Last general election and recently concluded state assemblies in four states saw decline of BJP (Bharatiya Janta Party, the right wing Indian political party, who was the only non-congress government in independent India to complete a full term.
BJP Leader LK Adwani Worried man
First they lost general election second time to Congress. Though their vote share remained almost same and their number of MP came down marginally, but they have seen few infighting between their top leaders. Jaswant Singh has been ousted from BJP and many uncomfortable questions on BJP top leadership has been raised.
In the recent assembly election, BJP-Shivsena combine was expected to do well in Mahrasthra, one of the most industrially developed state in India. The present ruling coalition between Congress and NCP ( Nationalist Congress Party, a breakaway group of Congress led by union agriculture minister Sarad Power) had been very poor in governance, was in power for last 10 years. 26/11 incident where Pakistani nationals attacked Mumbai city and killed more than 180 people including foreigners and top police officers of Mumbai, happened during their rule. Still, surprising everyone, NCP-Congress combine came to power. Many analysts opine that BJP-Shivsena vote share was eaten away by MNS ( Maharasthra Navnirman Sena), a break away Shivsena party led by Raj Thackeray, which won handful of seats. They even emerged as the second largest party in prestigious Mumbai city.
BJP has done very poorly in Haryana ( another prosperous Indian state near Indian capital New Delhi) too. Though, no body expected BJP to win in Haryana, but their tally of 4 seats is meager for a national party like BJP.
Also recently, BJP is facing infighting in Karnataka which BJP is ruling for the first time. Karnataka is also first south Indian state where BJP came to power. Most probably, BJP needs a introspection and should act as powerful opposition party.
