Divide India, Defeat Modi




Two forces are at play in India - Making India and Breaking India.  As these 2 forces take each other head-on, tensions are natural to rise. As one force gets stronger, the other gets more and more frustrated.

Let's analyze these forces...

Making India - The purpose of politics is not power but to bring about social and economic changes in a peaceful manner. Ever since the Narendra Modi government has taken the oath, there has been a relentless focus to bring about social and economic changes. 

Swach Bharat focusses making India clean and healthy. Jan Dhan brings aims to bring about financial inclusion. Pension and Insurance schemes aim to provide financial security to every citizen. Digital India aims to make governance transparent, accountable and accessible to all. Make in India aims to change the fundamentals of our economy by making manufacturing as important as services and agriculture. 

Making India is about laying a foundation of a strong nation. It is neither populist or easy, In fact, all of the initiatives will only pay off in the long term. 

If the Making India forces win, the country will come together to give Narendra Modi another term. 

Seeing the inevitable danger of losing 2019, a momentum is being built... let's analyze this force of Breaking India 

1) Dividing Hindus - The first component of Breaking India is dividing Hindus. With 80% of the population still Hindu, its impossible to win an election if even half of the Hindus unite. Amplifying caste divisions remains of the most potent weapons divide. Getting one caste to fight another is one sure way to divide Hindus.

Be it the Hardik Patel issue or the Hyderabad suicide case, caste tensions will be leveraged. Next is to attack culture - make a Hindu feel ashamed of his identity. You will see how any and every cultural practice will be attacked. It will start will terming every Hindu festival as harming the environment or any sport as a symbol of animal cruelty. A culture that worships shakti will be termed anti-women. 

2) Polarise Minorities - Scare the minorities to create a vote bank. From church attacks to Dadri, media will be used to create a FUD in the minds of the minorities.

3) Staff all Reforms - From parliament to Nobel laureates like Amartya Sen will be used to staff any and every reform - economic or social. The goal is to distract the government from focussing on core issues. 

There is only one goal behind the Breaking India forces - defeat Modi, even if it means that they end up destroying India.  Breaking India forces are well connected and funded. 

So who will win this war? If history is anything to go by, dharma always wins. 

Narendra Modi needs to add one more 'D' to his 3D model of Democracy, Demand and Demography - the 4th 'D' being dharma.  

धर्मो रक्षति रक्षितः

Dharma always protects those that protect Dharma.

Mauka Mauka for the Enemy Within

Two things unite a nation as diverse as India - culture and cricket. When any nation takes part in a world tournament and does well very in the initial stages, one would expect the people of that nation to back the team .... Over the past few weeks we had many intellectuals and prominent media houses hoping that India looses the semi finals against Australia ... It started with noted sociologist Ashis Nandy .... According to Nandy, India is suffering from too much national pride and winning the world cup will make it worse... This was followed by a national poll by a leading print magazine Outlook which asked .. "Should India win the World Cup ? "  You can take the survey here Outlook not only echoed Nandy's sentiments but went on to add that "winning the world cup might just make India's macho and hyper masculine nationalism more intense. Over the last few months, there seems to have been an effort to make a pluralistic India into a homogeniz...

BJP Karyakarta has Won

The earliest memory I have of a BJP karyakarta was of my mother''s colleague and friend called as Rajani aunty . Rajni aunty and her family were dedicated, committed karyakartas of the RSS, Jan Sangh and then the BJP.  Their commitment was so complete that they made every contribution they could - tan, man and dhan. Even in the 1980's when the BJP was a very young party, Rajani aunty and her family stood like a steady rock. When Vajpayee lost in the 1984 election, there were tears in her eyes. Rajani aunty used to work as a professor at the Sophia college in Mumbai. Once she asked a rather innocent question in the GK paper - "Who is the founder of the RSS ? ". The secular Catholic management took a very hard view and she was forced to quit her job. For 2 years she did not have a job but never once regretted her commitment to the ideology. Through her trials , she always stood by the Sangh. Her family for generations and decades stood by the Sangh no matte...
