The Sudden Resignation of LK Advani from all the Important posts from BJP central Working committee and subsequent withdrawal has thrown BJP in to quandary. Narendra Modies elevation as head of publicity in BJP Working committee let the Worms out of can. Underestimating Advani factor in the over-all strategy of fighting forthcoming Lokasabha election will be suicidal for BJP as Coalition partners like Nithish Kumar of JDU walked out of NDA.
The hasty decision of projecting Modi as a Primeministerial candidate without going deep in to the Pros and Cons of its over all effect on Indian Polity is a strategic failure of BJP Think Tank. They should have kept Advani in high stature and at the same time projected Modi step by step, so that coaliation partners should not have sensed the grand strategy of BJP until the eve of the forthcoming Loksabha elections.NDA partners might have reconciled the necessity of Modi for the success in election as their Moscot and eventually Modi would have been accepted as unquestionable leader of BJP as well as coalition Partners. As a trade off, BJP should have offered Advani the post of the Indian President keeping in mind age and stature of grand old man.
Sensing vertical split in dicision making body of BJP, The collation partners of NDA will exert maximum pressure on BJP in seat sharing and other policy matters to undermine Modis authority. It is no secret by now that NDA totally averse to Modi brand of politics. Congress party is waiting for this opportunity for long time and formation of third front will upset the equation of winning chances of BJP in the next general election. The split in top leadership of BJP as Advani group and Modi group will aggravate the capacity of policy making within BJP which will indirectly help Congress and Third Front. BJP provided NDA a ‘stick to beat with’ and there are real possibilities of regional parties aligning together on Socialistic platform to defeat BJP as well Congress and the process has already begun. It is an indication of uncertainty looming large on Indian Political horizon. The emergence of third front will create a situation of Hung Parliament, Unholy alliances and Horse trading which ultimately weaken Indian Democrecy.
