BJP and Its Election Winning Mantra

BJP is winning elections not because of anti-incumbency or development.

Neither do I believe that EVMs are being hacked.

There is something, which is not obvious and is elusive to common perception.

And that is- BJP is winning because of Congress.

There were (and are) sangh affiliated men in Congress, since the time of its inception.

Okay, the sangh was created 40 years after formation of Congress, but the sangh ideology was there even before its formal inception.

What makes me say so?

Look at 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

BJP won with a massive majority of 282 seats.

How many were ex-Congressmen in this?

116 of them.

Take the recent Tripura elections.

BJP got 1.7% votes in 2013 elections.

It jumped to 41.4% this year. (see chart)

The Left suffered a loss of just 3.4%.

The 35% gain in vote share that BJP got was due to Congress alone.

When the BJP announced its list of candidates for 44 of 51 seats,

ALL of THEM were Ex-Congressmen.

So there were BJP moles in Congress since long.

It’s not that only Congress is infected, other parties too have such moles in them.

There exist such moles in Left bastion as well, which speaks for their fast eroding presence.

These moles in the Left jeopardised the functioning of the UPA government during 2010-14.

So what lies ahead?

Answer is- Not much.

Even if Congress comes back to power in 2019, Democracy in India is already dead.

I say this because politics in India does not work the way it appears.

It’s not Congress Vs BJP.

“Congress mukt Bharat” was another jumla of BJP.

The reality is that-

BJP is Congress yukt today.

It wasn’t a Hindu-Muslim issue either.

That’s another pretext to grab power-political power.

When you have political power, you have the resources of the country at your command.

The capitalist class which spent roughly 30,000 crores rupees during 2014 Lok Sabha elections, wanted a party which caters to capitalist interest.

The policies of the present govt. during last 4 years testify the above statement.

Modi was a Hindutva mascot.

They needed him- for votes. For power.

Once the capture over the resources is complete, they would no longer need him.

Modi would be history in few years.

And if my prediction is correct- in few months.

He would be replaced by a more moderate face.

Coz communalism in the long run would be detrimental to the capitalist class’ interest.

They would need a person who has a moderate image.

Might be even Rahul Gandhi.

However, this political transformation would not be without a conflict with the Sangh.

But then, money rules.

In event of political change (i.e. Congress taking over BJP in 2019), the moles would change sides again.

Modi has paved the way for capitalist.

And if you expect that there would be a policy change if Congress comes to power in 2019.

You’re sadly mistaken.

Let me make it simpler through an equation: It’s merry go round.

Battle of Bhima Koregaon

The battle of Bhima Koregaon on January 1, 1818 has come to a narrative of Dalit assertion against Brahminical oppression; however it was a story of Indian Nationalism standing up to the colonial army of the East India Company.

Dr B.R. Ambedkar in one of his visits to Jaystambh said “Mahars had defeated Peshwas at Koregaon”.

One of the earliest accounts of the battle was published in 1885 in the three volume The Poona Gazetteer, exited by James Campbell, ICS, as part of series of Gazetteers of the Bombay Presidency.

The battle took place at the village of Koregaon situates 16 miles north-east of Pune, where 800 British troops faced 30000 Maratha on January 1, 1818. At that time Pune was under Colonel Charles Barton Burr, by the end of December he received intelligence that Bajirao intended to attack Poona. The second battalion of first regiment Bombay Native Infantry of 500 tank and file under Captain Francis Staunton, accompanied by 300 horse & 2 six pounder guns manned by 24 European Madras Artillerymen left Sirur for Poona at 8 pm on 31st December 1817. They came across the Peshwa’s army of 30000 Maratha Horse across the Bhima river. Fierce fighting followed and as night fell the attack lightened & British got water, by 9 pm the firing ceased & the Marathas left. Of the 834 British troops 275 were killed & the Marathas lost 600.

Narendra Modi- A Chatterbox Prime Minister

Our hon’ble PM is a chatterbox- speaks more & works for the poor less. Besides as a RSS preach arak Modiji used to move around countrywide and organised cultural programmes in villages as a way to communicate Sangh ideology. Any RSS worker would say in those programmes a Praharaj has also to act, rock and perform.
Such programmes were sponsored by the Sangh, now also the Sangh- union of India, is sponsoring his trips, then community was arranging cost of his food and stay now the country is spending money from public exchequer on his trip. 

The Modi government is set to complete one year in office later this month. It is a well-known fact that the national and foreign big corporates spent huge money to bring Modi to power. Though due to the pressure of mass movements the Modi government has not yet been able to serve its masters to their satisfaction, but the general tendencies of the government clearly and unambiguously indicate the path has shown the path of its desire. Modi promised acche din to the people of the country, if voted to power, before the Lok Sabha election last year. 

However, in this one year Modi has plainly revealed that his government is not at all interested in bringing the black money stashed in foreign banks back to the country. What the government is interested in, however, is in grabbing land from the peasants in the name of development by hook or by crook. Peasants are committing suicide all over the country due to the devastation that has beset agriculture. With giant slashes in workers’ formal rights, introduced by the Modi government under the euphemism of ‘labour law reforms’, the condition of the working class is all poised to become more wretched than ever before. The overall buying capacity of the people is continuously going down, and hence the home market is shrinking. The only task of the government in this field, it seems, is to continuously pressurize the apex bank to bring down the rate of interest, i.e., the cost of the capital, at the cost of the common people as it will fuel inflation growth. Assaults on democratic rights and secularism – particularly characterized by vicious attacks on religious minorities – have seen an alarming ascendance ever since Modi’s took up the reins of government. The workers are bleeding, farmers are in distress, communal violence is on the rise, and youths are waiting for jobs as there is no sign of a decent life round the corner. Achhe din, for whom?
