The BJP national initiative looked for another possibility for the main ministership, and Modi, who had communicated qualms about Patel's organization, was picked as a substitution. Despite the fact that BJP pioneer L. K. Advani would not like to shun Patel and was worried about Modi's absence of involvement with government, Modi declined a proposal to be Patel's vice president serve, telling Advani and Atal Bihari Vajpayee that he was "going to be completely liable for Gujarat or not in the slightest degree".

Summing up scholarly perspectives regarding the matter, Martha Nussbaum stated: "There is at this point an expansive agreement that the Gujarat viciousness was a type of ethnic purifying, that from numerous points of view it was planned, and that it was completed with the complicity of the state government and officials of the law." The Modi government forced a time limit in 26 significant urban areas, gave take shots at-sight arranges and required the military to watch the boulevards, yet couldn't keep the brutality from raising.

The leader of the state unit of the BJP communicated support for the bandh, in spite of such activities being illicit at that point. State authorities later forestalled revolt casualties from leaving the displaced person camps, and the camps were frequently incapable to address the issues of those living there. Muslim survivors of the uproars were liable to facilitate segregation when the state government declared that pay for Muslim casualties would be half of that offered to Hindus, in spite of the fact that this choice was later switched after the issue was prosecuted. During the mobs, cops regularly didn't mediate in circumstances where they had the option.

In March 2008, the Supreme Court revived a few cases identified with the 2002 mobs, including that of the Gulbarg Society slaughter, and built up a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the issue. Because of an appeal from Zakia Jafri (widow of Ehsan Jafri, who was executed in the Gulbarg Society slaughter), in April 2009 the court additionally requested that the SIT examine the issue of Modi's complicity in the killings. The SIT addressed Modi in March 2010; in May, it introduced to the court a report finding no proof against him In July 2011, the court-named amicus curiae Raju Ramachandran presented his last report to the court. (Narendra Modi biography)

Bhandari, and the state get together was disintegrated Despite resistance from the political decision chief, who said that various voters were still uprooted, Modi prevailing with regards to propelling the political decision to December 2002.

At the point when the BKS arranged a ranchers' showing, Modi requested their removal from state-gave houses, and his choice to wreck 200 unlawful sanctuaries in Gandhinagar extended the break with the VHP. Sangh associations did not counsel anymore or educated ahead of time about Modi's managerial choices. Regardless, Modi held associations with some Hindu patriots. Modi composed a foreword to a course reading by Dinanath Batra discharged in 2014, which expressed that antiquated India had advances including unnaturally conceived children. (Narendra Modi biography)

Modi's relationship with Muslims kept on drawing in the analysis. Executive Atal Bihari Vajpayee (who approached Modi for resistance in the fallout of the 2002 Gujarat savagery and bolstered his acquiescence as boss pastor) separated himself, connecting with North Indian Muslims before the 2004 Lok Sabha decisions. After the decisions, Vajpayee considered the brutality in Gujarat a purpose behind the BJP's constituent annihilation and said it had been a mix-up to leave Modi in office after the mobs.

The UK and the European Union would not concede him in view of what they saw as his job in the mobs. As Modi rose to conspicuousness in India, the UK and the EU lifted their bans in October 2012 and March 2013, individually, and after his political decision as a leader, he was welcome to Washington. 

During the approach the 2007 gathering races and the 2009 general political decision, the BJP strengthened its way of talking on fear-mongering. In July 2006, Modi reprimanded Prime Minister Manmohan Singh "for his hesitance to restore hostile to dread enactment, for example, the 2002 Prevention of Terrorism Act. He requested that the national government permit states to conjure harder laws in the wake of the 2006 Mumbai train bombings.

The legislatures drove by Patel and Modi bolstered NGOs and networks in the formation of groundwater-preservation ventures. By December 2008, 500,000 structures had been worked, of which 113,738 were check dams, which energized the springs underneath them. Sixty of the 112 tehsils which had exhausted the water table in 2004 had recaptured their typical groundwater levels by 2010. Accordingly, the state's creation of hereditarily adjusted cotton expanded to turn into the biggest in India. (Narendra Modi biography)

The blast in cotton creation and its semi-parched land use prompted Gujarat's agrarian segment developing at a normal pace of 9.6 percent from 2001 to 2007. Open water system measures in focal and southern Gujarat, for example, the Sardar Sarovar Dam, were less effective. The Sardar Sarovar venture just flooded 4–6% of the territory proposed. In any case, from 2001 to 2010 Gujarat recorded a horticultural development pace of 10.97 percent – the most noteworthy of any state. Be that as it may, sociologists have called attention to that the development rate under the 1992–97 INC government was 12.9 percent. In 2008 Modi offered land in Gujarat to Tata Motors to set up a plant producing the Nano after a famous disturbance had constrained the organization to move out of West Bengal. A few different organizations followed the Tata to Gujarat. 

The Modi government completed the way toward getting power to each town Gujarat that its forerunner had nearly finished. Modi fundamentally changed the state's arrangement of intensity conveyance, enormously affecting ranchers. Gujarat extended the Jyotigram Yojana conspire, in which horticultural power was isolated from other country power; the agrarian power was apportioned to fit booked water system requests, lessening its expense. Albeit early fights by ranchers finished when the individuals who profited found that their power flexibly had balanced out as indicated by an appraisal study partnerships and huge ranchers profited by the arrangement to the detriment of little ranchers and workers.
