Lot of theories and conclusions came out of this Indian election results but the unfortunate bottom line is we are not ready to be a great nation who vote for real Indianness. It was a real oppurtunity lost for us to be assertive and show what Indianness is.
Two main points to be considered are:
1) Indians becoming partially seft-suffiecent, totally passive.
-Around 40s majority of Indians are involved in nation building exersice.That spirt started to decrease gradually and reached its nadir in 2009.
This 2009 election result is a victory of passive mind-set of Indians. The mandate is clear indication of pure lethargic mentality of the Indians. Indians want every thing. We want development, become super power etc without any change. Every one know Congress under Manmohan is doing nothing. But still they don’t want new dynamic govt. They don't want someone challenging them to do some thing good.
-This vote is like a opinion of a a lazy employee working in a maintenance project under a lazy project manager for a long time. Suddenly a new boss came and started improving process and performance ask emplyees to embrace new technology to make the project efficient then how do the employee feel. He will feel the old Project Manager is better. Same thing happened here.Chal raha hai..chal ne do attitude is what we see clearly.
-People are ok for any Govt that keeps them in their existing gutter. Better continue with what they are used to rather than change and get more issues,even if the change offers them good governance.
-This quasi-state of Indian progress is giving our people a sense of comfort which they donnot want to lose. Let terrorists come and attack us, let Politicians do nothing, let hell be there why bother when u r getting what you want to survive.
2) Indian Media playing great role in demonizing BJP.
-There is one party who have clear agenda and have clear vision to stir the country towards irrevocable development, but people are scared of that party. Media role in building this 'scare' have to be carefully scrutinized.
-Some voters got into the trap of the Media and got scared of BJP.
-It is pathetic to see Indian Middle class did not see the problems to a Hindu, getting side-lined by, not by a Meritous person but by a person who just happens to be a Minority person.
-People did not get it right (some reasons are because of our media)
When BJP said No appeasement - People are made to think it is anti-Muslim.
When BJP said No Terrorism - People are made to think as more communal riots.
When BJP said Nationalism - People are made to think they are saying 'ONLY HINDU'.
Never in History was a major Political party’s benign message was soo distorted and shown in a completely negative way. We have to appreciate media for the role they played in these elections.
-Now Hindus is lonely in India.If he want to raise a voice as a Hindu no one will support him. No sympathy for a person who recognize himself as Hindu. People have to get shelter with some caste or some sect based community but not under our great religion Hinduism. It it a illusion that the majority are Hindus.Organizations like VHP and other Hindu organizations shd rethink their strategy when fighting with these 'pseudo secular' forces. They might lose sympatizers even in people like me if they cannot make a image makeover and show Hindusism as most progressive and dynamic (which it is....more on that in later )
-In a way this election results are good because time have come to raise Hindu voices up, non-political way. Now the forces who speak for majority are underdogs. Indians like underdogs.
-Media have effectively made Indians ashamed of their own Hindu background. Now the rampage of conversion, Muslim appeasement politics will continue for long time to come.
-This victory is a license to convert for 5 more years with disdain. We can do nothing but be a silent spectator.
-All these forces who made this possible have to be defeated. No matter how tough it is , no matter how underdogs we feel in this majority country we have to fight or else...the time will come when Hindus are no longer a majority in India.
