BJP : How to come back?



This blog is specially for those with interest in indian politics. Though my understanding of politics is few years old, but the current crisis or revival of BJP, suit to say has forced me to write my views on the patty having 'Hindutava' as core ideology.

With the current election defeat, BJP has now gone into crisis  in regards to the Leadership. BJP has been in question for not having great leader since Mr. Vajpayee left the active politics. Mr. Vajpayee has been a great mentor for BJP. There were days when Mr. Vajpayee, Advani along with Govindacharya ( Former BJP president) took BJP to the new heights.

It is true that BJP had won the election in 1998 with its ideology 'Hindutava'. But now BJP can't hold that for long as people in India voting not based on relgion. BJP needs to understand that gone are the days when elections could have been won on the basis of religion. People of India now want development of their social life, more security, good future and not Ram Mandir.

Another thing BJP should do is to resolve the conflict the party top brass has. All the top leaders in BJP are fighting. They do not have any clear agenda of what they need to do to resolve the conflict. Party's top leaders should decide the leader with consent of all and support that leader (RSS may hep). BJP should try to project a secular face to lead the party. Shivraj Chauhan could be one.

Third but most important is the RSS. If BJP wants to be the party of todays generation, it needs to show that it is for all not only for Hindu but for Muslims also. That can then be agaist RSS who is not in favour of equal rights for Muslims. So, BJP cant leave RSS as 80 % of BJP workers are from RSS) and RSS will never allow BJP to move to secularism. Theory of 'soft Hindutava' is failed. BJP should move to 'Manavta' i.e humanity. I hope RSS is ok with this. Hindutava to Manavta.

BJP should also encourage young faces to step in and must form the peripheral of BJP. As more than 50 % of India is young, making this step would allow BJP to look young (image makeover). BJP should also come as strong oppostion with the issues such as inflation, development are hot today.

I hope you like it.

Happy reading!

What makes you feel Happy?         
 
                                                                                     
Without happiness life is just incomplete. You can not enjoy what you are doing and if you are seeking happiness in result, every time you will wait for happiness and that happiness will be short living. So it’s really important to know what makes you feel happy:
  1. Is it your good health which makes you feel happy; start making good health, no one is there to stop you except your procrastination?
  1. Is it spending some quality time with your family and friends who makes you feel happy: Take some time for your family and friends everyday and you will feel more energetic?
  1. It is traveling which makes you feel happy: Go for fortnightly, monthly or yearly tours; have weekly picnic in your home town or nearby area.
  1. Is it listening music or dancing which makes you feel happy: Just take time for listening music and dancing, no one is stopping you.
  1. Is it making new friends which make you feel happy: Make new friends anyway?
  1.  Is it learning a new skill or language which makes you feel happy: start learning it, there are plethora of free resources available on net what ever you want to learn.
  1. Is this reading a book or magazine which makes you feel happy: go and buy it; read it.
       Your success is directly associated with your energy level and your energy level depends on you mood (whether you are happy or sad). So it’s really important to be in state of happiness every single day.
Action Points

  1. Just think and analyze what makes you feel truly happy and start doing it again and again. (And remember getting happiness from anything about which you don’t feel good inside is never a really happiness. So the key is act should make you feel good at doing and later on)
