A Tribute to Ratan Tata: The Real Patriot, Not the Political Illusion

How to Make $100 Billion Without Even Trying

India—a land rich in culture and history, but now home to a select few billionaires who have amassed unimaginable wealth. One man, worth less than $5 billion in 2014, now sits atop a fortune of $101 billion. Another? His wealth has surged from a modest $24 billion to nearly $100 billion. Their secret to success? Not hard work or innovation, but rather "Modi’s blessings," combined with the timely transfer of state-owned assets. And just like that, we have new billionaires overnight.

But amidst this tale of astronomical wealth, there’s the story of a true patriot—Ratan Tata—whose recent passing has left India mourning the loss of a man who genuinely helped build the nation. His organization donated $103 billion, not for personal gain, but to make India stronger. Unlike the current crop of opportunists who have looted India for billions, facilitated by the Modi government, Tata’s legacy stands as one of integrity, investment in science and technology, and national service.

While the likes of Adani and Ambani have feasted on India’s resources, let’s not forget the mastermind who enabled their meteoric rise: Narendra Modi. A man who, with the help of media moguls, sold the country a dream, propped up by a fabricated narrative and a highly questionable academic background. Ah yes, the infamous "Master's degree in Entire Political Science"—a degree no one can find in any university on this earth. Not in India, not anywhere. It’s a phantom credential, one that has been repeated so often that it’s almost accepted as fact, even though the truth remains elusive.

Modi’s rise is a modern-day fairy tale—crafted by clever media spin and bought wholesale by the masses. It’s almost laughable how a man with the education of a 4th grader, whose only real skill was manipulation, managed to fool an entire nation. The media barons, with their polished propaganda machines, portrayed him as a political genius, a messiah of Hindutva, and a savior of India’s economy. Meanwhile, behind the curtain, India’s most valuable public assets were quietly handed over to his close allies, the "businessmen" of Gujarat.

But the story doesn’t end there. Millions of Indians, deeply under the spell of this orchestrated narrative, are now celebrating their own exploitation. They’ve been convinced that before 2014, Hinduism itself was under siege, that Hindus were being persecuted, and that Modi arrived just in time to save them. And so, the focus shifted—from the billions being siphoned off from the country’s wealth to slogans, temples, and a newly constructed Ram Mandir built a few kilometers away from the Babri Masjid. A distraction, some might say, from the real agenda: divide and conquer, and loot.

What’s remarkable is how this deception continues unabated. Modi’s story of Hindutva, bolstered by a degree no one can verify, remains powerful enough to blind people to the obvious theft happening under their noses. A nation duped by a man who couldn’t even present real academic credentials, let alone economic expertise, is now entrapped in a cycle of rhetoric and religious fervor.

The true tragedy? As we bid farewell to a man like Ratan Tata—a true nation-builder who used his wealth for the greater good—we are left with a political system that rewards deceit and cronyism. Tata invested in India’s future; the others? They’ve looted its present and mortgaged its future, with the enthusiastic support of a misled populace.

Let’s be clear: Ratan Tata’s contributions were real, tangible, and deeply impactful. His family has been dedicated to making India stronger for generations, while Modi, with his phantom degree and his billionaire cronies, has sold the country short. And the media? They’ve played their part well, helping a man with questionable education pull off the ultimate con—a narrative of greatness built on the shaky foundation of lies and crony capitalism.

So, while we mourn the passing of Ratan Tata, we should also mourn the loss of our collective ability to see through the deceit. India, it seems, has been robbed—both of its wealth and of its critical thinking. But at least we’ve saved Hindutva, right? If only we had known about this sacred concept before 2014, maybe we could have spared ourselves a few billion.
