Prime Minister Narendra Modi has met his match in Kanhaiya Kumar, writer Nayantara Sahgal on Monday said as she praised the JNUSU president for his speech at JNU after his release from jail and his subsequent “rational” interviews to the media.

“Kanhaiya Kumar has electrified India with not only his speech in which much passion prevailed, but also in the interviews that he has given to the media where much rationality, much common sense, much quiet measured talk and a command of facts prevailed,” she said here.

“We owe him a huge debt of gratitude for taking us out of that molasses of depression which many of us had fallen into for a while. Mr Modi has met his match in Kanhaiya Kumar,” she said. Ms Sahgal said it was imperative for the countrymen to be offensive, particularly in the current scenario, when “facts of our recent history are being totally falsified.”
