How many of
you agree that India is really changing under the Modi-led government? Many
agree, many doubt or get incited for debate! Well, the fact is that our country
is indeed changing under the leadership of Shri Narendra Modi, who has been
elected PM twice, back to back. To support my point, I would like to discuss
this book, Truth & Dare – The Modi Dynamic, of Ms. Sanju Verma. She herself
is a famous BJP spokesperson, and you can often find her on TV channels.
Coming to the
book, it basically is bifurcated into two sections, the first one discusses
about Modinomics, and second one focuses on the genius of Amit Shah’s in making
BJP as the best and leading political party in India. Modinomics has become a
generic idea and people from across the world have begun recognizing it for
various development models.
To gain deep
and fruitful insights about as what is Modinomics Unplugged and how it is
beneficial to every citizen of India, one must carefully go through the book.
After the forwards, the very first chapter – The Vibrant Gujarat Model of
Development – talks about the rudimentary economical aspects that work in the
building of Modinomics. It is stated that the roots of Modinomics belong to the
Gujarat model.
Next, you will
get insightful chapters on 10 percent GDP Growth Trajectory, Demonetization,
GST, The Empowerment Tool such as Aadhar and DBT, and great portrayal of Make
in India, Startup India, Mudra, The Modi Era and Fiscal Prudence, Ayushman
Bharat, and much more.
The author has
done commendable research on datasets and stats. It’s possible as she herself
is an economist. Otherwise, many other books on Modinomics just talk about
shallow waters. This one has particularly taken pains to guide curious readers
by providing multi-dimensional facets.
The second
part of the book is rather short and it discusses the rise of BJP under Amit
Shah and it also highlights some other issues that often go unnoticed by media,
like discussing Article 35-A and UCC, a look at the issues of minorities,
Kashmir problem, Mission 2019, etc. It is surprising to note that in Mission
2019 the author already predicted that BJP would win over 300 seats, and it
came out as raw truth on the election results day. Other than Modinomics and
various policies, the book is high on stats, data, and credibility and does not
miss to discuss the deadly Pulwama Attack of Feb 14, 2019.
