February 27th, 2002 - That was the fateful morning when a mob of
a thousand Muslims burnt an entire coupe of Sabarmati Express
carrying Ramsewaks returning from Ayodhya Ram Janmbhoomi, to death!
At this heinous crime, the secularists of India, infamous for their
hypocrisy and ignoble in words and deeds, in so many words
suggested first that it was an 'accident', then cooked up
ridiculous theories of 'fight with a tea-hawker' leading to a
thousand people assembling with Petrol cans and torching the train,
and even implied, that since they were Ramsewaks, they had provoked
muslims to burn them to death! This nefarious design of those
people, their sheer apathy exhausted even the infinite Hindu
patience, and there was reaction - one that had the capacity of
blow Gujarat off, but the government controlled it.
790 Muslims and 254 Hindus were killed in the riots. Over a 200
went missing. While the CM of Gujarat had recorded an appeal to
maintain peace and that was telecast on Doordarshan continuously
[YouTube Video], even VHP leader
Acharya Giriraj Kishore had requested to maintain peace. Yes, there
were enraged groups - and they were understandably so. Hindu
organisations often call themselves 'parivar', a family. The people
have close personal contact. If 59 members of one's family are
burnt to death, and there is a propaganda implying how they
'deserved' that death because they were returning from Ayodhya, one
is bound to lose control of one's actions. This is no justification
of what came around, but an explanation based on simply human
psychology and human weaknesses. But those group of people was also
joined in by goons from the opposition party, who wanted to
exacerbate the situation to bring the Modi government down, to once
again prove how 'deadly' the 'communal' BJP can be for the
minorities. This stands on record that Gulberg society riots had
Meghsingh Chaudhary, a Congress leader involved who was arrested
and presented to Supreme Court for his active role in that case,
one that torched Ehsan Jafri and 34 others packed in the former's
house, to death.
It is true that Gujarat riots is one in which so many people have
been convicted. Partial justice has already been done, unlike in
previous riots where culprits would go scot-free. It is also true
that Gujarat government had created a commission including the
Leader of Opposition in the State Assembly to look after the
rehabilitation of nearly 1 lakh Muslims and 40000 Hindus who were
displaced because of riots. Even this is true that Gujarat which
had a long history of communal riots, where even children's dispute
would lead to killings, has not seen any riots or even scuffle for
almost 10 years now. The 'sauno-saath, sauno vikaas' Sadbhavana
Mantra of Narendra Modi has accomplished it. How Modi is impartial
when it comes to administration is also proved by how he didn't
hesitate to order the partial demolition of nearly 80 temples
[Modi on temple demolition drive, VHP
fumes] of Gandhinagar which were illegally encroaching
roads.
On one hand stands the grief and misery of those who lost their
close ones in Godhara and post-Godhara riots. The pain of the
victims was compounded by a relentless, selfish and often malafide
media in their paranoia to blame Modi for all that happened, and
for that invented despicable lies. It was compounded by of the
league of Teesta Seetalwad who dug out buried dead bodies from
their caves with no regard to the departed soul, only to drive her
agenda. [Teesta's own aid submits proof of fake
affidavits to Nanavati Commission]. And it was compounded by
the league of those politicians who like Sonia Gandhi called Modi a
mass-murderer and merchant of death, without recalling how a late
Rajiv Gandhi had virtually justified the anti-sikh riots
orchestrated and organised by Congress leaders and workers post
Indira assassination, because the assassins were Sikhs, even
forgetting how these so-called followers of Gandhi had murdered
innumerable Marathi Brahmins because Nathuram Godse was a Marathi
Brahmin!
But perhaps bigger than the combined grief of the riot victims'
families, is the pain and ordeal that this one man, Narendra Modi
has undergone. In Bhagwad Geeta, Lord Krishna reminds Arjun how
infamy is worse than death for a noble person. For 10 years,
Narendra Modi has endured all the infamy that the hate-mongers in
media, the secular extremists and the liberal militants tried to
bring upon him. This is not something ordinary. Lordess Sita did
not tolerate when she was falsely accused. She first left Ayodhya,
and then, the world. Lord Krishna did not tolerate when Shishupal
went on abusing Him. After a 100 abuses, He ended his streak of
life. Modi did not do either. He did not run away from the scene,
nor did he turn revengeful to the hate-mongers who have been
hell-bent on defaming him. Modi, on the contrary, had all the bane,
and saved his world, his Gujaratis, his Gujarat from it. If a
parallel is to be drawn, it has to be drawn with how Lord Shiva
drank all the poison that was produced in Samudra-manthan and saved
the world from destruction. "Main Nar-naarayan Neelkanth ban gaya
na ismein kuch sanshay", to describe in the lines of Atal Bihari
Vajpayee. Yes, Modi endured all the venom that the hate-mongering
serpents produced against him, and led Gujarat to security,
sadbhavana and prosperity.
It needs immense endurance, that of a Yogi to survive it all, and
still deliver what Modi has delivered. ‘Gyaan-yog’ and ‘Karm-yog’
are the ways that Bhagwad Geeta describes to attain salvation. No
wonder, Narendra Modi, who at a very young age, left his home with
just a pair of clothes, in search of Truth and God, and lived two
years in exile, has been a practitioner of both. It was he who
brought forth the idea of Ram-rath Yatra of L K Advani and
redefined the shape and momentum of the Ram janmbhoomi movement. It
was he who escorted Murli Manohar Joshi is 1992 to the Lal Chowk of
Srinagar, in those days of heightened militancy, and unfurled the
national flag there, something, Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley
could not do despite their stature and relative normalcy in
Kashmir. And, it is him, who has practiced, “Sukhe Dukhe Same
kritwa” of Bhagwad Geeta, and performed his duties, in spite of the
calumny campaign by powerful people.

It's no wonder that today, Modi stands taller than the tallest of
Indian leaders. A young generation sees him as the future of this
country. They love him. They fight for him on social networking
sites. You abuse him, and they'll challenge you with facts. There
is need to bring all those facts once again in public domain that
media has purportedly hidden or twisted to malign Modi.
