Our pasts do not leave us, no matter how much we try to leave it. Though I am far away from Delhi for last 4 years, couldn't decline the request to participate in the debate of their results day live online from Varanasi.
Especially when the election results take away words from the mouth of election analysts, you need an equally unconventional election strategist to connect the missing threads.
It's not the question of how BJP swept Haryana beating 10 years anti-incumbuncy. The question is how the new found bhaichara of 35 castes out of the 36-biradari wrote the epitaph of the 4-decade long one-caste-dominance in Haryana power politics. Not only the Hudas or Lal-Chautalas, but also the BJP stalwarts from that single prominent caste like Om Prakash Dhankar and Captain Abhimanyu lost elections for consecutive second time.
