Thank you for respecting the hardwork of this author. About the Book Narendra Modi, the present Prime Minister of India, is a true blue RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or National Volunteers Organization) swayamsevak or volunteer. More importantly, he is a product of prachaarak system, a unique institution of RSS. More than his election campaigns, his conduct after becoming the Prime Minister really tells us how a responsible RSS worker and prachaarak responds to any responsibility he is entrusted with. His rise is also illustrative example of submission by author in this book that RSS has been able to design a system that can create ‘extraordinary achievers out of ordinary people’. When the first edition of Secrets of RSS was released, air was thick with motivated propaganda about ‘Saffron terror’ and RSS was the favourite whipping boy as the face of ‘Hindu fascism’. Now as the second edition is ready for release, environment has transformed radically.

  • Narendra Modi (Narendra Damodardas Modi)
    Narendra Modi (Narendra Damodardas Modi) India, Primer ministro (2014-) Duración del mandato: 26 de Mayo de 2014 - En funciones Nacimiento: Vadnagar, distrito de Mehsana, estado de Gujarat, 17 de Septiembre de 1950 Partido político: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Resumen Las elecciones generales celebradas en India entre abril y mayo de 2014 han supuesto el triunfo arrasador de una fuerza política derechista, el Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), pero sobre todo de una persona revestida de un carisma nada común, Narendra Modi. El hasta ahora ministro principal del estado de Gujarat, un veterano militante del nacionalismo hindú que trenza en su discurso los guiños religiosos y el pragmatismo económico de signo liberal, ha devuelto a su formación al poder tras una década en la oposición al Gobierno del secularista Partido del Congreso (INC), hoy laminado en las urnas. El masivo corrimiento electoral, el mayor en 30 años, deja en manos del BJP una confortable mayoría absoluta en el Lok Sabha, mayoría que se acerca a los dos tercios con la suma de los socios de la Alianza Democrática Nacional (NDA). Durante la larga campaña electoral, librada con brillantez, Modi supo vender los logros de su gestión en Gujarat y fue indiferente a las viejas acusaciones de responsabilidad (ya descartada por los tribunales) en las masacres de cientos de gujaratíes musulmanes cuando las violencias intercomunales de 2002. Neutralizando las críticas por los aspectos más turbios de su reputación, que evocan a un hinduista sectario desdeñoso con las minorías y tendente al autoritarismo, Modi derrochó dinamismo, propuestas de avance nacional y una imagen de político inmune a la corrupción y administrador eficiente.
