They are BJP veterans. They have been practicing hindutva throughout their life. Now, all of a sudden, just for Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, how could they give up their ideology.
You cannot blame them. They have been behaving as usual. They couldn't change all of a sudden, just because Modi got the power. In fact, they have been tolerant for all these years. They thought that once they got the power, then they could easily establish their hindutva in action. But no action has been taken to satisfy their needs.
They have a huge list of needs. Narendra Modi is not paying any attention to their needs. Narendra Modi has time to meet all CEO around the world; but no time to talk to their parivar members.
Their position got worse with Narendra Modi in power. When Manmohan Singh was in power, they had the freedom to express their views. But not anymore. It is quite natural that they will revolt against Narendra Modi and Amit Shah.

Media have been using the word, tolerance and intolerance for the current crisis. Even the President Pranab Mukerjee said these words in his speech. It is totally and completely wrong.
For instance, let us take United States. Same-sex marriage is a social issue there. But they don't use the word, tolerance or intolerance. They are fighting for equal rights. Tolerance or intolerance do not apply there. It is their right; fundamental right.
In India, practicing any religion; or no religion; or no god; it is the fundamental rights of the citizen of India. There is no question of being tolerant or intolerant. When you interfere in other person fundamental rights, it is violation of law.
Even in family, husband may be fan of Dharmendra; wife may be fan of Amitabh. they don't say, one being tolerant to another.
As per the constitution, religion or no religion is the fundamental rights of the citizen. You don't need to be tolerant or intolerant towards fellow citizen. You have no rights to interfere the rights of other citizen.

Narendra Modi got himself into a deep mess. Narendra Modi had totally and completely changed from hidutva into vikaas. As an individual, Narendra Modi respects all religion. But that is not enough. Narendra Modi has to transform each individual in his party. That is a toughest job. It is highly impossible. They will never give up Ram or Sita, just for vikaas of India. Ram and Sita are more valuable than their own life.
You cannot play with these sensitive issues. You may not agree with them; but you could never underestimate them. It is not about their belief; it is their life; way of living. They don't believe about Rama and Krishna; they live with them.
Look at that lady, Jashodaben. Could you convince that lady with your logical arguments. Nothing works. It is the way, they live.

If you want to master the art of politics, then India is the best place.
Politics in America is like a High School education.
Politics in London is like bachelors degree education.
Politics in India is like masters and Ph.D
Politics is very well experimented in India. Mohandas Karamchand did a lot of experiments in politics. His whole life was an experiment. Then, Indira Gandhi did a lot. All experiments don't need to be good ones. Then all regional leaders have experimented a lot and they master the art.
In fact, regional leaders like Jayalalitha, Mamata and others; the party members open their mouth only with the blessings of their leader.
It is now obvious that neither Narendra Modi nor Amit Shah has any control over their party members.
In Congress, the party members; even after such a massive defeat; do respect and listen to Sonia.
But in BJP, party members are all on their own. As far as BJP concerned, Rajnath Singh was the only leader could effectively manage the party; other than Vajpayee and Advani.
Amit Shah is just micro-management. It is the usual desi-indian style. Any indian desi could easily master the art of micro-management.
Amit Shah was conveniently ignoring the veterans and trying to bring-in new faces. Naturally, these veterans will revolt. Satrughan Sinha, what was the problem in declaring as the Chief Minister candidate? Satrughan Sinha would be the MGR or NTR of Bihar.

Narendra Modi hired corporate marketing consultants for his election. That was a political blunder. Corporate consultants have no idea about politics in general and certainly they are ignorant of Indian politics.
In India, it is not about winning an election; it is all about managing to stay there in Delhi. In the recent years, Manmohan Singh mastered the art. Staying there for ten years is highly impossible one. But Manmohan Singh did mange to swim with those sharks without much trouble.
Cho Ramasamy is the best person for Indian politics; but Cho developed friendship with Modi and couldn't play the role of Krishna. Playing the role of Krishna is the most challenging one. Certainly, Arun Jaitley doesn't fit to play that role.
__________________________________________
Had Cho Ramasamy played the role of Krishna with greater responsibility then this how it would have gone.
MGR way is still the best way of coming out of the parent organization. Before election, in the BJP national convention, somehow make Advani as the Prime Ministerial candidate and let Modi come out of BJP in protest.
Start a new political party with Amit Shah as the head. Let the new party be, BVP.
BVP - Bharatiya Vikaas Party.
Total freedom from sangh parivar; free from strong ideology like hidutva.
Then, all those slogans would work; Abhi baar, Modi sarkar. Aachche Din.
Managing a corporation is different from managing a country with complex political burden.
It's time for a Chai pe charcha with all those BJP veterans. Modi can not ignore them any longer. Modi has to break his silence and talk to his party family members. BJP veterans have been tolerant with Modi and Shah for a long time. It's time for the veterans to revolt against Modi and Shah.
