Book excerpt: Narendra Damodar Modi created history by becoming the first non-Congress leader to have secured an absolute majority in the Lok Sabha, the key lower house of the Indian parliament. His high decibel election campaign with its aspirational rhetoric backed by his track record in Gujarat, has unleashed unprecedented expectations both within India an abroad.This book, (by an author who has closely observed the rise of Modi from close quarters,) addresses the tough question whether Modi will deliver on his promises and take India to a higher trajectory of employment generation and economic growth. It does so in three ways. First, by tracking ideologies and ideals that have driven Modi forward in his undoubtedly remarkable journey. Second, by critically examining Modi's track record in Gujarat to separate myth from reality. Third, by evaluating as rigorously as possible his performance during the first eighteen months as Prime Minister.Thus, the book makes an objective assessment of Modi's chances to tackle the multiple and formidable challenges that India faces generating 12 million job opportunities per year needed to productively employ its young and impatient population.The book explores the efficacy of Modi's approach to structural reforms and governance. This is now being questioned especially after Delhi and Bihar election results. Can his approach take India forward towards completing its triple transitions (economic, social and political) that it has audaciously chosen to pursue simultaneously. Will Modi, having moved to Delhi, confine himself to replicating the Gujarat model or will he go beyond the ordinary to fulfill his historic mandate. The book tries to answer this question that has implications far beyond India.

Book excerpt: For nearly four years, Arvind Subramanian stood at the centre of economic policymaking in India. Through the communication of big ideas and the publication of accessible Economic Surveys, he gained a reputation as an innovator. Through honest pronouncements that avoided spin, he became a figure of public trust. What does it entail to serve at the helm of the world's fastest-growing economy, where decision-making affects a population of more than a billion people? In Of Counsel: The Challenges of the Modi-Jaitley Economy, Arvind Subramanian provides an inside account of his rollercoaster journey as the chief economic advisor to the Government of India from 2014-18, succeeding Raghuram Rajan as captain of the ship. With an illustrious cast of characters, Subramanian's part-memoir, part-analytical writings candidly reveal the numerous triumphs and challenges of policymaking at the zenith, while appraising India's economic potential, health and future through comprehensive research and original hypotheses. Charged with the task to restructure an insecure and fragile economy, Subramanian's trusteeship has seen the country through one of the most hotly contested and turbulent periods of economic governance and policymaking in recent decades-from the controversial recall of 85 per cent of circulated currency during demonetization to a complete overhaul in taxation with the introduction of the GST. Subramanian also addresses the overleveraging of public-sector banks, the fraught links between the state and private sector ('stigmatized capitalism'), the changing relationship between the state and the individual, and the ever-pervasive, life-threatening issues surrounding climate change. Recognized as one of the Top 100 Global Thinkers according to Foreign Policy magazine, Arvind Subramanian's Of Counsel: The Challenges of the Modi-Jaitley Economy is a deep-dive into the man, the moments, the measures and the means.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela are not born every day. They are the products of the cumulative thinking of a society for decades and even centuries. Ignoring such leaders is no act of wisdom. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, is a similar product of the past and present cumulative thinking of the people of India and their vision for the future. Perhaps there is no other Indian politician who has braved more coordinated attacks from the legislature, executive, judiciary and the media than PM Modi. Yet he has done the unimaginable by changing the direction of the wind taking the country from the disastrous path of mis-governance, corruption and calamity to transparency with a strong and stable good government; from dejection to hope; from shame to honor. If you are interested in Indian politics, economic and developmental policies, business opportunities, academia, terrorist threats to its sovereignty and people, media working, world peace, non-violence, elections, democracy and administration of justice, then this book is a must read for you.

Download or read book Modi The Challenge of 2024 written by Minhaz Merchant and published by Manjul Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Opposition’s 26-party Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) aims to pose a serious challenge to the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the 2024 Lok Sabha election. Despite the coalition leaders’ ideological differences and regional rivalries, their overwhelming intent is to prevent Narendra Modi from becoming the first Indian since Jawaharlal Nehru to win three successive five-year prime ministerial terms. The 2024 Lok Sabha election could prove historic. If Narendra Modi wins a third successive five-year prime ministerial term, he will be the first Indian leader to do so since Jawaharlal Nehru. In this sweeping account of events leading up to the 2024 General Election, Minhaz Merchant analyses how Modi has shaped Indian politics, economics and culture during his decade as prime minister. The book examines whether the Opposition’s strategy to present a united front can derail the BJP’s juggernaut. For example, can Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and regional satraps in Opposition-ruled states put aside their differences? Minhaz Merchant has met and interviewed Modi several times since 2012. The author analyses Modi’s policies across key domains: geopolitics, economics, technology and social reform. Broken up into ten broad sections and thirty-one chapters, the book decodes Modi’s evolution over the past decade from a regional leader to a global statesman.
Download or read book Modi s India written by Christophe Jaffrelot and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting account of how a popularly elected leader has steered the world's largest democracy toward authoritarianism and intolerance Over the past two decades, thanks to Narendra Modi, Hindu nationalism has been coupled with a form of national-populism that has ensured its success at the polls, first in Gujarat and then in India at large. Modi managed to seduce a substantial number of citizens by promising them development and polarizing the electorate along ethno-religious lines. Both facets of this national-populism found expression in a highly personalized political style as Modi related directly to the voters through all kinds of channels of communication in order to saturate the public space. Drawing on original interviews conducted across India, Christophe Jaffrelot shows how Modi's government has moved India toward a new form of democracy, an ethnic democracy that equates the majoritarian community with the nation and relegates Muslims and Christians to second-class citizens who are harassed by vigilante groups. He discusses how the promotion of Hindu nationalism has resulted in attacks against secularists, intellectuals, universities, and NGOs. Jaffrelot explains how the political system of India has acquired authoritarian features for other reasons, too. Eager to govern not only in New Delhi, but also in the states, the government has centralized power at the expense of federalism and undermined institutions that were part of the checks and balances, including India's Supreme Court. Modi's India is a sobering account of how a once-vibrant democracy can go wrong when a government backed by popular consent suppresses dissent while growing increasingly intolerant of ethnic and religious minorities.
