The Vibrant Gujarat convention has been a triumph for Chief Minister Narendra Modi who has been promised investments worth some $ 400 billion equivalent to Rs. 15 trillion. Mr. Modi is talking big. He says he is not interested in 8-9% growth that the central government is boasting about but wants growth rates of over 12% for Gujarat. He does not want Gujarat to be compared with any state in India but with South Korea and Japan. The summit is partnered by Japan whose ambassador, Hideaki Domichi said that Gujarat is one of the best states to do business in. In delicious irony Ron Somers, president of US-India Business Council, said that he would like the US to be partner next time. To think that Modi has been denied a US visa on at least two occasions. This is causing the Congress to burn with envy as the gang is at last being exposed as the incubator of corruption that it is. Its excuse for every case of larceny that is exposed is that it is " compulsions of coalition politics " as though it is morally acceptable to cling on to power even if those supporting the Congress are thugs and bandits. Some cases of sleaze, such as Adarsh and CWG, are purely Congress. True to form the free loading Congress pit bull press keeps harping on the Godhra killings choosing to forget the much greater Sikh massacres which have not seen any one of the guilty go to prison let alone be hanged. Yesterday the Supreme Court was forced to ask why when the solicitor general, Gopal Subramaniam informed the court that the government had the details of people with black money but did not want to reveal the details. Hilarious! Who says Indians do not have a sense of humor?
