The behemoth among political parties right now is undoubtedly BJP which has secured handsome majority, ever achieved by any single party in last thirty years on national level. The manner in which BJP is bulldozing other parties is clearly evident with Congress not even gaining major opposition status.
Recently Mulayam Singh Yadav, Nitish Kumar
Recently Mulayam Singh Yadav, Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad announced merger of their parties to form Janatha parivar, which gives them enough ammo to fight BJP combinedly using OBC and dalit platform. This consolidation marks a new phase in Indian politics for the first time after 1989 when regional parties started calling shots.
Now it is the turn of Congress, the grand old party. It is an open fact that many regional parties in India today and their bosses were all from Congress who were suffocated within the party when they emerged as regional satraps. Sharad Pawar’s NCP, Jagan’s YSRCP, Mamatha’s Trinamool Congress are few examples.
Today, senior leaders of Congress party in Delhi have called icon all such leaders who left Congress to comeback to Congress fold, called Congress parivar. Sharad Pawar has already supported this move. The appeal has now come to the ears of Jagan and Mamatha. Sources say Congress is ready to accord royal welcome to Jagan if he stages a comeback!
