After the decisive defeat at the hustings, there is a realisation among the BJP's top leadership of the urgent need for an organisational overhaul.
The ‘Varun effect’, the mid-campaign projection of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi as a prime ministerial candidate, the negative campaign against Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, and the public spat between BJP leaders led voters to believe that the party was not focussed enough on addressing the needs of a democracy.
The challenge for the BJP now is to come up with a positive, progressive and inclusive agenda. Mere jingoism and lack of substance will no longer work.
What led to BJP's defeat? Does it face the stark possibility of losing relevance? Join us for a debate on The Big Fight.
