Pratidin Bureau

TIME magazine, which published a cover story before the Lok Sabha elections calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi the 'Divider in Chief', has now done a story on Modi with a headline that reads 'Modi Has United India Like No Prime Minister in Decades', weeks after BJP's unprecedented Lok Sabha victory.

Ahead of the Lok Sabha poll results, the TIME magazine had its cover story on Modi whose headline read 'Divider-in-Chief' which drew flak from the party and its supporters.

The latest article, written by Manoj Ladwa discusses a supposedly divisive Modi who not only managed to keep power but increases his levels of support.

"Demonetisation as a short-term pain that led to long-term gain" : He wrote.

Ladwa praised PM Modi and his government for digitization of banks, increased tax revenue and other schemes such as the Jan Dhan Yojana.

Calling PM Modi's policies socially progressive, the writer said both Hindus and religious minorities were benefited from various schemes launched under Modi-led government.
