Ok anything on Agriculture growth from 2% to 10%. This is third time I am asking. Veteran Shivsena leader taking u turn within 12 hrs. Any comment on that. Another very simple question if everything is such a myth which ofcourse you must be knowing better, why exactly have the people voted for him three times in succession as far as I know Indian voters hate one thing and that is chest thumping, the one reason why the brilliant government of NDA was ousted even performing so good due to their show off.
The link is of hindu Newspaper' date=' one of the most credible newspaper. Its upto you to beleive it or not, will post the official numbers when and wherever I get it if there is any official site available. BTW, Montek singh Ahluwalia and President of India gave the state award twice and also applauded for their effort.[/quote'] I wanted official numbers of 2% to 10% - sure Hindu has pedigree but I am not sold on it yet. Please treat it like a discussion - in fact you have more knowledge on this than I do but credibility issues still stand. This document is an official figure from the Gujarat government much like Kent RO saying it is the #1 brand of purifying water. Just in case - I am not accusing the government of fudging numbers; just that I am more skeptical of some claims considering past history.

We have been criticizing Modi for lower HDI in gujarat. But within no time he has started working on these areas. He visits small villages of his state, inaugurates new schools, administer things personally. His entire administration works in tandem. Link All we have on the other side is some old lady flagging off few trucks and goes back to her nest. No responsibility, no actions only taking credit for whatever is happening. So only stupids will believe that they are after Modi because of 2002. They know what he is capable of. From what I learnt is that, he wanted a strong economic growth and a model which will sustain based on solid foundation so that other aspects of overall development (So called inclusive dev) can be achieved. Such growth can be achieved over the sustained period of time. Now that he has achieved economic growth, he can maintain it and work on malnutrition, girl child education, male-female ratio (long term) etc. issues in next 5 years. I wont be surprised if these HDI figures change significantly by next assembly elections in Gujarat. I hope at that time, all his critics gather here to accept it gracefully.
Good on him that he is working towards HDI and I hope he changes something which he has not in the last 9 years or so - he would make a killer candidate.

DM' date='where are your numbers ?[/quote'] If I make a claim X, the onus lies on me to back up that claim X. In this case, I have not made any claims and hence, I have no numbers to share. :winky:

No one said anything about right or wrong - it is status quo. Hitherto Modi is as good as bad as the next candidate for now.

Well someone caught on it! :D

Dude, this document gets presented to executive assembly. Anyways, this is as official as it gets. I heard Abdul Kalam lauded the Gujarat agricultural growth. Beside, I aint representing Guj or Modi. I had seen these documents long ago so shared. You are right, until one sees audited figures, one cannot be 100% sure.

Going by that logic, many such candidates are already ruling the country since 1984. Having said that, my view on Modi is still clear. He should step down and give specific time frame for inquiries to finish, if state and central machinery cannot prove anything substantial in that time frame he can come back in power. I guess, these days morality has no value. BJP is no different.

Firstly, there has the most in-depth investigation against him in where Modi himself has co-operated and he was given a clean chit. Compare that with tons of "allegations" against other high profile names ( Gandhi, Vadra) which doesn't even get a proper investigation. Not to forget, tons of interference and pressure from led by Teesta Setalvad to wrongly influence. If you are on to Moral responsibility, Teesta must be the first one together with the Congress government for its falsified information. Now unless, you want to challenge the very Indian law or look to put him under "Italian" law, there is nothing additional on that. Even Congress understands it very well, there is no proper evidence and thus Congress themselves have now shifted their attention on other stuffs to target "Modi".

Apco Worldwide denies working for Narendra Modi

NEW DELHI: American lobbying giant Apco Worldwide has strongly denied that it works for Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, clarifying that its contract with "only" the state government to promote the biennial Vibrant Gujarat Summit ended on March 31, 2013. :finger: "Currently, we have no working relationship with the government of Gujarat," it said in a statement. Apco's work for the Industrial Extension Bureau (iNDEXTb), the state government's nodal agency for investments, concluded after the most recent Vibrant Gujarat in January 2013, it added. The statement follows reports that credited Apco with feeding the media with "stories of how Modi personally rescued" 15,000 pilgrims from Gujarat who were stranded in Uttarakhand after the recent flash floods. "Apco is not involved in any media activities relating to the rescue efforts," the release said. A senior executive of Apco India said he hoped the statement will end once and for all the constant, albeit wrong recognition the company receives for promoting Modi. The Gujarat government, and not Modi, had hired Apco in 2009 and 2011 to help position the state as a global investment destination, he said, asking not to be named. Apco, one of the largest and best-known lobbying firms in the US, has denied several times in the past any connection to the publicity campaign of Modi. In an earlier interview with ET Magazine, Margery Kraus, founder and CEO, Apco Worldwide, said, "We do not work for chief minister Modi and we do not speak for him." :finger: Modi, the opposition BJP's leading candidate as prime minister in the approaching general elections, is arguably the most visible public figure in India. Apco has been unable to shake off talk of the association with Modi because Vibrant Gujarat happens to be the showpiece investment gathering of the controversial politician. The Apco executive who requested anonymity said the company has good working relations with many state governments - led by the ruling Congress as well as the BJP. "We are in advanced discussions with many states for major contracts," he said.

^^^^^^ It doesn't matter. The haters just listen and see what Congress tells and shows them. Everything else doesn't exist, doesn't matter, is all fraud and instead turns into a personal abuses match. We have seen that in Indian media and even here on this forum.

But I dont know how else to comprehend the fact that 3000 brothers of ours died, hindu, muslim together. What do you expect. Some holy cow should take blame for that? Thats not Raj dharma. We talk of Ram rajya but thats mere a talk, we dont follow it. So morality of that massacre has to be up on the leader and he has to step down as a gesture even if he was not directly/indirectly involved. Leave it, you wont understand it. At some point BJP has to set high standard in politics of the country. I never had any hopes from congress for that matter.
