Weedicide spray -The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. Modiocracy may be defined as a supplementary democracy to systematically black mail the principles of a time-tested democratic set – up, as has been enshrined in the Constitution of India. The Modiocracy is a system of slow poisoning of Indian democracy so that it would face natural death and distinct by itself.
Modiocracy in full swing – Axe the Regional Parties
Weedicide spray -The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. The hidden agenda of Bhartiya Janata Party led by Narendra Modi had been to axe the Regional Parties in the country to annex their electorate. J.P. Nadda, President, BJP had openly announced that BJP would cleanse of the country from the menace of the unprecedented sprouting of the Regional Parties.
Nadda said that there would be no regional parties in future. They would be eliminated from the country and the BJP would only be visible.
According to his statement, the regional parties would be detrimental to the development of the Country. They would destroy the sanctity of national party, the Bhartiya Janata Party.
The BJP had been relentlessly working to wreck the Regional Parties. The move to submerge them remains suspended, temporarily, since Narendra Modi craves to utilize them for his proposed third coronation. Let us diagnosis:
Bihar
Janata Dal United
Weedicide spray -The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. The most uncertain and unstable party in Bihar had been Janata Dal United led by Nitish Kumar. He was on the Chief Minister post for more than twenty years without any self-support.
He proved to be the flippest and a turncoat politician that India had ever seen. He aligned with every Party to remain in power. He created the record of having sworn-in nine times as Chief Minister.
The BJP has been the one party which is out to scuttle Nitish Kumar, who believes in nobody. Nitish Kumar falls in the same category of Mayawati, the supremo of Bahujan Samaj Party. It is stated that BJP would show him a permanent exit in Bihar in next Parliamentary elections.
He sided with Narendra Modi on the assurance that the Assembly would be dissolved and elections would be held simultaneously along with Parliamentary elections. It did not happen.
Modi outsmarted Nitish and was forced to go with BJP for the elections. It has been observed that Nitish is not happy at the turn of events and his cadres have started non cooperation with BJP in the Parliamentary elections, the results of which would be disastrous to both of them, in which case Nitish might again turn a flippant
Rastriya Janata Dal
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. Juxtaposed to the ideology of Nitish Kumar had been the Rastriya Janata Dal of Lalu Prasad Yadav, a seasoned politician of Bihar. The party has been an eye sore of Bhartiya Janata Party since the time it had thwarted Rath Yatra of Lal Kishan Advani by his arrest.
It had also defied Congress Party. It ruled Bihar on his own several times, unlike Nitish Kumar. It faced the ire of investigating agencies by Congress as well as BJP.
The BJP put Lal Prasad Yadav in jail on various charges. His entire family has been on the radar of the agencies. His son Tejaswi Yadav might be in jail any time. BJP had been trying to split RJD but failed so far.
BJP lotus operated in Bihar when two of RJD and one from Congress MLAs voted for BJP nominees for the Raya Sabha elections held on 27 February, 2024 elections.
Lok Janshakti Party (LJP)
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. The party was formed in 2000 when Ram Vilas Paswan split Janata Dal to float Lok Janshakti Party. It contested the polls in alliance with the Indian National Congress and the Rashtriya Janata Dal and won four Lok Sabha seats.
Chirag Paswan became President of the Party after his father, Ram Vilas Paswan, expired in October 2020. Chirag severed ties with BJP and contested alone in the Bihar Assembly polls in which it failed to win a seat.
The BJP conspired with Chirag Paswan in the Assembly elections of 2020. The Lok Janshakti Party (LJP), was advised to field candidates against Janata Dal United. The JDU led by Nitish Kumar went down from 71 seats in 2015 to 43 in 2020. In the web of Chirag model, Nitish Kumar was tangled.
BJP effected split led by Pashupati Kumar Paras, Hajipur MP, the younger brother of Ram Vilas Paswan with five out of its six MPs in the Lok Sabha revolted against party chief Chirag Paswan. Paras became leader of the party in Lok Sabha and a Minister under BJP government.
BJP again befriended with Chirag Paswan allocated five Parliamentary seats whereas Pashupati Kumar Paras was allotted one seat. Paras, though rued but kept mum for the time being fearing isolation.
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. Ram Manjhi – Hindustani Avaam Morcha (HAM).
Manjhi had been a Janata Dal (United) member before he was expelled by Nitish Kumar, who made him Chief Minister for a brief period. He had been with Congress earlier. Manjhi formed Hindustani Avaam Morcha Party. He is being tossed again and again by the BJP to wipe it out from Bihar, however he is allotted one seat and has won sworn in as a Cabinet Minister in Modi Government 3.0.
Vikasheel Insaan Party (VIP) led by Mukesh Sahni
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by ModiInsan Party (VIP) Chief Mukesh Sahni severed his alliance with . NDA and joined RJD-led Mahagathbandhan where his will contest three Lok Sabha seats of Gopalganj, Jhanjharpur and East Champaran. He did not win a single seat.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will contest 17 out of 40 seats in Bihar while the Nitish Kumar-led Janata Dal (U) got 16 seats in the deal announced by the NDA for the Lok Sabha elections.
Lok Janashakti Party (Ram Vilas) will contest Jamui, Hajipur, Khagaria, Samastipur and Vaishali under Chirag Paswan. He won all the five seats and became a Cabinet Minister under Modi 3.0. Hindustani Awaaj Morcha and Rashtriya Lok Morcha will contest 1 seat each.
The Kushwaha factor
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by ModiUpendra Kushwaha, had been in RJD when. he walked out to form Rashtriya Lok Samata Party in 2013. He was also with JD(U) in the past.
He aligned with BJP for 2014 Lok Sabha elections. He won three seats. But walked out from NDA for Lok Sabha elections 2019. His performance was dismal and hence he aligned with RJD led Grand Alliance.
In 2020 Bihar Legislative Assembly election, Upendra Kushwaha pulled his party out of the Grand Alliance.
The party entered into an alliance Bahujan Samaj Party, Janatantrik Party (Socialist), All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), Samajwadi Janata Dal, Bharatiya Samaj Party of Suheldev (based in UP). Kushwaha formed a Democratic Secular Front.
The Front declared Upendra Kushwaha a Chief Ministerial candidate. It failed miserably. AIMIM won five seats and BSP one. Later all these candidates joined RJD. Later, Kushwaha merged his party with JDU.
On 20 February 2023, Kushwaha resigned from JDU and announced the formation of a new party called Rashtriya Lok Janata Dal.
He is now aligned with BJP for 2024 Elections and was allotted one seat. But BJP might not depend on him as it had promoted Samrat Chaudhary from the same caste. He was defeated under Modicide spray.
Weedicide spray – The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. Uttar Pradesh
Samajwadi Party
Weedicide spray -The Regional Parties’ wipeout by Modi. Aka the real kith and kin of Netaji Mulayam Singh Yadav, the father figure of Samajwadi Party. He was a disciple of Ram Manohar Lohia. Enter Mulayam Singh, the entire Muslim community commuted with him in Uttar Pradesh, particularly, after the demolition of Babri Masjid.
Hither to, Muslim brethren had been with the Congress Party since independence. Muslims opined that Congress Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao conspired with elements of Babri misadventure and thus they revolted against Congress in Uttar Pradesh.
However, at the fag-end of his political career in 2019, Mulayam Singh Yadav wished to see Narendra Modi as next Prime Minister. His praise of Modi was not liked by many Muslims.
The duo Amit Shah and Narendra Modi supported by their bete noire Yogi Aditya Nath used all the means to weaken Samajwadi Party under the stewardship of Akhilesh Yadav.
Splits were effected by his uncles and hidden agents of the Samajwadi Party, but was of no avail.
He fought fiercely with his father Mulayam Singh and his uncle Shivpal Yadav to retain the reins of the Party. Amar Singh acted as an agent of BJP for many years. Ram Gopal Yadav has been another ploy of BJP at present.
Akhilesh overcame all the odds and remained steady fast. Efforts are on by way of agencies to wreck him. Akhilesh was summoned to Delhi by CBI in a 14 years old case on 28th February, 2024.
He replied that he was available for any query in Lucknow and he would not be able to go to Delhi though virtual consultation was open. However, seven of his Legislators voted for BJP nominees for Rajya Sabha elections held on 27 Feb. 24. Most of them were from Brahmins and Thakur community.
Akhilesh has become a formidable force in INDIA alliance and has become a great challenger to BJP in UP. He held various rallies with Rahul Gandhi and organised a Press Conference before start of the first phase of Parliamentary elections. The party won 37 MP seats, a commendable victory which led to a minority position of BJP in Modi 3.0 government.
