Once upon a time there was a Prime Minister...his name was Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru.Then came Lal Bahadur Shastri followed by Indira Gnadhi, Morarji Desai, Rajiv Gandhi, VP Singh, Chandrashekhar,PV Narsimha Rao, IK Gujral, HD Deve Gowda, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh. All these names drew flak from the citizens,for their wrong doings and weak decisions and were applauded by for their gutsy and right ones.
But since 16th may, 2014 it seems that GOD himself has taken over the country and every time, anyone says a word against him or is even critical of him, there is huge hullabaloo. Questions are raised not about why and what has been been criticized but about HOW can he be criticized. How dare anyone!
Fellow citizens, all the other mentioned names were also the HONORABLE Prime Minister's of this country and there have been many adjectives(GOOd/BAD) given to them, cartoons made on them and lot was said in their criticism. I wish this world was ruled by God and it would have been heaven then but, ironically we live in an atmosphere today which has corrupt souls and sold conscience and hence we are ruled IN THE NAME OF GOD.
I, decline to consider a human being as God. Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Damodardas Modi is my Prime Minister too and I bet if he is as cool as it seems then he would believe in that Rahim ka Doha which says one should keep his critic near and even build his hut near to his own house. In that case, the kind of stature and knowledge Mr Modi possesses, I am sure he will love me a lot.
But anyways, he is our PM and not the great Rajnikant who does no wrong. Even Rajnikant seems flattered by his portrayal in contrast to his real life simple personality. He is one God in Tamil Cinema who himself has survived cancer. He too is human being right?
So fellow citizens it is alright if PM Modi is criticized for something that many/some think is right and many/some think is wrong. We should not over-expect. Having said that, I keep my expectations reserved. Lets not travel much into the history and just stop at 20th century and see what has happened to all the rulers who have promised more than they should have and people have over-expected much more than what they even promised. It is us who have to work. He is the director (and not the dictator) We are the artists. . We can choose to be heroes and villains, but what needs to be kept in mind is that we should sign this one only after we are sure about the script that is pitched in front of us.
And one should remember, we have seen 14 Prime Ministers before as well. They were called Dogs and mute and womanizer and what not! So neither our current Prime Minister GOD...nor any of the previous one was DOG. Respect has its own legacy. Well, we, the people of this country seem to have broken it. IF he deserves respect, so did they. He will always deserve respect and no matter what, others will always deserve it too! Let us not forget that he was not sitting at his 'chai ki gumti' from where he jumped and became the Prime Minister. He worked hard for it and won the faith of the majority in the world's largest democracy. Similarly, neither of the previous Prime Ministers were elected randomly or were of the government that did not have the numbers. WE gave them those numbers with our votes.
WE- THE PEOPLE OF INDIA.
