The BJP juggernaut has succeeded in crushing one more opposition party, the NCP by getting a significant number of MLAs led by rebel Ajit Pawar to defect. Post the merger (murder to be precise) of course Ajit made the right noises about India marching ahead under Modi the visionary leader. It was only a week ago that Modi had accused the NCP of perpetrating a scam of Rs70,000 crores. It is to be mentioned that half the defectors had the ED, the CBI and the IT on their tails for alleged crimes committed when they were under the ruling dispensation in Maharashtra. Now of course with the jumbo BJP laundromat at work, the defectors will emerge squeaky clean.With Udhav and Sharad Pawar successfully emasculated there is almost no sign of the Maha Vikas Aghadi anymore. It will be smooth sailing for the BJP in Maharashtra, their next aim would be to wrest control of Bombay Municipal Corporation to finance future defections / strategic alliances and elections. The @ Rs 37,000 crore kitty of the Corporation will surely come in handy for such nefarious deeds.
