Modi Sarkar is under severe criticism from members of Indian Parliament. Opposition parties in Lok Sabha moved no-confidence motion against Narendra Modi. Although Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is considering Modi a hero and a true nationalist who has changed the fate of India – brining good name at international level, increasing its defense production, etc. – but in the camps of Congress, members are lamenting him.

This move against BJP by Congress seems more of political nature than genuine one. BJP, on the other side, has termed the motion futile and it indeed proved true later on. It seems majority of India seems ebullient over Modi’s way of governing India. Overall its economy improved, ties with America, Russia and even China improved.

Modi, an Indian Nationalist

Majority of India considers Modi a true patriotic national and someone who can express national viewpoint at international forums more efficiently than any other leader from Congress or other opposition parties. The fame that Modi enjoyed not only in India but also around the world is worth noticing, especially keeping in view his background. There was a time when Modi was banned from travelling to America as he was allegedly involved in Muslims’ massacre in Gujarat.
