Modi proves a hit in London, overrides criticism
Vijay Dutt
The Gujarati community in Britain that calls him Chhota Sardar, is apparently confident of the rise and rise of Narendra Modi and he did not disappoint his admirers when he spoke most eloquently at the Wembley Conference Hall in the style reminiscent of Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
Modi is currently in London to promote "Vibrant Gujarat Initiative" for attracting global investors in the state.
The Wembley meeting organised by the Friends of Gujarat proved to be the ideal forum for the Gujarat Chief Minister to talk of the strengths and development of his state and the role he wished the Gujaratis the world over would play in making Gujarat level up with "the most progressive states in the world of the 21st century".
In apparently a very spirited mood and least affected by 200 odd demonstrators shouting slogan and waving placards that named him Idi" Amin" and "butcher of Gujarat", Modi drew rounds of prolonged cheering from a highly enthused 3000 strong audience.
