The reason AAP wasn't able to get majority was it failed to convince Muslims it was a b team of bjp despite doing several minority appeasement stunts

Just think why people like you or I may have voted for them...wasn't it that they were promising to bring in a government style not offered by any political alternative that you or i know??

What difference would there be when they also form a post poll alliance with parties against whom them campaigned so hard?? They have won 28 seats for god sake and their elected representatives can do lot of work and prove their mettle, no??...In fact IMHO it is good if they sit in opposition...this will give them much needed experience as well!!

I think the biggest victory of AAP is

- Political parties now very well know that middle class is going to come out and vote.
- People are going to vote on issues of development, corruption and price rise... No longer people are going to be fooled by last minute well-fare programs or can be divided by religion/caste etc.
- AAP party has cut ice with so called lower class as well. This in my eyes is the biggest slap on both BJP and Congress. I hope they have learned a good lesson out of this.

Valid points, But AAP won in Delhi because of literacy rate and graduates who voted for them, if they want their ideology to survive and also want to to spread to other regions of India, they have to rule and make an example/statement. Ideology with out strength and power will not survive for long.

The fact that they have cut across middle class as well as lower class gives a different inclination. Anyhow as of now doesn't look like AAP is going to sit anywhere..so let's wait as to what Delhi is upto!!

BJP has decided to Rewrite its Target Beyond 272 which was earlier set by the Party... Going for a aggressive Door to Door campaigning in 11 states ... And attacking UPA in all fronts...

The Bharatiya Janata Party has sharpened its final countdown to the general elections of next year. Party CEO and president - Narendra Modi and Rajnath Singh - have revised the target upward to beyond the magic figure of 272, deciding to focus on 11 states in the north and central zone of the country so as to form the next government.

In the four states where results were declared on Sunday, the BJP got 408 of the 590 seats. The party leadership now wants to ride carry this momentum forward into the general elections.

"Our aim is to first cross the 272 mark and hold public rallies to take across the voters our message for good governance, anticorruption agenda and enrolling new voters," party president Rajnath Singh told Mail Today.

It is learnt that the party's prime ministerial candidate and poster boy Narendra Modi now wants the BJP to not only target the nearly 72 parliamentary seats in these four states, but extend the momentum over the nation's entire northern and central zones.

Rajnath Singh and Narendra Modi

Top party sources confirmed the 11 states where BJP will be entering in an aggressive poll mode beginning early January next year are Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab, Himachal, Gujarat and Maharashtra. These 11 states together have 293 LS seats, and the BJP hopes that the pace picked up in the Assembly polls will get it very close to the half-way mark of 272 in Parliament.

Leading from the front is Modi himself, who has set a virtual "mission impossible" for himself - to sweep Gujarat and get 26 out of 26 LS seats for BJP, confirmed a top party insider to Mail Today on Wednesday. In a similar vein, the Madhya Pradesh Assembly results have encouraged the state party leadership to fix a similar target - 29 out 29 - there as well. BJP general secretary Ananth Kumar sees the momentum in BJP as similar to the wave of the 1977 elections. "A north India poll phenomenon is ready to strike in the Lok Sabha polls next year where we are aiming to repeat what we did then, that is make the Congress under Indira Gandhi sweat in the Hindi heartland of north and central India," he told Mail Today. "If the latest Assembly results are any indicator, then we are going all out in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh and the entire northern region up to Jammu," Kumar said. The party top brass has decided to go full swing with its three-fold strategy, hints party chief Rajnath Singh.

In 1977, Morarji Desai emerged as the first non-Congress PM at the helm of a Janata Party administration.

The party is aiming high in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, particularly in the former where Rajnath's own leadership is facing the test to get the state back in the BJP's kitty. "We are aiming to score over 50 per cent in UP and Bihar, which makes at least 60-70 seats out of 120," said Kumar. Top party sources said Modi and Singh have already made Bihar a priority, specially after the split with Nitish Kumar. In Maharashtra, the saffron party is ready to have a soft alliance with either the Raj Thackeray-led MNS or Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena. "We can then sweep Maharashtra and with SAD in Punjab, we will try to make the most in northern areas," Kumar added.

Party sources also added that the leadership is not leaving out the North-East, especially Assam and Arunachal, in its new poll agenda of a "Strong BJP and Extended NDA" to neutralise the Trinamool Congress effect in Bengal.

Congress and BJP decode '13 impact on 2014

The resurgence of the BJP in Delhi and its sweeping victory in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh have raised an inevitable question - will the 2013 Assembly results have any impact on the 2014 Lok Sabha polls?

Experts say the results point to a strong anti-Congress wave across the nation. A hopeful BJP, riding strong on the so-called Modi wave, has expressed confidence that the party's clear victory in the polls bode well for 2014.

The Indira Gandhi-led Congress government was virtually routed in the 1977 general elections.

"Though our performance in Delhi has been a little off the mark, we have realised that many people in Delhi voted for a new idea. The undercurrent in the state was in favour of the new political party. However, the scenario is different at the national level. A reading of people's moods indicates that they want Narendra Modi as the next PM," said former Delhi mayor Arti Mehra.

The Congress and its supporters, however, are quick to cite past trends to negate any idea of the results affecting the 2014 verdict.

"In 1998, the Congress won in Delhi and Rajasthan but was defeated in the 1999 general elections; similarly, the BJP won in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh in 2003, but was defeated in 2004. This proves that a state election victory may not necessarily translate into a win in the Lok Sabha polls," Congress leader Kiran Walia said. "Besides, six months is long time.

The BJP and AAP's attitude in Delhi is already irresponsible and unethical - neither wants to form a government. There have been minority governments at the Centre, so why do they want to burden Delhi with re-election? Is it because they promised the moon and now realise that they won't be able to deliver?" she added.

One last concerted effort is needed to topple Congress out of power. Its not going to be easy, especially with so many regional players in fray, but its doable.

If and when BJP/NDA comes to power, they need to hold their ground for next couple of terms and keep the Congressi scourge out of power. This can only be done with good governance and a strong economy to match. The real hard work for BJP and its allies will start after the election, and that will be to convince the public to keep voting for them.

Will somebody please tell these Congressis that the real cause of their defeat was the endless corruption scandals and the not the subsidy. Subsidy cap on cooking gas cylinders and the hike in fuel prices was a good move by Chidu. The economy will be hit if they undo this.

Congress is all set to Break up...

1.Half a dozen MPs of Congress from Seema Andhra Pradesh moved a No Confidence Motion against their own party in Lok Sabha. They might either resign or might be suspended anytime now.

2. Mani Shankar Aiyyer, an important Congress leader and former Union Cabinet Minister slammed Manmohan Singh and said he wasn’t half as sure as last time that Congress would win.


Allies are loosing confident...


1. NCP chief Sharad Pawar, said Congress leadership is not decisive.NCP is a key Congress ally.

2. Another key UPA ally said it would reconsider its decision and would most likely go alone in 2014 polls and contest all 14 seats in Jharkhand than a pre poll alliance with Congress.

3. JDU which was Thinking of a alliance with Congress has pulled its hands and doesnt want any ties with Congress.

4. National conference leaders are already rethinking on the alliance.

@Nair saab,you are from which state?

They had to do that. Aim for more than required. At least you can hope that the target can be achieved. BJP must not get complacent due to recent results & needs to start from scratch. Rigorous campaigning is needed to ouster grand old corrupt party from the face of Indian politics.

BJP would get good seats ... But the Problem is with Shiv Sena and MNS... If they both dont come together with BJP congress and NCP would likely get more seats...

Modiji is confused on weather of Dumping Shiv Sena and going with MNS or Going with Shiv sena itself...

Any way he trying his level best to bring Both Thakrey brothers together and making a Alliance with MNS, BJP and SS ...

If all 3 come together then we will sweep election... winning all the seats...
