What if the real news isn’t the roar from Modi’s rally, but the leaks beneath the alliance’s façade? The Prime Minister’s fierce language — accusing the RJD of “taking the cm post at gunpoint” and predicting infighting — reveals a deeper strategy: portraying the opposition coalition as fragile, unstable and internally conflicted.
Let’s unpack three layers:
1. Alliance imbalance. The RJD, under Tejashwi Yadav, appears to be the anchor of the so-called “grand alliance.” Modi’s phrasing suggests the congress is the junior partner, perhaps even subservient. The rhetoric presumes a power grab by one partner, hinting at resentment from the other.
2. Pre-emptive narrative framing. By accusing the RJD now of “high-handedness”, Modi is shaping the story before any election outcomes — planting a seed of mistrust among voters that the alliance is already dysfunctional. The idea: even if they win, governance will be chaotic.
3. Psychological warfare for voters. Voters doubtful of the bjp get drawn in: you might think you’re voting for change, but are you really signing up for internal conflict, post-poll chaos and back-door tug-of-wars? The PM’s zing is: your trust in them might be betrayed, not by us but by their own partners.
The reference to “Operation Sindoor” and Namdar’s shock aren’t just about a military or strategic success but are used symbolically to show how the RJD is already taking bold, dominant moves — and the congress is reacting. It’s a clever way to frame the RJD as the party in motion and congress as the party reacting.
From a journalistic lens, this story is about the metapolitics of alliances — how coalitions are as much about power-games internally as they are about election battles externally. For those watching closely, the big question isn’t just “who wins?” but “how will the winners behave among themselves?” Because sometimes the biggest damage is self-inflicted.
