The
recent victories of BJP in Tripura
and govt formation in NE states like Nagaland and Meghalaya is perhaps the most
dramatic change in Indian electoral history. Add to this the earlier clean
victory in Assam too. For decades,
the NE states were stuck with the Comrats – either in the form of CPM or the
Congress and silently suffered all their lives. No roads, no power supply, no
connectivity to the rest of the country and militants killing people all over.
It’s only since the BJP and ModiSarkar started paying attention to NE after
2014 that they sensed that life can be a lot better too. They desperately needed
change and embraced it at the first opportunity.
But
the NE electoral outcomes don’t
necessarily apply to other states where they have already experienced BJP rule
and a good level of development in the past – states like Gujarat, Rajasthan,
MP, UP or Bihar. This is the reason there have been some upheavals in these
states either in bypolls or lower number of seats in a BJP-stronghold like
Gujarat. In the recent rounds, BJP lost some bypolls in Rajasthan and MP and
the latest losses came from UP and Bihar. Of these, the greatest and most
shocking loss has to be from Gorakhpur
from where CM Yogi has won five
terms in the past. We will get to it in a bit. In the meantime, the thrill and
adrenaline that ran through a filthy, abusive C5M is quite heartening:
All
the media criminals who eternally vomit nonsense about caste-religion in politics are most excited learning Muslim-Yadav
support for their darling prison-mate Lalu is intact. Elsewhere, a NiraRadia-Slave of many years, MK Venu, who is now an inmate at
“TheLiar” holds out a vile threat. That the loss of bypolls in UP is a signal
that investigative agencies must “start
behaving”. What this Comrat confirms is that in all his life investigative
agencies were slaves of his political-Mata Sonia and any other scenario is
impossible. For an abusive filth like Sagarika and her ilk, starved of any
Sickular wins, even dirty Cactus would
taste like Banana. Let them eat!
Let’s
return to the BJP. Nearly six years ago I wrote “BJP – The suicidal bridesmaid”. This was in the context of
BJP playing second-fiddle in all its alliances. I had made the case that for a
party seeking to be a national power, the BJP must assert itself, refuse to
play second-fiddle and go it alone in most state elections, even if it means
sitting in the Opposition. The image in that post that is reproduced again (on
the left) is an artwork called “Black Lotus – the suicidal bridesmaid”. Today,
the BJP stands on its own strength at the Centre and in most states where it is
in power. But the one thing that is
still missing in the BJP approach to governance is “assertiveness”. In the post I referred, I mentioned the vast army
the BJP has been eternally up against:
The
BJP does not have any “ideological” friend or ally. NOT ONE! The allies and
friends are mostly “opportunistic” allies and not ideological ones. In
contrast, the Sickulars and their Comrats are married till death do them apart.
Even the ShivSena is not an ideological friend – it is merely a worn out, rag,
tag and bobtail outfit that flies around like a stunted chicken.
In
the four years of ModiSarkar, the BJP has done all it could to please and suck
up to every Sickular issue than attending to serious issues that its core
supporters face and for which they were voted to power. Hindutva has been dumped in the garbage can and has now become a
taboo for BJP. Ram Mandir finds a mention only during election campaigns. All
that is still fine. The biggest crime of BJP is to continue the Sickular
appeasement policies. What in hell is a nonsensical statement like “Ek haath me Quran, ek haath me laptop”?
Does PM Modi ever have to make such statements about Hindus or others? What is
it that PM Modi seeks from such idiotic statements – cheap applause? And when the Hajj subsidy was withdrawn, it was
promptly ploughed back into some other Muslim-appeasement scheme. There is no
cause to antagonise Muslims but there is no cause to suck up like this either. We are FED UP with this wanton Muslim/Minority
appeasement.
What
exactly did Hindus demand from PM Modi or his Sarkar? NOTHING! All they wanted was that there be more equality in
treatment of all communities. Issues like RTE
are killing Hindu-managed schools, not one step or signal has been given by
ModiSarkar to millions of pleas to attend to the problem. Conversions by the Missionary Mafia continues relentlessly
and visas continue to be given to foreign charlatans who come to India to abuse
Hinduism and convert the poor. PM Modi had promised in his LS campaign that all
illegals will be packed up and sent back. Forget that, now Rohingyas are freely indulging in violence and creating swamps in
JK where they have been planted. Sometimes, the SC plays a hurdle but it was up
to ModiSarkar to bring in an ordinance or Act in Parliament to send a clear
message that “national security will not compromise with any interference”.
There
is a sense of fatigue and boredom with governance it seems. Many BJP supporters are
now tired of the “Vikas, Vikas, Vikas” chant. Vikas is an essential and
permanent thread that runs through our life. It is not a one-time goal.
Therefore, even when ModiSarkar has done exceptionally well in infrastructure,
railways, power supply and areas like housing and toilets, it still generates
heartburn and discontent. And the NorthEast wins are not a “burqa” that can
cover up these heartburns. Many ministers are simply incompetent and are
trundling around like a stock-bowler who has to bowl the last over just to
concede the few winning runs to the opponent. The UK expelled 20 Russian diplomats
and suspended high level bilateral ties with Russia over the suspected murder
of a Russian spy in Britain. But Modi keeps begging other countries to declare
Pak a terrorist state instead of acting. There is a clear lack of courage and
daring in critical daring and the fear of Muslim backlash.
Is
it plain arrogance or a lack of presence of mind? This is what I have called “fatigue”. And in the four years of
ModiSarkar, one thing that really shocks and stuns BJP supporters is the
extraordinary slavery of BJP ministers and members to the media and in
particular with NDTV. Pray what
ghostly or divine powers do the scamsters of NDTV hold over BJP ministers who
constantly want a room at NDTV? This looks all the more sinister when many of
these NDTV crooks have mocked and abused Modi non-stop for many years. It also
mocks thousands of BJP supporters who have spent hours and hours to investigate
and expose NDTV. What compels Modi’s men and women to indulge in romance with
alleged criminals? This too will cost votes and withdrawal symptoms, if not
whole elections:
As
if all that was not enough, the BJP recently purchased a foul-mouthed,
anti-Hindu garbage-can like Naresh Agarwal
from the SP. Political numbers do matter but there was no such extreme threat
of survival that BJP had to make such a purchase. This Agarwal is the same guy
who all BJP members and supporters have trashed consistently without exception.
And the man deserves it. Yet, like with NDTV or Muslim appeasement, ModiSarkar
SLAPS all their supporters with a vile decision like this. The frequent signals
being given to BJP supporters is “you
don’t matter and you can go to hell”. Even the BJP footsies, when there is
criticism, often tell others “go vote
for Congress”. Such arrogance will not pay. The sooner Narendra Modi and
BJP learn this, the better. Don’t even be misled by the nonsense of some who
peddle the TINA factor. The Lotus can also turn black in no time:
The
main vote-segment of the BJP is the middle class and the Hindus. These segments
are not demanding any special favours. Hindus are mostly fine if some
concessions are even to deserving poor classes or even poor Muslims. But to
constantly ignore “social fissures”
and play “Goody two shoes”
does nobody any good. The recent bypoll results can thrill some Sickulars for a
while but I don’t see any reason why it should impact LS2019. Bypoll results
often reflect an “instant” unhappiness with a strongly-voted govt and it
happens often. I am sure when the Sickulars lose Karnataka they will be back to
their Rudaali act with “Eternal
Victimhood Mode” (EVM). The LS2014 majority was won after a long and tough
struggle by BJP, take sound counsel and
make some corrections quickly. It doesn’t take long for the Lotus to rot
and turn Black.
