WHY AND HOW SECULAR AND LEFT LOST SO BADLY ?
There could be an endless debate on the rout of secular forces, although the reasons may not be far to seek. The secularists lost perhaps for not being secular enough. They did recite the secular mantras but their response to religious revivalism betrayed a mix of fear and opportunism. They displayed neither the will nor the skills needed to prevent the youth from taking the communalist path.They utterly failed to provide alternative to first time voters and other youth between in the age group of 20 to 30 years,who in the absence of any viable alternative were influenced by unprecedented media advertisement and opted almost en mass for supposed messiah of 21st century !
