Not at all. He actually provided millions of toilets, thousands of kilometres of road and rail, electrified almost all India, help opened bank account with insurance to all Indians, and many things more. This groundwork will make him win the election. This air strike is just "sone pe suhaga".
- dpacmittal 8y agoSurprised to see his IT Cell active on HN as well.
- ai_ia 8y agoSo, anyone who claims that Modi is good for India, must be a paid stooge?
- throwawaysea 8y agoPlease don’t accuse others of being shills or otherwise malicious actors without evidence. This is against HN’s guidelines. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- ulam2 8y agoThis. This is a problem with lot of Indians these days. They can't digest someone can genuinely appreciate positive side of modi or the current government. No one is perfect. Supreme court did not convict modi for 2002. Respect the judiciary.

- mayankkaizen 8y agoI work in Power sector in India. The claim he electrified all the villages is pure lie and publicity gimmick. Much of Rural electrification work was done under RGGVY scheme (Congress) . Only minor and finishing part was completed under DDUGJY (BJP). Also, his original claim was 100% electrification. I have worked in Ladakh region of JK state which is most inaccessible and backward area and I can tell you that there are many areas in Ladakh which are still unelectrified.
- ulam2 8y agoPower sector in India employs more than 1 million people. Would they vote for modi if what you say is true?
- mayankkaizen 8y agoIt depends. Though power supply is a crisis in India, no government ever came into power or lost power because of it. Most of his supporters are ultra-nationalists/anti-muslims/anti congress. You can guess only power issue isn't going to decide the voting preference. There are many issues at play. Infrastructure is the least important of them.
- iamgopal 8y agoNeither he, nor me, claimed 100 percent electrification. Second, electrification is not only wiring to endpoint but also production and distribution capacity improvement, which actually happened in his regime.
