Modi is not big enough to cause belittlement to the pride of Gujarat. Gujarat is bigger than Modi and existed millenia before his existence! Hence one may condemn his deeds but not link Gujarat to him-it is only 'by the way' association.
In the Indian political history Modi is the only mass murderer. Rajiv Gandhi was equally, perhaps more as he was the PM and has control of Army and has proximity to Delhi' culpable for his tacit approval of innocnet Sikh butherings in 84 than Modi.
Karunanidhi and his opponents are no less. Has it ever occured to any as to why self immolations when their political leader is incarcerated occur only in Tamil Nadu? Karunanidhis and his opponents parties in TN identify hopelessly poor people and offer money and assurance to take care of their families if he/she burns him/herself in public chanting the name of Karunanidhi or MG Ramachandran.
They were no less culpable than Modi.
As Michael Corleone in The GOd Father says to his fiancee "and you think Senators and Governors do not give orders to kill people" to which she replies "How innocent you are mike"
