BJP minus Hindutva.






I time and again use to confess, I hate mythology and the spiritual talks kill me. But does that mean, I am anyway shallower ? Do you conclude with my negligence towards these, that I can't be of any solid notion towards an aspect ? Is it so ? You morons have already built a strong point some where deep inside your cerebrum ,that understanding India means to understand the Hindu mythology and neither can anybody understand the later skipping former.

Another day, when in a comment on Facebook, I wrote: "wreck this congress government and substitute it with 'BJP minus radical Hinduism' ", I got three texts back on my cellphone. One of them asked, "Do you think, After Subtracting, Hinduism from BJP, BJP does exist even? " I couldn't send an instant reply to her. But, I had to think over it and I was able to answer her after a detailed analysis of the BJP and its agenda.

It is indeed obvious, that BJP has its image as a Hindu political party. But let me put up a question, suppose,
I'm leading a political party and will put before you the agenda of just making Hindu community stronger and will also assure a temple at Ayodhya. Another day, other person comes leading another political party, and assures you, economic development, better roads, technological development, uninterrupted power supply and education for all.
At the polling booth, for which party, will you press the EVM ? Atleast not for the former.
But in the recent past, India has seen the Prime minister from that party. Do you think people of India are so feeble that they lack even the simple sense of judgement. Certainly not. And what does that mean, BJP is not only about Hinduism and the Ayodhya temple. And if it would have been, do you think Kishanganj would have voted for BJP in the Bihar assembly elections which has 70% muslim population ?

Infact, in the Bihar elections, BJP won 91 of the 102 seats it contested. Do you think people have just voted it to ensure one ram temple in each of its constituency. No, people believe that, if BJP subtracts Hinduism from its agenda, it becomes their favorite. For the election campaigning, Narendra Modi was not called because he is regarded as a Hindu icon, neither BJP discussed the Ayodhya temple issue during it's entire campaigning in Bihar. And this bore the fruits. People sweeped the way for BJP because then BJP proved to be the best option.

In the past also, whenever BJP insisted on its, orthodox Hinduism views, it was wrecked. A couple of years ago, after the Kandhamal riots, BJP has to loose it's share from Satta in Orissa ! Kalyan Singh lost in UP.


People take Narendra Modi as an orthodox Hindu leader. I wondered then how is he the Chief minister of a state for so long. I surfed his official website, and i found the answers. He has done fantabulous work in the female literacy, Special Economic Zone and agriculture. Which means it is impossible for a party to win the hearts of the people on this orthodox folio.

And yes, when BJP deletes this Hinduism agenda it becomes the strongest contender to rule the nation. The present government lacks the unshaken hands to initiate. India has so far conducted 6 nuclear tests out of which 5 have been conducted in 5 years tenure of the BJP government. Don't you think US hadn't tried to forbid India from doing so. Even The then prime minister turned down the US request to sign the CTBT. Isn't this a sign of strong governance.
Today, in USA, one or other Indian citizen is stripped at the airport every hour for the sake of their security. Even top officials like Meera Shankar and Hardeep Puri were asked for security check.

Isn't this an act of sheer coward that, we at India welcome Hillary Clinton without passing her through any security check who is at a post at par as George Fernandes was then, when he was security checked by the TSA.

A simple solution, every day the Ambassador of USA to India visits the south block in Delhi. Just one day, check him thoroughly in an typical Indian style at the South Block entrance i.e shake him from top to bottom. USA will learn the lessons. But no. Present UPA government can't dare do so. What will be the fate of nuclear deal then ?

And so I put my step forward and support "BJP minus radical Hinduism".

I am also in support for BJP minus radical Hinduism.
Yes BJP won many seats in Bihar but the primary reason would be the lack of emergence of Congress and Lalu being ineffective.
For me Congress and BJP all are same , i don't read parties agenda because they never follow it.
If BJP or Congress comes in Power its more of a same Corruption and Inflation would still be there.
What we need is a rigid leadership someone from Young lot.
I would not like to see Advani or Manmohan run again for Prime Ministership rather i would like Ravishankar Prasad or Kapil Sibbal.

ashesh ...congrats for your very well written blog.
I am very glad to comment on this particular blog as this touched my feeling which i want to convey since 26/11 . The clear winning tendency of bjp in various states is the change of era what the people of that particular region has observed and just by casting their vote in such a orthodox party they have shown that congress secularism mask can not bring desired goal to country which this :BJP has brought in different section of society and country.

apart from this i just want to say ... methodology is not important rather target should be more concerned .as in case of gujrat ...the avg income of people has raised from 100000 to 500000 rupees just in five years ..it can be called miracle but reality is something lyk that ,,,,,bihar jumped from 26 rank in GDP to 2 nd in 5 years ....is what bjp is .....

i hope time will teach us that congress was a subject to discuss way back in 19th century its 20th , so change is required ....and drama of congress at such high level ( RAJA..) should be stopped if u wish to see INDIA as a country of self sufficient ,efficient and roaring with pride .

bjp minus hinduism or bjp strongly with hinduism....both will do....but this mediocre BJP wont remain intact in itself in first place...leave alone to rule the country....

and this present govt. give reservation to muslims and OBCs, this offer muslims free pilgrimage, this offers muslims....scholarships....it encourages opening of minority educartional institutions( in which 50% of the input must be from muslim, or the religion for which it has been dedicated), it counts people on the basis of thir religion and caste, and gives undue preference to some

the riot in 1947 occured under Congress rule, hindu sikh (1984)occurred in Congress rule,bhagalpur riot occured in congress rule, the, cristian hindu riot in orissa occurred under congress rule, only one godhra occurred in BJP rule and even in reign of 15 years...and we call BJP non secular, and this govt secular?????


we cry in the name of coffin scams in kargil, while, telgi occurred in Congress rule, 2G occurred in Congress rule, chara occurred in Congress rule, a stampede occurs on the station of Capital of India, and the railway minister of union of india says, these are common and general occurrences, the terrorist attacks rose like any thing in congress rule, the MNERGS scam occurred in Congress rule, the prices rose like anything, the Union Minster for HOME DEPT. was unable to control the terror attacks and had to resign but in vain, as the nation saw yet another inefficient minister replacing him....the PRIME MINISTER of India has to get permission to do anything,

the naxal unrest, the kashmir unrest, the NE problem and blockade, terror attacks, Humiliation of Indians outside including Australia, America, Humiliation of Ambassadors, Humiliation of Rajghats by american Dogs, occurred or increased astronomically in Congress rule and we say This Govt is secular, non corrupt and social, and BJP a non secular, corrupt party....

it makes me think and also lament on we the INDIANs thinking when i see the fact that out of all the states the top 2 most rapidly developing states with a GDP of near double digits is ruled by BJP, namely GUJRAT and BIHAR.....

something to think upon dear.....

Juvenilia welcomes you.
Agreed with the point, that people will be having a comparable choice when BJP deletes Hinduism from its agenda.
keep visiting.

Ashesh Raghav said...

Read your blog as well. Agreed with the facts and the deeds of this feeble government. Will be glad to see a post on, how Anubhav sees, that BJP with Hinduism will also work.All these scams not only falsifies the government's honest work but also puts up a blot on the face of India in general and the persons like Manmohan Singh who is known for his honesty in particular. In the corruption index too, the government negligence or the helplessness to sue the defaulters have put Indian on a downfall.
On an another note, I wish to ask you to recheck the authenticity of some of the facts stated above.

Ashesh Raghav said...

Juvenilia welcomes you !

Brother why don't you pen down your thoughts as well. Will be glad to see your take on these issues. You are known for being witty and straight forward and so i guess your writings will also be pinching and an honest work.

BJP is recovering and has realised that Hindutva won't work for long if not supported with efficient ideologies for a prosperous India. A big leap for it is the jump of Bihar in GDP from 26 to 2. Agree with this. What now BJP should refrain doing is, it should allow any blot to be put on it's face as it happened in Yedyurappa.

Keep visiting.

Ashesh Raghav said...

Juvenilia welcomes you !

Glad that you too support BJP minus Hinduism. But I couldn't find any reason of why you changed later and said, For you BJP and Congress both are the same.

Any way for your take on Bihar, i would just like to say that, saying BJP won because, Congress and Lalu are inefficient is as exciting to say as saying, in a game of two, Team A didn't win but Team B lost.
I bend to agree with you on the issue of giving India a young leader. This is what India desperately wants at the time.

on how congress was related to orissa riots and fodder scam:
central govt was congress and it did not send its paramilitary FORCES in time even when the state govt was asking for it.....it took center 3-4 days to decide on its course in Orissa

and and in case of fodder it was congress supporting RJD, that withdrew its support just six months before election just to rejoin it again after election

anand poonia said...

yup.... read........ nicely written,,,,,,,,
bt i dont think bjp gonna minus hinduism ,, as itz supported by sangh,,,,,,,,,,, and as far as bjp's strong leadership is , as u said,,,, i dont agree,,,,,,, remember kandhar...........and take the example of nobel peaceprize feciliation,,,,,,,,,,,,, india attended despite china's threats of consequences,,,,,, isnt it a bold leadership.............

Ashesh Raghav said...

Juvenilia welcomes you Anand !
Its not a question, whether BJP is going to minus hinduism from its agenda or not. The post is all about, BJP should delete it for the sake of the prosperity of our nation without any threat from any communal force.

And regarding your question on the release of three militants following Kandhar hijack. I would like to bring your kind attention towards the release of 5 millitants by the VP Singh Government, following the kidnap of Rubaiya Sayeed, the daughter of Mufti Mohammad Sayeed, the then Home minister of India. Not so sure, but more than 100 passengers' lives were on risk. Indian Goverment didn't have any other option if it had to save their lives. Moreover, jaswant Singh was going an official visit to kandhar, and the militants were put in the carriage of the same aircraft just for the sake of minimising the government expenditure which was later publicised by the opposition as Jaswant Singh accompanying those militants.

Regarding, India's participation in the Nobel Peace prize event in Oslo. Do you seriously, compare it's maganamity with Atal Bihari Vajpayee neglecting USA's demand of signing CTBT. Had you given examples of govt of India providing security to the Tibetan protestors who were protesting for their freedom in New Delhi the day prior to the visit of Wen Jia Bao. Or, the example of giving security and refuge to Dalai Lama, the protagonist of the Tibetan freedom movement in India despite threats from China. I would have praised.

Moreover, Chinese government just asked India not to attend the Nobel peace prize event which was pointless and was also scheduled in neither of the territories. So, if the Indian ambassador to Norway attended the nobel peace prize event in Oslo despite of threats from China, it's no act of bravery. Do ponder once again.

nice one.....

I think what Nitish's governance have done outstanding work...
I think in today's scenario(after Bihar election) no matter which party one belongs to...but what matters is that.......he should be able to fulfill need of the common people...doesnt matter whether he is an orthodox(like narendra modi) or not but he should definitely do something to help the common people....and their needs should not be overlooked......
