Lessons from Modi's victory
by Radharamanan Panicker on Dec 23, 2007 09:48 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Modi's victory has brought home to fore that from now you will need charismatic leader to will state election. The victory of Modi is not a victory of BJP but the defeat of Congress's culture. a culture where the central leadership has primacy. In congress, The leader for the state is foisted on the people after election by Central leadership who have no clue of ground reality. This will not work anymore. If congress hopes to win in Future, it will have to strenghten its inner party democrary and create state and national leadership through primary elections in the party like it happens in US politics. Allow that leader two terms to deliver the results, but bear no dissedence. The other state where congress is going to lose if this aspect is not taken care will be Maharashtra.
Unfortunately this loss will put congress on the dock at national politics and India's foreign will now become hostage to Left's whims and idealogy. This will be a disaster for INdia. Unfortunately BJP is playing politics with the foreign policy and blocking the US-India Nuclear deal for no reason at all.

Haven't you realised that Modi is going in the same direction of congress culture?.The moment Gujaratis lose confidence in him, BJP would fall like anything.Modi has already destroyed the organisational structure of party in the state and removed every troubling voice.

The gujjus haven't lost faith in this man for the past 6 years. So let it be like that for the next 5 or 10 years where Modi will give a paradigm shift to nationalistic politics rather than DYNASTIC politics.

Congress is no saint to talk about riots, leave alone the leftist communists.
