This is a general narration of the entire drama of the elections in the largest democracy of the world, India. Being a slugfest intended to decide who should sit in the seat of power, it attracts a lot of attention within and outside the country and ropes in a number of enthusiastic actors, big and small, and rakes up a lot of din and dust throwing up money and material in the process.
The general elections are quinquennial affair in India and every time they are held they create a lot of commotion and hype throughout the country. This time around, i.e., in 2019, this battle of ballots provided a colourful, intensely absorbing and juicy drama which was not witnessed on previous occasions, with some exceptions. There were many players in the arena, with an ardent desire to seize power including the incumbent prime minister Mr. Narendra Modi and others, like Mamata Banerjee, Mayawati, K. Chandrashekhar Rao, Sharad Pawar, Arvind Kejriwal, Deve Gowda and of course the Gandhi scion Rahul. The array of the political stalwarts, everyone having with an axe to grind and everyone exuding fierce instinct and confidence to fight the sworn enemy, viz., the Bharatiya Janata Party and its top leader and Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, made it a saga of grand proportions.
As every election brings some lessons, messages and some experiences to guide the political leaders, people and the scholars, this story of 2019 elections is a piece of brief political history that can guide to assess the past and prove to be an instrument of reality check to the political parties, its leaders and the people.
