Om Namo! Patria congratulates Narendra Modi

"India has won, good days are about to come!" 
The lame-duck 49th Congress passed a resolution congratulating Narendra Modi on his election as India's Prime Minister and wishing him all the blessings of the Devas and Devis as he goes to New Delhi to head the new government in India's Lok Sabha (parliament). The former Chief Minister of Gujarat led the pro-Hindu Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to a resounding victory over the Congress Party, the legacy party of Nehru and the Gandhi's (Indira, Rajiv, Sonia, Rahul, etc., who of course are no relation to Mahatma!) that had ruled India almost continuously since independence in 1947.

Like the SRM in Patria, Modi's BJP campaigned hard on promises to revive India's economy and re-establish India's Hindu identity. However, many Indians still have profound concerns over Modi because of claims he did little to stop communal riots in Gujarat in 2002 that killed thousands of people, mostly Muslims. The liberal parties in Patria such as the Social Democrats and Chakras also express some concerns, but in general Patria welcomes the change in government in the macro-world's largest democracy.

Narendra Modi is affectionately known as "NaMo", as in the Kripalu guru mantra Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya!


The leader of India's BJP gets some face time with the leader of Patria's Amrita Party.
