@@artis4985 i said nothing about islam And yet you said it
I think the one point you didn’t mention is that at the top level BJP has enjoyed a perception of being clean - at least in the past. When there was an allegation against Advani he resigned. When Bangaru was caught - he resigned. Nitin Gadkari also did. They all stayed out until their names were cleared. Look at Gandhi-Vadra family in contrast
And that’s the reason Congress is out of power and will remain out of power in foreseeable future

My grandfather was a freedom fighter who passed away in 1999. He would have been so proud to see this day and age when BJP rules strong. Growing up, I watched him follow every election and multiple newspapers with the conviction that BJP would come to power some day. And I used to think that he was an incorrigible dreamer.

I'm not supporter of any political party, but credit where due. BJP has changed the politics of the country.
The dismantling of Congress's status quo and BJP becoming no.1 party in the country.
The discipline in rank and file of BJP is remarkable
All they have encouraged is corruption and harrassing of minorities in this country
I think if you blame a common enemy for something (economy, political crisis, bad weather)
You can easily get people on board.
People are gullible that way.
Say Pakistan is responsible for smog in Delhi. Watch how quickly people forget about economy in Delhi or other issues.

Democracy inside BJP is admirable and every party should learn it.
They don't have a democracy though, I guess what you mean is that the party isn't in control of a single "royal family", and anyone can ascend to be the "Great Leader", but once a Great Leader is established, every single MLA, MP even karyakarta falls in line
@@samraatbharat6325 u r wrong in the bjp there is an internal democracy..Which is there since its inception.. Whoever doing wrong in the responsibile position they should resign... Wether it is Advani, yadiyurappa,whoever it is... That's the example set by the party
Say that to hatras girl.
@@madhudonaswamy7525 adbani dumped by modi for power. And about democracy hatras is big example. BJP bubble nice words but do nothing. their issue was less priced fuel gas. Now see where we are. Now family based on every day income cant afford gas fuel. We are getting hard time to secure coal here. Every one want their hand on it.. and they just regular people , child no theif.
@MG not denied current condition of West Bengal. Ever since tmc come to power condition getting worsen day by day. BJP neither want any improvement. Also they hied all mafia(1 MLA contribute 500 core , all of that money comes from coal. Some top lv singer type bjp mla also get that taste of that money monthly .. how did I know just zoom over my nameplate logo) type MLA to win election. When they lost the vote switch the party. Money flowing TMC through BJP. If BJP wanted to they have to focus on villages , panchayat elections. But they need up with dangas in asansol areas. How people of bengal can tust them now? Even core workers are now started to join other party.

There is a level of unity in the BJP that's very rare to see. The party knows its strengths and weaknesses.
Keeping their ideology and policies aside, they are a remarkable and a stealthy organization.
I don't think they are stealthy, its not their fault that media didn't think of covering them or giving any importance to them...They are however LEAN.
I agree! its amazing what you can achieve if you don't care one bit about the future of the nation, people or the world.

So whats the point . The PM controls everything. The party president is a useless job . If he didn't have support he wouldn't be PM lol !

BJP taught other parties
Secularism ≠ appeasement
Rationality ≠ mocking Hinduism
rationality ≠ mocking islam , Sir tan se juda how peacfull we are
Actually Nationalosm # mock islam..But sadly it involves opposing radical Islam
every religion, including Hinduism should be put under scrutiny. a religion which doesn't allow scrutiny really has some red flags. I think we need to have an honest and rational discussion on whether the caste system and untouchability have a basis in Hindu scriptures and not just adaptations via culture.
@@Ashish-yo8ci then Why libbus call it hate speech when some one talks about scripture sanctioned intolerance, térrórísm, misogyny, hatred towards kàfírs is izlam? Why SC fined 50k on an activist who mentioned 24 ayats of asmani kitab which are against other faiths?Why libbu cry when movies like kashmiri files talks about the history?
2nd about caste system. Acc to hinduism Hierarchy in society should be decided on the basis of karma not from the place of birth.
This is super amazing that a journalist accepted he was incorrect in the past.
This almost never happen!
Hats off to SG!
That was not the only mistake he made. He was predicting Congress comeback in 2014 in NDTV debate where Pronab was having party, ready to celebrate. Worst though in 2019, SG almost felt that BJP getting more than 225 on their own will be difficult and NDA will be short of majority getting only 250. He was miles apart in his analysys, almost 100 seats. Today, everyone becomes saint in hindsight.
13:53 In Shah Bano, the Indian state decided to supersede the courts and move in favour of religious rights over human rights. But it gets called a "tamasha" (meaning a fuss). This isn't the first time Guptaji has been funny around this issue. Indians need to realise Shah Bano isn't a worthless right wing critism of Congress, it's a human rights issue that concerns the left as well.
I don't think he means tamasha in this manner, he means the tamasha that the congress created after the SC decision.
@@devilsmirk5826
No he doesn't, Guptaji has downplayed Shah Bano previously. One such time was when he called Shah Bano "a right wing criticism", disassociating the issue from the left. Objectively, Shah Bano is a bipartisan issue.
Don't worry , one movie will be made on shah bano and the entire left propoganda will be demolished , like it happened on Kashmiri pundit issue . 🙏🏻
@@prakhargupta1405 shah bano files
@@prakhargupta1405
I think it's unfair to say "the entire left" here. There are sensible people on both sides.
One need only read our textbooks to see why the rise of the Hindu right was inevitable. No other nation glorifies its historical oppressors (Mughals, Delhi Sultanate) and downplays its heroes/martyrs eg Shivaji Maharaj!
No other nation was under oppression for 1000+ year, people have changed, they don't know what they had. its sad :(
@@user-vm8bz2ch1u We weren’t under oppression for 1000+ years, there was always resistance. The only period with no significant resistance, from the fall of Vijaynagar to the birth of Shivaji lasted only 70 years.
When the f did congress down played shivaji ? Didn't your parents saw programs based on Shivaji, Ashoka and Prithviraj Chauhan and Mahabharata, Ramayana at doordarshan. This is just non sensical propoganda that I just really hate
@@bhardwajr01 yup
Right
The untimely death of sushma swaraj, arun jaitly, gopinath munde, pramod mahajan and Manohar parikar made a huge dent in BJP leadership. But the beauty is that it kept on bouncing back more stronger. A great sign of a powerful organization.
I will vote for BJP for the first time in next election. I want AP which has great potential to develop as wealthy as states such as Gujarat.

Good choice ☺️
If Modi is elected india will be sold..(broker)

While explaining BJP growth over the years all analysts fail to state that even in 1984 elections when BJP got only 2 seats, they were the 2nd largest party in terms of vote share, with 7.7% of all votes. Actually, 1984 elections laid the foundation for future growth of the party.
Oh wow! Good information. That means they had covered large area of country to get that 7.7% vote share
In 1984 despite Indira Gandhi assassination sympathy wave 7.7% vote share means good start..
I think the biggest reason for BJP's rise was Rajiv Gandhi.
The rise of BJP started with Rajiv Gandhi's Gigantic blunder in 1985 when he amended the constitution in the Shah Bano case, to pander to the minority community by abusing his power. This brazen act has made the rational and thinking people of the country furious and thus began the ascent of BJP. It has since been a slow bleed for Congress.
I'd say the entire tenure of Rajiv Gandhi resulted in BJP's rise. Rajiv did the Shah Bano controversy in 1985, opened up the gates of Ram Mandir and laid the foundation stone in 1986-87, and then there was the Bofors corruption scandal, along with the draconian anti-defemation law. All these things meant that Congress lost its core voters, upper caste Hindus, who then almost entirely shifted to the BJP, and over the course the next thirty years a lot of middle caste and lower caste Hindus also shifted to the BJP, especially after Modi's rise
Rise of BJP was mainly due to mismanagement during UPA 2. You name it, they had a scam for it.
Nope , it's one and only .. Rahul Gandhi.. he is a true Bjpian by heart.
@@karthiksrinivashubli True. Rahul gandhi is carrying on his father's legacy of working for the advantage of bjp😂🤣
@@sid8285 🤣🤣👍👍👍

Thanks. Very well compiled.
Can we have similar CTC on the Congress journey... putting their electoral performance since 1947 into perspective?
I think what bjp got, congress lose on all of that issue be it findings young leader, internal party democracy, meritocracy, and strick ideology.. This 4 point the congress lag whivh led to them in current situation and its doesn't seems relief in near future to them.... In mean while the Arvind kejriwal lef AA may be in mear future will be a great opposition to bjp qith there like minded party.. Lets were the indin politics goes
Q
When I see rise of BJP it gives me hope, it's an organisation with hardworking people, it's an organisation with never changing ideology and principles which for me is the most important of all the traits BJP possess.
It's hard for me to put my trust in a person/organisation/party which keeps changing their ideologies like they change their clothes.
But 'ideology' is just a fancy way of saying they are bigoted and hate Muslims. What hope does that give? Shouldn't hope be for 130 crores people and not just 80%?
@@motabhai7287 Muslims have hated Hindus since long, infact it's a fancy way of saying IT'S THEIR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.
try to understand the real meaning of AZAAN, it basically says their way is the only way and other ways are false.
So it's just a reaction of the majority to their bigotry
You are wrong, BJP's main strength is, not in the points you.made. their strength lyie in
1. Adoptability,
2.Looking into future.
3.planning. and
4. Taking responsibility.
5. Strong grassroot,
With all these it is bound to go stronger day by day.
@@motabhai7287 BJP ideology is Rashtrawad, Hindutva and Service.. Where is muskim hate in this.
@@highplatform1649 So why do BJP not take proper action on those giving hate speeches like Yati?
Why don't people usually leave BJP? This has more to do with why they join BJP in the first place.
People join BJP as a form of social service and not as a career track (as in most other parties), and BJP workers make a lot of sacrifices simply by joining the party. When other parties do badly, their workers' careers become less lucrative and the workers defect. When BJP does badly, their workers are badly affected as well but then, personal gain was never the motivation in the first place.
Consider a live example: West Bengal (my home state). Here, BJP workers are routinely raped and murdered, and their houses / shops / farms razed or burnt. Yet, BJP's loyal workers continue to fight and the party has seen relatively few defections (only the people who joined BJP for career growth have left). Which other party could have held out under such extreme levels of state-sponsored persecution?
True 👍
Absolutely correct!!!
In Bengal also there Red volunteer you may forgot to mention. They provide grate service during pandemic. Most of without any party funds.
@@positivekumar3546 wait and watch..Amit Shah permanent solution nikalta hai..
Absolutely on point example. Vision 2026 💪
Don't forget everyone, ppl like Sekhar Gupta's contribution for the rise of party like BJP is long lasting! Such deep seated hatred for BJP is a sort of fuel for every karyakarta
I wish my father would have been alive to watch the Bharatiya Janta party's success, he was stabbed twice for supporting the party in the 90s, and since then My family didn't allow him to participate in politics. Unfortunately, he died in 2011 and Modi Ji came into power in 2014.
May the gods bless such a great man 🙏
May god bless his soul 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow!!!What an amazing achievement. Other parties should learn from BJP.
ya should , how ti kill a girl then burn him .. without informing their family [ hatras]
BJP looks undefeatable atleast in the near future. They have caught the pulse of this country. Proper amalgamation of development and culture. If anybody wants to defeat the BJP it has to be from the right. If u consider more developement and more hindutva then it can be possible but from the left it is impossible. People have realised their identity and know what is right for this country.
No way , you can praise BJP on development. Even I am a BJP voter because of the lack of an alternative but no, BJP have failed in terms of finance sector and development
Downturn of BJP will be from within, note my words. like Congress.
@@bhardwajr01 i suggest pick a regional party instead of no alternative so BJP. it is a political move by BJP to showcase that there's no alternative so vote BJP for example in Delhi there's been AAP. Don't think there's no alternative we are a multiparty democracy not a two party state
Good observation
@@justsomeguy1695 I am from UP and it was BJP vs SP and SP was a lot worst then BJP so no alternatives for us
Excellent presentation of BJS/BJP history. You have excelled yourself! Thumbs up to you.
You must convert this CTC into a written history of BJP. I have been voting for BJS/BJP since 1971 election, though I have not endorsed everything done by this Party. Amongst all the political parties at national level, BJP still remains the most trustworthy party. At regional level there is a lot of muck in BJP.
One the biggest achievement of Bjp is that most of the leaders,elected representatives belong to common families without any political background.We despite ideological differences appreciate it.
BJP is truly the only Democratic party with accountability and competence. You can only rise up the ranks if you are a good worker. It's a meritocratic organisation.
Another big point about BJP is that, honest leaders at the highest level.
Bajpeyi ji and Modiji.
It's vajpayee ...😍😍😍♥️👍👍🇮🇳
Have you heard of anonymous political donations called as "electoral bonds" of which bjp gets 90% of the funds? This scheme was opposed by RBI, EC and Income Tax departments but the BJP Govt made it a law anyways. Going by number of full page ads across Indian newspapers before UP election, it is estimated bjp spent 7000 crores only for UP. A case relating to electoral bonds will be heard in SC shortly. Have you heard of a guy called Jay Shah's property increasing from 50000 to 30 crores in 2 years? Have you heard of AIIMS scam by JP Nadda? Have you heard of 40000 crores irrigation scam in Maharashra and main accused Ajit Pawar of NCP was given clean chit and file closed by BJP CM Fadnavis? Are you aware Fadnavis had tried to form Govt with the same guy's support, in fact taken oath as CM but the attempt failed? Do you know why Alok Verma was dismissed as CBI chief overnight? Bcoz he wanted to investigate Rafale scam. Have you questioned support for vanity projects by Modi like 3000 crores Sardar Patel statue in Gujarat or similar such Shivaji statue project in Maharashtra? I have also heard many scams did not come out Gujarat when modi was CM bcoz he had very tight control over the press. Very recently, Ravish Kumar had a segment in his Prime Time show showing how MP taxpayers money was splurged on completely useless vanity projects worth hundreds of crores, this is only recent example, I am sure you will find more. More, Delhi MCD run by BJP is full of corruption and they were guaranteed to lose so BJP forced EC to delay election one hour before they were about to announce dates, passed Delhi MCD unification act in Parliament within a week and found a backdoor means to control a municipal corporation even if they lose. Anyone who thinks BJP is better than other parties at corruption has no idea what they're talking about, they are actually much worse.
@@amols101 This is called propaganda. People stopped believing these fabricated stories by the by so-called secular and self acclaimed neutral journalists.

Dear SG, 1984 elections was different. Congress got 400+ seats and BJP 2 not because of good governance or policies of then congress govt but because of assassination of Mrs Indira Gandhi.
Correct bro
Whatever may be the case, it happened. People also say BJP won so big in 2019 because what happened in Kashmir.
One more Fact in 1984 election BJP was number two part in 90 seats. So they may have won only 2 seats but they has there voter base.

6. people to people connect, truly proletariat party
7. social democratic welfare policy
There are tons of examples of dynastic politicians even in bjp. As for "accountability for failure", modi should have stepped down as PM after second wave of covid. 3 million+ are dead by unofficial estimates. Also, this Govt's handling of recent "evacuation" of students from Ukraine was literally the worst in the world. The Wire has done three full episodes fact checking various Govt claims on that issue. I will not even get into complete disastrous schemes like demonetization, complete failure to deal with inflation and unemployment, PM lying bold faced on key national security issues on TV after making fake promises like showing laal aankh to China etc. too long list to type here. And what is this ideology? Increasing human rights abuses using draconian laws like UAPA and Sedition and making life hell for minorities?
The more I read about the Bjp and its structure iam inclined to follow the stories of the Bjp as a political party.Avery well structured party with disciplined party members.
I used to hate RSS and BJP, until I visited my local RSS headquarters and just listened to those people. It's a organisation that treats people like people, not replaceable cogs. They have these people they call Parcharaks who don't marry and give all their life for the organisation. I met a 96 year old Pracharak and every need of his is being taken care of, valued for his service to the Nation.
and yet party member hoping from this BJP to another party after that party to bjp again.
My simple observation on BJP party unprecedented electoral success is, they never (politically) victimized a loyal party worker (leader), rather they uplift each other. e.g Hemanta was made CM assam & Sonowal was given a Ministry at the center.
"Equitable Progress " is their mantra.
.. Just a layman's view.
even bommai from karnataka
Bengal workers say hi
Then you simply know recent history and not past. How Keshubhai Patel, Shankar Singh Wagherla were sidelined by Modi in 1998-2001 era
How Kalyan Singh was played by Vajpayee in 1997-98.
How Modi as Incharge of Himachal BJP ensured Veteran Shanta Kumar lost for his friend Prem Dhumal (Son of Anurag Thakur) in 1997 and made him lose in 2017 to make way for Jairam Thakur.
How Uma Bharti was humiliated in BJP Parliamentary Board by All Veterans in 2004 and left the Party along with Kalyan Singh,Madan Lal Khurana:3 former CMs to form a New Party till 2007 and Won little Bit. And Young Gen was against them then: Modi,Rajnath,Naidu,Sushma,Jaitley..
The Tricks of Pramod Mahajan in bringing BJP to power.
How Yeddyurappa was removed in 2011, then brought back in 2013 by Modi and now again removed by him only in 2021.
And How Vajpayee and Nanaji Deshmukh removed Deendayal Upadhyaya,Balraj Madhok in 1967 and Vajpayee himself removed Nanaji Deshmukh later and forced him to retire in 1975. How He was cornered by RSS-Advani but was brought back as Secular Face.
And in current era, how MoSha have silenced all voices within the Party.
Coming to Sonowal who's from AGP:which BJP ate in Assam and Hbs From Congress. BJP is wholeheartedly welcoming all Congressis: From Bahugunas to Scindias to Jitin-RPN to Himanta: Its Congis ruling in Saffron 😂😂
Also, BJP eats up and destroys it's own allies: Akalis in Punjab,JDU in Bihar, LJP in Bihar,Now VIP. TDP in Andhra,AIADMK in Tamil Nadu. Shivsena Realised it and moved out.
I know that bcoz they are winning, all of their things will be whitewashed and they will be shown as Saints. But Shah was not allowed to enter Gujarat for 2 years from 2010-2012 by Judgement of Gujarat High Court.
BJP wins only because of propoganda, gone are the days when parties used to put their agendas for economic and social development for votes
@@sirantisocial9681 and then never worked on their agendas after winning :)
The Fact that BJP has broken narratives of it being a Brahmin-Baniya Party theiry grassroot involvenebt with Dalits and Tribals has helped them leaps and bounds especially in places like Ladakh, Chattisgadh, Orissa, North East.
It has managing to eat into Shiv Sena, Congress and NCP in Maharahtra says a lot.
While people are pitching AAP right now, AAP real test will now come in Delhi-Punjab and both these states keep damaging each other and will be their eventual downfall.

I remember wearing this colour kurta on every independence and republic days when I was in school like most of us here. No need to be appologetic.
BJP follows harshad mehta principle and has made “ 100 aise logo ki sena jo apna 100 taka dene ko taiyar hai" and therefore they are creating history and future at the same time
An excellent episode on BJP and an analysis of where it comes from and its DNA. Both, BJP and its opponents have a lot to learn. I congratulate you and your team to put this episode together, I am sure it will serve as a documentary for the menials!
@Shekhar ji. You didn't need to say "Color of my kurta is an accident". Even if BJP Relates to it, relation of (H)Indian culture to this color is much older. This color was used by Sikh Gurus as well as Buddhists. Any of us using this color doesn't make us related to any party.
Sensible words, further I would like add how Hinduism can be relate to BJP??
BJP may relate to Hinduism, but they are not the proponents or hold any copy rights to this religion or any religion.
That's how Sekhar Gupta's brain operates, he wants to dissociate from everything that is Indian because a party that he hates Indian, he'd be happy if Italian runs the government
@@AK-yw9qs yes, no one can own it. But BJP is a political party, so they can follow it and publicize about it. So can any other party. Lately more parties have tried to prove that they follow Hindu culture. It is in their right to try. It is in people's right to believe them or not.
The Credit Of BJP Success is also because of thier passionate workers who works so hard on ground level, I never seen any party member tried to tell thier message to Everyone even in small villages .
It's very nice of you to accept that your views went wrong on bjp gaining majority status.... and you had to eat your own words. Our respects for you. Great analysis. We enjoyed 🙏
Hard Core reality topic
BHARAT MATA KI JAI
One another reason why BJP has fewer defections is because they have an ideology ( atleast the Top and middle level leaders have) which binds people. Other Parties lack that and only fight for Power
The BJP has captured the very real concern that democracy, secularism and national integrity, as well as education, minority rights, women's rights etc can only thrive as long as Muslims are not in power.
Where is the education mister , where BJP leader told people to drink gau mutra and gobar during pandemic. Does private schools get controlled. Now people have money lots of money can give good education to their children .. others just doomed. while no single jobs govt can offer now
@@Warrukbadikpapa No clue what you're on about. Better to just stick to Dhruv Rathee.
@@Warrukbadikpapa Dont you feel shame as a Hindu making fun of other hindus with the 'Gau mutra' jibe?
God is on BJP's side. That's the only explanation for the choice of SG's kurta
Only bhakths are on BJP's side who don't understand anything
@@Vizorfam what's wrong in being a bhakth

@@Vizorfam you people were on congress side......kya ukhad lia?
@@rajatagarwal6662 i like aap not Congress
Great analysis and presentation of BJP history. Congress people should watch this video to revive the party by implementation of 5 point strategy of BJP. Sometimes it is good to learn things even from your opposition.
Congress doesn't have any ideology tbh
Even before Independence, it had no ideology but a platform for all kinds of people. Congress should have been dissolved post Independence as suggested by Gandhi but Nehru was power hungry b!tch
"My political analysis at that time told me that BJP can never win power on its own in India and BJP cannot have such a wide acceptability". This is a verbatim reproduction of Shri. Shekhar Gupta monologue in this episode. Shri Shekhar Gupta appear to a nice man , but he is like an economist who tells things after they have happened. He can analyze what went right or wrong after the event but unfortunately do not have his ears to the ground to know what is going to happen.
Oh really, do you think he is a future teller who can predict 25 years in the future. If I randomly say, AAP will be the single largest party after 25 years, what will you say. You will say it is impossible, but what if it ends up happening after lets say 20-25 years, then do I get the right to call you an idiot who didn't had any ground knowledge?
The Print has always been the epitome of clear and unbiased news journalism and reporting. Today’s episode was pellucid and left no confusion about Bhartiya Janata Party electoral success. ❤️
Amit Shah is like a gangster for BJP.Every opposition party is scared of Amit Shah.
New Pramod Mahajan
Only criminals & Jihadists mentality ,India's internal enemies are afraid of Amit Shah.
@@KshitijBhambri1 yes
So unbiased, great
Shekhar, the rise of the BJP is also a reflection of corresponding fall of the opposition through the same time! Sure enough credit must be given to BJP- politics is all about strategy and timing- like cricket!
Any healthy and thriving democracy, essentially needs to have a fine balance- too much power to any one side is counter productive to the health of democracy!
Bjp was the opposition all this time.
Where was this balancing opposition from 1952 till 1997 ?? This we need a strong opposition is just a slogan borrowed from the strictly left - right binary politics of wealthy western democracies .... Look at Singapore or even our next door Bangladesh.... Till critical economic prosperity is achieved and economic stakeholders become a counterweight to political players a strong ideologically motivated single party can do wonders....
I am in 100% agreement with u, but without the BJP being well run they would have never made it this big, basically stronger than Indra Gandhi's Congress.
There have been multiple incidences where even BJP has made big errors like Banning currency, the entire mess that happened in Kashmir - where we shot our own helicopter, lost planes, our pilot getting caught. The absolute mess during the 2nd wave of the Covid, The economy has been trash for the past 5 years etc etc.
Has congress taken any advantage of all this !!! none at all.
@@PK-tt5kk Economy is trash... Are you high on something.... India has recently reached 3 trillion dollars GDP and 10 trillion dollars of forex reserves.... From 2018 onwards the economy of the entire world has been on the down side and after 2020 we know it's all because of Covid19... You can just login to World Bank Site and check the numbers.... Also, Kashmir issue was mainly due to Congress.... Infact BJP solved the Kashmir issue by removing article 370, much before the movie The Kashmir files....
@@PK-tt5kk Brother I see development on ground level , before 2014 we used to get electricity only 3-5 hours per day but after 2014 it's unusual to get a electricity 🔌 breakage even for an hour or so , no 🛣️ roads were their before 2014 in many districts and tehsils but after 2014 the infrastructure development is very appreciable , Highways and fourlanes were not on pan India level but now u can see how great the road infrastructure has became , and also Internet , though It has nothing to do with bjp but jio also came near 2016 , and lot's of people think that's free internet (for 1 year) and cheap internet after jio arrival is somesort of Government's (BJP'S) doing and clashing with Paxtan (Surgical and Airstrike) after terrorist attacks , removing 370 and solving the Ram mandir dispute which was their since 500 years , these all are achivements and if you even see them one by one seperately all the events take different types of voters with them and most of them are permanent voters for a party like bjp , it will be very difficult to revert a bjp voter and his/her thinking untill a Powerful or strong opposition with a new and different mindset doesn't arrive , with opposition like Congress and Aap , Bjp will going to win elections without any problems (In most of the states where they have tighten their hands and most of the areas where the Mindset or ideology of Bjp has been reached) , & *The events happening in West bengal, Maharashtra , karnatka all are going to make this ideology , our(Andhbhakts) mindset more stronger , you can call as Andhbhakts but also remember bhakt is a positive word which has been used for devotion since ancient time and if u think that you (liberals) can change it's divine meaning so you r very wrong my brother 😌. Peace out , and also learn that we 'Hindus' are the true liberals and we are the true seculars unlike today's pseudo liberals 😛
Modi once said in his speech -
For BJP, ideology comes even before party, party comes before people unlike Congress where Gandhis no matter how incompetent come before party, ideology & even country.
Shekhar has been in denial about BJP for last 7 years….now he goes with the flow…..FOR old school reporters that enjoyed privilege under Congress this transition has been very tough…..people like Shekhar always portray BJP as Hindu nationalists with a negative tone…according to people like him, secularism is minority appeasement. He doesn’t like Hindus much and completely ignored the hindu genocide in Kashmir….he pretended it never happened because he was on the Congress pay roll.
BJP puts Bharat first. Everything they do is Bharat first. Vajpayee's comment about grooming younger generation to carry the torch and mantle tells everything one needs to know about this organization. This is why they succeed, pure and simple.
Sir, well researched and interpreted, I haven't seen many people like you in journalism these days. This requires lot of effort and work to do one such episode, this shows you are running a good news outlet with lots of talent. Some what similar to current BJP
BJP is the Best Party....BJP is more like Family Less Like Party...always a supporter Of BJP...🚩🚩
"Difficult time creates strong people & easy times makes weak people" this hold true for BJP & Congress context.
Congress saw difficult times during independence so it has strong leaders afterwards, they got absolute easy power for decades afterwards while BJP was going through difficult time. Now BJP has strong leaders while Congress has its difficult times in progress.
You are absolutely correct
हे राजन, आपने बनाया दीपस्तंभ,
है आश्चर्य, मुझे भी दीजिए इनाम।
Very good review and analysis. I also appreciate your candid acceptance that you never believed that BJP can come to form govt in the center.
Thank you SG for putting together this tightly packed information capsule !!! Very informative and kudos to the team.
Sir
I remember vividly the sordid saga and expose’ of late Bangaru Laxman on Tehelka .
No doubt late Bangaru Laxman has been dumped into the dustbin of BJP history .
Shekhar ji
An excellent analysis
Today SG sir looks like BJP supporter. He only talked highly of the party. BJP's history is so inspiring.
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
जय हिन्द जय भारत 🇮🇳🇮🇳💪

Why Defend your Kurta Color Shekhar ,it looks Good on You 👌
When you have to defend your kurta so that some won't think of it as supporting a ideology the viewers can understand that you can not be neutral.
Neutrality is a shame
No force on this earth can stop Modi
Really Flawless Analysis.... 👏🏻
I'am from Karnataka
What BJP done in Karnataka is criticized by EX- BJP CM
Even Centre told to focus on Development
We Kannadigas love Modi and Shah and cabinet members like Jaishankar, nitin Gadkari many more
But In state BJP is not doing well
Bjp better than khang
Very balanced and accurate analysis as usual 🙏
Thank you so much. Really good analysis ❤️.
Excellent analysis. The five points and the interview with late PM Vajpayeeji reveals a lot for an efficient organisation wheather political or otherwise.
Thanks.
I was thinking will Shekhar ji talk about BJP in today’s CTC . Nice
This was a history lesson for me!! Too good 👍👍
You forgot the name of Babu lal marandi, he is the very prominent leader who has left and came back
Very insightful. Thank you Shekhar ji
SIR PLEASE DO A CTC ON CRIMINAL PROCEDURE (IDENTIFIACTION) BILL 2022.
Great sekhar ji your telling way true story is so good
There is only one ideology of BJP and RSS nation first
Nicely put with sound journalistic perspective from Sekhar GuptaJi.
Bohot time hogya koi corruption ki khabar ni aai...that says a lot for bjp
Excellent, to the point analysis.
I aspire to analyse Indian politics like this when I grow older.
We want a CTC on Kalauli Violence , Harsha murder and islamist violence pan India...
Don't cry Sekhar ji !!
You are floating on tears !!😭😭😭
If Someone Says BJP win by doing Hindu-Muslim.
Me -- Then why BJP wins in Goa and All North East State.😤😤
Even in many Majority muslim district of Kashmir also.
Bjp is the Last hope of hindus
@@SM.28for bharat brother our motherland
Let them come to power......
India in 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice analysis but in your assessment no place for Modi, was he deliberately left out? Do you think he played no role from 2000 as Gujarat CM days till now as a 2nd term in BJP?
Technically party president is responsible for functioning of party. Hence cradit for entire team triumphs and failures come to party president. When it comes to BJP Modi and Shah are part of team not the head of party.
Very good analysis, with clarity
VOTE MODI AND SAVE NATION
I remeber my grandfather (in his late 80s) was in tears when BJP came to power in full majority in 2014. He had been a staunch supporter of the party since the time of the Ram Janmabhoomi movement and used to tell us that this is the only party that is made up of real 'Desh bhakts'. My grandmother always voted for the party. Both of them must have been very satisfied before they passed away under Modi Government.
Sadly they couldnt see the party win in my state (West Bengal) but I hope i will see the safron flag fly over the Kolkata Vidhan Sabha one day.
Jai Sri Ram🚩
Even the founder of BJP initially Jan Sangh was Shyama Prasad Mukherjee who fought for Abrogation of 370 & later died in kashmir was from WB. And BJP has always put the his agenda of abrogation of 370 at the forefront.
WB Has always been a stronghold of patriots,But For a few years, don't know what has happened to WB, people there are going in somewhere else's in different direction without their patriotism.
People there has to think that WB is land of patriot's like Tagore,Vivekanand,Mukherji, vidyasagar,R.R Mohan Roy,B.C Chatterji,R.K Pramhansh etc and many more.
@@upgred_u the problem is the Left minded bengali intelligensia of Bengal which was deeply brain washed by the communist mindset. There is a complete lack of original thought in the bengali intelligensia which has led to a complete mind drain in the bengali Hindu society. Thankfully this intelligensia is a shrinking breed nowadays and rural bengal is rising against this 'Bhadralok' elite.
@@theriam6281 This is what should be bro. Bengali people should Proud of their cultural, Religious and patriotism history, they should rethink about their historical devotion to India & in freedom they had from Vivekanand,Dyanand Saraswati,R.R Mohan Roy,Vidyasagar to Bose,Tagore,Chatterji and Mukherji etc. and many more.
This can only be possible if Bengali Youths & elders (who has seen or known about bengal patriotic devotion to India) can reclaim their historical religious patriotism by cultural events they have like Durga Puja,Diwas,Historical Dates etc.
Otherwise communist/leftists always try their best to destroy cultural & religious history of any region. Even momta is doing nothing in this favour. Taking only hindu votes and doing Appeasment of particular community.
Hoping Bengali will realise this & reclaim their history they known for.
Bcoz last hope is only BJP as like they are doing their best to connect people of that region to their root original cultural identity by modern principles in states like MP,UP,UK,HP,GJ etc
God bless you bro
In 1996 BJP lost no-confidence motion. However in 1998, they were cheated into losing no-confidence by 1 vote on a procedural mistake in the Lok Sabha. It was after the Sonia-Jayalalitha tea meeting brokered by Swamy (hence Swamy got NO plum position in the BJP after that).
SG, very good review of BJP’s journey of 42 years. Thank you
