“The ultimate measure of a
man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he
stands at times of challenge and controversy.” ―Martin Luther King, Jr.
India’s Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra
Modi is an expert in converting threats into opportunities. A few weeks ago,
there were protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National
Register of Citizens (NRC). Some of the States in India have passed resolutions
against their implementation. With the onslaught of COVID-19, things have changed
and the attention has been diverted to combating Coronavirus. Modi proposed 14
hours Janata Curfew which drew the attention across India and elevated his
image globally. He involved the people in the fight against COVID-19 and
diverted their attention from various major issues including economy and
unemployment.
On 14 February 2019, a convoy
of vehicles carrying security personnel on the Jammu Srinagar National Highway
was attacked by a vehicle-borne suicide bomber at Lethpora in the Pulwama
district, Jammu and Kashmir, India. The attack resulted in the deaths of 40
Central Reserve Police Force personnel and the attacker. The entire nation was shocked
and saddened. He converted this threat into an opportunity by conducting
surgical strikes in Pakistan and used the public sentiment to win the 2019 elections
with a huge majority.
Modi has a list of great
advisers who advise him on the right lines and he makes decisions as per the
situation. Real leaders emerge during tough times, especially during the global
crisis. Modi is a motivational leader and decisive leader who makes decisions
fearlessly. He is a leader at all times
including war and peace, unlike Winston Churchill who was only a wartime hero.
Although COVID came out with
several challenges it connected all Indians and united them into one platform
emotionally. The Indian government announced a 21-day lockdown to stop the
spread of coronavirus. Thanks to Modi for uniting all Indians into one platform
and winning their hearts. Jai Hind!
“When the going gets tough,
the tough get going.” —Joseph P. Kennedy
