About "Is BJP leadership heading for a downfall?" topic:

There is no stemming the blood-letting in BJP. The BJP has been facing one crisis after another following the Lok Sabha election debacle.

Starting with Jaswant Singh's episode: book on Mohammad Ali Jinnah, where Jaswant singh was shown the door. Then a former strategist and BJP ideologue Sudheendra Kulkarni announced his decision to quit the party following ideological differences.

And in the lastest blow to BJP, rebellion by leaders like Arun Shourie, Yaswant Singh and Vasundhara Raje have shown that not all is right in the principal Opposition party of India.

With all this backlash within party leaders, do you think BJP leadership is heading for a downfall?

Under this topic, let us discuss where BJP Leadership is heading...

Just like Indira gandhi after her electoral defeat after the EMERGENCY she built the congress party single handedly. Similarly BJP will  weather the crisis.
Himanshu Pathak  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  3 years ago
I guess yes there is too much of internal clashes in the party members, there is huge communication gap that is there among the party leaders, as Arun shourie suggested they should revamp the whole camp there if not it will be soon all over for...

Thanks for the referral Yash. After reading the whole BJP-Jaswant Singh episode, I bought the  book and read it. I was very impressed by Mr.Singh well researched and equally well written book . The book is over 650 pages and it’s a criticism on...

I think BJP are digging graves for themselves in this case, instead of showing maturity in handling the situation they have made it even worse by sacking a senior leader like Jaswant singh who had worked very hard for the party, in any case it...

The BJP’s Premier Debate The main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is getting scorched by the wrong debate at the wrong time: who should be prime minister? Elections in India aren’t due until May 2014. But this hasn’t stopped an unseemly, unacknowledged cold war erupting between two prime ministerial hopefuls: Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and his one-time mentor and eternal prime minister-in-waiting, L.K. Advani. As a result, Modi skipped the first day of the party’s National Executive meeting that began in New Delhi on Friday. The whole debate on who should be premier if the BJP takes power has taken a nasty turn with Gujarat BJP chief Balbir Punj describing Modi as ‘the bes...

Somehow, Rajeev ji, this article of yours escaped my attention. We should all be weary of an extremely dangerous trend that's emerging in witch-hunting of whistle-blowers. Both the National Parties are following this pattern. No single individual...
Suryanarayan Murthy  |  Commented  |  1 year ago
What we need is a strong man like Modiji. No second thought about it. In my opinion, we need not wait till 2014 for elections. They may come sometime in March 2013.

Arunima  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  3 years ago
Absolutely. During the Loksabha Polls, BJP in its campaign tried to portray itself as a party with a difference and Mr. Advani as the "Loh Purush". It claimed that if it was in power then it would have dealt differently with the 26/11 situation....

S. Muralidharan  |  Argues in support of  "Controversy"  |  3 years ago
More than anything, there is an aberration in human perception.  Controversy sans scholarly content would not have stirred sales.  Expulsion of Mr. Jaswant Singh from BJP on account of this book is just a misnomer.  Controvery within the party...

       Zuckerberg Named One of 10 Worst-Dressed Men Hi Friends.... Time magazine coverboy and billionaire Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been named one of the 10 worst-dressed guys of 2010 by Esquire magazine. When Esquire was putting together its “2010 Celebrity Style Hall of Shame” list, it didn’t have to look far in the tech world to find plenty of candidates. Mark was easy prey to Esquire‘s critical eye, given his high profile and simple wardrobe. What’s the matter with the way he dresses, anyway? We don’t mind that casual look, and if a billionaire CEO has a closet full of exactly the same shirt and pants (we’re looking at you, Steve Jobs), who are we to say he can’t wear them? It makes him comfortable, and after all, getting away with wearing a T-shirt to a black-tie event means you’re one powerful dude. All this attention to Mark’s wardrobe made us want to look for visual evidence. So here’s a gallery of the various outfits he’s been spotted wearing. You might be surprised...
