MODI DOES IT AGAIN.........

Praising oneself within acceptable limits and boundaries is a good thing and appreciable too, but claiming to be Superman without rhyme or reason is surely stretching the limits of credibility a little too far......


I am neither a Modi hater or Modi baiter and have thus far preferred to take his grandiose claims about having turned Gujarat into a haven for it's 6 odd crore citizens and a shining beacon in an otherwise dull, dreary and desolate India with a pinch of salt at the best of times.......

But Modi's grandstanding about having rescued 15 odd thousand Gujaratis from the clutches of a rampaging mother nature is surely stretching the limits of credulity or then should I say incredulity beyond all reasonable limits.......

The army and air force despite all the resources at their command have thus far not been able to evacuate more than 3-4,000 people from precarious perches on any given day so how did Modi achieve this superhuman feat of evacuating 15,000 plus Gujaratis to safer and more salubrious climes within a single day........

Did he spawn wings or then acquire super human abilities, or then did he have a direct link with the almighty through which he managed to abrogate unto himself the untold and immense powers of the almighty for that given period, only Mr. Modi and nobody else can shed further light on these super human achievements.......

One does understand the fact that blowing your own trumpet and hard selling oneself is the only way forward in these days of the social media and intense networking, but was this disgusting and misplaced attempt at one upmanship or then come uppance really required in these trying and testing times when everyone's attention is focussed on rescuing every single living being stuck in treacherous climes and escorting them to seemingly safer havens.......

Putting one's foot in one's mouth every time one opens it is an art that has been mastered by many a present day politician, but what makes Modi special is the fact that he manages to contort his entire body into his mouth every time he opens the same.........

Modi surely seems to have got it wrong this time around, his misplaced and ill advised attempt at styling himself as a present day "Rambo" or then "Man of Steel" has only earned him brickbats instead of plaudits and wide spread derision this time around......

Time to change the "witch doctors" around you Mr. Modi or better still cultivate a far more studious and sobered down image that will endear you to all sections of the Indian society and media as well rather than a certain section that seems to be hanging onto your every word and deed or then should I say misdeed.......

And certain fawning sections of the media who seem to believe that giving credence to your myths and flights of fancy is it's avowed aim as long as they rule the airwaves.......

Come on Mr. Modi, did you really expect all and sundry to blindly accept the fact (?) that you almost single handedly achieved the super human feat of evicting or rescuing 15,000 plus Gujaratis within a 24 hour time span, we were neither born yesterday nor brought up on Rajnikant's films..........
