Needless controversy over Modi’s name


Recently, a controversy erupted over the renaming of the Motera stadium in Gujarat after Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

This is a needless controversy as our PM is truly worthy of having a stadium in his name. Today, he can rightly be called the architect of modern India. In a short span of time, he has taken development across the country to great heights.

Soon a day will come when this leader of the masses will be featured on the Indian currency. He may also receive the Nobel Prize.

He is a great leader who truly understands democracy and the needs of the people.

Yes, our prime minister may have faulted on the promise of depositing Rs 15 lakh in the accounts of every citizen. But one must not lose hope. I feel our PM can still do it and surely will do it.

He is the only hope for the poor in our country. Naming a road or a structure or something else after our prime minister should not be blown out of proportion by the Opposition parties.
