BJP WIN IN BIHAR IS DEFEAT OF PSEUDO-SECULARISM – ERA OF ALLIANCE-POLITICS SEEMS ENDING
Bureau,Odishabarta
DELHI:Election-results of Bihar state-assembly and by-elections for some other state-assemblies further establish that voters are now afraid of return of pseudo-secular politics while despite anti-incumbency factor, BJP led the poll-victory in all states where elections were held.
It was purely BJP win and not that of NDA in Bihar when BJP emerged as a a big brother with 74 seats while its ally JDU got just 43 seats even though both the allies got almost equal share of seats to be contested in pre-poll alliance. It is definite that BJP could have got even more than total tally of alliance at 125 seats if it would have contested alone. BJP had already bitter experience of pre-poll alliance in Maharashtra where the party though being the largest single party was deceived by its ally just for being power-hungry.
Likewise RJD under young captaincy of Tejaswy Yadav could have gathered much more than present tally of 110 of combined alliance where RJD got 75 seats while Congress could get just 19 seats out of 70 contested. RJD tally could be much higher if it would have not allied with Congress, the party losing its ground day-by-day in national politics because of its failed dynastic leadership. Before giving big chunk of 70 seats for contest to Congress, Tejaswy Yadav should have studied similar UP model where Akhilesh Yadav gave big seat-share in pre-poll alliance in the state.
