sin (paap).
Modi challenged Indian mediapersons present to explain why they did not walk out when the Prime Minister was thus insulted. A possible reason could be that the Indian media, which the Vajpayee Government hosted at Agra, snuggled up to then President Parvez Musharraf when he made equally outrageous comments about Jammu & Kashmir. Modi has signalled an end to tolerance of such malfeasance by the media.
The BJP’s prime ministerial hopeful said the Indian people sincerely hope Manmohan Singh will show Nawaz Sharif his place and ask when Pakistan-occupied Kashmir will be returned to India, talk about terrorism and the constant killing of our jawans, and particularly try to bring back the severed head of our jawan whose mother and widow are still weeping.
The great dilemma before the nation today is between parivar shahi and lok shahi; the battle is to decide if India will run according to the Constitution (samvidhan) or the whim of the shehzade (Rahul Gandhi). Can the UPA allies answer this question – whom would they like to work under? Modi reminded his audience that when the Supreme Court decision on debarring convicted leaders came, the BJP supported it and made its stand clear at the all party meeting and in the meeting with the President. Disapproving of the manner in which Rahul Gandhi junked his own party-led Government’s Ordinance to save convicted legislators, the Gujarat strongman said that in both the Delhi and the 2014 general elections, it was time to get rid of the Dirty Team and bring in the Dream Team.
If one were to search for the signature theme of Narendra Modi’s Operation Red Fort, it would be “mujhe vishwas hai” (I have confidence), a far cry from the inane mumblings of a leader who thought India was nothing and had to be made something — “humme Bharat ko banana hai” (we have to make India this or that). In less than a decade, he pointed out, India will celebrate 75 years of freedom (Amrut Mahotsav) and we must decide what heights we want to scale by then. The UPA, he charged, has no vision at all, and every successive Budget has hovered around sensex up or down, income tax up or down, import relief, with no grand picture.
Armed as always with statistics to prove his points, Modi said the UPA brags only about achievements made by State Governments, but its own performance is dismal. The Railways in 1980 had 61,000 km tracks and 31 years later only 3,000 km of lines have been added, whereas China in the same period added 11,000 km of railway tracks from a baseline 50,000 km and their speed and quality equals Japan.
The UPA in an affidavit before the Supreme Court admitted that the NDA in six years added 24,000 km of roads to the national highways but UPA in nine years has added only 16000 km. The Aviation sector in the past seven years has seen unprecedented corruption, losses of Rs 53,000 crore and a debt of Rs 1 lakh crore; but it gave a package of Rs 30,000 crore to the private airlines. Delhi is starved for power and stations that can generate 20,000 MW are ready but non-functional because the regime has failed to allot gas and coal and set up transmission lines, because without money no file is signed.
Striking a personal note, Narendra Modi said it is India’s greatness that a boy who used to sell tea in train cabins to make ends meet has today been elevated by the people to this stage. As the crowds went hysterical, he said, “I never dreamt to be a ruler, I am a sevak”. He exhorted them to “see my past and see my work” and “trust my promise that neither Narendra Modi nor the BJP will ever destroy your trust, let you down; we will live for your dreams, that is our mission”.
He lambasted the dysfunctional regimes in Delhi where the Chief Minister accepts no responsibility for anything that goes wrong, including the safety of young girls, and New Delhi which is paralysed between the Government and the Mother-Son rule. The UPA is drowning in corruption, but remains addicted to “Gandhi-chaap”, the high denomination notes which are being collected in the tonnes. The nation, he concluded, is yearning for Su-raaj, good governance.

Great speech by Modi, an entertaining speech by Sidhu and the rest (especially the likes of Goel) were very average and were just blowing a lot of hot air.

Sushma Swaraj is itching for a leadership role after the elections. She may not be a bad candidate for Delhi CM.kapilrdave wrote:After seeing Delhi's local leaders speech, I have to say there is NO BJP leader in Delhi. The best was Sidhu who is good only for entertainment. And worst was Vijay Goel. He seems to have no idea what and where he is talking. His content of speech was surprisingly similar to AAP!! Reduce the cost of bijli by 30% and bla bla. I don't think anyone cares for hiked rates of power as long as they get uninterrupted power. If he wants to project himself as CM he must show some vision. One can forgive his inability of delivering excillent speeches, but the content must be thick. He is definately not a CM material, so are the rest of them. NM made big promises of power, security, jobs for Delhites but if he wants his words to realize, he will have to find a better CM. If SS and AJ are bargaining too hard in center, make one of them CM. They are definately better than Vijay Go-Hell.

Me think it is Diggy raja's sweet revenge on mom for insulting him in mp.subhamoy.das wrote:Watch the silence of the senior woods in Kongress. This is something that does not look like scripted and looks like there are indeed to camps in there. I was also the opinion as scripted before but feels like there is a genuine fight between mom and son! Anyway, either way NAMO is to benefit
