In Indian, in the recent Lok Sabha (lower house of the Indian parliament) election meetings, many political parties have used religion as a trump card. Religion is a personal affair, not a tool to win elections with. Politics is an uncertain business and luck plays a big role. At Narendra Modi’s recent rally in Varanasi, tens of thousands of supporters turned out to hear him speak. And yet, this is a tough time for Modi. While his well-wishers are confident that he will overcome the hurdle and win this election, many economists and analysts feels his one term tenure is not enough to fulfill his commitments. We will have to wait and see what the Indian people decide.
