amiret Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 The PM is not above the law. He should hand over his Garish gift to the treasury. In June 2014 , The Home Ministry reissued the code of conduct for ministers that was introduced by former prime minister Manmohan Singh. When it comes to accepting gifts during official trips abroad or from foreign dignitaries in India, the code of conduct allows the minister to retain symbolic gifts but divert all other gifts valued above Rs 5,000 each to the toshakhana. The minister would have the option of purchasing such gifts by paying the difference between the value as assessed by the toshakhana and Rs 5,000. PM Modi should follow the code of Conduct , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there are personal gifts received by Narendra Modi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiret Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 It is sad to see modi cheergirls engaging in false reasoning to justify every transgression of their political masters. Unfortunately in our education system , students are not taught how to spot the logical fallacies in their own arguments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asterix Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 TBH, why take gifts personal or otherwise? You never know when a controversy can generate... If not for that Media highlighting the Pin-Strip, Modi wouldn't have auctioned it for charity... Why take chances? Why give ammo to others? Should turn down any personal gifts by random people... Now the guy who gifted the suit is going around giving interviews... Why take chances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is quite possible that this suit or its cloth was a personal gift which does not fall into this category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asterix Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 He auctioned items for charity before as well' date='only problem is media targeted him for suite this time.End of day money is going to good cause.[/quote'] Media will target if he's wearing a personal gifted suit in a media crazy event instead of a private wedding (That suit was given on the occasion of a wedding). If media hadn't created this issue, we wouldn't be witnessing the auction of the suit today... He does auctions his stuff periodically for good cause, many people know that... All I'm saying is that he is in immense media focus and he needs to be careful... It's these type of nonsense and bytes by fringe elements which is creating a bad image of him... I was also hope (against hope) that he will atleast reign in some vocal fringe elements, like Sakshi etc. If he can't do that due to political compulsions in UP then should effing deluge the media with news regarding all sorts of growth related developments... Instead of being on Frint foot, he's continuously being in backfoot... Soon he will embark on another set of foreign visit thus enabling opponents to harm him using 'thousands of small cuts'...

As someone said, he turned the lemon into lemonade. He was forced to do that. Not sure if he can boast about this auction, in public... Why do all these things? What was the need to accept all these gifts and even if he's accepting, why flaunt it in public? Just wear it in private events, if he's so fond of these type of suits.. I agree all these are zero controversies, but you can't beat perceptions once it gets developed... Better don't allow perceptions to harm you...
