TIME magazine takes a U-Turn, says Modi has "United India"
After the massive election victory of BJP and returning to power, the magazine has come out with a new headline: "Modi Has United India Like No Prime Minister in Decades".
NEW DELHI: The TIME magazine which had a controversial cover story by labelling Prime Minister Narendra Modi "divider-in-chief". After the massive election victory of BJP and returning to power, the magazine has come out with a new headline: "Modi Has United India Like No Prime Minister in Decades".
On Tuesday, the latest article, that has been published on the TIME website, has asked how a "supposedly divisive figure not only managed to keep power, but increase his levels of support?", which was answered with, "A key factor is that Modi has managed to transcend India's greatest fault line: the class divide".
Manoj Ladwa, the author had described the second term of PM Modi as "a victory for meritocracy, and for opportunity, thanks to a slate of welfare policies for the country's extreme poor". He has also highlighted the rise of the Prime Minister from "one of India's most disadvantaged social groups" to be aspirational.
Mr Ladwa, the founder and CEO of Britain-based media company India Inc., which publishes India Global Business had written, "Through socially progressive policies, he has brought many Indians, both Hindus and religious minorities, out of poverty at a faster rate than in any previous generation."
On May 18, the Prime Minister regarding the first cover of the times magazine had said, "Time magazine is foreign, the writer has also said he comes from a Pakistani political family. That is enough for his credibility."
