“The Prime Minister Will Be the Most Uncomfortable Person in the New Lok Sabha”

"The Prime Minister will be the most uncomfortable person in the new Lok Sabha" because his personality will prevent him adapting to the new political situation: Suhas Palshikar, Chief Editor, Studies in Indian Politics
...........................................
One of our most astute political commentators says “The Prime Minister will be the most uncomfortable person in the new Lok Sabha” because Mr. Modi insists that he has won a mandate for a third term when, in fact, he has lost his majority and his government cannot survive without support from allies. Prof. Suhas Palshikar says the Prime Minister knows this but his personality will prevent him adapting to the new political situation he finds himself in. This, Prof. Palshikar says, will lead to tension and awkwardness which will show in the Prime Minister’s behaviour, manner and speech but also in the way his government conducts itself and, possibly, is perceived.
In a 27-minute interview, recorded on the day the new Speaker is elected, Prof. Palshikar, Chief Editor of Studies in Indian Politics and Co-Director of the Lokniti Programme on Comparative Democracy, spoke of the tensions, acrimony and polarization that is likely to characterize the 18th Lok Sabha. He said: “There will be more direct confrontation between the main ruling party and the opposition because the BJP would be licking its wounds, seeking opportunities to de-legitimize the Opposition and the Opposition would be eager to flex its muscles because of its belief that the people have rejected the BJP.”
In these circumstances, Prof. Palshikar does not believe there will be any substantive change between the Modi government’s behaviour during the last 10 years and the next five. He says: “The Modi regime will soon return to its core features - weaponization of state power to suppress dissent, coupled with intolerance of routine opposition, de-legitimization of all institutions through their political capture and a well-defined majoritarian politics that encourages the societal sphere to stigmatize the minorities.”
In the interview to The Wire, Prof. Palshikar identified four fault-lines that could become potential flashpoints for the government. They are the handling of unemployment and the frustrations of youth, Centre-State relations, the issue of a caste census and reservations and vigilante adventurism against Muslims whilst the state simply behaves like a passive onlooker.
I won’t go further because I think you should hear Prof. Palshikar’s insightful and enlightening analysis yourself. As the 18th Lok Sabha begins its term, with the election of the new Speaker today, Prof. Palshikar’s interview sheds a very revealing light on how this Lok Sabha will function, the BJP’s relations with the Opposition as well as with its own key allies, the dilemma and constraints the Prime Minister will face, both from his reduced majority and also because he is, in a real sense, a prisoner of his personality.
This is a particularly insightful and revealing interview but delivered in simple, easy-to-understand language and I am confident it will be of great interest to anyone who wants to understand what the next five years of Parliament are likely to be like.

    Modi has a Stooge Om Birla to hide his discomfort. So whatever Palshikar says in textual political view, I don't see Modi anyway uncomfortable. He will continue his dictatorial attitude, disregard opposition, very difficult for a matured parliamentary democracy. India is now in a very uncomfortable stage internally and globally. Indians have lost the election due to the arithmetic stupidity of our electoral democracy. India has lost to an illiterate dictator leading a fascist BJP and a couple of mercurial regional parties. It is a shame as even in an ECI rigged election 20 crore Indians have erred on behalf of 140 crore Indians. God save us. Jai Hind 🙏🇮🇳

Every key institution in India that is meant to work for the people has been reduced to a mockery and groomed to be a tail wagging lapdog of the PM and his lackeys. With the current crop of 5-star dunces back in power Indians have lost out majorly. You know what happens when a clown moves into a palace; unfortunately, it is not going to be funny.

    Excellent choice of person to interview. Very thoughtful responses. Modi is a narcissist. He will never see the reality staring him in the face. He should be uncomfortable- anyone else would be. But Modi won’t be - he’ll just charge in like an angry bull. The ability to change with circumstances is a sign of intelligence. That is the last thing you can accuse Mr. Modi of. He’s clever, manipulative, cunning but not intelligent nor wise. The BJP’s hubris will make them over-reach. It’s the opposition which has to stay united & take advantage of any opportunity offered to them. Excellent interview. Thanks-Karan

    Modi, till now, has not been averse to failure. He was Chief Minister of Gujarat for 12 years and Prime Minister for 10 years. He has always enjoyed the pleasures of position, power, luxurious life and enjoying foreign tours & benefits. Modi has refrained from facing any controversial incidents (Chinese encroachments, Mizoram riots, natural disasters/riots in any state and many more). Courage and skill are necessary to face such dilemmas. Now a person with such a mindset does not even imagine failure. Moreover, the memories of big scandals and cruel revenge on opponents for so many years make him more distressed and he is struggling to face the present situation. Because of that, his confused state is evident from talking about everything that seems to be untrue.

    With due respect to Palshikar sir, Modi will remain what he has bn in last 10 years..with his man Om Birla as speaker again, he wud leave parliament and the Opposition worthless, outside parliament, he wud continue his mangalsutra, musalmaan, bhains and toti chori. Afterall, these hv briught him back as PM, a misfortune though for our democracy.

    @@marthaudom6543 Rahul has a long way to go. But we citizens are capable of bringing this regime into its knees. The difference between Rahul and Modi is too wide to bridge. Rahul is highly educated, passive, caring Individual yet to master the political dynamics of the heavily illiterate huge population of the country. On the other hand Modi-Shah, the two illiterates, have mastered the art of fooling and dividing people even while they were at the helm in Gujarat. The illicit money they have amassed to fund their agenda is far beyond imagination. Moreover like the cases in terrorist countries of Syria, Pakistan and North Korea, they have indoctrinated millions of Indians in support of their agenda. The next generations will suffer if they are allowed to ruin our nation further. We citizens who believe that they have social literacy have to work together to fight this menace. The regional parties will really have to tune down their local ambitions and work closely as India Gadbandhan in the interest of the nation. I am not sure how much Mamta and Arvind will do this.

    BJP is viewed as a North Indian - Upper caste - Hindi speaking party who cannot understand the regional equations and diversity. Therefore do not qualify to rule. This is the general image of BJP in Southern India. This can and has to change. People don't see Modi with same reverence as they used to with Vajpayee ji and Manmohan ji. Atal ji was a stalwart leader and inspired trust and respect. Modi is seen as an electioneer like marketeer, profiteer and a maverick politician who cannot be trusted with votes. All exuberance, rhetorics and flurry of promises. He lacks dignity and perhaps good education. Modi = Bluff master; is the growing perception. People are rejecting Modi - Shah type dishonest rhetorical WAVE Politics. DMK challenged BJP openly with anti hindutva- Sanatana - Hindu rhetorics. They routed BJP in TN. BJP TN= 0. Modi likewise pitched aggressively with Infiltrators- NO Reservation rhetoric while riding on Ram Mandir. He lost badly in BJP stronghold. Ayodhya was the icing on the cake. Modi barely saved himself in Banaras. See the contrast between DMK and BJP. Similar approaches yeilding opposite results. Why? What is wrong with BJP? While opposition seemed to learn fast, BJP is lagging. Loss is attributable to poor leadership and lack of sensitivity to grasp shifting ground realities. BJP double engine betrayed Karnataka. Modi-Shah treated the massive mandate they recd as business opportunity to expand business for Gujarat brands, BOB and Amul. Succeeded in the former and caught red handed in later. Shame but not ashamed. Unscrupulous mindset and arrogance on the part of top leadership is making BJP to lose elections in south and perhaps in north India also. Instead of capitalising on many opportunities that have come in the BJP way and growing voter base in the South, BJP is wasting them everytime. Look how Shah misbaved with Tamilisai in public. Amit Shah could be seen sitting next to the Seers in Karnataka in disrespectful posture. Modi downplaying CM Siddharamaiah on the stage. There are many such clips that are shown regularly in the media. How are they supposed to be the leaders of Hindus when they lack in qualities to be expected from a good Hindu. They better abandon Hindu credentials and just be politicians. In politics also, the leadership has been coming short. BJP used Yogi ji and Biswa Sarma during 2023 Karnataka state election campaign and lost badly. These are the leaders from laggard & lawless states. Anti incumbency was a joke after barely ruling for 3 years using defected MLAs. Sr BJP leaders from the state are hardly ever used for election campaign in Karnataka. This time, 2024, BJP used Annamala who is now sniffing opportunity from Karnataka. Already there is one stateless, constituencyless and useless FM, Mrs Nirmala Sitaraman. Right etiquettes, respect and dignity pay off in enhancing public perception. Leaders must educate themselves to learn and internalise diverse cultures, sensibilities of different regions. They must possess good understanding of federalism. Not treat common voter as commodity which can be bought through last minute Road Shows by Modi with showering of petals on him. Flagging off of Vande Bharat is still cheap. BJP leadership continues to misread people's support. It is Lose - Lose scenario. Congress is partially successful in winning the trust of the voters in south despite several set backs from time to time. Rajiv Gandhi payed for his arrogance in Karnataka and Andhra where he removed the CMs arbitrarily. Clearly with Modi at the helm BJP looks certain to lose ground. They are already looking like spent force. They need to renew very quickly. It is possible to consolidate in south with lots of research and localisation. That is a different model from the kind that BJP has set for itself.

    Karan should read this from a Former IPS Officer which says:-* I was so upbeat when Shashi Tharoor came into politics in 2009. I still remember talking to so many of my NRI friends on how the politics of India will change for better with highly accomplished people and intelligent people like him joining politics. Then by 2013, I was disillusioned with congress and felt Anna Hazare supported by IITian Kejriwal, IPS Kiran Bedi, great actor Aamir Khan will usher in a new change in India. I even donated to India against corruption, went to Ramlila maidaan to shout slogans *Now if I look back at it, the only thing I can do is laugh at myself. But I am happy that I realised the biggest flaw in my thinking. The reason we support people like Shashi Tharoor or a Kejriwal is they are well educated. We are brainwashed from childhood that education is equal to goodness*. *NO, IT IS NOT*. *Chidambaram is MBA from Harvard and we all know what he did. Mani Shankar Aiyar is from Cambridge - We all know what kind of rubbish he speaks. Kapil Sibal is Harvard Law graduate and all he does is write mercy petitions for terrorists*. *It is not that congress didn’t have highly educated people in the party. There were lots of them but they were all crooks. And a highly educated crook is even more dangerous as he can dupe you in even more innovative ways*. Everyone from *Islamic invaders to Britishers* were supported by *highly educated and intelligent* Indians. Yes, you need them to lord over the country? So *the rulers of India cultivated a group of crooks who were well read to rule over us and keep us poor. And Chachaji and his family also continued this trend and cultivated a group of highly educated crooks to rule India. Today we call this group as Lootyens as they stay in an area called Lutyens in Delhi and loot us.* *What is the change that BJP and Modi brought into politics?* *It made jokers like me realise that IVY LEAGUE DEGREES doesn’t make you a patriot, inculcate honesty or bring goodness.* *But people who cultivate character, personality on the basis of ethos of Culture and civilisation of India have patriotism and goodness in them*. *Do this experiment if you don’t believe me:* *You go into any random RSS Shaka in any part of the country and any time in the year*. *And see what they teach those students - Patriotism, Service, Goodness, Honesty and Simplicity.* *It is done every day and all throughout the year.* *Tell me which Ivy League Univ, IIT, IIM, St Stephens, Doon school or any school where you pay lakhs of rupees as fees teach it?* *I have been to world’s top Universities, have 6 degrees but no where my education taught me patriotism or goodness*. *It is my dad who taught me and the books I read written by Swami Vivekananda or the man I idolise Shaheed Bhagat Singh who did this.* *RSS shakhas do it for all the Sangh goers everyday. Hence people like Modi are so patriotic and honest. I don’t care if he went to school or he has MA or not.* *A person who reads Swami Vivekanand or goes to a RSS Shaka is any day better than a crook with IIT or Harvard degree.* *Yes that is what we need to realise.* *Believe in your own ethos or the goodness of your own country. You will any day be better than believing in those degrees*.

Moreover , during the last 10 years, the regime has already achieved a control through its ideological manpower infiltration in Government institutions. This would help it pursue its own way of functioning. But there's a hope in the RSS against any such move. Let's hope that it will act in such eventuality more maturely and tame the Government if it falters .
