NaMo’s overreaching ambitions seem to have lost a little ground and thus he is busy with establishing contact with those who are working on the ground. His foot soldiers have crossed the paths of several satraps. Now NaMo is contacting each one of them directly and inviting them to join him. For instance, the BJP’s Varun Gandhi was seen at none of NaMo’s public rallies, but now Varun is organising a big rally for Modi in Kolkata on February 8, and he will obviously praise Modi to the skies and write a new story of friendship. But then nothing is permanent in politics – neither friendship nor animosity.
