Narendra Modi: UK high commissioner meets Gujarat chief

[ALOK31]

The UK's high commissioner in India has met Narendra Modi, the chief minister of Gujarat state, ending a 10-year boycott of the controversial leader.

The UK and other Western governments suspended ties with Narendra Modi, after religious riots in 2002.

An estimated 1,000 people were killed, most of them Muslim, three of them British citizens.

Mr Modi was accused of not doing anything to stop the violence, but he has always denied any wrongdoing.

One of India's most prominent politicians, he has been exonerated by several inquiries.

The British government this month changed its policy and said High Commissioner James Bevan would travel to Gujarat.

Close Gujarat ties

Mr Modi has been tipped as a potential future prime minister, partly because of his record of turning his state into one of India's economic powerhouses.

The UK has had no official contact with him since the communal riots in Gujarat because of his alleged complicity in the violence against Muslims, which saw hundreds killed by Hindu nationalists.

Many Britons of Indian descent trace their origins to Gujarat, and London says British interests, such as boosting investment ties, are better served by engagement, not continuing isolation.

Gujarat is one of India's most economically advanced states and many British companies are already investing in it, while others are waiting to, correspondents say.

But human rights groups and relatives of three Britons who were killed in the riots have criticised the meeting.

[INDIAISM]

Modi is a self made man...who don't comes from influential family like Baba log in India...and these two quotes perfectly suits his personality...


Khud- E- Ko Ker Buland Itna,
Ki Har Taqdeer se Pehle,
Khuda Khud Bandey se Pooche,
Bta Teri Rza Kya hai...



You Can Either Love Him,
Or You Can Hate Him,
But You Can't Ignore Him..

how can you even compare a democratically elected leader with osama

 

[Awesome]

"Democratic", is not Bleach that it will clean all. If the Mehsud tribe votes for Hakimullah Mehsud, Hakimullah Mehsud doesn't get clean, Mehsud tribe gets dirty.

Osama, had Al Qaeda, Modi has the state of Gujarat, consistently voting for massacre and genocide. India will have it worse, it will have democratically declared itself as supporters of massacre and genocide.

You comparing great Modi with a terrorist? damn

May be Christians ,Muslims and secular idiots feels such pain in future.

Did Modi ordered killing of people in Godhara ? He just didn't give orders to stop the killings just like Pakistani govt. doesn't give order to bring down drones that are killing more people in your country.

What I am surprised to see is senior people comparison between Modi and Osama. ?

Do you guys know, he started the Pregnant Women Support Scheme in Gujrat that may have saved hundreds of women and their childrens' lives by now considering so many women die in India while delivering the baby and lack of resources.

Atleast comparison should be done with many common denominators which should be mentioned beforehand.

He legally freed from all charges buddy. Muslim leaders can be elected in muslim country but hindus supporter/well wisher shouldn't be elected as leader in hindu majority country. You calming those condition as worse what a logic?.

Btw I already posted this thread so merge those two threads.

How little is known of India & democracy is evident from this post .

Democracy is not a bleach but an acid test, you cannot fool all the ppl all the time. Why do you think the Generals in Pak do not go for it ?

A person has to stand up & face the electorate. BJP thought they had it good & called for elections pre maturely .. and fell on its face !

The Congress is going to face the same it in the next elections.

Gujarat voting for the massacre ? Does any one spare a moment for those who perished in the train fire at Godhra ?

 

[newdelhinsa]

Asking opinion of Pakistani members who are one sided, brainwashed by convenient propaganda is just stupid by part of an Indian members.

Its an internal matter of India including Indian muslims, ''Pakistani mamey ne lagde Indian muslmana dey, te na he oh banan de koshis karan''.

You just proved my point Sir,

He is an angle for the Hindu community of India. Not for Christian, Muslims and Secular communities of India

Since when Islam became a Secular community... Anti-Muslim is not anti-secular , Islam itself is anti secular religion
