This writer sat down to speak to Norinder Mudi about the major issues of the day -- nationalism, the threat from Pakistan, economic development, state elections and net neutrality.

YS: Hello Mr. Mudi. Let’s get straight to the point to the most important issue of the day. There’s a lot of controversy regarding the chanting of ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai.’ I believe you think it’s important for Indians to chant it. How will you ensure they do so?

NM: …

YS: That’s smart. And what about all this recent tension with our neighbour? There’s routine cross border firing and high levels talks have repeatedly been called off. We’re all wondering, what’s your Pakistan policy? And why do you think Pakistan is such a big threat?

NM: ...

YS: Ah, I’d forgotten about Angel. You’re so right Mr. Mudi. How do you handle India Pakistan cricket matches? I’ve heard some unconfirmed stories about some people not watching cricket in India, what do you have to say to them?

NM: …

YS: Good idea. Speaking of JNU, this Kanhaiya guy is still hogging headlines. What do you think of this JNU thing?

NM: …

YS: Now tell me, everyone is talking about the development of Gujarat. What do you think is the essence of the Gujarat model?

NM: …

YS: Ah yes, Gujarat “model” - we get it. Another challenge you faced was the result of the Bihar election. What was your response to that?

NM: …

YS: That should have showed them. Recently I read that Gurgaon has been changed to Gurugram. What was the logic behind that?

NM: ...

YS: Now tell me Mr. Mudi, what was this whole internet.org tricolour Mark Zuckerberg hug thang all about?

NM: …

YS: Yes but there is so much opposition to it? What’s the plan for overcoming that?

NM: …

YS: Oh okay, cool that answers everything and our country is safe. Now for the least important question. What’s your relationship like with the other current and ex minizterz? I hear you sometimes talk to them. Can you give us an idea of what your chats are like?
