Analysis: The Strategic Imperative for the BJP in Kerala
The central problem identified for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in a politically complex state like Kerala is not a lack of intent, but a lack of strategic consistency. The party’s campaign and organizational efforts are perceived as sporadic, characterized by intense bursts of activity followed by significant “breaks.” This intermittent engagement model is counterproductive, as it effectively concedes ground and allows political momentum to dissipate, causing the party to “lead backwards.”
In a highly politicized environment like Kerala, where political discourse is a 24/7 affair, visibility and persistence are paramount. When a party’s machinery goes quiet, it loses its place in the public narrative. This allows established competitors—such as the entrenched, “open-scheduled” political blocs like the Congress-led UDF and the CPI(M)-led LDF (which your text may be generally referring to)—to reclaim the agenda and solidify their base.
To reverse this trend and restore what you term “powerful dynamics,” a fundamental operational shift is required. The BJP’s “technology”—its entire organizational infrastructure, from grassroots cadre management and digital outreach to data analytics and media strategy—must adopt a relentless, high-energy, “always-on” approach. This machine needs to work “so hard, so energetic,” transforming from a reactive, election-cycle entity into a proactive, constant political force that continually sets the terms of the debate.
The ultimate objective of this revitalized, high-tempo strategy is to directly confront and “break away” the entrenched influence of these established parties. Your analysis frames these competing political groups as “cancerous manifestations,” suggesting they are deeply and harmfully embedded in the state’s political structure.
Therefore, the conclusion is that only a massive and sustained “amount of hard work” can be effective. This effort must be powerful enough to “break their eyes”—to shatter their public focus and disrupt their traditional hold on various voter segments. This is presented as the only viable path to “quit” or neutralize the deep-rooted influence of these opposing factions and establish the BJP as a truly dominant force in Kerala’s political landscape.
