Views remain divided on whether Modi's leadership style
will help or harm him if he enters national politics. In public
appearances, Modi can be charming and likeable. By all
accounts, however, he is an insular, distrustful person who
rules with a small group of advisors. This inner circle acts as
a buffer between the Chief Minister and his cabinet and party.
He reigns more by fear and intimidation than by inclusiveness
and consensus, and is rude, condescending and often derogatory
to even high level party officials. He hoards power and often
leaves his ministers in the cold when making decisions that
affect their portfolios. His abrasive leadership style
alienated much of the state BJP leadership in 2005. He was able
to quell their subsequent rebellion by branding them as corrupt
opportunists who were angry because he denied them the tools of
political patronage and corruption (ref C).
