His portrayal of BJP as a sectarian party is wrong, as most of the media, and the opposition parties have been projecting.
India's economic growth/development is mainly due to the middle class population, who are better literate and better employed now-a-days. They are opposed to pampering of certain sections of population in the name of reservations in education, employment, etc. by various political parties. This is what Congress, Comunists, the media have all been doing all these years. BJP is one such party which calls a spade a spade. They want the Hindus to be proud, and fights if anyone/any party takes the side of some sections of the population whenever any problem comes up, be it communal riots, reservations in education, jobs, etc. You would have noticed that inspite of heavy campaigning and false propaganda by Congress and all other opposion parties in portraying BJP as the villain, maut ka saudagar, etc. it won Gujrat by a thumping margin. This is the mood of the middle class people, and the youth in the country today. Any party, media, who fails to take a neutral stance, and instead support any sections of the population in the name of vote banks, minorities, etc. will fail in due course of time.

Rule through Reservation
At last Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders agreed to give 33-50% reservation for the wives and daughters of goons, killers, kidnappers, 'Tehelka serial' actors and porn CD actors who are already in leadership. Senior leaders on February 21, 2008 reiterated the party%u2019s commitment to providing 33 per cent reservation for women in Parliament and State Assemblies.
One world's longest 'PM in waiting' said at the rally, "Ideally there should be 50 per cent reservation for women in Parliament and the State Assemblies, but we will be happy to back the government at the Centre if they are serious about bringing in 33 per cent reservation. Reservation is the only item on the Common Minimum Programme of the UPA government for women, sadly they haven%u2019t been able to deliver even that one promise."
Other gentleman Venkaiya Naidu said, "If you have the political will, bring in the Bill." But there is no a single idiotic cadre or supporter to ask where was the same will when BJP ruled India.
Another leader Rajnath Singh said, "Thirty-three per cent reservation is the right of the Indian women and it is something that had been promised to them." But Alas! He was forgetting (befooling people) 'Stall Parliament' was BJP's 'right' for previous four years as it is an opposition party.

Yes. BJP is not sectarian. All this while, they were just pretending to be sectarian! They just redraw their societal boundaries, as and when they find it convenient, to garner vote banks, only during elections.
Being at the left of center, Congress had always won elections since independence, as the only votes they could not get was the extreme right wingers. Hope you wouldn't have forgotten that you tam-brams voted en masse to Congress, before BJP came into the scene. So, BJP had to come up with a better vote bank idea, no matter how lethal it was. Timely came the Ram temple idea. This carved a boundary around the biggest vote bank in India,the Hindus - Poor, Uneducated, emotional. Perfectly suited to be hoodwinked. It did give BJP a momentous success, and took away a million innocent lives. They aren't bothered. Once their agenda was realized, they never spoke a word about the temple, as they wanted their rule to be the most peaceful one in Indian history.
Unfortunately, comes the election every 5 years. And so comes to life the sleeping devil. This time, they want to carve out every possible vote bank - Women, North Indians, Urbans, Educated, now..Secular, and of course, the Hindus, who they think are their political base, by keeping the Ram Sethu issue alive. People will never know that the Ram Sethu project was first proposed during BJP rule.
Looking at all these...yeah, BJP is not sectarian. But just cunning and oppurtunistic, like its Brahmin leads.

Forget about this "Amul" baby. He always writes anit-BJP, just like other pseudos.
