The strategists of the BJP believe that the mission titled 'Congress Mukt Bharat' has almost been implemented, and the goal of the Lotus brigade is to target other regional parties.
In the 2014 and 2019 elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party, which prevented the Congress from securing even ten percent of the seats in the Lok Sabha, has devised plans to further diminish the Congress in the 2024 elections. Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself announced in the Lok Sabha that Congress will not secure even 40 seats this time.
BJP leaders feel that if the Congress is restricted to 40-50 seats again, there will be no one left in the party, and Rahul Gandhi will have to step down.
However, leaders of the party argue that wherever they directly confront the Congress, the BJP will have the upper hand, and as the BJP succeeds, the percentage of Congress votes will continue to decline.
BJP leaders have realized that the Congress has lost the ability to compete equally with the BJP at the all-India level, and there is no prospect for the Congress in that scenario in the future.
After weakening the Congress at the national level, the BJP has begun to undermine it at the state level. Recently, the BJP has defeated the Congress in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, leaving the party in only three states. By portraying the Congress party as the weakest, the stage is set for the BJP to seize the remaining votes from the Congress.
However, if the Congress has the support of other regional parties, the party will rise. Therefore, while aiming to eliminate the Congress on the one hand, the BJP hopes to eradicate the regional parties in the second phase. This second phase has already commenced.
The BJP has divided Shiv Sena and Nationalist Congress Party.
Numerous cases are being filed against JMM and Aam Aadmi Party. JMM leader and Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren was imprisoned.
BJP attracted Janata Dal (U) in Bihar, Rashtriya Lok Dal in UP and JD(S) in Karnataka to its side, weakening the Congress and the India alliance.
