The State of Gujarat

Gujarat will vote a week from now. Five years back, Narendra Modi won by a huge margin due to a highly communally divided society. It was greatly disappointing that Gujarat chose to elect a man who carried out a massacre. The Sohrabuddin case is the latest incident in which he seems to have publicly admitted resorting to unlawful and unconstitutional measures, as a chief minister. A civil society should insist that Modi be tried for all these crimes in a court of law, let alone elect him yet again to office. As chief minister of Gujarat, he has only brought shame upon Indian people. I strongly urge the people of Gujarat to vote against the Modi and his BJP.

This editorial from Indian express is definitely worth a read.
