'IITians support MODI', IIT-Delhi Narendra Modi fans campaign NAMO 4 PM.

MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES

IIT-Delhi Narendra Modi fans launch unofficial campaign. 

Heena Kausar | Mail Today | New Delhi, February 27, 2014::  BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi has found an ardent support-base in the corridors of the hub of India's techie geniuses, IIT Delhi.

A group of around 200 students of the premier institute have come together to campaign for the Gujarat Chief Minister as the general elections draw near.

"It was around six months ago that five fellow students and I discussed channelling the strong support wave for Modi prevalent in the institute.

That's when the idea to form a student group to campaign for Modi struck. We also formed a Facebook group for students like us," said a core group member requesting anonymity.

The group, which calls itself 'IITians support MODI', says while they support the man himself, it does not necessarily translate into support for his party, the BJP. The Facebook group boasts of 381 members, and includes IITians from Kharagpur as well.

Being IIT students, members feel, gives them an edge when they try to convince people to vote for Modi.

"We are independent of the BJP and have no alliance with them. We introduce ourselves as IIT students and not BJP supporters because then we will not be considered neutral," said Sahil Aggarwal, a final year Mechanical Engineering student, whose mobile ringtone is a song in Modi's praise.

The group holds weekly meetings to decide their plan of action. As of now the group is focusing on its campaign on social media, for which each member has to devote at least 3- 4 hours daily.

Chandy govt's new headache: Modi's meeting with Kerala bishops

Narendra Modi with Malankara Orthodox Church Bishops
J Binduraj | Indian Today | Kochi | February 10, 2014:: The meeting of two bishops of Malankara Orthodox Church with BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in Kochi on Sunday has become a new headache for the UDF government in Kerala.

The gesture of the church heads is a clear sign that a faction of Christians is disappointed with the Congress rule in the state.

Interestingly, Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy belongs to the Malankara Orthodox Church, which has a strong presence in eight parliamentary constituencies in the state.

He is the only member in the Kerala assembly belonging to the Orthodox Church faction.

Though the Orthodox Church has officially disassociated itself from the meeting of Chengannur Diocese Metropolitan Thomas Mar Athanasius and Ahmedabad Diocese Geevereghese Mar Julius with the Gujarat Chief Minister, the meeting is seen as a reflection of the growing discontent within the church faction about the Congress rule and the uncaring attitude of the government towards the problems faced by the church.

"The two bishops knew Narendra Modi well and it was just a friendly visit," said a church official.

But Bishop Mar Athanasius told mediapersons after meeting Modi that they would be happy to see Modi as the next prime minister.

"I have been in Gujarat for long and seen the developments Gujarat achieved under Modi. I don't find anything wrong in him becoming the prime minister," said Mar Athanasius.

Ahmedabad Diocese head Geevereghese Mar Julius also praised Modi.

"Modi was not indicted by any court of law for Gujarat riots. Human rights violations are happening in Kerala too. Those who rule Kerala didn't bring development as in Gujarat," he said.

Malankara Orthodox Church has got more than 14 lakh members in Kerala and has a strong presence in Lok Sabha constituencies such as Pathanamthitta, Kottayam, Idukki, Kollam, Ernakulam, Thrissur and Mavelikkara.

The church faction is unhappy that though it has a good number of people, only the Chief Minister represents the faction in Kerala assembly.

The church is also critical about Chandy's stand in disputes between the Orthodox Church and the Jacobite Church.

Chandy can't say anything in favour of Orthodox Church as the other Christian members of the cabinet are from other church factions.

"Unfortunately, we don't even have a district Congress committee president in Kerala," said an Orthodox Church official on conditions of anonymity.

Though Modi's team had invited other bishops from other Christian factions too, only two bishops met him at Ernakulam Guest house on Sunday afternoon. The meeting lasted for around 20 minutes.

Narendra Modi blames SP for law and order in UP

IANS | Meerut (Uttar Pradesh) | February 02, 2104::  In a scathing attack on the Samajwadi Party government in Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi Sunday blamed it for the deteriorating law and order situation in the state.

"Has anybody thought about the law and order situation of the state (UP)?" Modi asked at a rally here, adding that the SP should be called the "Samajvirodhi Party" instead of Samajwadi Party.

Asserting that the law and order situation in the state has deteriorated over the last decade, the BJP's prime ministerial candidate asked people whether they felt their women were safe under the current regime.

"Women are scared of venturing out of their homes..., I urge you to at least ensure the safety and security of women in the state," Modi said, addressing SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav.

Challenging the SP regime on the development plank, he said: "If you want to compete with Modi, improve the law and order situation, give electricity to the villages and improve the lot of farmers, and then compete."
"Compete on the issues of development," he said, adding that the SP will not do that as they don't want to address these issues.

Welcome NAMO, the PM in Awaiting. BJP will get 275 plus, may exceed 300: Modi Times

MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES 

How BJP and NDA will get the majority in next Lok Sabha by defeating Congress and UPA in the General Election, 2014 with a virtue of Modi Magic.

Modi Times Bureau | Kolkata | 25 January 2014:: The Modi wave may take a shape a Modi Cyclone for the coming Parliamentary Election. A confidential report of Central Intelligence Agency narrates that the Cyclone may prove it as a fatal consequences for Congress and UPA (United Progressive Alliance)  which may be arrested under 100.

While various poll surveys give unquestionable victory for BJP and NDA (National Democratic Alliance), some congress agents in different media houses suppress the shameful defeat of Congress and they are making a sense that BJP will not get the majority to run the next Govt. under the Prime Minister-ship of Narendra Bhai Modi. 

But, efforts of  the crooked media will be futile as the popular votes for Modi will earn a thumping majority in Lok Sabha (Lower House of Indian Parliament) in favour of BJP and NDA, without any confusion. The Modi Times Bureau has conducted a social media survey along with some field analysis and got expert opinion that Modi is coming as a Champion of the coming election war between NDA and UPA. Our experts have got no pulse in favour of AAP (Aam Admi Party) in this context and opined that the initial craze for AAP will be rapidly decreased before the real time as the party is loosing its popularity in its Delhi bastion. 
Table- A.
As per the estimate of Modi Times Bureau BJP and NDA will get 275 plus and may exceed the limit of 300.
Though some poll surveys hint that BJP will do extreme well in NJP run states like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chattishgarh, the Non BJP states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand will give unbelievable dividends for BJP's majority in Lok Sabha. In other reports it is also mentioned that BJP will get good numbers of MP (Member of Parliament) from Maharashtra, Assam and even from Kerala. 

In the table A, the party/alliance wise seat sharing is presented in a comparison with the estimation of another survey conducted by First Post. The related reports for poll surveys by different agencies/media are also  published here for getting the reality of the Victory of BJP in NDA and the defeat of Congress in UPA.

To ensure the victory of BJP and NDA, Narendra Modi is likely to attend more that 100 big rallies throughout the country to boost a new pulsation in favour.

Decisive Hindu votes will play a major role this time as a Hindu Vote bank for BJP to elect a Nationalist force in the centre for a stable Govt. for the next five years.

"The Congress run central government has been paralysed. They are doing only Akashwani": Narendra Modi in Ranchi Rally.

Rahul Gandhi only coming out with "akashwani" : Narendra Modi at Ranchi rally
PTI | Ranchi | Dec 29, 2013:: BJP's PM candidate Narendra Modi Sunday targeted Rahul Gandhi yet again, saying while nothing is being done to check price rise and corruption, the Congress leader has been only coming out with "akashwani" (celestial voices).

Modi's made these remarks at the rally apparently referring to Congress Vice-President's meeting with Chief Ministers of Congress-ruled states in Delhi on Friday during which he asked them to check prices and implement the Lokayukta Act on the lines of Lokpal and Lokayukta Bill.

Gandhi had disapproved of the Maharashtra government's decision to reject the Adarsh Commission's report on the society building scam.

"In ancient times, people heard akashwani (celestial voices) that came as if they (voices) were not concerned about the happenings around....Today, there is akashwani that CMs will do this, CMs will do that. People who are involved in corruption....if there is honesty in the words of people who do akashwani, then they should respond as to how corruption developed under Congress in Jharkhand," Modi said without naming Gandhi.

He said Congress leaders were doing the same today.

Attacking Congress, Modi said the ruling party at the Centre has become a "liability" and a "crisis" for the country as it has lost connection with the masses.

"Congress party, its governments and its leaders cannot listen to the voices of the people....People today want development, not division, they want opportunity, not political opportunism, they want security, not poison of communalism," he said.

Attacking Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on the issue of inflation, the Gujarat Chief Minister said despite holding a meeting of Chief Ministers on price rise three years ago, the government has so far failed to take any steps in that regard.

He claimed that he was made a head of a committee to recommend steps to curb price rise.

"There were two other CMs from UPA and Congress-ruled states. We gave 62 actionable points and recommended 20 initiatives. The PM said we did a good job. But two-and-a-half years have lapsed and no action has been taken. The central government has been paralysed," Modi said.

Modi - Ram combination for 2014 Lok Sabha Poll.

Ramdev to go on door-to-door campaign for Narendra Modi


TNN | Bangalore | Dec 29, 2013:: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Saturday said he will organize a door-to-door campaign—Vote for Modi—in the run up to the 2014 polls.

Ramdev, who was speaking at the Press Club, came down heavily on the Nehru family and the Congress. "Corruption exists in all parties. But politicians like Modi, Mamata Banerjee and Naveen Patnaik are not corrupt. The difference between the Congress and the BJP is that even the top leaders of the former are corrupt," he said.

Referring to Rahul Gandhi as a 'baccha', he said Modi is like the Himalayas and Rahul is too small. "Rahul has become a zero from hero. He hasn't done anything in the past 10 years, what will he do now," he said. He said he hopes to get answers from Modi on January 5 regarding problems faced by the common man in the fields of agriculture, education and health.

The yoga guru didn't even spare the new Delhi chief minister. "Arvind Kejriwal made three mistakes. He didn't stick to his promise of neither lending nor taking support from any party. He went on to take support from the Congress. He also passed comments against Anna Hazare," said Ramdev. "The day they file an FIR against Sheila Dikshit, the support will end," he said.

Baba said he doesn't believe that the Aam Aadmi Party can replicate its success in other states. "AAP can cause side effects but can't have a big impact," he said, assuring people that he will never enter active politics but only support politics that ensures a good democracy.

Narendra Modi, Arvind Kejriwal no match to Rahul Gandhi: Lalu Prasad

Muzaffarnagar | TOI | Dec 29, 2013:: Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Sunday said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal are no match to Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi.

Lalu assessed that Arvind Kejriwal and Narendra Modi is nothing in front of Rahul Gandhi.

"Rahul Gandhi is Rahul Gandhi. It is the media, which has created the hype about Kejriwal and Modi," claimed Lalu.

He also attacked the AAP saying, "In a month, people of Delhi will realise that they have made a mistake. People don't know what kind of people they are, especially the people living in slums don't know about their mistake.

"The dream Kejriwal has showed to the people is nothing but a big drama. He will set the worst record of governance in Delhi. He is no Raja Harishchandra," he added.

Lalu, who is on a visit to Muzaffarnagar relief camps and meet the families of riot victims, said, "Muzaffarnagar riot victims were in relief camps and during that time I was in jail. I got to know that many children have died due to the cold. So, I had decided that I would definitely visit the relief camps and meet the families staying there."

Prasad, whose party is expected to have an alliance with the Congress for the next Lok Sabha polls, came in Muzaffarnagar Sunday morning.

His visit is being coordinated by Rajya Sabha member Mohammed Adeeb. Adeeb was made the member of the upper house with the support of the Samajwadi Party and the Congress.

Prasad is expected to visit half a dozen relief camps inhabited by members of the Muslim community.

Prasad is considered a popular leader among the community and his party RJD had been in power in Bihar for 15 years largely on the basis of MY (Muslim-Yadav) combination.

Prasad, who had arrested BJP leader L K Advani during the Ram Janambhoomi movement in the 1990s, has been projecting himself to be a true secular and talking about playing a larger role in halting the march of Narendra Modi-led BJP.

Lalu's visit comes a week after Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi made an unannounced visit to to the riot-hit areas of Muzaffarnagar district and relief camps to meet the affected people from both the Muslim and Hindu communities.

Lift US ban on Modi. 'Will India's next leader be banned from America?' : Foreign Policy.

European stricture to USA: Clear the Visa for Modi.

MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES 

US may lose ground to Europe in engaging with Narendra Modi 

Dipanjan Roy Chaudhury | ET Bureau | 16 Dec, 2013:: The United States may risk alienating the BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi if it continues to restrict his travel to the country and does not engage with him at the level of its ambassador, influential US-based global affairs magazine Foreign Policy has said.


In an article titled 'Will India's next leader be banned from America?', the magazine has argued that the US may lose ground to its allies in Europe if it delays engaging with Modi especially after the BJP's stellar performance in the recent assembly elections.

Modi was denied a US visa in 2005 due to his alleged role in the 2002 riots in Gujarat when he was chief minister. Although Modi has not applied for a visa since, the US government has repeatedly indicated that its policy of denying him a visa on the grounds of religious freedom violations remains in place.

"If the United States continues to restrict Modi's travel and freeze him out of diplomatic discussions at the ambassadorial level, it risks alienating an important partner on everything from trade to security to finance to diaspora issues. By contrast, the European Union, Britain, and Germany have all engaged in ambassador-level discussions with Modi. This status quo also risks insulting hundreds of millions of Indians," the magazine said.

US Ambassador to India Nancy Powell is yet to meet Modi while her counterparts from the UK, France, Germany, EU and Canada have all held discussions with him. The US' Consul General in Mumbai is the highest ranking diplomat from his country to have Modi so far. The US' neighbour Canada, on the other hand, has partnered the Modi-led government twice in the Vibrant Gujarat Summit, in 2011 and 2013.

Modi's impact on Congress Leaders. Congress MP Rao Inderjit Singh is now batting for Modi.

MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES MODI TIMES 


Modi Care. Wining the hearts of politicians of other parties. 

Narendra Modi's impact on voters led to Congress' rout: Rebel Congress MP Rao Inderjit Singh 

PTI | REWARI 11 DEC, 2013:: BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's impact on voters has led to the rout of Congress in Assembly polls in the four states, rebel Congress MP Rao Inderjit Singh has said. 

The MP from Gurgaon said Modi's "tangible charisma would reveal itself more conspicuously during the coming Lok Sabha polls as BJP was discernibly leaping toward climax."

Rao told reporters yesterday that while the outcome of the Delhi polls would influence the Haryana Assembly elections in a big way, the electorate of the state, unlike Delhi, was expected to give a clear mandate to a single party other than the Congress. 

He said the charisma of Congress chief Sonia Gandhi and that party's star campaigner Rahul Gandhi was on the "wane", and added that Modi's rising popularity also influenced their electioneering in Delhi adversely. 

He also asked AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal to form government in Delhi with the help of Congress and fulfill the promises made to the people.

He was, however, quick to remark that if elections were to be held again, AAP could lose some support.

Regarding his own endeavours in the present political scenario in the state, Rao, who heads apolitical Haryana Insaaf Manch, said he was working to provide a strong alternative to the Congress in Haryana. 

Earlier, he had made it clear that he will not contest any future elections on Congress ticket.

Modi Age in Indian Politics.

Saffron March begins towards Delhi. It’s the Secular Modi Politics of New Hindu Age

~ Upananda Brahmachari.
1466319_582416108480950_302659971_nThe Modi magic has out spelled the Congress. The result in Assembly Election in four states viz Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh and Delhi slapped Mrs Sonia Gandhi as to rethink her words as ‘Maut ki Saudagar’ (trader of deaths) as levelled to Sri Narendra Bhai Modi. Now, she can realize the effect of her words, when Modi and BJP stand before them as a hallmark of the ‘death of Congress’ in some days.
It’s a jubilation time for BJP and all the Modi supporters. Reversely, it is a worst time for a shrinking Congress and its ‘Antaratma’ (inner soul), Sonia Antonia Mino alias Sonia Gandhi.
The people of these four states realized the conspiracy of Congress to rule the majority people through the appeasement of minority. Now, the majority Hindu people of these four states reacted and reflected their support to the BJP icon and the Prime Ministerial candidate Sri Narendra Modi in the coming parliamentary election in 2014.
At first I must congratulate and thank the people of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh and Delhi to make BJP as a big winner and wash out Congress (I), the  most corrupted, betrayer and divisive party of modern times. The win by 4-0 is a great victory and I want to thank again, the Team Modi and the people of these states.

The Final Tally- BJP has won 408 out of 589 seats, which is near 70% of the total seats. Phenomenal! Congress shrunk - only 21% of seats it got. In other consideration BJP has taken lead in 65 Parliamentary constituency ares out of 72 seats covered by these four states.  This is a wonderful beginning towards success in our Mission272+ & for fulfilling the dream of a Congress Mukt (free) Bharat. People wants a coronation of Modi as the Prime Minister of India.

People have spoken loud and clear! The verdict has shown yet again that people want development, not corruption & votebank politics. Modi conveyed thanks to the people for reposing their faith in BJP for India. Modi now wants to assure a hard 
work  to fulfil people's dreams & aspirations.
The people of these four states pledged their support for a Narendra Modi, who is able, out-spoken, liberal, developmental, risk-taker and obviously Nationalist.  Everybody knows that Narendra Modi is proud to call himself as a ‘Hindu Nationalist’. So, all the nationalist people have the only choice to support one and only Narendra Bhai Modi and BJP.
The road is ahead. Now, his political size is obviously bigger than Gujarat. Modi’s unstoppable journey to Delhi to be the next Prime minister  of India begins. Also his new battle.
Final Tally 2013 4 States Elction Result.
I never met Modi, not even went to Gujarat.  But, I feel that Gujarat is serving as a gateway to enter into a Modi Raj (regime) in India. The model of Gujarat development, the administration, the scope for business, the social harmony and the image of Narendra Modi as a free and fair person, is a new hope for all.
I hear that the light of Karachi ports is seen from the sea shore of Gujarat, in some part. But presently, Pakistan does not dare to run there nefarious ISI activities and Jihad against Indian people in the soil of Gujarat. For a reasonable time under Modi Raj in Gujarat, the state  stands a ‘riot free’ and ‘terror free’ state. The Pakistani operators find other states to run their anti-Indian activities. Everybody fear to enter in a lion’s cage. It is also true for Pakistan and doggy Jihad operators.
The Muslims of Gujarat has settled their mind to support Modi time and again as Gujarat is the most prosperous and safest place for the Muslims in India. Muslims of Gujarat live in peace and settled their mind to stay with Modi. The rumour against Modi as ‘anti-Muslim’ has no meaning for the Muslims and Gujarat.
Two of my Muslim friends are finding scope to sell out their property one in Odisha and the other in Bengal only to settle in Gujarat permanently. These Muslim businessmen have been running their business in Gujarat very successfully for years together. They are highly satisfied with Modi for taking meaningful measures for Muslims as human being, not as minority. As both these Muslim young men are frustrated with the miserable condition of Muslims and the fake political assurances to them in their native states.
Actually, the Muslims are India is gradually abandoning the misleading concept and propaganda against Modi as launched by Congress. Huge numbers of Muslims brothers have attended the Modi’s election rallies in these four states and thousands of them already joined BJP. We can say unhesitatingly that Modi is now symbolized as an icon of unity for all Hindu-Muslim and real nationalist people.
Knowing fully well, the stands of Modi for Art. 370, his stand against Communal Violence Bill, his humane treatment for Muslims (not a minority reservation gimmick) and his proud ‘Hindu Nationalist’ view  denying to wear any skull cap, Narendra Modi  is being accepted by a major section of  Muslims all over India.
The results of assembly elections in these four states have also proved it. Good number of Muslims have voted for BJP, having their faith on Modi. It is a very a good sign for BJP and the social harmony too.

Narendra Modi's contribution to BJP win.

NaMo NaMo. Congress and others start Debate on Modi's Contribution in BJP's win etc. Modi starts march to make every state of India as Modi State, BJP State. Har Har Modi, Ghar Ghar Modi. Strengthen the BJP, Make India Prosperous. ~ MT. 


Narendra Modi's contribution to BJP win: the big debate

 
The BJP had named Narendra Modi presumptive PM in September.
Seen here, Modi arrives at the party headquarters in New Delhi.
Samira Shaikh | NDTV | New Delhi | 
December 08, 2013:: Narendra Modi, the BJP's prime ministerial candidate for 2014, arrived in Delhi on Sunday amid intense debate over his contribution to the BJP's superb performance in Assembly elections for which votes were counted. 

Top Congress leaders magnanimously congratulated the BJP's local leaders in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, states it has swept, but emphasised that they do not see this as a "Modi wave."

Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said, "Modi has not had any impact in Madhya Pradesh." 

But the BJP's Ravi Shankar Prasad said while no praise was enough for the efforts of his party's state leaders like Vasundhara Raje in Rajasthan and Shivraj Singh Chouhan in Madhya Pradesh, Mr Modi's impact must not be understated either. He said Mr Modi's extensive campaigning had enthused not just party cadre, but also voters. 

Ms Raje, set to be Rajasthan chief minister, said Mr Modi was "a very big factor" in her victory. She also predicted that, "This is the semi-final to what is going to happen," holding that today's results portend a return to power for her party in the national elections under Mr Modi's leadership. 

The BJP had named Mr Modi presumptive PM in September, overriding the suggestion of party leaders like LK Advani that this should be done only after these assembly elections. 

His fans say that confidence of the party in Mr Modi has been validated by today's performance. Detractors point out that if Mr Modi was indeed a big factor in these elections, then the BJP should've done better in Delhi, where it has emerged as the largest party in a hung House and in Chhattisgarh, where it has won by a slender majority.
