Delhi Elections Impact on BJP

Delhi Elections loss for BJP is proving positive for NDA Allies since they have more bargaining power. If BJP had allowed Shiv Sena Power as Cong has allowed, BJP would not have lost a state. Adopting the Moral Right has not yielded any success to BJP either in 2013 in Delhi or in recent Ktka elections. BJO could have also won Madhya Pradesh if it had brought in the smaller parties into its fold who held the seats.
Delhi Election is like Chattisgarh election, not able to understand the voters needs. Chattisgarh loss came because 15 yrs incumbency had built in the need to change but it wasnt recognized especially in the maoist areas.
In 1993 when Delhi got its elections back, BJP won but changed three chief ministers giving rise to Shiela Dixit's reign for 15 years followed then by AAP reign. In 2013, BJP had 32 members. It could have waited for other party to crack but it gave up all its gains for a united Cong-AAP.
So in all, BJP had 26 years to build a leader but it couldnt build a leader which is not good for the fact remains that BJP held the MCD for four consecutive terms. It is as if the Election has been given up for someone else. Cong has aided AAP by transferring all its votes to AAP. It did the same in 2015 and has done the same now.
BJP will still win Delhi Lok Sabha elections because Modi will still remain strong but BJP needs to provide leades in all states decisively and not make RSS background a criteria which is becoming a problem when selecting the right candidates. BJP can take in YSR party into NDA and bolster its support base for next five years. It is imperative for AIADMK to win Tamilnadu but so far much hasnt been witnessed in terms of building a party agenda by BJP face in Tamilnadu-Rajanikanth.
