Unfortunately, it is a divided house and most of the important leaders are busy handling the MP bribing case, with all its holes and loopholes. It only shows that the present leadership is a divided lot incapable of fixing its priorities. The return of some former members into the party fold in UP is out of their necessity for political survival. The emergence of BJP has greatly changed the character of politics in that State and so it is best to get under the umbrella of big and organised parties.
All must have noticed that the general public is not very apprehensive of the HYDE Act or the Nuclear Deal. This is precisely the reason why no public demonstration has been organised on a nation wide scale. In fact, the political parties who oppose the deal on the floor of the parliament or before the microphone are fully aware that the issue is a non starter as far as the ordinary citizen is concerned. Therefore, they have so far not called for any Bharat Bundh or any such direct action. Let us hope in the next few months the BJP is able to revitalise itself and play a more purposeful role as a major and responsible political party.If the present state continues, I am afraid it will not be able to play any major role in the formation of the next government or so that matter in the governance of the Nation for the next five years.

Problem is not about the BJP but it is the ruling alliance which has lost all the 10 state elections. It does not have a majority in the house and people have lost hopes regarding price rise and governance. Do they need Bharat Bundh to show to the people what is happening to the country
