They don't see their blind spots

If you speak against , they thrash you.

The reason as to why despite good intentions of some of its leaders, this party repeatedly fails to break the jinx of remaining a party 'out of power' ,is hidden in its inability to put curbs on its field supporters rehearsing 'power' in streets.

For most of us , social media is virtual 'free space' ; but they will reach your home to beat you 'in real' ; they will file police cases against you 'in real' if you speak ill of their Leader. They scare away any opposition.

That is the reason for their self applause on having 'majority' on social media, for few dare to speak against.

That is their blindfold which prevents them from seeing the pits they are falling into. That is the blind spot they look on others and don't see gnawing at themselves. That's why they will remain despised for majority of Indians despite few sparks of hope they manage to gather momentarily. 

Strenghthening democracy

Most of the efficiently running democracies in west and even in Japan and Israel have evolved to contain political leadership to policy casting and supervision. Administration, which is most blamed for its inefficiency here in India , is left to the professionals. That is the reason that the business and the diplomacy remain consistent in those countries despite changes of Govt. Here also some states like Tamil Nadu, despite visible political melodrama, have efficient and stable administrative system in place which is responsible for its consistent progress.

If those signs are visible at Center better it is. We need not see PM making comments at every event. We need not see him personally supervising policing . We require apolitical administrative systems in place to be a truly democratic progressive State. And I think , present Govt has delivered on this. It's bitter pill to swallow but we have seen that the political leadership had not resisted positive changes ( some time giving in to public demands) and in fact proposed and put in place significant measures which loosen the grip of political governance over the administration. I am quite sure that same could never have been achieved under any rule of intolerant , dictatorial unipolar cult controlled political parties.
