A sequel to my morning post on the hysteria I experienced at Times Square, here are a few more live snippets to help you understand my point. The atmosphere resembled a movie theater where the crowds would go berserk at the first glance of their favorite hero. Crowds chanted Modi, Bharat Mata ki Jai, Vande Mataram.. and also a few more amusing lines (not to mention here). I was moved by the display of patriotism and the very high expectations people, including self, have from this man and his Government. The best part of the day was the singing of our national anthem Jana Gana Mana.... along with this maddening crowd and in the midst of Times Square. And by the way, the people whom you see huddled up in the pictures are actually listening to Mr. Modis speech on their mobile on the specially arranged toll free numbers.
