View: Why PM Modi's third term is historic, and why Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar won't dump BJP?

Hindustan Times  

A day after an underwhelming electoral result for the BJP, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met his cabinet colleagues at Lok Kalyan Marg office and delivered the bottom line that the NDA was going to form the government at the Centre for the third time. Narendra Modi being felicitated by party leaders JP Nadda and Amit Shah, TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu, Bihar Chief Minister and JD leader Nitish Kumar and others during the NDA parliamentary party meeting at Samvidhan Sadan, in New Delhi, He basically told his ministers that unexpected results are part of the electoral game but the fundamental fact was that the BJP had more seats than the INDI alliance and that the NDA was forming the government for the third time. The world leaders like US President Joe Biden, Russian President Vladimir Putin, French President Emmanuel Macron, UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed and Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have also reacted enthusiastically due to their personal relations with PM Modi. Although the world leadership had regaled the return of PM Modi for the third time, it is also time for the BJP's top leadership to do serious introspection on what went wrong with the final result and what should be done to address it with Maharashtra and Haryana Assembly elections round the corner. Even though many in the media are trying to play on perceived fault-lines within the NDA and the number vulnerability of Modi 3.0, the fact is that both TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu and JD boss Nitish Kumar are virtually the same age as PM Modi and are looking towards establishing legacy in their own states.
