Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 548 Offending Too Many People

Roton knew the result of the upcoming general election. The People's Party was indeed re-elected, but there was a big problem.

That is, the People's Party holds less than half of the seats in parliament, and they can only form a coalition government with other allied parties.

This will be a huge blow to the power of the BJP.

In the first two elections, the People's Party had the final say because they held more than half of the seats and could completely ignore the opinions of other political parties.

The third victory seemed like a victory to Laoxian and the others, but in fact it was a complete defeat.

You know, before the election, they made bold statements and created hype in the news media.

The impression given is that they are sure to win, the current situation is very good, and the number of seats in the Federal Parliament will far exceed that of the previous two sessions.

Unexpectedly, the result was a loud slap in the face for them.

There are many reasons why this happened.

However, one thing is certain, that is, the old immortal has touched the interests of too many people during his years in power.

It can be said that except for the People's Party itself, the interests of other forces have basically suffered huge damage.

So, these people naturally began to join forces.

This includes some forces that are usually neutral, and they have begun to make things difficult for Laoxian and his men, either openly or secretly.

Another key point is that the epidemic has also dealt a heavy blow to the People's Party.

Actually, the People’s Party cannot be blamed for this.

If any other political party in India were to come to power and encounter such a catastrophic emergency, they would not do better than the BJP, and might even do worse.

But someone has to be held accountable for these things, and this government clearly cannot escape responsibility.

Apart from these, the People's Party has actually not accomplished anything in the two terms it has been in power.

Many of the policies promoted by Lao Xian were promoted very enthusiastically, but in fact, there was almost no follow-up.

His idea is good, but it is basically difficult to implement at the grassroots level.

After all, the Indian states have a great deal of autonomy, especially those controlled by opposition parties, which basically oppose the BJP.

Of course, although the old immortal is a hero, he is helpless in many things.

During his tenure, in order to secure votes and support for the BJP, he had no choice but to stir up religious conflicts within India.

Because the Hindu population is large, Laoxian supports Hinduism and suppresses Islam.

This is the only way to win more votes.

This result must have been good at the beginning. The BJP inspired Indian nationalism and made people a little fanatical.

But later, other political parties also discovered this benefit.

Then they followed suit and supported Hinduism in various ways.

If the BJP gives 10 rupees in benefits to the Hindu people in a place, then they will give more, 20 or 30 rupees.

In short, if your People's Party can do it, there is no reason why everyone else can't do it.

So everyone supports Hindus in attacking Islam because this will gain more support from Hindus.

This has led to serious conflicts between religions.

Hindus killing Muslims is becoming more and more frequent.

Of course, many of these things are suppressed locally and usually do not appear in the newspapers.

Islam is at a disadvantage, and with Hinduism dominating, their lives will be difficult.

Of course, some Islamic groups also launched counterattacks, and bloody conflicts broke out.

And these are what politicians want to see.

The more confrontational they are, the more support they will get from Hindus.

All these have weakened Lao Xian's policy of winning over Hindus and led to a drop in support, which is an important reason.

In addition, during the old immortal's reign, India's nominal GDP has seen tremendous growth, and its world ranking has become higher and higher, even surpassing its former suzerain, Britain.

Regardless of whether the data is falsified, the numbers are definitely higher, which has caused India's self-confidence to soar and make it feel like a superpower.

The Indian media also spreads various propaganda.

The People's Party naturally regards it as their political achievement, an achievement made under the rule of the old immortal.

But in fact, the proportion of India's manufacturing industry in GDP is getting lower and lower.

You know, after Lao Xian came to power, he proposed the Make in India plan, hoping to improve India's industrial manufacturing level.

However, after so many years, the manufacturing industry has actually declined. This is definitely a problem of the ruling party.

It can be said that the policies implemented by Laoxian during his years in office have basically failed.

However, there is one point that is worth mentioning.

That is, Laoxian often attends various ribbon-cutting activities.

A bridge was completed and the old immortal was present in person to cut the ribbon.

A subway line was opened, and Laoxian was present in person to cut the ribbon.

Anyone who pays attention to the news can see Lao Xian appearing at various ribbon-cutting events every now and then. He gives the impression that the Prime Minister is quite idle, almost being called the Ribbon-Cutting Immortal.

Actually, this really can’t be blamed on the old immortal.

Since the People's Party is unable to achieve political achievements in terms of policies, it can only use such means to show the people the achievements made under the leadership of the old immortal.

This is to increase the exposure of the old immortal. The purpose of creating various myths about the old immortal is to promote personal worship.

This is the only way to ensure the support rate of the People's Party.

Use these to cover up their failures in governance.

The severe inflation in recent years has made people very dissatisfied with the government.

Instigated by other opposition parties, many people abandoned the People's Party during the next general election.

Sharif relies entirely on his own analysis, which shows Sharif's sensitivity to politics.

However, Roton felt that Sharif and the others could only think this way now.

Because if the BJP really far surpasses the previous two elections in the next general election, it almost means that their Central Bureau of Investigation will not be able to withstand the strength of the BJP.

Therefore, at this time, whether it is to cheer up or encourage your own side, belittling the opponent is obviously a very important means.

We must boost morale on our side.

Regardless of whether it is a lie or not.

If morale is gone, it would be better to surrender directly and kneel down to the People's Party.

Sharif and his men were obviously unwilling to do this.

The CBI's years of power and privilege have made it impossible for them to accept such humiliation.

They will never give up until the end.

Besides, the appearance of Rotun is the greatest guarantee for their Central Bureau of Investigation.

"The policies of the PPP in the past two terms have offended too many people. I think in the next general election, others will definitely attack the PPP in various ways," Sharif added.

"That's quite possible."

"Even our interests have been greatly affected, and others are in even worse shape," someone said. "Some BJP members are truly too greedy. Before they came to power, they used to criticize the Congress Party. Now? They're even more shameless than those in the Congress Party."

"Who says it's not true? That guy Modi is almost being praised as a god by the BJP. How shameless."

"Who cares about face? Votes are the most real thing. I have to say, the BJP still has a set of tricks. These are very effective against those untouchables."

"I don't think anyone needs to worry too much," Sharif said with a slight smile. "Everyone is now familiar with the BJP's tactics. In the first two elections, the Congress and other opposition forces were probably stunned by the BJP's defeat, but now in the third election, they've somehow come to their senses. I've noticed that many political parties are beginning to imitate the BJP's tactics and instigate Hindus. It's actually not that difficult."

This kind of inter-religious conflict can easily explode.

After all, the conflict between Hinduism and Islam has always existed, and any slight instigation can lead to various tragedies.

Due to the majority of the Hindu population and the tacit support from politicians, Islam is often the victim.

Unfortunately, Islam is a minority in India, which means it has no say and can only become someone else's prey.

"I've noticed what you said."

"indeed so."

Although they are all retired, they still pay close attention to political affairs.

"In my opinion, as long as the Congress Party works harder, there should be a chance that the BJP will not get more than half of the seats," Sharif said.

“Isn’t this a bit exaggerated?”

"The BJP still has a huge advantage. The Congress Party's youngster is too unreliable. If it weren't for his good family background, he wouldn't even be able to handle an ordinary job. His sister is much better than him."

Largo's political talent is really average.

Especially when facing a hero like Laoxian, it is like a three-year-old child playing against a strong man. How can he win?
So Lago was beaten pretty badly.

Despite his Congress Party background and support, many people still look down on his abilities.

The Congress Party is now becoming increasingly weaker and is clearly unable to compete with the BJP.

How long can he hold the title of opposition leader?
"No matter what, the Congress Party is still the backbone of the opposition," Sharif said. "In fact, I'd say that this time, not only the opposition, but also the BJP's allies will be secretly trying to sabotage it. An overly powerful BJP isn't in their interests. Look at this government: almost all the key ministers and positions belong to the BJP. What cramped positions have been allocated to the allied parties? In the first term, the BJP pretended to reserve some good positions for its allies. If this trend continues, and the BJP really gets more than half the seats in the third term, I'm afraid these allies will be kicked out."

Sharif couldn't help but glance at Rotten when he said this.

Rotun noticed Sharif's gaze and roughly understood what Sharif meant.

This must be because they are thinking of Kanina and her group's People's Party.

Although the People's Party is much better this time than the first time, it is of no importance to the People's Party in terms of the number of MPs.

In other words, for Rotten's sake, Kanina and the others were assigned some positions. Of course, they were all deputies and had no real power.

The real power still lies in the hands of the People's Party.

If the People's Party wins the next general election, it will be difficult for the People's Party to even get these deputy positions.

Although these deputy positions do not have much real power, Kanina and others have done a lot of things using this position.

Everything we do is to gain more support from the people.

With a position in hand, many of his activities are endorsed by the government, which makes it easier to win people's hearts.
