People are waiting to teach defectors a lesson

Almost all have lost their seats miserably  in  re-election , except those with personal clout .The second batch has still to test the turbulent waters of people's anger. Some others who pride themselves  sporting of BJP label on their lapels have criminal background to defend, besides use of freebies, muscle power and cultivation of  migrant vote  banks through gross irregularities .The rise of local outfit is in frustration to teach the scoundrels  a lesson and lack of  alternative, not because they subscribe to party ideology. BJP  all over India is carrying on vociferous,  malicious campaigns, vandalising of religious places harassment and unprecedented killings of members of minorities in history .The polarisation process on religion,   hatred , indifference and intolerance is no attraction for those  believing in secular,   democratic freedom. It is a myth  to allege popularity of BJP when a volcano of disappointment is waiting to explode.
