rest of india is bored of communal politics. these emotive issues loose their appeal after a few years. Loook at UP. BJP is reduced to 3rd postion as it cannot whip communal passions any more. but congress is no different eihter. one believes in minority appeasement and the other believes in minority destruction to get votes. looks like hung assembly as usual.

thats the point i am trying to make. the BJP is no longer a significant player if there is no communal divide in the society. To defeat a Muslim(also Yadavs) leader, people should have turned to BJP as they project themselves as the messaihs of Hindus. the fact of the matter is that people are always divided on some issues. if there is no coomual discord, people vote on caste lines. only way BJP can win next elections is to engineer communal riots just 2 months before general elections.

it will b a hung parliament no doubt....but congress may suffer much by an anti-incumbency factor against its centre govt and the highly improbable event of advaniji bcomin pm has at least got a semblance of chance rite now???
