Sunday in Goa(June 9,2013) has become a landmark for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Modi as well. The rippling effects of Modi’s appointment as the Chairman of the campaign committee of the BJP for the 2014 Lok Sabha election, surfaced very next day on Monday followed by the Advani’s Resignation from all posts of the party.
Being seen as the most significant development ahead of polls due next year, the Goa conclave seems posing a rather intriguing lights(red lights instead) that might compel Modi to take many detour to 7, RCR. Anyway, In most likelihood the next announcement from the saffron party is sure to pose him as its prime ministerial candidate for the 2014 mahasangram.
With the Goa development, the BJP’s patron partner in Bihar, JDU got a jolt. The strongest objection from Nitish Kumar in April in New Delhi regarding the selection of prime ministerial candidate for forthcoming general election 2014 made no point for the saffron stalwarts. With the loss of Congress at two LS seats in by-election last week, and the loss of Nitish’s candidate PKShahi at Maharajganj the Saffron party regained the confidence it lost in Yeddy’s Karnataka last month.
In the party like BJP which boasts of being most democratic, rallying around a person is as rare as it is discussed- why. From the mainstream media to social media, from the party stalwarts to the opposition everyone seems crazy about Narendra Modi. He cannot be neglected. Following Modi is in vogue, and as the most kaddawar leader of the party Advani being sidelined for Modi, it reports a +ve for Pneumonitis Namonitis.
To those saffron stalwart who perform a pirouette around Modi are actually tired of the political system. Besides, we as a normal apolitical citizen of India, have been facing the heat for quite long time, looking forward for a promising leader. The gravity & the energy Modi enjoys interprets a promising system distinguished from a system of promises. And this is why a repeated verse of youngistan by a young Rahul went unnoticed in a young India.
In the present scenario, it is diffcult to interpret whether this Sunday In Goa (Sundays are a weekly event in Goa with legendary psychedelic parties) moment is really going to prove a path-maker or braker for Modi in the long run. The galloping Modi has to think beyond even if he could successfully incarnate as the next Prime Minister of India.
If political analysts to be believed, neither the Congress nor the BJP will able to make government on their own. Even if the secular and communal arguments set aside, it would not an easy task for Modi to keep his own house(BJP) in order. In loyalty parlance he is not such lucky what Gandhis’ enjoy in Congress. Moreover, even in the case of Modi become the Prime Minister, he will have to rely on mercurial partners from Didi in W.Bengal to Amma in Tamilnadu. Therefore, In all likelihood the Goa event might be a T20 win for Modi, but 2014 is a test instead.
