Kolkata: Elections are crystal-ball-gazing times. Predicting how voters will exercise their choice is tricky, more so when the topography of politics is changing from a tradition of conscious and consensually managed secular competition to polarisation along communally divided identities.Â
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has succeeded in installing itself as the pivot in all conversations, which going by the reputation of West Bengal as highly politically conscious, could be at least once every day, at home, at work, travelling or shopping. In building a perception about its chances of winning the 2021 state assembly elections, the BJP has made the act of choosing an almost absolutely predictable event, converting the process into a confirmation of what the so-called âeveryoneâ knows.
