Narendra Modi: Master of the national game - India Today

India Today

No-nonsense alternative to venal political class The Gujarat experience has also pointed to Modi's hold over women's imagination. The third feature of Modi's political strength is his ability to inspire the BJP's bedrock social constituency-the middle classes. Today, a much larger and more fiercely aspirational middle class may well view Modi as the no-nonsense alternative to a bunch of narrow-minded, self-serving and venal political class.
