The One Factor: Fear of Mr Modi
The
0, invented in India, has changed the world, but almost parallel to 1
God influencing mankind media, of late, seems to be abuzz with India
invoked number 1. This is because the talk is about one person Modi, one
incident Gujarat riots 2002, one accusation of him not controlling the
riots, one election of him getting chance to rule India and one fear of a
divided India under his rule.Seeing leftist Indian media 'making a living' out of misreporting and creating stories against Modi although right wingers reserved the hash tag #paidmedia for it, forced possibly more by the rise and rise of Modi it has toned down its rhetoric. Almost as a foreign aid or admonition or an answer to a call like 'workers of the world unite' western media including The Economist, Guardian and even the BBC have come up with the single chorus 'Say not to Modi' to amplify the one. Although by no means of media but by all means people successful in their own fields, a group ‘led’ by ones with blood from the East e.g. Salman Rushdie, Homi Bhabha, A Kapoor etc. by publishing a letter against Modi in The Guardian even added spice to the ‘one’.
