Cut Throat Political
games get underway in India, much to bewilderment of The Prime Minister
Narendra Modi led Government which was still busy to assess import of the
Ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA ) crushing defeat in the Hindi heartland
state of Bihar.
Things are changing at a faster pace than
anticipated as The Ruling BJP veterans 88 year old LK Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi
and Yashwant Sinha, former Finance Minister,Former Union Minister Shanta Kumar virtually raised
a banner of revolt and publicly issued a terse statement which said the “consensual
character” has been destroyed and no lessons were learnt from the Delhi Assembly
poll debacle.
Their statement has come
within two days of the Bihar polls where the BJP got mere 53 seats out of 243 member state Assembly.
The Grand Alliance of Lalu Prasad Yadav’s
Rashtriya Janata Dal, JD (U) Nitish Kumar and Congress bagged three fourth
majority .
Though BJP veterans
did not take name of Mr Narendra Modi or Party President ,but in a well drafted
statement,left no ambiguity that they were taking of the duo only.Words like “A
Thorough review must be done of the reasons for the defeat as well as of the
way the party is being forced to kow tow
to a handful, and how its consensual character has been destroyed.
RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav
,after his much awaited resurgence,has already sounded a bugle for a nation
wide stir against what he described as “communal and fascist designs”.
Now after 50 days,New
year will start and after every six months or so state Assembly polls will be
held in state after state. Within next two years, nine states and Puducheery
will go to polls.
Bihar polls verdict is
a Wake up call for the Prime Minister Narendra Modi led ruling dispensation at
the centre. If they take it lightly like Delhi polls debacle, Time will be
tougher for them .next two years are packed with state assembly polls . In 2016,
polls are to be held in Kerala,Tamil nadu, Puducherry , West Bengal and Assam
and in 2017, UP,Punjab ,Goa,Uttrakhand and Manipur will go to polls.
Upbeat with massive
victory,Mahagathbandhan –the Grand Alliance of Nitish-Lalu –Congress, will not
leave any stone upturned to derail the Modi’s apple cart in other parts of the
country too. Recent events will cast it shadow on coming Parliament
session from November 26. After winning almost three fourth majority-178 out of
243 seats in the state assembly polls,the Grand alliance will stitch more such
tie ups for mounting pressure on the NDA, which trailed with meager 57
seats in Bihar.
The Verdict has proved
beyond an iota of doubt that alliances of varied types and nature can not be
ruled out. Congress which has eschewed its aversion towards alliances in the
current situation ,has virtually managed to make a dramatic come back via the
Patna route.
It has pocketed
27 seats-and is part of the Ruling alliance. Despite having handful of MPS in
its fold, the party had managed to make things tough for the Ruling NDA though
the latter has a resounding majority in the Lok Sabha.
The BJP hopes to
muster strength in the Rajay Sabha after Bihar polls have dashed and it
will have severe implications on a slew of ambitious Bills including GST.
The challenging phase
for the BJP will be in 2018,a year ahead of the General elections,as state
elections will be due in places like
Gujarat,Nagaland,Karantaka,Meghalaya,Himachal Pardesh ,Tripura and Mizorum.
In PM’S home state and Amit Shah’s own ground
,the disontment is building up ever
since 22 year old Hardik Patel, now languishing in Jail on Sedition charges,had
mobilised lakhs of powerful Patel community members in his rally for
reservation to the cast.
In the year of General
election 2019,Elections are due in Arunachal
Pradesh,Delhi,,Chhattisgarh,Rajasthan,AP, Teleangana, Haryana,Maharashtra,
Odisha Jharkhand and Sikkim.Only Jammu and Kashmir will go to polls in 2021.
