BJP & CONGRESS : FAKE HYPE & FALSE MODESTY

In 2004 BJP went ballastic with its shining India campaign which was fake hype - and paid the
price for it. Five years later , Congress has adopted its flip mode - that of false modesty; at first, it sang the Aam Aadmi tune while simultaneously giving tickets mostly to the children of erstwhile rulers and MP's ( in the name of promoting the young) ;and now ,while presenting a seemingly pro-poor budget it has retained ( and in some areas even increased ) the pro -corporate /industry tilt in the fine print. Both are dangerous trends with the sole aim of grabbing power by all means - in a sense, it is subversion of democracy.
