Given the kind of world we are witnessing & the associated geopolitical challenges, likely to pan out over the course of next 7 years; I am convinced that India’s need for Narendra Modi as its Prime Minister is more pronounced today than ever before.
In other words, his 9+ yrs of Prime Ministership has given him experience and insight, that will serve us best, when turbulence starts to hit the world.
Honestly, I shudder to think of having a govt other than that of Narendra Modi in these crucial times. Hypothetically asking, can u imagine having a PM like a compromised Rahul Gandhi or a powerless Manmohan Singh to help tide over the crisis and challenges, that current geopolitical turbulence is likely to throw during next 7 years.
I’m not unduly perturbed about the development or everything else as it is guaranteed with PM Modi at the helm of the Indian affairs.
Our need for him is more pronounced now for geopolitical reasons.
The Geopolitical Need: The American Example
An American news outlet Axios has published an article about how American insiders feel that the challenges they are witnessing are never felt since the end of World War 2.
It is undeniable truth that America ruled the world for long and has influenced modern world like no other nation. They created a world order of their own to maintain their supremacy.
However, American hegemony and its control of the old world order is experiencing extreme resistance from the rising powers and alliances. New blocks are forming at the rapid pace and old ones are becoming inconsequential. The bitter truth is that Ukraine war has busted the halo, they had created around NATO. Multilateral international bodies like UNO are already past their prime and current war in Gaza has again proven its uselessness.
Amidst all this, America is severely divided down the middle and doesn’t look prepared to deal with the ensuing challenges. And the reasons thereof can be found within US only. America, in the name of progressives, ended up creating a Frankenstein monster within America. This has dented the advantage it has been enjoying ever since it became a world power – American geographical separation from the war theatres.
Yes, it is a fact that the one reason why USA could rule the world, lies in the fact that it was geographically separated from all the theatres of war. This meant that while it could participate in the wars elsewhere, others had no ability to hit back. This theory is proven by the fact that two events that shook America were attacks on American soil – Pearl Harbour and 9/11 and America retaliated in exactly same fashion – taking the war into other theatres!
However, unfortunately for them, this advantage is now gone and they have, the Frankenstein monster, they helped create, to blame for that. It is no rocket science that the ideological wars can never be defeated with arms and ammunition and a deeply divided America cannot fight the monster, they created. The pace of adjustments and conflict has been so severe that no force in the world can stop changes in the global pecking order anymore. The process of painful readjustment and realignment, that started with Ukraine, is now likely to intensify after Israel conflict. And it will causes implosion of western hegemony and the old world order. All the events that will cause this implosion will manifest in next few years and the entire process is going to be painfully devastating for the humanity and nations. India cannot ask for anyone better than Narendra Modi during these challenging times. For that we need continuity as man of his leadership skills and qualities alone can steer India safely out of turbulence, that is set to hit the world and consequently India. That is the biggest reason we ought to support him today; else our future generations will never forgive us!
The Civilizational Need: The Israel Example
Videos released by the Israeli Defence Force shows the barbarity and the savagery that was unleashed by Hamas terrorists upon innocent Israeli civilians. The video attached below is not for the faint-hearted. If you are able to muster enough courage to watch it till the end, understand that the Congress headed by its de-facto leader Rahul Gandhi and other parties of the I.N.D.I Alliance have not condemned this brutality or even named Hamas, in order to not antagonize Muslims.
If u r able to muster enough courage to watch it till the end, know that party headed by RahulGandhi has NOT condemned this terror attack just to harvest Muslim votes. Hindus wake up before it is too late – don’t let this sick man divide us pic.twitter.com/suNfFHvzqQ

By doing so, they hope to win over the trust of the Muslim Jamats and there by the Muslim voters, consolidate them and harvest the votes during the elections. And once in power, that government will go to any extent and do everything possible to appease them. Just like what is happening in Karnataka now.
Imagine the plight of Israelis if they had an equivalent of a ‘secular’ party like Congress and its allies and a leader like Rahul Gandhi, that does votebank politics at times like this. There wouldn’t be an Israel at all. Israel as a country survives because of the strong Israeli State.

Hindus must realize why achievement of civilizational goals and shared objectives lies in strengthening unity; continuously win elections, form government and make difference of state and govt to disappear.
Modern India as it exists today, is oscillating between two ends – the Indian Government and the Indian State.
In the aftermath of 1947, Nehru managed a miracle and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi by Nathuram Godse came as a blessing for him. He created an Indian State where every arm of the government was geared to work towards strengthening his family and its grip on India.
Result was that while his family kept becoming stronger and stronger, state became weak and Government was reduced to a mere facilitator of family goal of ruling India perpetually. So much so, that family didn’t even face any problem while pushing an Italian as a leader of a 5000 years old civilization.
Nehru built Modern Indian State for his personal greed and on a curtailed piece of land left after sacrificing a part of 5000 yers old civilization. Dare I say that while we have Bharat today, the land that gave Bharat its present shape, was sacrificed at the altar of Nehru’s personal greed. At the cost of repeating myself, let me reiterate that it was Godse who gave him a reason to go for the kill. He filled Hindus with so much guilt that Hindus even accepted a weak and anti Hindu state.
Coming back to video, my reason behind sharing it here was to bring home the importance of understanding how brutal other side is towards its perceived enemies and what they are capable of once security situation deteriorates.
The Need For Continuance Of Modi
In 2014, part of Hindu society realized the family’s game and took some remedial measures and we got the Modi govt.
To Narendra Modi’s credit, he realizes all this and is assiduously working on undoing the damage of 65 yrs, trying to bridge divide as existing between government and the state. He knows that in ancient India, the state, faith, government and culture, all worked for one goal which made Bharat a great power in the world. Narendra Modi is working towards that.
The fact is that he never felt shy of wearing his faith on his sleeves while discharging his duties as PM. Our unfortunate reality is that larger Hindu thought has NOT changed since invasions first began. However attempts to at least make us realize importance of cultivating common political thought and hence take a shot at power, did bear results. 2014 happened and immediately our security situation improved as Modi government took war into enemy camp.
Thanks to that we have a relatively much improved security internally today. But as a race with very short individual memories, we are bound to forget importance of work of Modi government in securing us. Not just individual memory, our civilizational memory is also taken for granted. And it is only through our civilizational wounds, that refuse to heal, we remember some of our past.
The IDF video does precisely that. It also reminds us of how Rahul Gandhi and his Congress didn’t even condemn terror, evident in the video. This shows how he is back to using age old methods to divide us Hindus on the basis of caste, language and religion – all in pursuit of his power.
While our society has kept pace with the intellectual development and everything that comes as a result of that, we keep forgetting that enemy – coopted by Rahul Gandhi types – is out to destroy our basic existence. As against us, Jews haven’t and that is why they have a state of their own and we don’t.
Today the reality is that we are moving towards that stage under the Modi Government, slowly & slowly. Enemy knows it well. It is incumbent upon us masses, thought leaders and intellectuals, to understand this fact and also work towards developing our collective Shatrubodh.
In conclusion, let me make it very very clear. If there is one enemy for the Hindus, it is Congress. Congress is the ONLY enemy of Hindus. Defeating Congress and anybody who is with them is hence essential.
Winning elections is important for forming government. Government is important for the Indian State and to merge the two into one – we need the Modi government to continue.
