This is the truth of Gujarat. This is the ugly truth of the so called 'Developed Gujarat'. The images that have been built for ten years have been collapsed in ten days. This is the failure of Narendra Modi's Gujarat Model. This is the failure of Vikaas model of Gujarat.
To sustain any propaganda, you need to continuously keep doing it. The moment you stop, people would start learning the truth.
In fact, Hardik Patel recently said that they will expose well-propagated myth about Gujarat model. Two Gujaratis, both Hardik Patel and Lalit Modi would expose a lot of secrets and expose many failures of Gujarat model.
Whatever Narendra Modi built in Gujarat was just a cosmetic changes. The underlying base; the foundation is full of conflicts, chaos and confusion. Narendra Modi refused to pay attention to those basic problems and went on building skyscrapers on that shaky foundation. Naturally, it would collapse.
During this recent Gujarat patel protest, the internet services were suspended. Then what is the point in making big noise about Digital India and Mobile Governance.
When you engage in propaganda for your survival, then you need to keep doing it continuously. All political leaders do engage in propaganda during election; then they stop it completely.
But, Narendra Modi continuously engage in propaganda; in various form; in various medium. Continuous propaganda would become an addiction. If you don't tweet every hour, you may start feeling that you are losing your followers. So, to hold them, you need to tweet about something on hourly basis.
That is the challenge of this century. Nobody is loyal to any organization. No one feels that he is a follower of someone. Everybody feels that he or she has the leadership qualities. At work, around ten engineers may be reporting to a manager. That manager starts quoting from George Washington to Bhagwad Gita. Everyone has become preacher and nobody is there to listen.
If Gujarat model is a failure; then Narendra Modi's model of India also will be a failure.
The Prime Minister Narendra Modi just scratches the surface; never understands the chaos, conflicts and confusion of India. Modi refuses to understand them.
Modi assumes that once we build Digital India and other economic development then all these native problems would vanish in thin air.
It is like; a person is seriously ill. We need to take that person to an hospital; understand the cause and start the treatment. Once that person recovers completely, then we shall take that person to gym and beauty parlor.
In Narendra Modi's view; there is no need to treat that person in a hospital. Once we apply fair-and-lovely, then the entire world would like India.
Could someone in BJP or RSS help Narendra Modi to understand this basic concept. This is ignorance. With his loud mouth, Modi let the whole world know this.
Instead of talking about Narendra Modi, let us see other leaders of India. Let it be Rabindranath Tagore or Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi or Mohammad Ali Jinna. They did learn about the west. But they did understand the value of the east. In fact, they had a whole perception of the east and the west.
The current India is in a state of बीमारी . It is not Digital India; it is बीमारी India.
India needs a doctor to cure her disease; not an eloquent speaker.
