Letters to the Editor

Mr Modi is not in this category

Dear Editor, I write with reference to the article in Stabroek News’ Saturday 16th Edition titled Zombification of political parties and its referencing of PM Modi of India  I write to express my disagreement and actually disgust over Professor Jan–Werner Mueller’s article where he dealt with the current takeover of the Republican Party by Donald Trump and his supporters, however he has  mentioned in an obtuse manner the name of Prime Minister Modi lumping him with the likes of Victor Orban  of Hungary and Kaczynski, former Prime Minister of Poland.
