The Janata Pariwar

                                    The Janata Pariwar

            Modi to Nitish:- How many seats you have won.
             Nitish to Modi:- Two seats.
            Modi to Nitish :- I also won two seats,Vadodara and Varanasi.
             Nitish to Modi :- I resigned as Chief Minister.
             Modi to Nitish:- I had also to resign.
     This was the popular gossip circulating on Twitter and Facebook those days.I had flown to Canada on May 10,2014 in the evening when Supreme Court closed for summer vacation to spend our days with daughter,son in law and grand daughter.There was excitement on our part to reach Canada but I was missing the excitement of being in India when the election result was to come on May 16.My daughter had opted for some Indian channels to let me watch the election results.I sat down in front of TV on May 15,2014 @ 09.00 PM.I was sure Narendra Modi would be in the front seat but never expected BJP alone will bag 282 seats on its own and NDA will reach the mark of 336.I had none to share my excitement as it beyond mid night and all were fast asleep in the house.
          More than the surprise of Modi single handedly beating the opponents, it came as a shock that Congress got stuck at 44 Pan India but lost 20 seats in UP winning only two,SP could win only 5 family seats,Mayawati,DMK and Congress in TN drew a blank.BJP went to win 73 seats in UP.Lalu could win only 4 seats and Congress winning only 2 in Bihar.Same story was repeated in other States.It was an unprecended results giving hard time to all political pundits to explain the results.
          I remember Modi in his interview to Rajat Sharma of India TV had said that he was a student of political science and in this election arithmetics was not going to work,it will be political chemistry which will show the result.I was also not very sure that Modi's predictions would work.Mind Modi's words not arithmatics but chemistry.Still the old leaders of Janata Pariwar are trying to come together and prove that it will be arithmetics which will work and not chemistry.
          Friends will recollect mid Seventy when students agitation started from Gujarat travelled to Bihar and Late JP took over the mantor of agitation and challenged Mrs.Indira Gandhi who in the wake of Allahabad High Court Judgment disqualifying her had to impose emergency in the summers of 1975 ,bolt all the opposition leaders in jail,Sanjaya Gandhi's emergency excesses started taking its toll.When she lifted the emergency and announce national election,JP's initiatives brought all opposition parties under one umbrella and it was called Janata Party which won the national election unseating Mrs.Indira Gandhi.Sanjaya Gandhi and Indira Gandhi lost their own elections.It was peoples participation that gave Janata Party its majority,peoples aspiration had come true.Mulayam,Lalu,Nitish,Subodh Kant Sahay and Ram Vilas Paswan and others were part of that victory march under the leaderships of Jaya Prakash Narayan.There was not an iota of Caste and Communal appeal in 1977,it was purely peoples verdict against Mrs.Gandhi's high handedness.
         Now the same defunct leaders are trying to cobble up against Modi on the basis of 2014's arithmetical integration and not the chemistry with the people.They who abused each other profusely in the last few decades are joining their hands together in the name secularism and caste equation.All those leaders who ascended the Victory Fort with the blessings of a saint like politician JP would certainly fail to ascend even one step on the ladder with their caste and communal appeal.It is only a last resort of arithmetical politics that they are trying to cobble up against Modi.Each one of them have lost their sheen.Nitish - Lalu combine can only add up some percentage of votes in the name of caste appeal but still chemistry will have final laugh at them.Would Mayawati shake hand with Mulayam in UP,would Mamata join hands with the left in W.B.? Grapes are really sower, as it can not be reached.Modi's majic is still working and once his efforts start surfacing on the ground,it will add miracle to Modi's success.He is working hard with his ministers,not even a small scam has surfaced in the last 7 months,nature is also trying to help him such as Petroleum prices falling internationally,inflation index falling drastically,production index rising up.Modi is burning midnight oil in implementing the stuck up $ 300 billion projects.His "Make in India " has to take shape and foreign investments have to start pouring in.Once the results are visible with naked eye,Janata Pariwars cobbling up will not have any appeal to the people.
          These Janata Pariwar leaders must not forget that each one of them are egoists and fell apart because each one of them wanted to have grip on the party,failing which they formed their own party and parted company.The all jointly and severaly damaged the Janata Party and broke the party into pieces.Now,they all want to join the pieces of the broken glass removing even the mark of joining,which to my mind appears to be impossible.Even God will not save them.
