Mr. Mody

Mr. Mody is no longer a regional leader. It is widely assumed that he has the aspirations to be the Prime Minister of India. In some elite circles, it is expected of him, favorably, to take this next step.

This puts Mr. Mody in whole different arena. The media has projected Mr. Mody as a Hindu Nationalist, having limited influence with the largest minority in India- The Moslems. Mr. Mody has to not only overcome this perception but has to convince the citizens of India that they all are equal in his eyes and are entitled to the rights afforded to them by the constitution of the Republic of India.
 

It is understood that he wants to see patriotism rooted in the heart of every citizen of India. But, that should not lead him to judge, in his position as a leader of this vast nation, that one citizen is less Patriotic than the other. With his reputation, the unity of the country should become his utmost priority. By all counts, he needs an image make over.
 

Being an able administrator and a superb manager, he should be able to accomplish this with his crowd pleasing and convincing style.
 

It goes without saying, another name often mentioned for this position, does bot measure up to Mr. Mody in experience, charisma and above all leadership.
 

People need to look beyond dynasty. Check people like Mody thoroughly. Make sure
Their plan is not to build their statues all over the country. They have the genuine desire to serve the country from the bottom of their heart.
