Karnataka chose compassion and genuine connection over megalomania Tushar Gandhi May 16, 2023 https://www.allindiansmatter.in/karnataka-chose-compassion-and-genuine-connection-over-megalomania/
Modi, from his days as chief minister of Gujarat, has displayed a very prominent ego. After he became prime minister, his ego became even more overbearing. Now, in his second term, it has turned into megalomania. He does not bother to hide it. His second term can be described as a “ME AND ONLY I” era.
Look at his hurried inaugurations of half-complete projects, flagging off even local trains and turning them into “I! I! Only I!” events. The only thing he hasn’t inaugurated so far is a public latrine and that may happen soon.
His choreographed roadshows feature only him.

“Jagar Maharashtracha” will appeal to people to vote against the BJP on the lines of “Eddelu Karnataka”.
In an exclusive interview, the highly regarded political commentator and the best known historian of modern India, Ramachandra Guha, both analyses and gives his personal response to the Karnataka election results. What does it tell us about the strengths and weaknesses of the Congress and BJP? What does it suggest about the 2024 national elections? How does it reflect on Narendra Modi and Rahul Gandhi? What does it reveal about the mood of Karnataka? And does it offer insights into the mood of the country?

The electorate of Karnataka has decisively voted against two fundamental issues in the assembly elections of May 2023: unbridled mega-corruption of the BJP government and its politics of hate in the name of Hindutva. https://thewire.in/politics/a-vote-against-40-commission-double-engine-sarkar-and-the-politics-of-hindutva

Indian Electoral Politics: Shifting Sands
Seven decades down the line the electoral scene has changed for the worse and is currently dominated by emotive issues. The foundation of derailing the ‘this worldly’ issues was the Ram Temple movement. This movement became stronger after the implementation of Mandal Commission report. Since then the domination of emotive, identity issues is on the rise. This is reflected by the fact that in 2019, no party dared to utter the word secularism, as claimed by the winner of 2019 elections, Mr. Narendra Modi himself. He presented it as a trophy for the efforts of RSS-BJP’s political success.

It is in this track that any issue can be given a religious turn as we witnessed its peak in the coining of phrase ‘Corona Jihad’. This showed how electoral politics can be reduced merely to game of identity issues. BJP has mastered this art over a period of last few decades. The media, which is prostrating to BJP ideology, is putting its best efforts to magnify the doings of communal stream.
Not to be left behind, Arvind Kejrival is trying to compete which these divisive efforts revolving around identity issues, in his own unique smart ways. The AAP, which in a way, is an alternate model of communal politics; is playing its Hindutva/communal card with shrewdness. Kajriwal party is also an example of blind subservience to the dictator by the other leaders of that party. As Kejriwal demanded this; all his cronies, stated saying the same. The peak of this was Atishi Marlena, who stated that this demand of Laxmi-Ganesh is not merely Kejriwal demand, it is the aspiration of 130 crore Indians! Most of the dictatorial tendencies believe they are speaking for the whole country. This is a duplicate of what Narendra Modi, when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat, used to say that he is talking on behalf of Five Crore Gujratis. India needs a party which can accommodate all sections of society with equality and dignity, apart from welfare; it also promotes employment and proactively deals with marginalized sections of society. We need a party where religion is not mixed with politics. For many, AAP began with a big promise for a better politics, but its reality is there for all to see with its trajectory leading to demanding Laxmi and Ganesh on currency notes and dumping of Jan Lokpal in the dustbin of Hisotry!
