Apart from all the negatives of Bihar elections, let us now look at the positive narratives...
1) Hope Modi and Shah has realised now that BJP cannot ride the 2014 Modi wave forever. they need to find and promote local leaders like Raman Singh or Vasundhara Raje.... This will take years but atleast, it won't be like the Delhi fiasco where the CM candidate joined the party 15 days before elections!!!
2) BJP has to look at the bigger picture... that is winning India in 2019. For this they might even have to play the second fiddle to small state level players if it means disallowing the Congress to form an unified opposition. They need to stitch up regional allies like AGP (in Assam), BJD (in orrissa) and make the existing allies feel more secure and more comfortable as partners (read Akalis or SS or TDP).
3) BJP must realise that vast majority of young voters or its hardcore supporters didn't elect Modi to pu$$yfoot Congress or play Gandhigiri. Go hard after the mother-son duo. Expose Vadra, Khurshid, Chiddu.... the Congress closet is so corrupt to the core that once it starts to stink... it will be a no go territory for any voters come 2019 elections. Congress had the Hindutva plank to play against BJP and they overplayed it. It was their last resort. Nothing else is left in their armory. When your enemy calls you Hitler and what not.... Gentleman's politics and Gandhigiri goes out the window.
4) Last but not the least, as much as we hate the presstitutes, BJP must realise in 21st century, its media management and marketing ploys that goes a long way in carrying forward your pov. If anyparty has serious corporate backing, it is the BJP. Like TV18, buy major media houses or influence them (go to any extent whatever deemed necessary). If Congress can play the game for 15 years, why not the BJP?
