According to people's opinions, the first Modi government which literally caused irreparable damage to the country appears determined to carry on and complete some agenda during this second term in a hurry. There are many people belonging to all walks of life, organisations, communities, medias, journalists, political parties, thinkers, writers and true patriots inside and outside the country watching with anxiety the plight of the country and its diminishing values, ideologies and economy. Many people are of the opinion that the constitution of India which is considered as one of the best in the world will be altered and changed according to the convenience of some rulers. Even though no constitutional amendments are officially initiated, secularism appears as if it does not exist and communal unrest and disharmony is prevailing in most parts of the country particularly in the central and some northers states.
There are many impartial people who fear that the Modi government is working slowly for the abolition of Democracy in India and to make the system of Indian government similar to that of North Korea or China when they see all opposition leaders are witch-hunted using the machinery of the state. This is to send a terror signal to the other political leaders either to attract them to the BJP fold in a cheap and unethical manner or to shut their mouths without criticising the government or its party or leaders.
The leaders of opposition representing all political parties (except those formally or informally backing the NDA's moves) in the country are aware that they will be booked under some fake cases shortly. So every day one can witness leaders belonging to other political parties jumping to the BJP fold for safety, security, immunity and prosperity.
The recent dramatic incidents shown to arrest top Congress leaders P Chidambaram and D K Shivkumar is a warning to the other political leaders who oppose the whims and fancies of the government. Many national leaders belonging to Congress party and other parties like TMC, AAP, TRS, TDP etc are gripped by fear and are awaiting for the consequences of opposing the BJP.
It is a good and commendable move if a government shows courage to take stern action against corrupt leaders however big they are. But when corrupt people join the BJP, immediately all actions initiated against them will be stopped. This is what had happened in the case of the four Rajya Sabha Members of the Telugu Desam party who joined the BJP after the general elections. When MPs Y S Chowdary, C M Ramesh, T G Venkatesh and G Mohan Rao were in the TDP party they were hunted and raided by the CBI and IT departments, but when they joined the BJP on June 20th 2019, they immediately became धार्मिक and holy and those very departments who were hunting them started saluting them!!! When asked by another leader about this during a TV debate, the BJP chief or spokesman's reply was that they have less members in the Rajya sabha and they need to increases it!
With such unethical, illegal and dishonest activities the BJP is sending an open message to all the leaders of the opposition parties, "if you want to be safe and tension-free, join the BJP or be prepaid to face severe consequences..."
Who (which leader) will be jumping the party ship next ..?
It can be Shashi Tharoor the Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram and/or Jyotiraditya Scindia from Madhya Pradesh, or anyone who may think there won't be any political future in their present party and who fears that they can be hunted anytime unless and otherwise they perform the sacred act of party-switching!
