Picture of Manohar Parragar Taking a saving dinner consisting of ‘Tambdi Bhaji’ with Rotis in a farmer’s house in the country’s countryside is a permanently engraved image in the Karyakartas BJP senior memory that has accompanied the opposition leader at that time as long as Sampar Abhiyan’s suit in front of the 2012 assembly poll .
Determined to get back to the office and in a conscious attempt at image makeover, Parrikar started training a massive public outreach, a practice that led his popularity to soar and take an absolute majority of BJP in 2012, a poll of 14-for the first time.
A decade later, the time has come a full circle.
This is the first time BJP fought in the election without parrocar by his side to plan his battle strategy, rancai election blueprint, and supervise the war room.
When the Pramod-LED government searches for people’s mandates for another period, BJP goes to the poll with the promise of good governance and the development traced quickly.
Facing the trust deficit, BJP’s advantage lies in the strength of reduced Congress and its inability to take advantage of its shortcomings.
In 2012, Parragar placed his social engineering skills by training a large number of Catholic candidates and the strategy worked for BJP because all six Catholic candidates emerged in the election.
Even though BJP always remains a pariah for Salcete, which has been steadily remained loyal to Congress, the Patrikar strategy supports independent Catholic candidates in several electoral districts – then comes to be called the Salcete-producing mission of some success in 2012.
“The idea works at the time it was when people believed in Parragar.
“But BJP must face flak in 2017 because of his inability to fulfill the promises made in the 2012 poll.
Despite Parragar, which at that time the Minister of Defense led the campaign from the front, hatred grew faster than expected and Congress, seen as a decent alternative, utilizing it into the biggest party with 17 seats.
Although BJP only has 13 seats, the MLAS coalition says their trust in Parragar expanded support to him, and not a party, to form the next government.
Parrocar dexterity in forging alliances and its commitment to the extraordinary Dharma coalition.
When BJP went to the election in the coalition with MGP in 2012, Parragar shot the MGP legislator into his cabinet despite having its own majority, only to respect the Dharma coalition.
In front of the house for BJP, the departure of the Parragar has led to the emergence of several power centers in the party and the government.
The absence of an integrated command has resulted in the party leadership of the party strictly monitoring party affairs in the state.
In addition to former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnivis overseeing the state unit, BJP National Secretary General (Organization) B Santosh has taken personal interests not to leave stones that are missed to fight polls with strategic planning.
However, it must be seen how BJP’s leadership is going through uncomfortable waters.
With “multiple machines” that work overtime in obtaining candidates that can be won and fragmented opposition, BJP can find itself in a profitable position in the post-parrocar era.
