Terrorists should, logically, be quaking in their boots with such a formidable prime minister in office. Mr Modi’s challenger, Rahul Gandhi, on the other hand, has offered a refreshing counter-narrative on the question of strength. Mr Gandhi was, in fact, offering proof of the prime minister turning India’s traditional areas of strength into weaknesses. There is an additional difference between Mr Gandhi and his opponent. Unlike Mr Modi, Mr Gandhi is humble enough to recognize that a nation derives its true strength not from an elected prime minister but from its people.
