> India did very well under Congress before his election. Congress, is corrupt to the T. Everyone had enough of these vampires. BJP was the only other viable national party. But I agree the situation is not ideal. I pity the residents of this country they are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

If you are arguing that BJP is any less corrupt, PM-Cares, Rafale deal, electoral bonds and the sudden wealth of Amit Shah's son indicates otherwise https://thewire.in/business/amit-shah-narendra-modi-jay-shah-bjp https://thewire.in/business/amit-shah-narendra-modi-jay-shah... https://www.altnews.in/no-the-wire-didnt-apologise-in-the-jay-shah-defamation-case https://www.altnews.in/no-the-wire-didnt-apologise-in-the-ja...

  > Are you arguing that BJP is any less corrupt ? No, merely trying to explain why BJP was voted into power.

  Congress ruled from 1947 - 2014 for all but about 10 years. I cannot measure the scale of corruption, but an objective assessment of Indian governance would certainly say, which Political party casts a dark shadow. Again, my goal is not misdirection, if BJP/Modi did anything stupid they should face the music. To paint Rahul, his mommy as some innocent by standers of a hawkish regime makes me laugh. What Sonia did to Narasimha Rao was enough for me, to judge what her character or lack of it is.

      care to explain what exactly Modi did? are you talking about some genocide like what Congress did during anti Sikh riots? Or how thousands of Kashmiri Pandits were raped and slaughtered? Or how about chemical castration during emergency Indira Gandhi did? It all happened during Congress rule.

        We're talking about Modi, and what he's done is all over this thread and the news.
