THE MAN OF THE MOMENT: Narendra Modi
The
book THE MAN OF THE MOMENT: NARENDRA MODI by M V Kamath and Kalindi Randeri was
published by VIKAS in 2013(The copy before me is September 2013 reprint).
The title, in a way, is
misleading. The content of the book goes much beyond Narendra Modi and takes us
to several aspects of ‘Gujarat Model’ and its Indian context.
About Modi, I would like
to quote from a letter Professor B M Hegde wrote to him in 2012 after the
Gujarat election victory(The letter appears at page 219 of the book):
“I had the good fortune
of meeting you once in the past for a prolonged period of nine hours at a
stretch…You struck up a pleasant conversation and I could realize that you had
the good of the people at heart…”
