Answer in a simple Yes or No and that will determine further course of this thread ..
Fido ji: Let's assume for a moment that Modi was personally involved in the riots i.e he went from house to house setting people on fire. I will still vote for him. so would millions of his believers.
Come May 17th, 2014, Presidents of all nations including Steven Harper, Obama and Arab leaders will call him to congratulate and even invite him to their countries.
If nations have no problem with Modi, i certainly would not have any problem with him.

My take, although unsolicited :
Not that it should be condoned, but there are reasons why events happened in Gujarat in 2002. Let us not pretend and ignore the real elephant in the room, ie., the triggering point for the riots, while we are busy solely pointing the needle of suspicion towards Modi.
We don't know if Congress was directly involved, but the ideology and the climate of suspicion all across India and Gujarat created by Congress over the decades certainly had a leading role to play in the train burning incident that triggered the riots in first place.
Congress was and still is capable of engineering communal riots when it suits them. Remember the early nineties when Congress had just been wiped out in federal elections but was swept into power in several states? The chief ministers of Congress ruled states then began to get too big for their boots, ie. in the eyes of Rajiv and the "high command".
There were simultaneous communal riots engineered in quick succession in several of these states(AP, Karnataka, Maharashtra and I think Gujarat as well). The CM's were cut to size, a couple of them even eased out of office.
The way the riots were covered by MSM dinosaurs, it would shock you today in these days of internet. Not a pip from MSM press about the Congress high command's complicity in the riots. It was the first wake up call that some of us gen Xers got about Indian media establishment, which was obvious even to a very young person.
According to a Supreme court commission(don't remember which one, probably Sri Krishna Commission ), a vast majority of these riots were started by people of a certain persuasion.
And which party was behind these thugs and who has been engineering the riots in the background all these decades? A large number of AAP supporters are the former supporters of this party(Congress) .
Yes, Modi most likely had hands-off approach for the initial couple of days when the damage was indeed severe, and in that sense he is somewhat complicit as he dared not go against a raging public, or else he would probably have been their next target. But thereafter he was ruthless in putting the riots down.
If Modi should be let go, then so should all the Congress leadership as well as the Naxal infested AAP. Less said about the third front Mulayams the better. Modi has to work within the vagaries of Indian politics, just as everybody else. He has been cleared by court of law, the Supreme court no less.
Sorry for the long winded answer, but this is not a simple "yes" or "no" question.
