It was Litho Press Ground, in the plains of Roorkee, which appears to be the political pilgrim spot, where thousands of followers had gathered to get a glimpse of Narendra Modi, the political messiah they have been waiting for to deliver them out of all their troubles.Youngsters, the Modi choice group in the 18-28 age formed a sizable audience at Modi’s Roorkee rally.
The mood of young of new India was displayed by the two young girls, who excitedly clicked his pictures on their smart phones as Modi took centre stage. They were excited that he took the time to visit their city, and hope that it will now become as good as Gujarat once he takes over as the PM.
The atmosphere is of pure devotion, when one of the girls, who teaches at a school nearby,"We've heard women there roam freely at night, we also want such freedom,".
Modi blasted on the arrogance of Gandhi destiny and blamed late Rajiv Gandhi who had started "gusse ki rajneeti", which his son and Congress heir apparent Rahul and his sister Priyanka have been displaying now. Earlier Rahul Gandhi had stated that that BJP indulges in politics of anger (gusse ki rajneeti), while the Congress has love in its heart.
Modi gave examples of how Rajiv, when he was a nobody, publicly insulted Tanguturi Anjaiah, chief minister of Andhra Pradesh in the early 80s, at the Hyderabad Airport, while Priyanka displayed her hate on calling her equal to daughter by an elderly person, even without checking the real facts. It was not anger but bigger hate of the fact of loosing power, along with that her husband's lucrative wealth grabbing business.
INDIA HONEST justifies on Modi arguments and reasoning how the young cannot afford to waste even a day in their lives, but if they choose a "nikammi" government at the Centre, they would end up losing five years of their lives.
The young population between 18 and 30, saw merit in Modi's argument against the Sonia-Rahul duo as well they are trusting the changed face of Gujarat,that is far away from the lucrative but false promises of Sonia-Rahul led Congress, that they have made several times before election only to forget later on .
Another young man, who runs a gym called Cuts and Curves in the city, opened up and said, "I thought that was the best part of his speech," . "We took off for the day, and I told all my 250 students to take an off and most of them are here listening to Modi. They will all vote for him," .
He added , what is the mood of the young nation, "And what is it that makes Modi so endearing to him and the young? "He has will power, he is strong; he will change the face of India," .
