BJP for Healthy Governance

In India, there are so many parties with so many ideologies. But as responsible voters we must be aware of the consequences if we vote for the anti-democratic parties like Congress and DMK. For the last 5 years, the people of Tamilnadu have been going through innumerable afflictions like price hike of essential commodities, power-cut, indirect hike in bus fare, hooliganism, robbery, arson and looting and so an.

The Chief Minister is a good orator but he is not concerned about the woes of a common man. All he thinks is how to gain political influence by speaking in support of minorities and criticizing the Hindus and their traditions. Right from the beginning of his political career, he has been carrying out such malicious ways to establish him in the politics. The DMK is one of the allies in UPA ruling Government in Center. There is not much difference between these two parties as their aim is to stay in power and bring their heirs in to politics. So there is only one option that we have is to vote for BJP candidates whenever the elections for state or center is held.

Now read the below article what we should do to oust these parties from power. This article I have copies and posted here from the source: http://india.targetgenx.com/2009/08/26/a-strong-bhartiya-janta-party-is-required-for-healthy-democracy/ - thanks to the author.

BJP is needed for the smooth functioning of our democracy. As Tarun Vijay said, “Suppose if there was no Jan Sangh or the BJP, there would have been no Kashmir movement, no demands to scrap two flags and two constitutional provisions for an Indian state and abolishing two Constitutional heads system for it. Who would have taken up the cause of an invincible Indian security and carried out the Pokaran II nuclear tests while preparing for Pokaran III?”

In a nation where most of the political parties are known by the names of their dynasties turning the political process into a kind of family fiefdom, the existence of a party that still runs on democratic norms and represents a completely different ethos, must be valued. That is the Bharatiya Janata Party. It is useless to indulge in the contemporary dichotomies and scuffles that mar its current framework.

It is important that the party conveys its ideology and packages itself in a way that can impress 21st century India. The party needs to take some tough decisions and devote time in getting a makeover. There is no shame if it represents itself as the party catering to Hindu interests as long as it does not becomes communal.

BJP needs to remember the words and vision of its founder, Deen Dayal Upadhyay and Shyama Prasad Mukherjee. At the first all India session of the Bharatiya Jan Sangh, its founder president Dr Shyama Prasad Mookerjee had said, “We must be able to carry all sections of the people with us by creating in their minds a healthy and progressive attitude of co-operation based on true equality of opportunity and mutual tolerance and understanding. Our party’s door remains open to all who believe in our program and ideologies irrespective of considerations of caste and religion. ”

Without mincing any words he declared, “Our party though, ever prepared to extend its hand of equality to all citizens, does not feel ashamed to urge for the consolidation of Hindu society. We are not so mean as to forget that in this gigantic process our country came into contact and conflict with many foreign races and ideologies and our great ancestors had the courage to fashion and refashion the country’s structure in accordance with new ideas and with the changed conditions of our society. If India’s freedom is to be purposeful, a correct appreciation of the fundamental features of Indian culture – the discovery of that unity in diversity, which is the keynote of her civilization — is highly essential.”

BJP is party of nationalists and it needs to remain one. However, it has to re-brand itself and become the savior of the middle class which it once represented. It is equally important to refrain from any sort of communalism. It is a national alternative to the Congress, more so after this election which has pushed regional parties and their identity politics to the margins. There are, after all, no full stops in politics.

Jai Hind...!!!
