Narendra Modi's 2002 cannot be washed away so soon: Political analysts and critics
NEW DELHI: He may have prime ministerial ambitions but Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's 2002 riots ghost will not leave him soon, say political analysts and critics.
On Sunday, the second day of his three-day hunger strike aimed at cementing communal relations in the state, criticism of Modi's past record continued, both in and outside the state.
B.R.P. Bhaskar, a Kerala-based political analyst, thinks Modi's fast has come too late and creates suspicion.
"He will have to prove the genuineness of his new proclamations as he has already destroyed the social fabric of the state," Bhaskar told IANS over telephone.

ReplyDeleteAs the history cannot be rewritten, it would be wise to forgive and forget certain things in the larger interest of the State. If he realises his failures and is willing to work towards bringing back communal harmony in our country, he can definitely do it. His track record in the developmental works of the states certifies that.
