L.K. Advani, a creative strategist, has helped clear the field for a direct, vigorous and a most competitive campaign fight between Congress represented and led by its Vice President Rahul Gandhi and BJP campaign committee led by Narendra Modi.
Both parties will try to win a clear majority of the Indian electorate. In case neither one does, coalitions will be attempted to form the next government. It will be a clean fight in a long while.
Whichever party wins majority or leads a coalition government, if needed, economic, political, military, and foreign policy making will be easier and clearer for the following decade. Clarity of authority, direction and views by the electorate to their representatives in Parliament will be good for India.
Congress Party leadership reorganization on June 16 and expansion of Congress-led UPA governing Cabinet on June 17 confirms the above analysis.
It will be interesting to observe developments in policy and electioneering from now on to the state elections in November 2013 and national Parliamentary elections expected in May 2014. There is a possibility that the Parliamentary elections could be moved forward to November 2013 if the UPA government considers it beneficial to its re-election. In any case, it will be a very interesting period in Indian politics in the next few months.
