India’s current government is led by the Bharatiya Janta Party or the BJP. It is also the country’s largest national party. It was formed in 1980, though its origins lie in the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, which was founded in 1951. The Jana Sangh was closely associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization that continues to play a significant role in shaping the BJP’s ideology.
The party first came to power at the center in 1996, but its government lasted only 13 days. It returned to power in 1998, forming a coalition under the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), with Atal Bihari Vajpayee as Prime Minister. His tenure saw India conducting nuclear tests in 1998, economic reforms, and a focus on infrastructure development. However, the BJP lost power in 2004 to the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA).
The BJP made a historic comeback in 2014 by securing 282 seats out of 543 in the Lok Sabha, with Narendra Modi as India’s prime minister. Major policy changes include the revocation of Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir, the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) 2019, and the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019 that criminalized triple talaq in India.
The government’s handling of several protests and crises has faced widespread scrutiny. The 2020–2021 farmer protests, which were sparked by the controversial farm laws that were later repealed, drew significant public attention, with criticism directed at the use of force and the management of the situation. Similarly, the government’s response to the 2019 Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests raised concerns over its handling of dissent, particularly the use of force. The BJP’s management of the COVID-19 pandemic also attracted criticism, especially regarding the lack of transparency around the death toll, shortages of medical resources like oxygen cylinders, and inadequate preparedness during the second wave.
Additionally, the ongoing inter-tribe conflict in Manipur, which erupted in 2023, has faced criticism for the government’s perceived failure to take adequate action, with accusations of poor crisis management and insufficient intervention in addressing the escalating violence.

well written! What a sad situation for India. We deserve much better leaders than these. Look at our neighbours. They will be racing ahead of us in a short while. Claiming we are the sixth biggest economy is hiding the fact that we have the world’s largest group of poor people as a country even after 70 years of independence; nothing to be proud of. ‘Cry the beloved country…’
The established old Congress Party has lost its sheen and became a Characterless one now.
Going by Mr.Shivam Vij’s logic, one would not have thought the BJP would have won so many states and centre to its fold, as for decades the jansangh and the BJP and to some extent its parental org and idealogically matching hindu mahasabha never won any elections. for so many years it was called 2 MPs party. Though congress may be electorally weak now at the moment, the present situation cannot be attributed to Mr.Rahul Gandhi alone. Congress under the leadership of Ms.Indra Gandhi, weakened its state leaders dominance, which paved the way for congress to loose its charm in states. Other leaders contributed to it. Atleast now Mr.Gandhi is trying to give full freedom to state leadership to decide its course of actions and selection in candidates etc. It is not that easy to win elections immediately after assuming leadership. There are lot of ground work like connecting to its grass root workers, and leaders is needed. Thro’mass contact programmes, meeting the people, participating in people’s struggle etc. can a leadership bring the party back to centre stage and that is what the congress is trying to do under the leadership of Mr.Gandhi. winning and loosing elections are one part of democracy.
People who are not at all interested in the welfare of the country particularly some groups minorities and leftists say koi bhi chalega but not Modi
Rahul Gandhi most of the times makes silly mistakes. As opposition chief his mistakes could be ignored but may impact most as PM.
The author seems to be living in fantasy. Nether has Modi failed, nor is Rahul Gandhi that poor opposition leader. India is vast country, so if anybody believes that it can be changed in a year or two is in Alice in wonderland. Rahul Gandhi has shown that when is free of influence of his mother and her advisors, especially Ahmed Patel and Ambica Soni, he is able to perform well. He showed that in Gujarat.
But no assorted liberals are pushing him to discredit himself, so that they can bring somebody like Mamata or Kejriwal, staunch secularists. Therefore he is resorting into criticizing Govt. in everything, which antagonizes people benefiting from many projects implemented by government.
So Rahul should free himself from these people taking him to ruin.
Because his performance. And dedicated with relented serve for country.beside that he is the only prime minister those have no scamp in ancient arena prothom raj Cohan the Hindu king now modi jee
My kinds who want to see a strong opposition may not read any best article than this which prompting me to do what I can do at best is to comment so Rahul baba rushes to groom himself & not for a bride but the country.
BJP and Modi can not fool the people.Modi is the most hated PMs of India.He has divided India on the basis of religion.Religin is a belief.It is of no use. He has taken India backwards… The daily increase in petrol prices empty the pockets of every body.The cost of cooking gas. was RS 400 during 2014 . Now it is RS 800. Of all hatred amongst the people is created by Modi. There is no safety for women. Women are gang raped. Children too are not spared. No employment opportunities.
Modi was selling tea which are reboiled and slightest hot,asking courier by shouting take hot tea won’t get any where in the world.one couple bought tea knowing very excellent in quality and very hot also.while wife sip tea throw out tea cup.Then her husband took the whole cup of tea and asked wife why you have thrown it out as tea vendor said very hot ‘n excellent.Wife told I had tested the tea as worst and thrown in garbage.She told that tea seller always lie to make profit out of selling his tea bowl.But you did not taste it just sawallow taking his word granted.in this context tea seller never enjoy any holiday whole day n’ night work and earn livelihood.Thus same pm treating country men as tea consumer and warning huge profit of selling jumla,falsefied evil design only to win election.in this country miracle happen
Everyday provided you believe in it. Now Rahul Gandhi as he has not come from very low profile social life.He is beat trusted and have fearing of loosing life due to frequented with life threatening.Why he should bother of indian people at the cost of his own life and his father and grand maa killed by extremist group.let him be slow and cool courier than to survive not wining the election.People is best judge let them not to polute by false promise.
I am unbiased as for the next general elections yet. Your article was simply great to read.
It is very clear from this article as well as from most of the comments. It’s a shame we don’t have people who are focused on the Indian Nation to improve. It also has thus far proved there is nothing called unity in this great Nation. Unity cones with sacrificial lifestyle, not hording wealth as today most of the people are doing, be it a Common Man or a Businessman or even any politician. If some show that they are not swindling the Nation, may they are not, but are allowing someone else to horde and could be on behalf of himself or herself is…We are only big talkers bit non is a doer of any work to build the Nation. Do we have any leaders in the Arm forces – non, do we have any at all who has not thought of selfish gain for oneself – Non. Ultimately we are proving we are unable to manage our own affairs hence making a gateway for an intruder… Greedy eyes are around us…but we will not know till they come and put the brand of ‘Gulami Tag’ which we all love to wear…be it the Moguls, be it the British or even now the “Swindler -Class”. Is there any so called religious person who could say “God help us”… Hindu, Muslim, Sikh or even Christians????
The author must be a dynasty worshiper. He does not have a clue what is going on in India. If author had done his home work to compare hard work, Wealth, achievements, proposal for better India,etc. between Modi and Rahul, this article can become worth reading. The fake Gandhi dynasty had robed and raped India, however, their greed is still not fulfill. They want to sell India to Pakistan or China. All overseas trip by Sonia and Rahul is for self interest and adjustment of financial adjustment. If this author has any guts or courage or a strong desire, thewnm more reasons can be documented. Fake Gandhi family does not care whether Rahul gets the throne or not. However, they can count on either dynasty lover like the author or other ostrich who like to hide their brain in darkness and blindly worship the dynasty.
If Rahul is sincere about doing something for India, then, he should have started by cleaning his own highly corrupted congress party starting from his family. Come out with proposal to strengthen and boost the moral of the Indian army. How to fight and defeat threat from neighbors and terrorism, How to curb corruption, How to boost economy, etc. He and congress had no such agenda because only agenda they have to get back in power to rob and rape India.
In past, corrupted and bought news media where providing the propaganda out lined by congress goons. However, Indian are getting more informed about the truth by other source of information.
What Trump is facing in USA, Modi is facing the same thing in India. Corrupted and bought news media.
Brilliant piece of diplomacy by Writer to spice up the emotions within the people who read this article as it not only diminished and belittle the work done by Modi led BJP government but also criticising the 60 years of legacy left by the Gandhi’s led UPA. I read somewhere in the comment that Muslims were ill treated by BJP. It is not only by BJP but by all political parties to create political unrest. Noone is stupid enough to challenge a large number of so called Minority especially when their image towards minority is not good already.
My views too are biased as it should be. The government nneeds to do a lot of work and i guess we should give them some more time. They can manage things well can be interpreted by the fact that they have handled few situations in the last few years very well.
Modi is the only hope for NEW INDIA , undoubtedly he will WIN 2019.
Due to the scams reported in the Congress regime and the aftermath India Against Corruption movement by Resp Anna Hazare ji and Shri Arvind Kejriwal ji , people have put Mr Modi to power. They had expected better time and Modi ji himself also promised the people for Achhe Din .But during his last 4 years , the country has witnessed his autocratic and absolutism style of working. The strong opposition is a healthy symptoms of our Democracy, but he tried to eliminate the opposition parties and destabilized the opposition ruled States. He promised to bring back the black money from the banks abroad, but instead of doing this, launched an overnight note-bandi programs without much preparation, as a result the public suffered a lot. Before coming to power, he promised for a strong Lokpal, which as on date still seems to be no chances. Recently the SCI has also asked his govt how much time will be taken in this appointment ? The problems pertaining to price rise, corruption, unemployment and community dis harmony is on the peak. Inspite of a steep fall in the price if crude oil in the international market, the petroleum prices were kept at the highest. The present scenario in UP MP and J& K showing the Beti bachao Beti Parhao slogan as hollow. The educational standards of the universities in India is not improved. The farmers are suffering with the lowest purchase price of their crops. Many of the PSU like Air India are on sale.No body taking guarantee of the employees of such PSUs. Recently, the CBI Judge investigating the 2G Spectrum scam, has rejected and denied the happening of the scam . The accused were acquitted The Govt, in public interest , supposed to have challenged this outcome in SCI , but still not. Therefore, Mr Modi’ s coming back in 2019 , the Achhe Din will be far far from tbe reach of the poor and down trodden in the Country.. A person whose performance has been tested, should not been given a chance again . Under the prevailing circumstances, Rahul Gandhi is the best PM candidate for 2019. He is very honest, sensible and respects to every one, and certainly proved to be as one of the ablest PM of India.
Modi will return because
1) The opposition is divided and BJP is assuring the divide by taking in leaders and offering them the seats to keep them happy
2) The opposition has no leader that is fit to rule. Mamta is the only experienced person out of jail and her jail time is coming soon. Modi and Amit will assure that as soon as she takes the lead like Jaya Lalita.
3) Rahul Ghandy will keep congress weak and hold back any leader with potential. One would think that Mummy would have given him some experience as the CM of a state like Kashmir where he would have brought the communities together after all he is a Kashmiri Pandit along with Persian and Italian roots. Otherwise he would be non-Indian if Kashmir were not to be a part of India.
The reason Modi will be PM is that there is no leader in the opposition that can fill the PM position. The opposition will have to look deep and hard and find a “Narsimha Rao” with the danger that this person could destroy the Ghandy family once and for all. Something that Manmohan should have done.
Only leftis and pro Congress ppl can’t see Modi govt work other wise he is doing fantastic.
Modi is working.. he is trying to deliver.he is serious’.. compare railway platform now and four years back.. he deserves for another term..
Bhakts won’t like thise article.after long time I read something which is genuine thought and not the flattery of Modi.
This article headlines are true for a nation with 80% educated voters.
This nation goes by rejection of one basically for election of another which is common trend.
The recent poll results are indicators too though things may change with campaigning but the volume of change matters.
Here the educated urbanites never vote but enjoy election holidaying.
The rural n urban slum are.mass voters who decide the fate of people in politics,the nation n their fate.
this is all fulish Modiji is delivering more than what he has to deliver!

The writer’s view is OK if it would have been a nation with real educated people who go by aspirant for nation head. Such category people counts for 20% only educated urbanites.
The pity part is out of 20% ,only 5% cast votes in urban India.
So the reality is something else in India where people reject one candidate or a party to elect another which is mentioned in the last paragraph of this article.
The majority in rural India vote in mass. Their views , they never express directly. But it’s observed from their behaviour n day to day life.
The way people taught Congress in 2014 is a lesson for all major parties in india to learn.
How far this current Government satisfied the mass voters if rural India is the question n to be analysed to find out the possibility.
The recent poll results are too indications only to be treated as survey reports of opinion polls though it may vary from place to place n state to state after almost a year.
This is a crap article, media as shown in the movie Sanju is extremely biased.
Modi has proved himself, be it demonetisation or GST, they have all done good to the country unlike the negativity created by media. Ideally most of the media is held by stakeholders of Congress and the likes. That says it all.
Sir, Please let the nation know what good Demonetisation has done to the country ?
More than one hundred innocent persons died while standing in the long queues ?
The gentle masses were unduly subjected to untold confusion, chaos,miseries and
hardships for no fault of their own by NaMo sans any homework or planning !
Where is the black money unearthed by Modi ? Will he alone enjoy the booty ?
The slabs of GST have not been finally finalised as yet by this wavering NaMo Govt. !
Kindly stop parroting NaMo and Amit Shah blindly !
Prof PK Sharma,Freelance Journalist,Barnala (Punjab)
The author is more interested in blaming NAMO’s administration. This article is much biased. The past 20 years election history shows for Modi it is arithmetic – × – =+. There is a big Tukde Tukde gang which comprises Nobel laureate, ex-vp, communal elements and political opponents who are spreading misinformation day and night to defeat Modi. The people are wise enough to judge the misrule of 55 years of Corrupt Congress party and 4 years best administration is Modi. As far as Pappu is concerned, he has not come out of pappus image even after spending 14 long years in April as Parliament. So TINA factor is much in place for 2019 polls.
The Print is a litter.
The fact could not have been written in a better way
INC chief is talking of farmer’s distress and suicidoes and living in Lutryons Delhi, eating at. 7 star hotel in Ifetar party, keeping congress mla’s in Resort.. I it’s Aam Aadami
There is yet another way of looking at election 2014 and the coming one, 2018. Then, it was a vote against massive curruption in the Congress. Actually BJP’s vote share was only 30%. This time, there massive anger against lynching, Hindutva, gorakshakas, promises unkept. Will this translate into loss of BJP?
The trouble with our nation is that we as a community have forgotten the lessons from the past and we have failed ourselves in national character building process. It may sound a bit harsh but we are too obsessed with the two minute noodle ‘maggi’ syndrome. We want everything in quick fix manner sans quality and irrespective of nutritional value. Nation building is supposed to be slow and steady exercise and we failed to see through and appreciate the fact even as we fell prey to modi’s jumlas.
Let’s not forget that its not the naiveness or lack of oratory prowess in rahul gandhi that creates fear rather what is more worrisome that a person like rahul gandhi, who seems to have no commitment towards even himself rather is busy holidaying at a time which perhaps can easily be foreseen as most tumultuous time staring in face of independent india, has been pasted as poster boy of the congress.
It’s not a rugby match in which the individuals are/have to be supporters of either side rather it is our, our nation’s future and we must huddle behind the incumbent government and at the same time look for better choices in congress itself as rahul baba is anyway not destined to lead our nation much less as a p.m.
NDTV playing better roll then Congress.Asspecially Ravishkumar.
Our Media has now perfected the art of Overestimating Modi and Understating Rahul , you have given a chance to the man who cant even hold a single press conference , cant show his degree, nothing to show economically in last 4 years , a disastrous decision like demonetisation no experts only a Modi , Shah duo to govern , whereas Rahul could be guided with experts and a proper council of ministers who can implement their own ideas . Thus Rahul comes across a much more sincere and genuine person ?
Feku bak back modi still thinks that blaming the congress party will work. Feku still thinks that congress is in power now.. Feku thinks that people are fools and he can always fool…
Useless fellow who wrote this article. Please stop maligning a person like Modiji, who has tried so hard to do something for India. Today everybody looks up to India because of Modiji. We have heard of great persons like S.V.Patel , Bhagat Singh. But to see a great person in our lifetime is a blessing.
Please recall in the year 2002, Mr.Atal Bihari Vajpayee then Prime Minister of India had advised then Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Bhai Modi to follow ” Raj Dharma ” ! And he failed to do that !
You can judge for yourself how great NaMo infact is ?
Foolish thought to compare NaMo with Sardar Patel and Bhagat Singh !
Prof PK Sharma,Freelance Journalist,Barnala(Punjab)
The author is a frustrated left liberal who will always try to denigrates Modi. There is a saying A BAD WORKMAN ALWAYS FIND FAULTS WITH HIS TOOLS. Ahthor should try to analyse what Modi achieved in various fields in such a short time with AN OPEN MIND. His current article is short sighted and definitely not acceptable.
There’s no doubt Modi has greatly flopped.What he has given to countrymen ? Jumla, tall talk, flouting constitution of the country,autocracy, demolition of judiciary,starving non BJP ruled states,casteism,gai politics, falsification of facts & series of frauds- Rs.20000/cr.gujrat petro scam ,
RS.150000/cr.scam Raffaele scam,Vyapam scam,RS.36000/-cr.rice scam, Vasundhara scam, RS.7000 cr.cash deposit in Ahmedabad coop.Bk connected to Amit shah- all these bear testimony to Modi’s bad governance.
Tax collection has gone up.
Absolutely ….I don’t want to vote for BJP because of their bad behavior with Muslims but I am not going to vote for Congress either …. because of their poor leadership. Country is more important than these guys ……and 1 last thing Muslim can only be empower if our country empower as a whole ….
Lets have debate between both the leaders at live tv and then decide who’s going to be the reason for who’s defeat. Can Modi accept live debate with Rahul Gandhi?
Unless and until the so called GOP break up the shackles of the Nehru-Gandhi Dynasty,which has linked with the Italian Mafia,there is no scope for the revival of Congress Party, in the near future.
I posted a comment which questions this report it was not posted.
Shame on the writer he is arrogant n trying to be ignorant of all misdeeds of congress pappu n his family. If u still don’t feel crop insurance, jan dhan accounts, free LPG
Connection , n many other such projects will not get MODI n BJP votes than GOD SAVE US. N people who commenting what modi dis in last 4 years are colour blind . Have a chill pill cause AAYEGA TO MODI HI
It’s another Blind #Bhakt who is indirectly praising Modi
We need to weigh the pros and cons from both angle.
Yes, in democratic set up we need to have a strong alternate to question ruling party of it’s mistakes and blunders.
Aur koan? definitely make a sensible question. Of course, people of Republic of India will think many times before voting to party/it’s leader, who will be the PM candidate, if it win. Rahul or other opposition parties’ stelwarts don’t look to qualify to be a PM.
There was definitely some hope in AAP in 2012/14. But that was knocked down and this party is reduced to an ant and lost it’s shining because of pappu no.2 at the helm. It has become an one man army and dictatorial type of party. Many able, famous and influential members have left AAP because of senseless people managing the party. It has lost it’s opportunity to become a national party, in direct contest with Congress or BJP.
When modi moved to capital from a state, there was speculation about managing the whole nation as against a state. That’s true. The last 4 years was run with ups n downs, success n failures and it is a great learning. We need to appreciate one thing that, he could have ruled with criticalities put under the carpet, but he took serious risk on GST and demonetisation. GST is a major role out with almost Rs.1.5 trillion revenue generation and someday or other one need to take a risk to roll out it. It will stabilize in next 2 years.
Lastly, he definitely need to do appraisal of his people n ministers around, keeping in mind of people suggestions and sentiments. Picking up n recruiting top brains directly from outside is in the right direction
Gentleman, please keep in mind the stark reality and truth that in India’s Politics there is no qualification that weighs or matters !
It is only the numbers game which is of paramount significance !
Very ignorantly without thinking for a moment, you have said that Rahul Gandhi or any other opposition leader does not qualify to be the Prime Minister ! Where is the article or clause in the constitution which stipulates what you have said ?
In 2014, there were far more talented and well qualified leaders like Mr.Lal Krishan Advani,Dr.Murli Manohar Joshi, Mr.Yashwant Sinha, Mr.Shanta Kumar and Mr. Shatrughan Sinha and so on in BJP than Narendra Modi !
Modi exploited the numbers game in his favour sidelining selfishly the top senior leadership of BJP harping on ploys, rhetorics, lies and tall fictitious promises !
I ask you very simple questions , ” Are you in favour of mob lynching of innocent people”? What are the gains of Demonetisation ?
Do you approve of Mr. Jayant Sinha Minister in NaMo Cabinet garlanding convicts involved in lynching incidents released on bail ?
Do you believe in blind following sans applying your mind?
Just Think and then answer !
Prof PK Sharma,Freelance Journalist,Barnala(Punjab)
But now all the opposition parties are aware that they must put up a united fight.otherwise they would loose at the very beginning itself. And so all is not.There is chance and hope.Let us wait and see.
How he prepares for the elections is his headache and why he goes abroad is his business. He is answerable to no one. This topic had great potential for insights, but a poorly ideated reasoning given for the opposition’s current predicament might just make this opinion piece heavily biased. Again seems like one of those trojan articles seemingly talking about where the govt seems to go wrong but ending up bashing the opposition at the end.
The ONLY reason MODI will win is because there is NO ONE BETTER THAN MODI!
You are just another Propoganda master
I still wonder Abu those critising MODI. I ask them forget modi what they have done in previous 4 years towards well being of the country?
Alas? Writer is so ignorant about India progress and government excellent performance during 4 year.
Article written to tarnish image of Modi.
Hand symbol of Congress has done enough damage and stands for the 60+years of Haath Ki Safaai.There is no Punch in coming together of opposition parties because the hand symbol is an open palm for greasing and not a fist to fight. Your article rightly points out Congressees chief is no PM stuff.Modi is not only a leader world has taken note of but India as a country has been catapulted to world centre stage by our PM.Hats off to him.
I will first make it clear that I am not a devotee of Narendra modi.
I am just not satisfied with the way you have framed the article. It is because, it is modi’s goverment who have many beneficial actions for the citizens in contrast to the UPA 2 government.
As I expect that you will know more
then me but i think you are not aware of the works and initiatives BJP government taken to rejuvenate the indian pride.
And saying that modi is not as strong as 2014 but in my opinion he is 10 times more stronger than what he was in 2014.
If Mr Modiji really want to achieve his success in India, only one job need to be done,Take only one decision, All politician and their family wealth is Govt property, take decision at cabinet level and seize whole wealth of all Indian politicians, as he himself and his family have no wealth, second is all politician former and current and their all family and relative can use only facility which was used by poors of India, BPL family, all wealth can made debt free india within a month and if they use Govt state bus and railway general class and indria or rajiv aawas, then this change can, truly change india within few month, its really dramatically change attitude of people of India.
Congress hand symbol has done enough of Haath Ki Saffai of the country.Why there is no Punch in opposition unity for 2019 hustings against Modi is the Congressees open palm symbolising open loot of so many years and not a closed fist to give a fitting alternative.Oppositions tug of war rope has Knots too many.Congressees imposed their chief on the nation and your article aptly says he is NO PM stuff .
A balanced article. Well written.
Modi has way with words.
No doubt he is performer.
He sold more than he can produce.
Being new to governing country and not judging the entrenched establishment he has fallen short of promises made.
People highlight what you have not done which is fair.
What he has achieved till now will make him complete his promises.
Interesting times
The report is poorly drafted. Anyway you are asking why Pappu )Cannot call him Gandhi which he doesn’t have any relation,? It was Ferosh Gandi which become Gandhi due to mistake by Gandhiji) don’t try? How can he try there is something called Capability
For starters, Rahul Gandhi’s speech prowess has improved a lot since 2014. Yes, he keeps making an occasional gaffe but he’s a far mature politician today than in the past. The way he campaigned in Gujarat is a testimony to his capability for hard work. It did yield positive results. BJP was reduced to a less than triple digit number in a state which is Modi’s bastion.
Also, Rahul’s campaigns is what won Congress 78 seats in the Karnataka elections. Without him they would have been reduce to a number like 55-56.
Rahul doesn’t need to do the groundwork like forge coalitions or entertain allies. There are competent Congress leaders who are up to the task. Rahul unlike Modi greatly believes in delegating responsibilities. That is the smart way to run things. So what if he goes for vacations abroad? He’s doing it on his own dime. Everyone deserves a vacation after weeks and months of hard work. The chaiwalla takes vacations twice a month anyway.
Rahul doesn’t have to be a chatur bania like Amit Shah to help Congress win this elections. The anti-incumbency against Modi is pretty serious. He will not last in a head to head campaign. I think he would want to go for an honorable exit and not run the next elections for BJP.
Congress will definitely win far more than the 44 seats it did last time (which is 48 now, considering all the bye-poll wins which can be traced to Rahul’s leadership). Even if Congress sails past 130 or 140, it will be able to form the next government with coalition partners. As it did during UPA-1 with only 145 seats!
NDA under Modi if they fall 10-15 seats short of 272 will never be able to form the government (but still be a powerful opposition). The reason is other politicians HATE Modi. They will not give him another chance. See the bickering of Shiv Sena and other allies. Modi is stealing the bread and butter of other politicians. Supporting him in future is suicide for them. In contrast, Rahul enjoys vast support among allies including Akhilesh, Tejashwi Yadav, Kumaraswamy, Sharad Yadav, Sharad Pawar. Even Mamta Banerjee will eventually fall in line and support Rahul for PM.
The United Opposition already has a target of 400+ seats for next Lok Sabha. It will be a powerful stable government with Congress at its help. Yes, allied leaders such as Mamta Banerjee and Mayawati will also get very important posts such as home minister or defence. There will be fewer Congress party leaders in the cabinet.
Modi is already packing his “jhola” and flee – maybe to his brother Nirav and Lalit Modi in London. Amit Shah will flee to America.
Well said. Time will say. We have definitely got an idiotic pm who keeps chanting about the opposition, always. All his speech are dramatic, full of lies, a failure pm and yet he won’t accept it. Unfortunate.
For liberals the word Hindu is bad. So they will keep cribbing.So let’s take a pledge to bring Modi as PM again in 2019.

The article is hypothetical ! At this stage, it is too early to go in for any premonition !
Even then, the author is quite up to the mark for analysing things as they stand now.
The NaMo magic unlike 2014 is no where to be found !
The manipulated rally at Jaipur on July, 07 addressed by NaMo was lacklustre as the
PM had not anything new and exceptional to project ! One really fails to understand
on the one hand, he had been talking of Congress Mukt Bharat very often but why can
not he forget Congress any moment ? Why is he so haunted by the party which he had
been dreaming of making Bharat(India) free ? Needless to recall, the failures of NaMo
on manifold fronts whether at home or abroad.The media too did not at all attach any
importance to this event deeming it as a routine affair.
Then over to perusal of Rahul Gandhi’s performance in the role of healthy and constructive
opposition ! The author sans any doubt has very aptly found Rahul Gandhi wanting in this
role. Given the scenario and circumstances, Rahul can strive at this juncture leaving no
stone unturned to steal the show !
Sheer opposing NaMo is not going to take him to the desired goal but his party has not
come out with pro-public policies and programmes as an alternative to NaMo’s rhetorics,
ploys and lies in the arena in the run up to 2019 Lok Sabha Polls.
Time no doubt is on its wings and Congress Party must keep pace with it otherwise time
spares none ! Going infact will not be a child’s play in Marathon-that is 2019 !
Post May,15 Karnataka Assembly Poll results like smart, agile and timely strategy indeed
is the key to the desired results in Grand Final of 2019 !

This is what almost all Congress sponsored fake journalists have been claiming. You have every right to criticize Modi but he is the only option for India in 2019 and 2024.
In 2004 everybody thought that amiable vajpayee will win but see happened.
We don’t know who is going to be PM in 2019.like gowda or gujral who ran the govt ,may emerge.modi cannot be the only fit to rule
Hallow Shivamji, what a novel way you have found to canvas for a failed p m for 2019 elections.That you are trying to find trivial faults in Gandhi. Is it a fault of Gandhi going abroad accompanying his ailing mother,Soniaji,for her treatment
Theory of development holding up against mathematics of vote banks of caste,religion,region is definitely an impossible task.. Moreover a relatively honest and working government is a new thing in the Indian context to be voted again by such diverse groups.
It’s good to see liberals’ mounting frustration and desperation. NDTV anchors also try very hard to get Congress to do something. They defend the indefensible. But, Pappu and chamchas don’t have it in them. Modi is here to stay, and he is doing a great job. Some BJP ministers do embarrass the govt. and liberals think it is enough to highlight hot-heads and they will win. You do live in a world that exists only in your heads. There’s no alternative to Modi, no political leader even comes close. When it’s a question of running the country, you need a man. Mute-Mohan Singh lacked a spine. Hillary would have been a complete disaster – just like that dandy Justin Trudaeu.
I am not a big bjp supporter, but the work that modi has don Uttar pradesh, especially up west where i come frn, is really great. There us 20 hrs electricity nd 24 hrs water man. It used to took us 6 hrs to reach dekhi but it only takes 3 and a half hrs evenwhen merrut delhi expresssway isn’t completed yet. Once it’s done then it’ll only take 2.5 hrs. Just imagine. Modi saved our 4 hrs each way. And the toad r amazing. So u r just a hater ana no party worked this mich ever before.
We must distinguish between promises and achievements..if promises were the criterion then Indira Gandhi promised to garibi hatao in the seventies..or BJP promised the Mandir..
So it is achievements..here I feel that the achievements made by this Government are not clear to people partially because they are ignorant and partially because of well planned counter narrative..
But be it stability in the cabinet so no expansions or representations and dissidents and willing…or firm dealing on Pakistan the GST demonetzation infrastructure firm measures have been taken. No corruption either. I will be glad to clarify this to Print. This is a development oriented govt. India will be foolish to lose this.
If Pappu has the credentials to face Modi, let him contest against Modi direct in the General Elections 2019 anywhere of his choice & pose a challenge to Modi. He has stopped in the last 4 years only to criticise Modi thro’ prerit ten scripts of his party goons instead of contributing excellent ideas for better governance. Let me when Pappu had exhibited his talent as a true politician in the past. Modi & BJP will be winning the GE 2019 with thumping majority giving the Tukada opposition a run including Congress.
Yeah man. U r absolutely correct. I am a RG fan but he is not even trying neither forward a vision for india.
Forget Rahul why not other opposition parties create strong leader who can challenge modi In 2014 modi got 30 p.c.vote till win because opposition were divided In 2019 he will do his best to divide opposition unity Opposition parties not united because of their leader`s ego every wanted t be P.M Advantages to Modi his charming oratory devoted rss workers help Shah`s tactics discipline in party
After demonetisationlarge heaps of scrapped notes are being caught on a daily basis. Even assuming the official of money in circulation came into banks the seized scrapped notes are the parallel economy of genuine notes descended from security printing pressses under RBI. May be some one at the level of guv.with the lead role of UPA might be in the background. Therefore demonetitration apart curbing circulation of money among separatist leaders weeded out parallel currency to a major extent. GST brought down prices in metros on aboutique 71 categories of items. Earlier traders were collecting sales/vat but not remitting to govt. Now every one has to register. Vat, outgoing, central excise were subsumed bringing in reduced prices. If there was no support GST could havery been scrapped. Lot of infrastructure is in place. Several people obtained mudra scheme and this is much more than the emploentire creation
Employment does not mean govt
Jobs only. If congress had created jobs durinh its rule there would.not have any demand for employment. Unlike upa there are scan2yayula the govt.pulled
When cat drinks milk in the stealing mode it closes eyes and think that nobody is watching. — Cat knows congress is already down but acts as if still cong is the main opponent, where as the fact is that a mahaghatbandhan is standing right in front of it…. and cat knows it but closes the eyes and continue drinking milk…..
That gatbandhan is a group of rascals.
first it seems u hv nt got this quarter instalment frm 10 JP,whn n whatever u talk abt PAPPU ,it may be fair bt ur assumptions on @narendramodi is nt quite fair,he hs delivered what a PM cld deliver in his first tenture,in which most of time passes in understanding n correcting the system,his all populist work fr poor r wholhearedly supported n liked by poors,frm JANDHAN ,LPG ,ELECTRIC POWER ,LED ,HOUSING ,CROP n LIFE INSURANCE AT NOMNAL RATES,SWACHH BHARAT ,LOW COST MEDICINE n like many of them,above all PM n PARTY PREZ always in election mode ,communicating with public on daily basis,cn u show a single example of past PM or PARTY PREZ ,so criss crossing country, n always in touch with der party paersons n general public ,they r nt enjoying any political position on personel basis,u may said failure of foreign policy ,bt our dispora ,my freinds n relative in every continent highly impressed by MODIS influence on der GOV there
Modi simply destroyed the Economy and Ecosystem of the country. Now a days there are more riots and religious haterates, as compared prior to 2014.
BJP is not only dividing the country on basis of religion, but even within religion. They have escalated the definition of ‘ divide and rule’ to a new height.
Rupee is at all time low.
Petrol, diesel,gas price are sky high.
Unemployment.
Corruption.
And then there’s Modi and BJP organising multi crore meets, foreign trips and all luxurious campaigns.
If you think India before 2014 was a peaceful paradise then you need to open your damn eyes. Riots were a commonplace all over India in the past decades. Even Gujurat had multiple riots. If anything it was because of Modi that Gujurat has not seen any riots at all ever since 2002. He completely stopped that nonsense from happening.
As for petrol prices, check on the data from 2004 till now. You’ll see that in Modi’s 4 years, the prices have remained within the 67-69₹ mark with a difference of about 4₹ at most meanwhile before 2014, in 10 years of Congress and Manmohan, it went from 31₹ to 67₹, a jump of almost 35₹ rupees! In just 10 years!
These are hard facts. Open your eyes and just take a look around for real.
People who are not arm chair critics know very well that if any big change has to be done, four years is hardly enough. People are practical and understand it very well. But the hate Modi gang hyper active on blogs, TV debates et el keep criticising him. However these matter little to the masses. Yes they may dent his image but surely not put him down.
What u have said is exactly correct. There is no correct opponent to modi, in the national level. I’m from Ap.i know very well modi cheats people.
Modi is not a saint. But he is far better than all the rats in the opposition.
They are all vultures, worse than rats.
‘Jetsetting around the world’…. All Modi haters have a few jumlas like this. Why dont they study/RTI and find out the outcome of each of his foreign visits. No scams, Coal, Power , Road transport n highway Ministries doing well. Can’t they see a single thing done well by Modi? Nothing beats this question….Aur hai kaun ?
Modi is killing every single minority in India, e.g. what is happening in Jammu and Kashmir, Army on government’s order killing innocent people who are not Terrorist, just because they are muslim.
If you throw s
Tones at a soldier you will be shot.
Shoot the idiot who throw stones at the army. End of story.
Feku will get a tight slap on his face by the people…. He will be thrown out of the run..
Before that you need a tight slap on your face. You Pakis are useless.
Rubbish! Was Modi the Chief Minister of Gujarat till he resigned to fight for Prime Ministership, Rahul Gandhi? Stop these unresearched stupid articles.
प्रिंट मोदी जी का फर्जी चैनल है।
No. Establishment Liberals in the US wanted Hillary and put its full machinery behind her. So did the Democratic Party. And she did try to beat Trump. Trump won because of the electoral college. Not the same at all.
This article is more of a show of desperation from one of the “few left liberals” than any actual assessment of Modi govt. based on facts. I always here farmer distress, foreign policy failure etc etc. Tell me if Modi gives higher MSP then this bunch of people have a problem and if not then they will shout from the rooftop Modi is anti-farmer this and that. Fact is Mr. Shivam Vij aka Diilidurust Modi has raised the performance level of governance so high that previous Manmohan and this joker Pappu does not even come near. So take a chill pill and give the so called ides that you are trying to give to this so-called pathetic opposition that we have in India , which will not think twice to break the country into language, region and caste and community without any second thought. You very smartly say bullet train work just get started. At first, tell me who had the idea to start it and get such a huge project going Modi. So keep your frustration to yourself and take a chill pill because Modi ain’t going anywhere for next 10 years.
Fact…
A not very flattering portrait of the head of the main opposition party. In numbers in Parliament, it is barely ahead of the Aiadmk – which will flip to DMK next year – and the TMC, whose head makes no secret of her prime ministerial ambitions and is a battle hardened veteran. Anti incumbency in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh is hot enough to fry an egg on. Serious planning for both these elections should have been on in right earnest. Pilot vs Gehlot, Nath vs Scindia – my vote in both cases is for generational change – this issue has to be resolved, although it will cause a lot of heartburn. Tying up with Mayawatiji is important, to get the extra 5% votes that could seal the issue. What if the general election is preponed ? Getting Maharashtra ready for the Parliament and assembly elections, for which an in principle decision has been made to ally with the NCP. Keeping an eye on UP and Bihar where the Congress itself is a bit player but the entire general election will be decided. A serious politician would have been grabbing a sandwich on the go.
Mayavati JI ? THE JI IS FABULOUS…
Your basic premise is wrong. It would be a contest between Modi and Rahul. Indians would vote for the best available group to rule for next 5 years. It is equivalent to world cup, not Bangladesh vs. Zimbabwe.
Modi is pale shadow of him of 2014? His achievements are simply great. Don’t shadow it with a few misjudgements and faulty executions. Common voters understand it well. No one wants the scamsters back again. The other like Mamata are simply horrible. Rahul or no Rahul, there is no challenge for Modi in 2019. A few voting on caste and Muslims and Christian voters will not matter. Modi Govt’s move to remind the people of the benefits gained by them ‘as a right’ is a good move. It’ll sure work.
Only idiots like you will still put a blindfold over your eyes and keep supporting a habitual liar/offender like Modi. What acheevement have you seen in 4 years of Modi’s regime? Bad mouthing previous governments works only for the first year. The next 4 years are for working and not for jetsetting around the world. But why does Modi have to work? All he has to do is continue his baseless rhetoric and morons like you will continue to vote for him.
Well said, biggest idiot of all times Mr. FEKU
Then you are an animal fit for the zoo.
Going by what you saying. None of the governments before (majority of which was formed by con-gress) have achieved anything. 70 years after freedom we still have highest poverty, a country divided by castes and politics, lack of basic infrastructure, etc. Countries that got freedom around the same time are much farther ahead in economic development.
So tell me why should I vote for Congress which has barely managed to keep this country afloat and it’s pockets full all this time.
I know Modi talks a lot. He wants people to dream big and at the same time glorifies his dreams and achievements. He may not achieve them all. But I’ll give him extra marks for trying.
What is congress upto. All they talk about is opposing what Modi wants to do or say. What are their dreams for this country. And if they do have dreams and plans for this country what were they doing for so long.
To be honest I can only judge a country’s performance on economic development and not on majority minority issues, or caste issues. And when it comes to that congress gets no marks for what it has done in last 70 years.
So may be I want to give this guy a new chance. May be he talks a lot but if he can do half of what he talks about, he will be much better then any governments till date.
And it’s not just Modi, I believe today BJP has one of the best intellectuals heading various ministries and departmens who mean work and if their leader can push them, am sure this government will do wonders.
BTW just a reminder, running a big country like India, changing things at all the levels, requires time. You can’t judge a government in 5 years for benefits that will accrue later on for the work they are doing today. (Congress reaped benefits of infrastructure work started by Vajpayee in early 2000’s)
Everyone wants spontaneous action. Like the author questioned bullet train. This country is not China where you can throw people anywhere build a road or train over that. No more explaining!
Lastly to all the haters and lovers of the government/BJP, analyze and judge yourself of the performance and not what other political parties want you to see and judge accordingly. You are educated and there’s more on your shoulders then on those poor souls who just fight for a meal and a glass of water a day. Cause your wrong decision might just cost this country it’s future.
Please don’t play into that hands of politics and vote for the person who can SHOW this country direction and can do his best for it. If Rahul can do it, he will have my vote, if Modi will continue doing it, then he will.
Well said.
Well said
People who wants Modi to change India in four years, should change their mental attitude first. Can Modi eradicate corruption if people do not change. Can Modi alone change the life style of people if people refuse to change. At least there are no scams for the past four years. That itself is a great acheivement. People talk about GST and demonitisation as a failure. I do not say they are a great success. But there are not complete failures even as most opposition parties say. People who wants Modi to be out should answer what have we acheived in past 70 years and who is the next alternative.
True
You are the number one idiot who does not know ABCD of Economics.
Do we have another Amaritya Sen with name Ram?
Hang on to your fickle opinion and you will not be able to stop the truth from prevailing. If you have to call your PM a habitual liar then it is clear where you belong. Hate mongers will no stop Modi. Till date India has not seen a PM working so hard to deliver. But people like you are so habituated of slavery that you dont even know what it will be like to be a citizen of a nation where people live with pride. You would love a govt who will loot and let you take a small bite, turning the population of this blessed land into destitutes. But you will see Modi back in 2019.
Mr P, We do not like have a Lotaa in hand for toilet behind the Congress house Maidan, The Dynast and British style Party which even not provide toilet and cleanliness in 70 yrs , who fool will again to lose the vote for these pidis again after suffering of 70 yrs?
True
Pappu is great,long live pappu???
Whatever is governed is best.For Rahul party is to pass time and to satisfy his false ego.His status is less than of leaders of splinter groups with no skill of a *TEAM LEADER*.Thanks
