Yet again a journalist has asked me to identify an individual who is the alternative to Mr Modi.
The question is irrelevant in the Parliamentary system. We are not electing an individual (as In a presidential system), but a party, or coalition of parties, that represents a set of principles and convictions that are invaluable to preserve India’s diversity, pluralism and inclusive growth.
The alternative to Mr Modi is a group of experienced, capable and diverse Indian leaders who will be responsive to people’s problems and not driven by individual ego.
Which specific person they will choose to be Prime Minister is a secondary consideration. Protecting our democracy and diversity comes first.
You may agree or disagree about the contents of the BBC documentary, but these Income Tax searches are the hallmarks of a thin skinned state. Ahead of the G 20, it’s a poor look for India as we call ourselves the mother of democracy

BJP people's are distributing liquor and the Election Commission is silent on this, will the Election Commission give any clarification on this?
