Mr Modi is a star in the US. How sad is that?

Prime Minister, Modi received rapturous applause from around 18,000 Americans of Indian origin at Madison Square Garden last night. But why? He talked of little things, such as opening bank accounts for every family, about cleaning the Ganga River, making India clean and building toilets. Stuff that people in other countries take for granted. He even joked about having little aspirations because he used to be a humble tea seller. His desire is that every family in India should have its own residence by 2022. That is his only big dream. The crowd loved it, chanting " Modi, Modi " and " Bharat Mata ki Jai ". Why? For decades Indians have been ignored, at best, or humiliated, at worst, by people of western countries, especially the Americans. That is why Non Resident Indians were some of the most virulent critics of India. An extremely repugnant official of the US Embassy in Delhi engineered the sexual assault of Devyani Khobragade with nothing to gain except humiliating an Indian diplomat. New York City Police baboons have paid $225,000 to Krittika Biswas for brutally assaulting her when she was just a child. They would never dare do that to any Chinese. Now at last maybe, just maybe, NRIs will find something to boast about. Sadly, India's history is one of foreign invaders conquering our land with the help of local scumbags. Someone has deliberately engineered a communal clash in Gujarat, the home state of Modi to give ammunition to western propaganda channels. All newspapers and TV channels slavishly echo western lies about Modi being responsible for the death of a handful of ' minorities ' in Gujarat in 2002 but fail to highlight tens of thousands of the same minority being slaughtered by indiscriminate bombing by the US, UK and France. It is as if we have accepted their right to blow up any number of civilians at will and then dismiss them contemptuously as ' collateral damage '. To fellows sitting in their comfortable armchairs in an air conditioned office in Nevada, controlling drones in Afghanistan, it is the same as playing a video game. If they blow up a wedding party, killing 40 people just giggle, say oops and carry on playing. Our news channels should be interviewing the victims, highlighting the genocide going on, to expose the shameless hypocrisy. But they don't. Why? Because they love to travel to the US and their children maybe studying there so just shrug and kowtow. A study has alleged that Indian pharma companies knowingly supply substandard medicines to African countries. There is an American name, what seems a Pakistani, a Chinese and an Indian name among the authors. While a vast majority of Indians are yearning to be proud of the nation a sizable number is actively working to destroy it. How sad is that?
