Scam after scam, appeasement for vote bank, dynasty politics, inflation and rising unemployment triggered a widespread negative opinion on Mr.Manmohan Singh Government.

The people and I , one among those, craved for a change in Government after a ten years of INC rule .These forementioned pebbles of issues culminated to a boulder on May 2014 general election. People gave a majority mandate to Bharatiya Janata Party and a resounding victory to Mr.narendra Modi. But is all good after 2014? Did the acche din promised by Mr.Modi ever dawned?

The answer is No. Red tape bureaucracy is same as ever before despite moving up the ranks in ease of doing business index. We did have rising Gross Domestic Product (GDP calculation method of it is still in question). Unemployment has definitely not reduced. The MRCA fighter jet deal with Dassault Rafale, proposed back in 2012, is still a talking point even after 6 years. The biggest talking point “Demonetization” etches a black mark in the hearts of people from every walks of life as well as a deep hole in the Reserve bank of India’s(RBI) calculation of how much money has actually returned back into the system.

What the BJP did right ?

“Made in India” campaign is one among which is well received by Multinational manufactures to build their plants in India. When i visited the Frankfurt Central station in Germany, “Made in India” poster with it’s mascot lion welcomed me. The campaign had certainly helped India to receive Foreign Direct Investment(FDI) into India in multiple sectors such as Defence and Automobile. How many of these investements has actually turned into job creation is a question in everyone’s mind.

Goods and Services Tax(GST) is one good thing in economical point of view. Though the implementation of it was messy, it was long time coming. State governments and firms have their fair share of concerns with GST. But in long run, it does have benefits.Strategically India is moving higher as well in the global stage. The government’s Act east policy is bold and successful in forging relations with South east asian nations in terms of trade and military support.

Extensive support for north east states is indeed beneficial for the welfare of people of these states and strategically important for our military in north eastern borders to develop the infrastructure.

Leading from the front in Paris Climate Agreement, Front runner in Global Solar Alliance, Swatch Bhaarat mission and Smart cities development, High speed rail networks, increase in household electrification are things that indeed deserves credit.

Why people are still angry on BJP?

The party’s hunger to stay in power has turned them from once a scam free, progressive, inclusive and strategically focussed governement to a divisive, disoriented one.

India which was once said to be neutral, has been pushed to the sides of USA and other western countries. It’s long standing partner Russia is moving closer in military deals with the arch rival Pakistan. China, the main threat for India in the subcontinent has established a strong hold in Sri lanka, Maladives, Nepal and Bangladesh. No one needs a lesson on how far China has gone deep into Pakistan’s affairs and it’s economy.

In India’s ground, BJP’s forceful implementaion of Hindi into non hindi speaking states has ruffled feathers. Central government’s backroom operation in the state of Tamilnadu is a notable situation to say the least. After the demise of the former Chief minister Ms.J.Jayalalitha, Mr.Amit Shah (National President of BJP) and Mr.Modi controls decisons of the ruling AIADMK party.

Breaking away of Telugu Desam Party(TDP) from National Democratic Alliance(NDA) is another situation, which portrays the need for the political parties in southern states to disassociate themselves from either of the larger parties BJP and INC, to stay alive in upcoming 2019 general election.

The formation of third front is not new to India. But what BJP has managed to do is, for example joining the rivals such as Samajwadi party(SP) and Bahujan Samajwadi Party(BSP) in the state of Uttar Pradesh to withstand against the might of BJP’s electoral machinery.

The partymen and women of INC might disagree but the ability of Mr.Amit shah and his methods has indeed made the State heads like Mr.Amarinder singh of Punjab INC and Mr.siddaramaiah of Karnataka INC to move ahead in making decisions when it comes to their state issues and candidate selection, Rather than waiting for nod from New delhi. This might be fruitful for INC in longterm. Irony is every state’s BJP unit has turned into INC’s habit of receiving commands from New delhi ,that hardly understands the people sentiments and ground reality.

BJP campaigned for a congress mukt bharat, but it seems the BJP is heading for one such and giving rise to INC and Third front back from the dead.
