Captain Sahab,
I do appreciate your sense of frustration and anguish in the way things are happening in the BJP.
After giving some thoughts to the happenings of the last few weeks, I feel that it is a result of the clash between the younger generation and the old guards. How far the old guards will be relevant post election is yet to be seen . It is perhaps the expectation of the younger generation of voters to see new , young and dynamic leaders post the next general elections . Another aspect worth noting is that the religious agenda is not being given any prominence in the electoral speeches of the major political parties including the BJP. As the election date is coming nearer the various political parties are busy projecting their election agenda and at the same time trying to form alliances. However, as the things stand at present the chances of the BJP emerging as the largest party is almost certain. The only uncertain aspect is whether it will be able to cross the 273 mark on its own or will fall short of that number.
If the unexpected does happen, the Government will be a strong one free from coalition compulsions. In that case, some drastic measures for better governance of the nation cannot be ruled out.
