It's something I have always thought & voiced. That the job & mission of a political party is to increase its appeal by expanding the vote base available.
If you are a party of the "rich", you increase your appeal by adding numbers to the "rich" list.....or by appealing to those who want to better their lot....
If you are a party of the poor,..............

Dissent is still alive in India, ThankGOD. Rahul Gandhi.
" .....On the flipside, some political observers, who did not wish to be named, felt that Rahul again displayed his immaturity by choosing the wrong audience to ask the wrong questions.
The suggestion was that the Clean India and Make in India campaigns - and by extension their biggest mascot Prime Minister Narendra Modi - enjoy popularity and acceptance among "urban youths" and Rahul should have assessed his target audience better.
But a counter-argument by some Congress leaders was that the frank opinion of the students itself made it clear that it was not a "hired" or "fixed" audience but an independent group of students with whom Rahul was willing to engage on their own terms.
Rahul did face some uncomfortable questions in a session that followed his opening remarks. Some students later said that most of the nine questions were submitted in advance, suggesting Rahul had time to prepare the answers.
...........Two final-year students later told The Telegraph that some of them where trying to say "Swachh Bharat is not working in Karnataka", a Congress-ruled state.
" He gave rubbish replies to question submitted in advance
...... height of incompetence.

Does BJP has any idea on how to deal with this intolerance propaganda?
I mean shooting their mouth ,like a lot of leaders and Sadhus and Sadhvis do, is a very bad tactics. I advocate a tactics in which award returnees and people peddling intolerance narrative are hit on their stomach.Open ED cases ,and if possible criminal cases, against all theses Khans. And against so called "intellectuals", the best policy would be to deny them patronage. Sack (or don't select them) for cushy "cultural" appointments. Don't buy their books for government libraries,and get their books removed from list of recommended reading in university. None of the supposed "intellectual" could sell his book in open market, and depend on government subscription and recommendations for livelihood.
There is a very famous saying in our area: "Upar wale ki lathi me awaaz nahi hoti". I say, rather than bashing them or asking them to leave for Pakistan, drive these cünts into penury; though for someone like Aamir who is pretty rich, different tactics would be needed.He should be requested to move out of country, like he wants to, and his religion should be highlighted in conjugation with his "intolerance" remarks.

This Govt. is the stupidest one I have seen in my life. Honestly, there does not seem to be any hope. It truly does not deserve to stay in power. For being stupid.

No Intolerance, There's Room for Dissent and Fake Dissent: Arun Jaitley
All India | Edited by Anindita Sanyal | Updated: November 26, 2015 09:25 IST
India, Arun Jaitley said, is the "most liberal democracy in the world".
New Delhi: India's tolerance can be gauged by the fact that not only there is space for dissent but also fake dissent, Union finance minister Arun Jaitley told NDTV today.
The minister's remark came as the debate on intolerance started raging again following the comments of actor Aamir Khan. Mr Jaitley refused to speak on what he called "individual comments".
But he said, "India's liberal tradition is evidence to the fact that we not only have space for dissent but also great space for fake dissent... Are we in a position to take action against those who have voiced manufactured dissent?"
In a democracy there will be people who do not maintain the best standards of public discourse. They can be advised to desist, the minister said.
"If someone associated with my party does it -- at the level of PM and the party president and I have asked them to quieten down. Similarly, those who have a differing view should do the same," he added.
India, the minister said, is the "most liberal democracy in the world" - the exception being during the Emergency. Drawing a comparison between the verbal attacks made in France and Germany in the aftermath of the terror strikes in Paris, he said the situation here is much better.
The comments of Aamir Khan has caused a huge controversy, with a section of his fans and colleagues hitting out at the actor.
The government, too, had reacted sharply, with Union minister Venkaiah Naidu saying, "Some people are misleading and some people are misled. Who comes in which category, I do not want to say."
Incidents like attacks on rationalists, a mob killing over beef-eating rumours and controversial statements by central ministers have been held up by opposition parties and a section of civil society as examples of intolerance under the current regime.
In protest, a number of authors and artistes have returned their awards, which too, has been criticised.

This is the same old "secularism" debate repackaged as "intolerance" . This too will run its course.
Best way is to deal with this is the way "secularism" was dealt with.
...... if you know what I mean.
