The problem within the BJP was sensed a while back, with the mild stench resulting out of internal friction between the top leaders. But the recent development is a proof to the worsening situation. A few weeks back Nitin Gadkari, the party president had released a statement saying his party will run for the 2014 elections, not by putting a face to the party but by presenting the entire party as a collective unit. This statement was contradicted by another senior leader Arun Jaitley. Yesterday he made claims that the party will run for the elections with a decisive face. He also made it clear though, that the decision will come in time and there is no need for them to be considering this right now.
The BJP has been facing a certain internal crisis ever since the old generation combo of people like Vajpayee and Advani stopped working. To make matters worse the second generation of the party is not able to come up with a decisive strategy for the future. The entire situation has been brought to light in the most confused manner, out of L.K. Advani’s announcement, where he mentioned taking a Rath Yatra around the country to fight corruption.
Not only is Advani’s move a copy of the last successful movement within the country, but it also is being called a final attempt at securing backing for the 2014 PM office. These allegations could be ignored, had they come flying from unknown corners, but the matter is getting its share of attention because such statements are coming from within the BJP party. Overall, the BJP seems to be unorganized and unplanned at the moment. We can only hope that they are able to do the job of a prominent and righteous opposition that they have often claimed to be.
This point of time BJP is looking the most confused and unbalance opposition party of all time. Every BJP govern state head want to be a Prime Minister whether it is Modi or Nitish.
