Yeah - Swapan is "Da Man" ... also Kanchan Gupta of the same paper. Read this

I guess only Swapan can tell which leader he was talking about ....personally I don't think Swapan was talking about Modi..... More likely L.K Advani

Sorry - did not notice the URL for Kanchan's article was already posted ...

I need more coffee :-(

Swapan is talking about Modi, no doubt. Read the heading of that article - Modify your backbone. It should have spelt out clearly like “Modi”fy your backbone.

More on the Blogger Blocks. The Indian Express reporting it now. Guess the only "extreme religious views" these folks like are the ones that the radical Islamists or the Church espouses
