BJP is needed in the centre for at least a decade, only BJP and Congress can give a stable government, and Congress is in a rotten state right now, unless they make some serious changes in the top leadership, they should not come back. We can't afford to have a Sonia Gandhi & Rahul Gandhi led Congress again in the government. BJP has done well previously, but if they continue with this high-pitched Hindutva drama being promoted by the RSS and its affiliates, they are not coming back.
2014 election result:
BJP: 31% votes - a rise of 12.20% vote from 2009 poll - 282 seats.
Congress: 19.31% votes - a fall of 9.24% vote from 2009 poll - 44 seats.
BJP got a clear majority with 31% votes, and Congress formed a government with allies in 2009 election with just 28.55% of votes and 206 seats.
Congress is better in alliance politics, and a mere shift of roughly 5% votes from BJP to Congress can jeopardize BJP's fortune, all of those 31% votes that BJP got were not Hindutavadi votes. RSS is just a parasite riding on BJP's back on the waves of an unprecedented anti-Congress feeling all over India because of their utter failure in governance, price rise, corruption, and Rahul gandhi, as well as the popularity of Modi.
What you say is true.What I meant was that I voted for BJP due to their growth oriented policies,that they publicized in their election campaign manifest and not for some Hindutva bs,because the idea of religion itself is just a big nonsense to me.So as long as they continue on their stated path of development,my vote will remain for them,be it one decade or five- doesn't matter.
