The nation is in the cusp of a crucial change. The great churnings in the country post 2002 has thrown up an unprecedented leader in the persona of Narendra Modi aka NaMo — a leader who, as the Prime Ministerial Candidate of the Bhartiya Janata Party is promising to rid the country of a decadent system it has long been pitted against.
The middle class, especially youths, seem reposing faith in him at a time when the credibility of the political class is at its lowest ebb. If we cast even a cursory glance over NaMo’s evolution, it would seem that he is pre-ordained for the country.
Dhananjay Kumar, veteran journalist, in his book The Narendra Modi Phenomenon outlines fund of his real strength in fascinating phraseology and semantics. Obscured by unfounded and false vilification campaign, the story of NaMo is one of ingenuity, resilience and perseverance. Post clean chit given to him by court on 2002 Gujarat riots, the writer pleads it is time to welcome the star in the constellation of great global politicians.
With his sterling performance in Gujarat as the Chief Minister, making good governance and development the agenda of politics, he attains a very exalted position in the eyes of hoi polloi (the majority). The book delineates why and how. The book is also about Narendra Modi soldiering through toxic, bruising and draining shenanigans of so called secularists.
‘Piping Hot NaMo Brew’, ‘Tea and Integrity’, ‘Dauntless Ever’, ‘Icon of Icons’, ‘Modi the God man’, ‘Good Governance: the NaMo Effect’, ‘Reinstating Growth @Hindu’, ‘NaMo the Offbeat’, ‘Sickularists’ Shenanigans’, ‘NaMo Clean Congress Cheat’, ‘An Apology to NaMo’, ‘NaMo Visa Power’, ‘NaMo the Zeitgeist’, ‘Timely Wave’, ‘Emblem of Supreme India’, ‘Yes NaMo Can’, ‘NaMo North in South’- The chapters are riveting and provides a fascinating glimpse into the man being globally toasted.
In the run up to the 2014 general elections, Narendra Modi has undeniably etched himself upon country’s collective psyche as a fait accompli. Straddling across the political scene, Narendra Modi is unarguably the zeitgeist. In the acronym ‘NAMO’, he has veritably assumed the handiness and breeze of a mantra.
Dhananjay Kumar avers Modi has become the staple of Indian Mind. It has started looking as if he is incarnation of a brand new belief system for good governance and development. The author has profoundly weighed the options and has absolutely no doubt that NaMo is the unprecedented option for this country.
The book in essence is a tribute to the leader of substance. The author has unshackled NaMo from the maze of conspiracies that tried to asphyxiate this emblem of good governance and made him pithy and precise. The book is purely a showcasing of his brilliance. The author prunes and polishes the fascinating Modi lore. As you go through meticulous weaving and get up, close and personal, you come across a different leader with milk of human sympathies jutting out of his tough exterior.
