Opposition's alliance against Modi is old copy with new cover

The biggest problem of the Congress is the success and stability of the first non-Congress government under the leadership of PM Modi.

As the country is heading towards the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the political arena is witnessing a futile exercise by some Opposition political parties who claim that they are coming together to dethrone the Narendra Modi government at the Centre. These political parties are in collusion, contradiction, confusion, conflict to compete with the BJP. They say that

“none of us has the weight to defeat Narendra Modi alone, so we are coming together”. This bundle of alliance knows very well that it cannot defeat Prime Minister Modi, irrespective of the fact whether they fight alone or form an alliance. However, carrying forward the commotion of coalition is their compulsion.

The Congress and some other Opposition parties were under the same delusion in 2018 also, after the Congress’ good performance in the Assembly elections in Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka. At that time also, some political proprietors were doing a countdown of the Modi Magic, but the Arithmetic of Modi’s success spoiled the Mathematics of the Modi opponents. The public gave a bumper mandate to Modi, as the BJP won 303 seats in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. That’s why their current attempt to forge an ideology-less and directionless alliance against Modi is nothing but an “old copy with a new cover”.
