The landslide victory of Modi in the Parliamentary election,
sweeping the UP has been forgotten so soon. So will the results of Delhi now.
Though people have long memory, media wants only 'current news'
The vote share of BJP is totally disproportionate to the
number of seats it won. One of the reasons was Congress taking away the voters
who were not enchanted by AAP.
Secondly, you will remember some flash news carried out by
all media and repeated ad nauseam after the parliamentary elections. First
bunch was exhortations of Sangh Parivar and VHP members. Their similar comments
which went totally unheeded by media, found eager journos and TV anchors
lapping up their vomit. The PM did what he had been doing in this context. Just
ignore them to their natural death. After all these years of campaign they have
reached nowhere and the PM did not want to excite the cadre by condemning them
openly or even responding to them. But the media had nothing else to talk about.
If PM had condemned it, they will blow it up as PM disowning his own supporters
and the Muslim community will rejoice it as well deserved condemnation, which
only would have strengthened these saffron gang. Even his slight admonition was
blown up, making him go silent. The RSS wanted to show its strength and its
mouth piece Sakshi 'Maharaj' publicly challenged that they were strong enough
to pull down the govt which they had won for Modi. He was not shown his place
by the PM and all this too too mein mein
helped AAP. RSS did not help BJP in Delhi election as much as it used to
without asking just to strengthen its hand for the forthcoming State elections.
But more than that media had forgotten all about the plans in the anvil for
development and when it talked it was only to ask where is development.
What is in store? If PM goes all out to help AAP expecting
its support in governance, he will be politically mistaken. AAP will shout from
the roof top that PM had no alternative. At the same time if he holds up their
extravagant doles, they will tell people they had done what they promised, it
is only the BJP which is taking revenge! Both ways they will expect to win
Bihar and on and on. Let's hope opposition parties do not join AAP. It will
just be like blinding an eye to spite the face!
I hope the PM will keep in his hand political decisions also
instead of depending on Amit Shah too much. Shah's first decision of not
holding Delhi election immediately after Parliamentary election was won. Many
were surprised he did not know the first axiom of war: hit the enemy while he
is down! The Delhi election was announced a month back, still he planned his
sons marriage right at the height of election. Does Shaw think that his work is
over for ever, having won the UP elections?
As long as Rajya Sabha majority is also in pocket, PM cannot
afford to rest or leave things to others for decide. I am sure once the budget
is out by month end, his stature will start shining again!
