Our CM & party resurrected BJP in Delhi
Free Thinker *
Whether you believe it or not, the divine nectar which was brought by Sri Biren and his cabinet colleagues from Kumbh Mela perhaps revived the BJP in Delhi; now the Party has come back to power after 26 years. They had a holi dip a few days before the Delhi-vote counting.
Actually the amrit which was churned out at Kumbh by Modiji on 5th Feb, the polling day of Delhi was being collected by Biren Singh and party on 6th Feb and came to Delhi; the outcome is now before all of us. The remaining amrit has been transported to Manipur for peace, unity and of course for any exigencies inside the Assembly after 10 Feb.
There are other theories regarding the fall of the Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) in Delhi. Some political pundits are of the opinion that in the last 10 years APP has lost its credibility.
They came to power to clean the system but they themselves became filthy; Delhi liquor-gate was an example; and CM’s prodigal bungalow was another. Some maintain that they lost because they failed to deliver in some crucial areas like supply of potable water, slum management and non-regularization of unauthorized colonies.
However one darubaj says APP lost because of their betrayal to the drinkers. If they continued with the same daru scheme - their victory was certain. They could not comprehend the commitment of the alcohol consumers. Despite the scandal or corruption charges they should have continued with the same policy. They lost a golden opportunity to continue in power, he added.
Another main reason for BJP’s victory is Nirmalaji .She made two important announcements just before the Delhi election. First, the announcement for the setting up of the Eight Pay Commission has stolen the hearts of the babus and bureaucrats in the Capital City. In fact, lacs of government employees live in Delhi. They are happy with this announcement.
But the game charger came on 1 Feb, Budget presentation that there will be no income tax up to 12 lacs. This announcement had stolen the soul of the middle class including middle class people of Delhi which constitute 60 percent of its population.
Then came Modiji, the greatest hypnotizer of the country. On the day of polling in Delhi – he was performing the holi dip in Sangam , Prayagraj. The dip was so sacredly presented nationwide rather worldwide – though particularly meant for Delhi.
Perhaps all the TV channels and social media handlers might have been requested to air the same repeatedly till 5 pm or the last minute of the polling. All those who believe in Sanatan Dharma and the Kumbh Mela might have been mesmerized by the holi act of Pradhan Mantri on 5 Feb.
It was reported somewhere that Sangathan organized thousands of microscopic meetings in the drawing-rooms and small places in every nook and corner of Delhi. This is the most significant contribution leading to the victory of BJP. During the last General election there was a serious communication gap between the Party and Sangh. After the election they sat together and patched up.
Then with the strong support from the Sangh BJP kept winning Haryana , Maharashtra and now Delhi. BJP leadership may agree or not the micro management of the Sanghathan is par excellence. That is why other Parties are jealous of the Parivar not because of its ultra nationalistic ideology but because of their maneuvering capacity at the grassroot level.
Another significant factor for the fall of APP was their CM’s extravagant bungalow .BJP must be very happy about this bungalow; in fact it proved to be good election ammunition for them. They kept spreading the news in Delhi and around saying that the Aam Aadmi Party leader is not aam aadmi – he is a khas aadmi living in a big bungalow having extremely expensive items and luxurious paraphernalia.
Failure in water, pollution, and waste and corruption management contributed to the downfall of APP. Yamuna cleaning was also an issue. Lacs of Bihari voters take bath and do puja during Chhath Puja ; they might have changed their loyalty towards BJP in order to have a clean Yamuna Chhat puja this year.
Another factor for the BJP win may be because of the promises made by the Party and their commitment towards continuing the existing facilities and amenities .That means the free bus service for ladies, free electricity and free water will continue. In addition they have promised many other things for the common masses.
One TV anchor asked the BJP spokesperson what exactly you will do for the pollution in Delhi and Yamuna. The Spokesperson smartly replied that we will do whatever we can do. What about liquor- will you bring a new policy? He candidly said we will adopt the best policy in the best interest of Delhi. Wisely he didn’t say, in the interest of the drinkers.
If a party wants to rule Delhi for a long time they must have a durable dhamaka daru policy. APP lost this election because of daru. Most political pundits will agree with the final finding. However the amrit from Kumbh is also a crucial factor.
Now, the PM will decide, who will be the next CM?
