THE HINDU FUEHRER ,A PRISONER OF HIS IMAGE

SIT summons to Modi,the mass murder of 2002 Godhra riots.
 So, here is my question why did Modi's career never take off in the eight years that followed the riots/Why is he still no more than what he was in 2002--to quote India Today--a hero of hatred?
     Modi's supporters say that this is fine .In2014,India will have have tired of 10 years of Congress and will look to a strong, assertively Hindu leader.They could be right.But I very much doubt it.Not only do Indians instinctively prefer a centrist leader,who promises peace and stability.
      Modi's failure to hit the national bigtime reminds us that even if a politician has tge support of the people of his own state of a vocal hardcore  of devotees across India and the INTERNET  that counts for little in national politics.
