My Malice and Bias

Dayanand Saraswati (12 February 1824 – 30 October 1883) was a Hindu religious leader who founded the Arya Samaj, a Neo-Hindu reform movement of the Vedic tradition. Dayananda emphasized the ideals of brahmacharya (abstain-ism).  Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati Founder of Arya Samaj Cult Early Childhood Dayanand Saraswati was born on 12 February in 1824 in a Brahmin family in the Kathiawad region (now Rajkot district of Gujarat). His original name was Mool Shankar Tiwari. His father was a follower of Shiva and taught Mool Shankar the ways to impress the Lord by idol worshiping and keeping fasts. On the occasion of Shivratri, Dayanand saw a mouse eating the offerings to the God and running over the idol's body.

Narendra Modi Narendra Damodardas Modi (born 17 September 1950) is the 15th and current Prime Minister of India, in office since 26 May 2014.The prime minister is a Hindu nationalist and a longstanding member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Before becoming the prime minister of India, Mr. Modi was a successful chief minister of Gujarat state. Modi's economic policies (credited with encouraging economic growth in Gujarat) have been praised and his message of economic growth of all of India on the Gujarat model was one of the key factor for his election. His opposition has accused him of not doing enough to stop the Gujarat riots that started as a reaction to burning alive of over 50 Hindu pilgrims in a train my Muslim mobs.

Background Mohandas Gandhi was born in a well-do-do family on 2 October 1869 in Porbandar, a coastal town in the princely state of Porbandar in the Kathiawar
