I hate to ask this so bluntly, but: do you know who Narendra Modi is?

Be honest; don't Google.

I have seen his name in some Indian articles, referencing that he is running for PM - and there are vague comments that he is controversial (including with the US).

I did not vote in the poll, because I do recognize the name, but have no understanding of his positions or past - so I clearly do not deserve a "yes".
