Nitish Kumar hits hat trick of victories in power game in state assembly; Bihar goes gaga over GA- GA

Bihar poll bull stormed today China shop sending seismic waves in Delhi Power corridors in more ways than one. Polls for the 243 member state Assembly,being billed as an acid test for both the Ruling NDA and Opposition in the World’s most populous democracy –known for its frenzied elections- gave verdict in favour of the Mahagathbandhan with 178 seats to it and 58 seats to NDA and nine to others.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress President Sonia Gandhi have conveyed greetings to Mr Nitish Kumar.

The UP local bodies polls where the BJP had not faired well had given a depressing signal to the Party which had pocketed 70 plus seats out of 80 seats there in Lok Sabha polls -2014. It indicates that Days of the Modi magic are tapering out and the party will be desperate now to arrest the trend in the wake of looming Assembly polls in Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal in 2016 , and UP polls in 2017.

Many had said it would have been a cliff-hanger ,but others had not ruled rule out the possibility of a Delhi assembly repeat of a lop sided show where the BJP had lost badly.Thousands of supporters of JD(U) and RJD are on Patna and other districts streets ,bursting crackers ahead of Diwali on Nov 11.

NDA led by Narendra Modi lost amid nation wide criticism of growing incidents of intolerance,now Victory of The Grand Alliance (GA) of Nitish Kumar-Lalu with Congress being a marginal player victory would be be a watershed polls for otherwise highly marginalized opposition ever since 2014 general elections when the Modi wave had upturned apple carts of all.

The results are going to be a major damper for the NDA as stakes were high. loses,it will have ripple effect on the central government in many ways.opposition will leave no stone upturned to repeat show in coming assembly polls and further checkmate the government’s plans on many key policies.

Like yester years when people used to quote BBC for all sorts of news,many were parroting so called inside information of intelligence agencies that the NDA would not cross 100 seats ,many said it would be between 70-85 seats only.

JD (U) leader KC Tyagi had exhuded confidence that they would get 170 plus while Lalu Prasad was saiding after the final phase of polling “Abhi bhi Aagar –Magar mein pade ho, Sweep kar diya hai” ( You are still confused and caught ifs and buts we have swept polls).

The Justice Markandey Katju, ex-Judge, Supreme Court

In his analysis has written last week that the Bihar elections are almost certainly going to be Modi's Waterloo, after which his fortunes are going to rapidly decline. He explains In most of India, including Bihar, most people vote in elections on caste and religious lines. The exception is when there is a wave, which cuts through these lines.

According to him, The BJP had won the May, 2014 Lok Sabha elections on a Modi wave. This wave was due to three main reasons :Modi's magic slogan of 'vikas' (development ) which was perceived as creation of millions of jobs. The Indian youth, whose voting age was reduced from 21 to 18 in 1988, and who are facing the dreadful future of unemployment ( 10 million youth enter into the job market in India every year, but only half a million jobs are created in the organized sector of the economy ), voted en masse for Modi, cutting through caste and religious lines, in the belief that now they will all get jobs.
