Appendix – Modi Magic?

All the 158 sentences – their every word, every punctuation – that make up the article: Modi Magic?, belong solely to Mr Aakar Patel. They have been employed verbatim after screening 79 of his articles. Their juxtapositioning has been done keeping in mind their context and themes that are, broadly: Narendra Modi; BJP; Gujarat; Caste; Middle class; Congress; Sonia Gandhi; Manmohan Singh; and Rahul Gandhi. The article Modi Magic? is ultimately a satire and may kindly be viewed as such.

Here are the links to the articles that contain each of these sentences, numbered 1-158:
