Political Endgame has begun


With what Narendra Modi’s rally in Hyderabad looked like, at least from the initial crowds and reaction of the people on the ground, that Namo Mantra might turn into a wave. It was a first for both BJP & Modi to draw such a gigantic response in Andhra and the South, where typically BJP is non-existent more so at a time when Congress is ruling there, and Telangana vs Andhra agitations were ongoing in Hyderabad.

Modi reached out to TDP Jayalalitha, but, I wont be surprised if he allies with Jaganmohan and TRS also. In that case, Congress will be decimated in TN & Andhra and even in Karnataka, where Modi is talking to Yedurappa. Subramaniam Swami’s exposes of major scams will see BJP making a huge dent in Kerala, and of course, in M.P, Gujarat & Goa, which are BJP ruled states, Congress doesn’t have a chance.

TMC is expected to sweep Bengal. And in UP, Bihar, Delhi and Rajasthan, the Congress will be seriously dented by BJP.

Congress has failed on all fronts. Its weak policy against China & Pakistan and rising prices alongwith brazen corruption, will be key factors for its worst ever defeat.

A Third Front chances looks bleak because Mulayam Singh’s credentials are bad, and Nitish looks weak after the break up in Bihar.

It will be economically and militarily good if we have a stable, strong and less corrupt NDA government at the centre.
