Prime Minister Modi not only knows the pulse of the people but polishes the raw diamond idea of Congress and Rahul Gandhi and finishes it on into fine cut diamonds and puts it for BJP victory crown. It was Rahul Gandhi who preached OBC politics without practicing it and considering OBC, SC and ST for any crucial Rajya Sabha seats or CM candidates or crucial party positions but Prime Minister Modi ensured maximum representation to these communities and got electoral benefits. Congress seems to have lost sight of things to come and are 10 years behind BJP in hard work, political strategy and giving retirement to old guards.

The Hindi language deficiency of the three Gandhi claiming the hereditary right to rule has ruined the congress Party’s chance of ever coming to power in the Centre on its own. They have uttered words and expressions which are abuses so low that the speaker uttering those words is considered uncultured, uncouth and lowly bred. The Congress leaders of no consequence cheered them loudly every time one of them uttered those words. There are more than 90 such words and one such expression earned Rahul Gandhi jail term for two years besides disqualification as Member of Parliament (stayed by the Supreme Court but not exonerated).

Why has the opposition lost massively in the recent elections? The opposition has no vision. All it has done is to try to dent the "sabka saath sabka vishwas sabka prayas" model of the BJP by resorting to divisive tactics of minorityism and rabid casteism. In the new India, these Stone Age issues have no traction with the voters. The opposition is not setting its house in order. The new India does not like the corrupt dynasts period. If the opposition wishes to retain the corrupt dynast model, they have only themselves to blame. The opposition cannot match the strategy, energy and hard work of the well oiled machinery of the BJP. The reason is that the opposition parties do not have any inner party democracy. No one can rise in the rungs of these corrupt dynastic parties on talent, merit, effort. The opposition does not have any ideology except inanely bashing the top leadership of the BJP. So what does the future hold? 400+ in 2024.

The voices of all Indians have been clearly stated in the current elections this year. No surprise at all especially from our women folk in rural and urban India. They want their desires to be fulfilled now and not empty vacant promises tomorrow. They want: a pucca home in their villages fitted with a modern toilet; a gas connection in their kitchen; a water tap in their homes; an electricity connection for 24/7 supply; a school for their children; a medical hospital nearby; a proper road to their villages; ration shop in each village to distribute PM food program; the Ladli Behena Scheme by the current government in MP came close to fulfilling their demands. The silent female voters of India voted with their feet and gave full support to their MLAs who delivered the PM’s programs. The complete story came to the fore December 3, 2023. All India and even foreign governments overseas watched the results as promulgated by our Election Commission of India. The Opposition Alliance is in tatters today. Currently the BJP controls 16 States independently/ with allies. These States have around 275 Lok Sabha seats for General Election 2024. A SWOT analysis shows that the current NDA Alliance led by the BJP will build on the results of the current State Assembly Elections. Anything less would be extremely disappointing. We still have poor people in our country and they should be priority one in the manifesto of the NDA Alliance. Economically India is at around $ 4 trillion as an economy with $ 600 billion dollars in our forex reserves. We also hold about 25000 tonnes of Gold as reported by World Gold Council, both privately and in RBI. That is excellent news but needs building on. Our adversaries in Pakistan and China are totally stunned by the State Assembly Elections results. We need to build our military strength too as we lost $ 45 trillion in loot by invaders from overseas. Strength respects Strength only. Our country needs a firm guiding leader for the decade ahead ie 2024 and 2029 General Elections. A few days of rest and the NDA Alliance has hard work ahead to fulfill the expectations of the people of India before 2024 General Elections.

Small space in forum for political thoughts
Sometimes I feel your forum space is too small for political thoughts and Supreme Court and CAT reportable judgments concerning government servants. If in addition to forum and RTI another two weekly columns can be introduced as National politics and Judgments concerning government officials where some relevant articles and reportable judgments can be posted.

While, Modi-led BJP's triple victory in assemblies' polls is a landmark achievement, it brings demeaning setbacks for I.N.D.I.A bloc in succession. Who, in the Congress will own the responsibility for its dismal performance? Sadly, Rahul/Priyanka Gandhi, the dynastic scions, were being subtly projected during the election campaign as future Prime minister, sidelining senior leaders. On this reckoning, the ruling dispensation's victory in 2024 Lok sabha election, is anybody's guess. A weak Opposition is a sure threat to democracy. Hence, it is time for introspection for all.
