The fact that no MPs contested in Telangana could win an MLA seat is not good news for the BJP. Now they left with sitting MPs who can not really succeed in a contest, which will be hard as INC, unlike TRS in 2019, would like to win MP seats in 2014.

Yagnasri ji,


It looks more like a housekeeping exercise to me

Those elected are being accommodated in the states and may be eased out into retirement soon enough, and those who do not make it, well, the margdarshak mandal is always there for them, the same margdarshak mandal where LKA reigns supreme

Fresh faces will replace them for the LS elections in 2024.

No loss of face, but only honour and respect for services rendered...

What are the odds for KCR and YSRC becoming part of NDA before 2024 or at least before the election??
Will BJP take that chance with the local satraps like the GOWDAS in Karnataka
This will add lots more percentage of vote share in AP/Telangana and help with 400par goal!!
Apart from YSR the other two don’t have anything to do in the state government so can’t hold BJP to ransom
And the two local satraps will definitely want to save their vote base from INC and dotty alliance
Now that KCR has literally and figuratively been broken would be swallow pride and join NDA

What is the gameplan, political scenario after elections. The new geopolitical landscape enunciated by Dr. Ankit Shah says this century belongs to India. Dr. Ankit's predictions are mind-boggling, seemingly improbable yet not implausible. One cannot miss the fact that things are moving steadily in that direction. Kangress is completely clueless about what they will do next. PM Modi is on target to get 350+. CM Revanth Reddy of Telengana was a follower of PM ABV. In Kerala there is a huge sentiment to throw out the communist govt. TN might throw up a surprise. Karnataka is realizing the dufus kangress rule.

Shri Ram Ayodhya temple opening in 2024 will unleash a renewed interest in Sanatani Dharma worldwide. The ex-muslim movement in India (and Puke land too) is gathering steam, with youth questioning the tired sermons of mullahs/momins and the desert crude culture of stealing/raping/mayhem/stone age practices. In J&K the Barelvi muslims sing songs in masjids. UAE & Bahrain are with Israel in the hamas tussle. Many muslims don't go to masjids. In Iran many (mainly youth) want to go back to their roots of zorastrian faith and good percentage (>40%) ignore mullahs/ayatollahs. Victoria Secret products has the highest sale amongst Iranian women.

I have looked at seat wise data from LS 2019 (with 2014 data to validate some assumptions), to understand what BJP might realistically expect.

My main assumption is that a lead of over 10% in vote share in 2019 is difficult to beat, if nothing extraordinary happens between now and poll date
and if there is no major surprise in candidate selection.
Some data:

The NDA got 251 seats with a lead of over 10% in vote share (typically over 100,000 votes).
This 251 includes 18 seats by Shiv Sena in Mah and 6 by the LJP in Bihar. I assume they will be part of NDA in 2024.
It excludes 10 seats won by JDU (over 10% margin) and 2 by Akalis, since they are not part of the NDA.

251 seats should be the lower limit of what NDA can expect, unless they get their alliance arithmetic completely wrong, in which case they can potentially lose 42 seats between Mah, Bihar and Punjab (assuming their NDA partners votes got transferred to BJP in 2019 and there will be no
transfer in 2024. This (209) is a worst case scenario.

There are 41 seats which NDA (almost all BJP) won by less than 5% and are therefore vulnerable.
There are 28 seats which UPA won by under 5% This is the potential upside for the NDA.

Without an alliance there is no chance of ANY seat in TN or Seemandhra. The leads of the DMK alliance were far too big. Given that the state changes hands with every election, an AIADMK alliance has a change in several seats, but not the BJP alone.
There is no realistic chance of more than 1 seat in Kerala or 4 in Telengana.

My sense is for 2024 to be safe, BJP has to have an alliance in Andhra (TDP?) and in TN.

[uddu]

BJP must experiment by fielding strong leaders in seats that they have earlier won. Fielding Nirmala.S in Kanyakumari and S Jaishankar in Thiruvananthapuram could bring two seats. Both seats being close to each other will help as well.

[ricky_v]

some thoughts on the elections and some of the probable cm names:

first off, let me say that the bjp as a party (nm-as version) has given a lot of cinematic moments in the last 9 years, the latest being the suspense on cm candidature on 3 states, i dont believe such level of suspense on the leadership has happened since the formation of cg, jk and uk in 2002 and before that when states were being formed / carved off; this is a pivotal moment for the bjp to make a structural / organisational decisions that will hold the party in good stead for the next 20-30 years.

looking at the states:
1) rj

previous - vasundhra raje, should not be selected imo, there are reports that she supported the rebels that cut down the expected bjp list from 130 to the current 115, she was probably aiming for the 95 cut off for the bjp as a whole where she could have demonstrated to the party that only she would be the cm candidate acceptable to the rebels, is also blamed for the loss of satish poonia (ex state party president) and ravindra rathore (the lop). She also supported the gehlot government during the pilot coup and saved his government; in her previous term, she did initiate some reforms such as for labour laws but was unable to be voted back in.

probable names - om mathur - should not be, first, he has no government experience but vast party / organisation experience, has been involved in strengthening the party cadre in many states, he was a rajya sabha mp but his term has ended, apparently, when he went to meet nm to discuss an extension for his mp seat, he was advised that he has been identified for a separate role in the party, the most obvious choice would be that of the next bjp president, nadda was due to retire last year but was given an extension looking at the 23 and 24 elections, he is expected to step down after may 24.

if you look at the performances as well, amit shah was the main incharge of mp, nadda of rajasthan and mathur of chattisgarh; of the 3, the bjp's performance in rj was the poorest, mp was a record victory and cg was snatching victory from the jaws of certain defeat. for election duties, shah clearly takes over some responsibilities from nadda, something that he started doing with more intent after the hp loss where nadda hails from.

balaknath - should not be, people compare him to yogi adityanth only because they belong to the same nath community, but there is vast difference, ya was a lok sabha mp when he was 25 and he was elected 5 times, plus he has/d his own "outfit", the hindu yuva vahini, in the gorakhpur region and was a minor leader in his own right independent of the party support. balaknath has won a legislative from tijara by ~6000 votes, should be kept for the future but definitely not for now

2) mp

previous - shivraj singh - mamaji has done well especially in the agriculture sector, if you look at the produce data for the past decade or so, mp has been steadily climbing charts in most produce and is now the largest producer for many items, credit must be given to mamaji for this accomplishment. Yet, he had to resort to basically buying votes and increasing their value as well with his schemes to ensure victory, this does not bode well for the organisation as a whole.

i remember i visited some relatives in bhopal in early 2000's, there was a daily and i mean daily load shedding activities in the residential areas during the day and that too in peak summer, from about 9 in the morning to 2 in the afternoon, sometimes more, but seldom less. Coming from a state where electricity cut was a rare event, this felt very distinctive; i mention this because the kamalnath government that was in power for about 15-18 months reminded people of the good old days, especially the industrialists and was a major reason why inc lost the by-elections then after jyotiraditya's rebellion and now after such a long anti-incumbency. The youth who had no recollection of mp in the early 2000's and who had only seen mamaji's governance, got a taste in 2018-19, and hurriedly voted for the bjp this go.

3) cg

previous - raman singh - by all accounts, he was absent on the ground in cg these past 5 years after losing the election in 2018, and thus should not be a candidate.

from the names being considered, one i hear is that of op chauhan, is young, ex-ias, close to amit shah and has been involved on the ground for the past decade or so.

another is their current state party president, arun sao, he will be tasked for bringing in the central agricultural / rice belt which is currently the stronghold of the inc.

most likely it would be ex-mp/mos for tribal affairs, renuka singh, is a tribal and besides bringing in the votes of north cg / sarguja and south cg / bastar, will also positively influence tribal votes in other states.

Now that KCR has literally and figuratively been broken would be swallow pride and join NDA

In TS, BJP should be fine with KCR/TRS/BRS/whatever it is called today to be part of the NDA alliance. But in AP, YSJ/YSRCP is a strict no-no. YSJ has ruined AP; ideally, he should be behind bars. There is plenty of anti-incumbency against YSJ in AP. I would prefer an alliance with CBN/TDP + Jana Sena/Pavan Kalyan.

Just my 2 paise.

Some sobering data points in an otherwise excellent performance by the BJP

MP
2018 vote share: BJP: 41.02% ; Congress: 40.89%
2023 vote share: BJP: 48.62% ; Congress: 40.45%

While the BJP's vote share increased significantly, it came at the expense of other parties. Congress vote share remained constant

Rajasthan
2018 vote share: BJP: 38.08% ; Congress: 39.30%
2023 vote share: BJP: 41.69% ; Congress: 39.53%

BJP's vote share increased (though not as much as in MP) but Congress vote share also increased!

Chattisgarh
2018 vote share: BJP: 32.97% ; Congress: 43.04%
2023 vote share: BJP: 46.27% ; Congress: 42.23%

A significant gain by BJP, but once again at the expense of other parties. This is the only state in which Congress lost close to a 1% vote share

Some takeaways

1) Congress Mukth Bharath, even electorally, is quite some distance away. C-system Mukth Bharath is even further away
2) Its clear that Modi's charisma was the X factor. This is not to downplay the effort of lakhs of Karyakartas but he continues to be the one who tips the scales. I cannot imagine BJP winning these 3 states if we had an ABV or an Advani as the PM
3) Hindu causes (like Kamlesh Tiwari killing or Nuh violence) have played a factor but not enough of a factor. If the Congress vote share was significantly eroded, we could have come to that conclusion. But it actually increased in Rajasthan
4) Dis-satisfaction with Congress, where they were incumbents, was not significant
5) All these states have a BJP leadership vacuum, with the possible exception of Shivraj Chouhan. Which explains the BJP's inordinate time to choose a CM candidate. This is HUGE problem area for the BJP. Their inability to groom local leaders and forever depending on Modi's popularity. None of the 3 next-gen BJP charismatic leaders Yogi, Himanta & Annamalai are originally from BJP. This is quite a telling indictment. This also means that the BJP should aggressively court talent from outside, who are ideologically aligned
6) BJP has done a piss poor job of dismantling the Congress in these states. That job has to begin now. Create Bheda, arrest them for corruption, arrange for defections of good leaders, demoralize their cadre etc. This is a game BJP is good at but they are underperforming. Like others have commented, JP Nadda is no Amit Shah
7) The ED raids must culminate in arrests and political death. This has not happened. This has been an Achilles heel for the BJP. Open & shut cases like National Herald are still ongoing, 2G scammers are roaming free etc. The enemy is allowed to regroup, re-arm & re-loot (like in Karnataka & Telangana)
8 ) Hindutva message, when hammered by Modi at the last minute, does drive home the point. This has to be done all through their term and not just an election gimmick. Once again, BJP is cynical & impotent at this. The average Hindu on social media blocks & tackles for them. Ram Janmabhoomi in 2024 is a welcome development
9) Freebies win elections in India. Ironically, the more prosperous we get, the more people in the lower rungs feel entitled to freebies. Human greed is insatiable. Ironically women voters, who are Modi's biggest vote-bank, are the ones who vote most for these freebies in state after state. BJP learnt its lessons from Karnataka and course corrected by Laldi Behen/Beti schemes in MP, Chattisgarh. Modi has doubled down with his Modi ka Guarantee slogan. This is a good development. In 2024, this will get even more strident. Congress, with little hope of winning, will poison the waters with even Rs 10000 Universal Basic Income promise! BJP has to effectively counter that without bankrupting ourselves. Avoid the winner's curse

[williams]

Congress is not the only problem we have in India. We have a left-leaning judiciary and a corrupt, overworked law enforcement setup and civil bureaucracy. That kind of setup can only do so much to Congi corruption cases. There is also a day-to-day living population that requires freebies. BJP cannot rely on cultural and nationalistic moral ascendency alone. There is also a significant gap in governance performance between the central Modi government and BJP led state governments. Karnataka would not have gone to Congis if the local BJP govt performed better. We need people like Yogi and Hemath who have achieved excellent governance at the state level. There is also a trend where the state leaders are being pulled to the central government. These are known problems that can be fixed, but it will take some time. As the economy increases and people get uplifted, the hope is that the unwanted elements will be drained.

williams ji,


It is not a coincidence that the words "socialist" and "secular" were rammed into the constitution by the BIF funded commies, and the pillar became poisonous when the collegium was seditiously introduced and enforced by the self invented poppycock theory of " basic structure of the constitution"

nepal was thrown to the conversion wolfpacks under eerily similar circumstances and the same or similar words were also forcibly introduced into their constitution, not to forget the murder of the king and the royal family paved the way for a commie coup. These conversion wolfpacks were largely neutered in India by the FCRA and now the BIF, with their panicked padre and mullah led missionary mafia are now seriously into the regime change agenda

the parliament made the constitution and the parliament can amend it as they will, if the need arises because the constitution has already been amended over a hundred times so far, as indeed, it was meant to be.

It is in the intended nature of a document that is living, responsive, dynamic and relevant to the changing circumstances, and so requirement of amendments and the concept of change is in built into the body and spirit of the constitution, thus rendering "basic structure" fallacies and other subterfuges of clever legal inventions of convenience notwithstanding

the BJP is waking up to the fact that some of their south MLAs (especially the rapacious imports from other parties) may not be as willing to forgo the tangible returns from the "loaves and fishes" of office as the north based MLAs seemingly are, and besides the BJP party discipline and adherence to the official party line, is far higher in the north than in the south......

Karnataka would not have gone to Congis if the local BJP govt performed better.

they should, as much as possible, stop inducting political mercenaries and piratical raiders from other parties and reward them with high office, overlooking their own hardworking local cadres who would have legitimate aspirations of organic growth

yeddy is an ideologically strong mass leader, but politically naïve, and easily swayed by virulently competing local religious matt heads with their own political agendas that are solely tied to local dominance and entirely divorced from state and national narratives which goes against the very grain of the politics of the BJP.

These short sighted matt heads have played directly into the hands of the padre-mullah mafia, powered by huge BIF conversion funds

These matt heads wanted to send out a strong message to the powers that be in dilli, and hence the needless debacle. If the caste census report comes out, as it will under siddhu, these matt heads, both lingayats and vokkaligas, will have their goose cooked and their alleged political sway and power will be eclipsed by other communities much stronger than them numerically.

this was a hornet's nest that was stirred needlessly and the repercussions will be telling on both these communities

These communities are now in a state of panic and are making all out efforts to stop the public release of the caste "census" report done earlier in KAR by the congis. DKS is the most vocal of the bigwigs publicly against the release of the report and siddhu is hell bent on releasing it because he hopes to benefit and be anointed as the undisputed leader of the lower caste + abrahamic combo

On other fronts, we already had a disastrous rockstar in the RBI, and now another has raised his head in a pillar and one strongly suspects the BIF support in both cases....

In earlier times, both these entities kept well clear of the media, as they should, but now they seem to actively seek out the limelight on a daily basis, especially on prime time teevee

The Indian electorate has so far been able to recognise the vital importance of keeping Modi powerful at the centre, hence the differential choice of voting pattern for the state and central elections....

The three state election victories of the Modi machine has left the goras gobsmacked, there has been no violence or even disturbances of any kind which further adds to the stamp of political authority of Modi's unparalleled hold over the narrative and his enduring charisma among the masses

All we can do now is to wait and watch, and hope for the best.

And wait for Modi to do what he does best, offer once again his trusted, tried, tested, and very successful Modi model that is truly delivery based and demonstrably impartial and secular, and capable of performing electoral magic, and use that to decimate the opposition in 2024.

For the very first time in Indian history, an Indian general election could literally have global implications that could send cold shivers down many a gora spine...

It could also severely blunt the march of the global left.....

The blinken team in the state dept is filled with nuts who openly parade the commie agenda and viewpoint, and they are the ones who are hell bent on pushing the pannun agenda and the associated venomous narratives blaming India with the ultimate purpose of discrediting the Modi govt before the 2024 elections.

turdeau is a commie, a trait that he inherited from the pater

People don't seem to understand or appreciate that India's geopolitical stance, both in the ukr and hamas fiascos, are primarily against the narrative of the global left and their rabid supporters, and that has caused the lefties and their pals a great amount of takleef.

These are among the smartest geopolitical moves made by the Modi govt

BJP has picked young people to be CM of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan. This augurs well for the future of BJP. CM Balaknath Yogi of Rajasthan is 39 years old, CM Mohan Yadav of Madhya Pradesh is 58 yrs and CM Vishnu Deo Sai of Chhattisgarh is 59 yrs. Hope these young people usher in a period of terrific growth for their states.

Mohan Yadav has degrees: BSc, LLB, M.A., MBA, PhD! Politician, Businessman, Advocate all rolled into one.
