The season to walk straight is up now and walking zig-zag has come. Every political party and many politicians have abandoned the straight path as it does not suit them in the changing scenario. Whether there is Modi wave or not,can be contested by various political parties and loudly they deny this wave but they whisper at least that Modi has an edge all over, North to South and East to West. There are voters who openly favour in many states but still there are states where voters cling to regional parties and those regional parties are weighing their pros and cons to allien with NDA as their expectation too is in favour of Modi.
Take the case of Bihar where LJP of Ram Vilash Paswan was in cold after drew a flak in the last election, in be-wilderness he saw light at the end of tunnel and decided to cast off his animosity towards Modi on which plank he resigned from NDA and joined the bandwagon of Secularists. But ultimately, he realized that he has future only with Modi and took a U turn and joined Modi bandwagon. Udit Raj was also in be-wilderness but he also joined BJP to make a strong impact on dalit votes. In Maharastra, RIP joined the NDA combination. Even Raj Thakre could see the impact of Modi on voters and entered into an unwritten agreement with BJP infuriating Shiv Sena who are at the verge of breaking oldest alliance wirh NDA.
Some staunch opponents of BJP-RSS are also visualizing the down fall of their parties and are trying to alien with BJP. Jagdambika Pal, a one day CM of UP and a hardcore Congressman ran away from Congress and is tempted to join BJP. Even Kalyan Singh resigned from Parliament and joined BJP. Ram Kripal Yadav, a fellow party-man of Lalu Yadav having been denied ticket from his old constituency Patliputra is going to join BJP. He had the option to go with JDU of Nitish Kumar but he could sense better future with BJP seeing the wind. In Bihar, 57% people feel that Narendra Modi is better Prime-ministerial candidate. In Madhya Pradesh, Bhagirat Singh was given a ticket by Congress a day earlier but he rejected the Congress nomination and joined BJP.
Most surprising is South. Ms. J. Jayalalitha had an alliance with Left and she declared Prime Ministerial aspiration but on seat adjustment rejected Left and could align with Modi,may be post poll. Ms Purandeshwari, a minister in UPA 2 resigned from Congress to join BJP. In Seemandhra, it is reported that TDP is likely to align with BJP. Even in Telangana where Congress expected that Candrashekar Rao’s TSR would merge with Congress but he has rejected merger with Congress and favouring BJP to align. Surprisingly,Owaisi’s MIM has already sealed alliance with TRS. Does it mean MIM will align with BJP? Last night Arnab Goswami on TIMESNOW categorically asked Owaisi which was denied by Owaisi. But I shall not be taken back by surprise if there is BJO-TRS-MIM alliance takes place in Telangana because it is season for walking zig-zag. In politics ,everything is possible and if it is not then it is not politics.If one wants to walk straight,politics is not meant for him.
Walking zig zag is the art in politics.

अच्छा निरीक्षण है.. अभी और लोग आयेंगे. बहुतों को सत्ता के निरंतर करीब रहने कि अनिवार्यता है ,वे उसके बगैर अपनी सात बचा नही पाते.सवाल यह है के भाजपा को सोचना चाहिए किसे अपनाये .. वरना हम लोग केवल साधन सूचिता कि बाते करते रहेंगे और जब तक आँख खुले फिर एक बार खुदको लूटा हुआ पाये.हालाकि मोदिजी से बहुत उम्मीदें है पर हमारी राजनीति सत्ता मिलने पर अलग रही है और वहा तक पहुचने के लिए अलग रही है…
None of the politicos care…..Vote Bank Politics……Petty Politics……
Absolutely right.Political path is always zig zag.
Times we live in speak of age of turncoats,hypocrites and make believe alliances. The age of delusions. In God,we trust. Jai hind!
Is there any way out?Since I am completely frustrated by the corrupt UPA,so are others,otherwise this nonsense can not be tolerated.
