The emergence of a coalition of opposition parties called 'INDIA' against BJP is conducive to strengthening democracy. In the discussion held in Mumbai for two days, the opposition group 'INDIA' has decided to forget the difference of opinion and move forward without wasting time to bring down the central government led by Modi. For this, a 14-member coordination committee and four sub-committees were selected. It was agreed in the meeting to discuss the seat distribution at the state level as soon as possible and take a decision. Three resolutions were passed in the meeting namely to complete the seat allocation at the state level, to hold public meetings across the country and to devise a media strategy to propagate the slogan 'Judega Bharat, Jeetega INDIA'. With two more parties from Maharashtra joining the opposition front, the number of allies has gone up to 30. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said that the parties representing 60 percent of the country's people are with 'INDIA' and it is beyond BJP's reach to win the next Lok Sabha elections.

The 'INDIA' front is making moves to field general candidates against BJP in at least 440 seats in the elections. General candidates will be fielded in states where BJP is the ruling party or the main opposition. Kerala, Punjab, Delhi and Bengal are unlikely to have general candidates. BJP leadership has also been surprised that even those who were thought to be impossible to unite have decided to stand together. It can also be assumed that the opposition coalition has made the ruling party realize that it is not possible to win the election just by promoting the development of India. When people's lives are out of bounds and made miserable by rising prices, they turn against the ruling party, as has been the case in elections so far. People's lives become difficult when the prices of goods and fuel increase and job opportunities decrease. In such a situation, no matter how many developmental achievements are mentioned, people will turn their ears away from it. The reduction in the price of domestic gas by Rs 200 may be an indication that the BJP has started to understand this. A reduction in the price of petrol and diesel can also be expected in the wake of the arrival of the 'INDIA' front. In any case, a strong opposition is expected to help the growth and rise of democracy.

Although Congress is the largest party in the opposition coalition, most of the opposition parties will not agree to project their leader Rahul Gandhi as the head of the opposition front. Modi is standing like a wild tusker on one side so the opposition is likely to fall into the trap of deflecting all criticism against Modi alone. It has already backfired twice. What the people want is details of what the opposition will do to improve people's lives if they come to power. Therefore, the opposition front should give more importance to showing what they are going to do for the people, and not in criticizing Modi. In any case, the 'INDIA' front has ensured that the next Lok Sabha elections will turn out to be a huge battle.
