During the recent Presidential elections, BJP was in a very happy mood since the UPA was having bad relations with its allies. BJP fantasized and had come to a conclusion that many of the allies would support its candidate for the post of President. BJP leaders also expected that the time was ripe for it to stitch alliances for the 2014 polls and got punch on its face, when its own ally Shiv Sena has not supported it and went on to support Pranab and earlier Prathiba. This makes the BJP leaders look more foolish than they are.
A galaxy of leaders, a record of sorts for working closely with the Congress and for the benefit of Congress has destroyed the party. The lack of vision among its top leaders for building the party where it has no strong existence has made it a laughing stock in some states. The building of party in the south is a glaring example of the failure of the central leadership to promote its leaders and to ensure that the party grows in all states.
The BJP worked with Congress to destroy its first South Indian government led by BSY and made way for Congress to come, even after a lot of good work done by BSY. Fate has its own plans for people who work overtime to deny the rights of simple people. The Super Power of the BJP has been more willing to accommodate Congress demands than the demands of his party workers as the time went by. If BSY government was supported by Delhi leadership then BJP would have been in a much better position for 2014 elections in the south.
Past cannot be changed, but future course can be set with a proper vision and hard-work. A leader has to have a vision and a strong sense of ownership, else he will be very malleable by external forces. The BJP is blessed with huge set of people who have very good leadership skills and its many CMs are good leaders. The most aggressive of them all Modi, has been selected for reasons unknown to few to lead the BJP in 2014 elections. The party cadre, a majority of them are happy with the BJP decision after a long time and as by the rule of nature, there should be some disgruntled voices too.
This set of grumbling voices should be in lesser numbers who can act as the brakes for a overspeeding, over confident Modi juggernaut. The opinion polls show that BJP is set win big in this 2014 elections and many of the leaders are very happy externally, but internally there is a doubt about the opinion polls. The truth of opinion polls in 2004, 2009 are used by the grumblers to hold down the Modi Engine to earth and make them to work harder to ensure more votes for the party. The grumblers whoever they are in BJP should be appreciated for all their negativity to put the other cadres in reality.
In any elections there are many parties that are contesting to win and in 2014 it is BJP VS Rest. Many of the regional parties have allied with BJP, Congress either in their states or at the Centre for sharing or benefiting from the ministerial posts. How much good has come out of such alliances is to be analysed by statisticians and the result can be very tricky and is not a important. The only important thing is to stay in power at any cost. This concept has been perfected by the Congress.
Congress could get the support of BSP, SP and stay in power. Congress can hound BJP to sack its CM in Karnataka and destroy the party electoral prospects in the state. Congress could prop up PRP, AAP to reduce the vote share of other parties. The tricks with Congress are many and with a fool like RaGa leading the party is only a cover-up to show a innocent and idiotic appearance. The Gandhis are half-intelligent and the knack of winning elections hence has to come from outside.The external forces that are trying to put Congress back to power again and again are very obvious. The forces don't want a resurgent India.
A huge mandate Congress acquired due to sympathy has been wasted by the party to set India on the path of progress. There are some works that should be done by the government unlike AAP which did nothing during its 49 day period of governance. All other parties which have been power have taken decisions for setting up industries, starting projects, giving out doles to citizens, taxing people, taking loans from foreign banks, controlling CBI, making family members very rich, etc. But there are things that are not very common but need to be done by government like connecting various parts of country with roads, railways, air ways, connecting rivers, creating green cover and protecting wildlife, building defence facilities, improving the conditions of the soldiers, reforming the laws of police, judiciary, etc.
Few parties can claim to have done extraordinary things for the improvement and other have simply done the regular works. Those leaders who have vision think for the future and do extra work so that the present condition is set to match the future needs. A stitch in time saves nine. But there are leaders who want to take India back to Stone Age. The citizens despite knowing everything have been fooled by the illusion called congress and the BJP has more than once fooled by the illusion too. Illusion called Congress has to be rid from this land for making long term progress, peace and prosperity of this land once called Bharat.
BJP has still a very long and hard way to travel to win the 2014 elections ans Congress has not yet started playing.
