Correct. Truly, UK was the biggest surprise. Getting the majority, but a sizable majority too. I did not expect the latter, and was hoping for the former.Baikul wrote:Manipur?

The M + Y is very prevalent and the reason for SP seat rise. One has to thankful for the BJP grassroot workers for striving to bring voters to the booth. The voting % is the only way to beat it, else the dominant caste + M consolidation votes is the winner in any "boring" Indian elections. The charisma of Modi brings the josh and energy. BJP development, vikaas means nothing if one doesn't even come out to vote on election day.KL Dubey wrote: The M+Y combination has been an abject failure. Only implementation of Modi's "Sabka-X" approach has worked, with Hindutva actually becoming a part of that (e.g. Kashi corridor, hindu tourism circuit, etc). Very clever.
On to the remaining elections of 2022....HP and GJ. It will be interesting to see how much inroads AAP can make in grabbing the INC vote share. I do agree with the likes of Salim Yadav on this...for the next few years it will strengthen the BJP by splitting votes. I believe Modi has already flagged off the GJ campaign work yesterday.

M is the fastest growing demographics in UP (and India). They openly buy property in UK and will be unbeatable in a few decades.

The pattern can always changes in Indian politics so innovation is the key. Don't analyze and do same mistake, as Congress of getting stuck with past.KL Dubey wrote:

M+Y used to work earlier because there was no consolidating factor for "non M+Y" votes. For a brief while, Advani's Hindutva push in 1990s brought consolidation, but it was not sustainable beyond 1998, and especially not in UP (due to the calculations of Mulayam et al).
Things are changing a lot. M+Y combination did not work in 2014, 2017, 2019, and neither in 2022. Consolidation on the basis of vikas (+ hindutva) is the reason. Modi and Yogi's charisma is built up because of their sustained work and clarity of purpose over decades, and not the other way round.
Yeah, it is obvious that if the BJP stops doing good work, M+Y can creep back. Nothing is permanent unless you sustain it. Even though the UP karyakartas this time are considered to have done a below-par job in several of the phases, people came out to vote without being reminded.
It will either a SIKH or a Muslim. Keeping 2024 in mind.

SaPa's 45+ seat gain over last year has been through total consolidation of votes by muslims, yadavs and some misguided <25 yr old youths. INC's rout in the state shows that SaPa gained at INC's cost while BJP may have gained at BSP's cost. To break the M vote bank you ideally need parties like AIMIM to win a seat or two to show they are in serious contention.
In other news, former Khangress lackey and now full time twitter "intellect" Sanjay Jha is taking open shots at pappu maharaj. He wants Sachin Pilot to take the helm of the party.
very critical to address this ...9. The reverses and scares that the BJP is facing in urban Uttar Pradesh seems to suggest that middle-class urban voter has her share of complaints with the BJP. While the state administration covered all bases in protecting the most vulnerable sections of the population from the Covid-19 pandemic and its aftermath, there is a possibility that the urban middle-class felt neglected in comparison.

Same audience targeted by Foreign social media companies -- foreign govts. will use social media to target indian kids, and if there is no local counter-narrative and SM gets a free run, there will be no good coming out of that situation. It is likely that Older Indians do not seek out new avenues of "information" actively from SM and other new avenues, as curiosity is higher for most people when younger.vijayk: Engage younger kids with some interesting topics such as Mars exploration, Hydrogen or electric car transition ... make it look cool ... make it look high goal

First takeaways from trends. The first is, AAP has risen as the “change” party of India. It is a fundamental new shift in national politics. Watch for their vote share in Gujarat later this year. A new planet has risen.

what makes you think that the BJP cow needs to be saved by any section of the population
It's doing great on its own
In a interview with a news channel sometime in 2016, Modi said it doesn't matter if the party wins or loses but the biggest change BJP has ushered into Indian politics post 2014 is that development is at the center of all political debates and narratives, he was absolutely spot on.Cyrano wrote:Is this a turning point in India's elections where development and good governance are valued above religion, caste and goonda power politics?

1a. India is beyond advanced now as a cashless society! From street vendors to shops in the mall, everyone, everywhere is using Google Pay (or something similar).
A sugarcane juice vendor on the Dandi beach gave me a look when the QR code scan failed as I didn't have it set up!

1b. Friends I grew up with rarely carry Rs. 200 with them on a daily basis. This is beyond a cultural shift. A few years ago this would have been impossible to imagine.
Just the sheer scale of digital payment literacy that has happened in India is beyond anywhere in West!
Saying that and staying steadfast on it are proofs of tremendous conviction and dedication!Ambar wrote:In a interview with a news channel sometime in 2016, Modi said it doesn't matter if the party wins or loses but the biggest change BJP has ushered into Indian politics post 2014 is that development is at the center of all political debates and narratives, he was absolutely spot on.Cyrano wrote:Is this a turning point in India's elections where development and good governance are valued above religion, caste and goonda power politics?
