Tiger by the tail

Modi ,the "Gujarat Mogul " had always been a clear outsider to both to the inner coterie of RSS and on the high table of the BJP.The prolonged inability of the Sangh Parivar to manage dissension within the party had propelled Modi  to his present pre eminence,despite  the widely held apprehensions on his autocratic dispensation.Should BJP by itself scores 230 plus ,RSS could perhaps grab the credit and claim some hold on Modi the PM. But a lesser performance , which appears to be a much greater possibility,will enable Modi to show case his political acumen in drumming up and sustaining a coalition. That would  show up Modi  in powerful light as an independent achiever.With governance as the watchword the Modi administration may not be amenable to the hindutva  line that had been the lifeblood of the Parivar. It is not that this scenario was not anticipated by both the RSS and the BJP, but the desperation of a decade without power has brushed aside their every other consideration ,individually or  as a collective.
