IF the tide of politics turns the
table, will Gujarat and Gujaratis be again instrumental in choosing the new
Prime Minister of India. It may not be far fetched to say that the political
survival of Amit Shah and Narendra Modi depends on the outcome of the Gujarat assembly
elections. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi too has realised this fact. As per
sources, Rahul has adopted a two-fold strategy. He has activated himself in
Gujarat and is also working on another front of Non-Resident Indians, a core
constituency of Mr Modi. The Indian diaspora has all along been clamouring for
attention and Modi gave a voice to them even without visiting with a vast
network of Gujaratis. But all Gujaratis or members of the Indian diaspora are
not Modi supporters. Rahul has realised this and recently visited the US to
cultivate the attention-seeking diaspora. Gujaratis across the world are very
active in business and they dominate in most of the areas of economy in their
respective abodes. Gujaratis also dominate and dictate the politics sitting
across the border. Most of the social media supporters of Modi are the members
of Indian diaspora. As per the plan, Rahul will tour across the world and
mobilise the Indian diaspora and expose Modi and his policies. Surprisingly,
the Chanakya of the plan is none other than the Gujarati Sam Pitroda who is a
mentor of Rahul Gandhi. Sam has bigger plans for Rahul in the days to come.
Wait and watch.
