Modinama: Articles on Post Godhra Gujarat

Not 2002, 2001 Shapes My View on Modi
I was an intern back then. Having done my diploma in journalism and mass communication, i was working with a senior journalist to learn the tricks of on-ground reporting and developing contacts.My mentor was a veteran journalist, aged about 52 years. Everyone used to call him Haji sahab. He had gone on Haj ...
On Modi: Do Our Intellectuals Suffer From a Wilful Suspension of Disbelief?
We acclaim our intellectuals as ‘eminent’, ‘liberal’ and ‘progressive’. It is time to wonder what these words actually mean – especially the word ‘intellectual’in the context of political India. Minds of poor citizens who believed a stone Ganesh idol drank milk...
Twisted Truths From Godhra 2002 Carry on Till Today
Everyone remembers the moment when they came to know about the burning of people in a train at Godhra station. Rather like, ‘Where were you when the planes flew into the World Trade Center building on 9/11?’, or, “What were you doing the day Kennedy was assassinated". Some of us older pers...
 
My Tweet to Narendra Modi

All hell broke loose when Modi announced that the Gujarat government was going to honour the memory of Sardar Patel by building the tallest statue in the world, to be named “Statue of Unity” – wrought with melted iron from the used agricultural implements of farmers collected from each and...
Rahul Gandhi Ko Gussa Kyon Aata Hai?
The National Mood Vis a Vis Two Prime Ministerial Candidates
  Following Rahul Gandhi’s cry baby speech at an election rally on October 23 in a lighter moment I posted a tweet inviting Tweeple to enter a contest to provide answer to the burning question of the day: "Rahul Gandhi Ko Gussa Kyon Aata Hai?"  As expected I got two kinds ...
 
Response to Modinama
Personal Experience of Interaction with Modi
I’m a 72 year old South Indian Brahmin lady – not belonging to Narendra Modi’s caste, I must mention in these days of caste-ridden mindsets – just survived the attack of the Emperor of Maladies, cancer that I have been suffering from for the past two years.  I have no expectatio...
