India Faces a choice
between tolerance and governance - by Gurcharan Das on Financial

The following is the letter to the Editor of Financial Times.
The author seems to
the have a strong leftist (can also be read communist) background
carrying a huge 'secular' luggage (an aversion for the word Hindu).
The author also tries to generalise his personal preference over an
inexperienced and incompetent Rahul Gandhi, as if its a public
opinion.
I come from the
southern state of Tamil Nadu. BJP hardly wins any parliamentary seats
in that state. Even for someone like me Modi is an obvious choice.
What India needs today is an able administrator like Modi and not a
inexperienced joker like Rahul.
I am even surpised how
even people are even able to compare Modi with Rahul as if there is a
comparison. Its like comparing the light from bright afternoon Sun
with a light from hand held Torch .
The author seems to
completely disconnected from the public opinion (or) desperately
trying to falsify it. The author seems to be having a obsession
with the secularism. Congress has consistently damaged India by
appeasing minorities in the name of Secularism. 'India is
secular only because its a Hindu Nation'. Not because congress is
ruling it. If the author 'properly' reads the history of India,
he will realize that the parts of India where Hindus become minority,
have got separatist tendencies or even got separated from the
nation.
People like us (a large
number of them-sufficient enough to elect Modi as prime misiter) do not
carry the same 'secular' luggage like the author and are very
comfortable and even looking forward to a effective leader like Modi
governing India.
