India's Modi claims he has been chosen by God
New Age Desk 27 May, 2024, 21:00

Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has said he believes he has been chosen by God, as the multi-stage Indian election nears its completion, reports The Guardian.

'I am convinced that 'Parmatma' (God) sent me for a purpose. Once the purpose is achieved, my work will be one done. This is why I have completely dedicated myself to God,' he told NDTV news channel on Sunday.

Modi, who is hoping to win a third term when the results of the general election are announced on 4 June, said that while God guided him to do a lot of his work, he did so without revealing a larger scheme.

'He does not reveal his cards, just keeps making me do things. And I cannot dial him directly to ask what's next,' he said.

Modi has built up a well-established cult of personality within his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, with many supporters unable to name other cabinet members or their local BJP candidate.

The BJP has also actively promoted Hinduism, the majority faith, in every aspect of public life. At the inauguration of the temple in Ayodhya in January, it was Modi, rather than Hindu priests, who played the leading role in the rituals.

Nonetheless, this is believed to be the first time that Modi, who rarely gives interviews and has held no press conferences in his ten years in power, has spoken about himself so candidly as a divine instrument.

'The wily weaving of religion with politics for a country where faith is an inextricable part of everyday life is the BJP's unique selling point. Modi's claim is the logical culmination of the BJP's dominant theme,' the Indian newspaper The Telegraph wrote in an editorial.

Earlier this month, in a television interview in Varanasi, his constituency, Modi made another allusion to divinity. 'When my mother was alive, I used to believe that I was born biologically. After she passed away, upon reflecting on all my experiences, I was convinced that God had sent me,' he said.

@Bilal9

Why are you complaining? Or trying to muzzle content? There is nothing offensive in these posts.

These are fascinating facets about Indian culture that all should know. All part of our desi culture and traditions.

Please let me know what is offensive in these posts and I will take care of it.

Any criticisms are more than welcome. No offensive languages, slurs or name-calling - those will be deleted as you know. And points deducted.

I told @Krishna with Flute in another post that I am willing to discuss Ramayana, the Vedas, Bhajrayana Buddhism, the whole gamut. Bring it on.

This forum should be a place to gather knowledge, not for just gup shup, We have the whatever thread for that.

Please do not call India a "total dump". It is a varied landscape. It is what it is.

I have been to Navi Mumbai, Bangalore and Gurgaon, I have also been to Dharavi.

Mehnati folks trying to eke out a living in the less fortunate parts, and not entirely because of their own fault.

It is the govts. responsibility to give them subsistence jobs, and they failed.

There are 26 lakh Indians (most of then illegal) working in garments factories in Bangladesh.

No one is asking them to leave. Kahan jaiga ye sub log?

Man anybody colored putting down the subcontinent and its culture, whatever it is, is just hurting himself. Trump ka ulla coming online soon and he's just goin fukkin make life hard for the colored people living out west.

Our community needs to get a reality check, and whoever so gotta leave, should leave ASAP, specially if they've got immigration or naturalization dramay goin on.

I'm warning everybody here. Trump will bring in his neo-nazis into the foray and there will be no mercy over the next 4 years for the colored migrants. And the EU toady will follow suit.

It is what it is, whether yous muzlim or not.........if yous colored bhai, good luck.
