A New Book Written by Prof. Ram Puniyani
Narendra Modi: Political Agenda
Ram Puniyani
This book is an attempt to bring forth the truth of Gujarat from most of the angles, social, political and economic. The articles in this volume were written at different points of time, on regular basis, right from the breaking out of violence to the present times, where Modi has become the Prime Minister. It gives the reality of development of Gujarat, the condition of minorities and the nature of autocratic leadership which Modi offers. In popular mind the perception about his ‘strong’ leadership qualities is taking the center stage, while his autocratic and communal aspects are being put under the carpet. This book is an attempt to highlight the type of politics he represents, the agenda he is pursuing and the dangers to Indian democracy.
Writer-Activist Ram Puniyani is Chair, Center for Study of Society and Secularism
