Patriotism is the answer

I remember listening to indira, rajiv gandhi, bunch of PMs in between, Nrao, MMS, sonia gandhi, MGR, Jayalalitha, karunandhi, different CMs of karnataka, various presidents and so on till Kejriwal's negativism. You feel like an odd person in the crowd that is full of rogues and local rowdys listening to fake rhetoric speech.

Narendra Modi's speech on 27th Jan 2014 at Shreshta Bharat Divas in Mumbai here

Listening to Narendra Modi never feels like listening to politics, but some kind of leadership training specifically customized to your needs. Topics that are never heard from politicians, about strategic vision for India as a country, defense manufacturing locally, alternative energy, war memorials, energy self sufficiency, patriotism, strategic development etc. There is absolutely no mention of caste, minority-ism, divisives, subsidy, quota, freebies, new subsidy schemes and other fake rhetoric. Rally/speech by politicians has never been so motivating since the times of Nehru/Patel era. Never before politician's rallies started and ended with vande matrams and jai hinds.

Only person today who wakes up our sleeping patriotism, while we are all buried under our day to day challenges and enjoyments.

I was part of this famous and easiest position of educated and politically non-active people that 'everybody is bad', 'system itself is corrupt', 'nothing will change', 'politics is for rogues', 'who cares', 'bribary is a way of life', 'indians are assholes by nature' etc. Modi's speeches are wake up calls to our minds in sedation, and he makes you realize that negativism and knee jerk activism are not the solution, but strategic development, sense of unity and patriotism are the needs of this country.

Lokpal is not the answer, we already have swaraj, ie democracy. Anarchic activism is a check on the imbalance, it is not the government itself.

Patriotism is the answer. Development is the answer
