The top leadership of the BJP minus LK Advani, who brought up BJP from mere two in 1984 to 186 in 2001 has been, guided by a false notion that with Narendra at the helm of affairs BJP will be to cling to power at the centre. That will be proved wrong. A country having 1.25 billion people cannot be ruled by a party, which believes in one philosophy. Advani understands all that is sweeping in the minds of the voters. The others in BJP do not. BJP will do better with Advani at the helm of affairs. He was right when he said the projection of leadership should be done after the end of the state assembly elections in five states including Mizoram. Moreover the ruling party is not declaring its prime ministerial candidate. Will Modi stop campaigning for the party if he is not given what he wants? His action and belief are tantamount to what we call dictatorial way of functioning. BJP leaderships did not attempt to weigh the mood of the voters when it declared Modi as its prime Ministerial candidate. Frankly speaking BJP will be reduced to where it belongs after the projection of NAMO as the prime ministerial candidate. After all where lies the necessity for projection of prime ministerial candidate, when the candidate for top executive post is to be decided by the elected representatives. Advani is questioning with his stand on leadership if the party suffers colossal loss in the five states, where elections are due, after the projection of Modi as the prime ministerial candidate.. Cautious move is required. Jumpy decision makes no gain. The importance of a political party is enhanced when it works in keeping with the interest of the masses. Every single voter understands that the problems confronting the country cannot be solved by a single party that rules the country. Aspirations of the masses are rising high. Every single state will want the problems confronting them to be treated on priority basis. Tamils want their problems to be considered; similarly the other states have similar demand. Nagas want their problems considered by the Union Government. Manipur too has vast problems which require attention of the Union Government. Will BJP be able to take care of all these if they remain concerning Hindutva. Hence the observation that no matter whether Modi is declared for the top position or not the voters mind will not change. The party that declared prime ministerial candidate will suffer colossal loss after the 2014 elections.
