Masters of strategy BJP is sarcastically christened as one and half man party The party has systematically tried to decimate Congress and its leadership using dynasty as the tool It is consistent and determined to remove Congress as most credible obstacle at all India level They definitely have a thinking cell in place so also a well oiled propaganda machine Where they cannot win by ballot it is defection by poaching and luring After all everything is fair in politics as in love and war When India is burning with serious issues BJP strategist douse the fire by raising diversionary issues at all time's. Forget about corruption , unemployment .price rise , fuel etc the press , social media is kept engaged with diversionary issues They may be short of tall leaders, which in any way not their first love to promote.There is no dissent on any issues and they are shut immediately and none is authorised to comment on any policy programmes, but parrot verbatim the official line. All attempts to criticism is brazenly out with impunity The opposition is kept at bay, divided confusedly by resorting to witchunt thro ED CBI etcwhile it secretely plans its strategy While opposition is gropping in the dark about fielding a suitable candidate for the President, it was assumed wrongly that present incumbent would get a second term.THE OPPOSITION EFFORTS have miserable failed to propose a willing candidate so far.In a bolt from blue BJP have sprung a surprise choice that has left opposition gasping for breath.Any choice by opposition is bound to be a successful failure and will be an academic exercise of democratic rights
Investment in thinking cap, propaganda keeping dissent at bay and confusing the opposition is new strategy of BJP yielding dividends The accent is on winning elections and which they gloat about is their Trump card of popularity Nelson Lopes Chinchinim
