Ballot ka Saudagar

No matter what happens the commies and the dynasty would prefer to call Moditva the "Maut ka Saudagar" and would like all of us to believe that Moditva triumphed yet again because of the communal polarization. But Modi and his five and a half crore gujaratis have proved that real development and the creation of a cult status will mean that BJP has a "West Bengal" of its own now. 11 years and now definitely going to be 16 is no mean achievement. A miles above that of what the commies have done in WB. In WB they have the hard core base and the kind of cadre that just will not slip away. This is something unique to West Bengal and not seen anywhere elese. You put any tom, dick or Budhdha on a commie ticket and he will win in WB. But thats not the case in Gujarat. Its sheer hard-work and its just the one man thats made it possible.
Moditva has defied all odds, all opposition, all exit polls to emerge the tallest man in the BJP. For those who believe Modi will be a problem to Mr Advani. They are mistaken. He will compliment Mr Advani. He will bring back the hardline BJP. He will bring back the BJP that will now shed the mask called Mr VAjpayee.
From the begining Mr Modi faced stiff oposition from everywhere. He was the Media's favourite punching bag. The pounced on him at any given opportunity. Then there was the Rahul Gandhi Road show. I thought circus had road shows. Then came Madams "Maut ka saudagar". Well you cant blame her for that. You give her the recipie for Butter chicken masala by mistake and she will read that out at the election rally. So then there was criticism from within the BJP led by Keshubhai. And the central leadership knew more. They knew, if there was one man that could win Gujarat for them, it was Mr Modi. And true, without him the BJP would have been battered. Even the Sangh Parivar was not whole-heartedly behind him. But then Modi with his amazing cult image has romped home. And just like someone at the BJP office in Ahmedabad said "Gujarat is India". Modi will be a huge figure in Indian politics. What ever the leadership thinks, Mr Modi definitely has a demigod status with the BJP workers and their new religion is called MODITVA.
