 A Symphony of Irony: Examining the BJP's Political Acrobatics

AAP files ED complaint against BJP leaders for 'distributing cash to voters

The BJP and its supporters have truly mastered the skill of throwing around baseless accusations and expecting everyone to believe them without question. Who needs evidence when blind faith and loud claims work just as well? Their genius strategy includes paying people to make up stories about opposition leaders. The best part? When these very people suddenly find their conscience—or their "Ram"—and admit they were paid to lie. It’s like a plot twist in a daily soap opera, except no one’s surprised anymore.

Take their long-standing obsession with attacking the Congress government under Manmohan Singh. Led by the ever-persistent Anna Hazare, who had RSS backing, they accused the UPA of corruption with great fanfare. And yet, after nearly 11 years of BJP rule, those claims are still gathering dust, unproven. Meanwhile, the BJP’s own corruption scandals are not only piling up but have been confirmed, with the Supreme Court doing a brilliant job of looking the other way. The idea of a free and fair judiciary seems to have been neatly packed away in the archives.

Of course, the BJP doesn’t stop at making accusations. Why would they when they can also imprison their political rivals without proof? Figures like Satinder Jain, Maneesh, Kejriwal, and Sanjay have been thrown into jail for months or even years without any solid evidence against them. It’s less about justice and more about silencing critics. At the same time, BJP leaders and their friends roam around freely, throwing accusations like confetti at a wedding. And then there’s Adani—their favorite businessman—whose questionable actions are ignored while the government bends over backward to protect him. This bromance deserves its own chapter in the history of crony capitalism.

Let’s not forget how the BJP has weaponized religion to distract people from its failures. Chanting slogans like Jai Ram and Jai Hanuman, they’ve convinced many to oppose policies that actually help them. Somehow, basic government services funded by taxpayers are mocked as "freebies," unless, of course, BJP leaders are handing out cash before elections. Then it’s suddenly patriotic.

Speaking of elections, the upcoming polls in Delhi are already a shining example of the BJP’s creative tactics. Videos of their leaders openly handing out cash to women in exchange for votes are circulating like wildfire. These leaders, caught red-handed, don’t even bother denying it. And where are the Election Commission, IT department, and ED? Probably on a long holiday, as they seem completely uninterested in these blatant violations. Or maybe they’re too busy chasing opposition leaders over imaginary charges. After all, it’s their favorite sport.

When Kejriwal warned that the BJP was planning to arrest Madam Atishi, the Chief Minister-in-waiting for Delhi, and raid AAP leaders’ homes to distract voters, it hardly came as a shock. These agencies have already made it their full-time job to harass AAP leaders. Evidence? That’s an afterthought. The goal isn’t justice but to crush any competition and keep the focus on manufactured corruption stories.

And then there’s the matter of Gujarat, the BJP’s golden state. Taxpayer money from across the country seems to magically flow there, while other states are left struggling for basic funding. Senior BJP leaders like Rajnath Singh stay conveniently silent about this obvious bias. Maybe they’re practicing the ancient art of selective outrage, or perhaps they’ve just decided it’s safer not to rock the boat.

This paints a pretty grim picture for democracy. Elections, once a proud part of India’s democratic tradition, have turned into a rigged game where lies, manipulation, and bribery are seen as smart strategy. Meanwhile, the opposition continues to hope that logic and peaceful campaigning will somehow work against the BJP’s dirty tricks. Newsflash: it won’t.

It’s time for the opposition to stop playing by outdated rules and start fighting back. The BJP isn’t just bending the rules—they’ve rewritten them to make sure they always win. Holding on to ideals is great, but when your opponent thrives on lies and bullying, you need more than wishful thinking. Democracy isn’t something you can save by just hoping for the best. It needs action and accountability.

This isn’t about giving up on principles—it’s about defending them. If citizens don’t demand leadership that values justice over drama and integrity over manipulation, the very idea of democracy is at risk. It’s time for everyone to wake up and hold their leaders accountable. Only then can India’s democracy survive and thrive.
