The sameness of the Modi 3.0 govt is a mirageThe new cabinet of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is much the same as his old. It may also pave the way to new leadership within the world's largest political party. The hype around Mr Modi's "Gujarat Model" of development, which had propelled the prime minister to power in 2014, is long over. Even if television anchors don't tire of promoting Mr Modi's personality cult, media owners will. That became clear with Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani, the two Asian centi-billionaires, attending Mr Modi's swearing-in ceremony.
