What happened on May 16th 2014, can be described in just one word – MODI-fication. This was for the first time in the history of Indian elections that a Parliamentary election was fought as a Presidential Election of a Presidential System. It was the charisma of Narendera Modi that NDA got a whopping 336 seats and BJP alone got an unprecedented 282 seats. This very clearly showed that an individual can define and dominate the elections provided he senses the mood of the nation rightly and steers the campaign in the right direction.

These days, the Lokpal Bill has become one of the most important national issues. This issue is grabbing the attention of anyone who is concerned with the betterment of the country. This is one of those few milestones in Indian democracy that, if achieved, will help in achieving the much required transparency in the whole democratic setup of this country. There is a lot of hue and cry about the Lokpal Bill in various spheres like Govt., media, civil society etc.

Broadly speaking, people have given a strong message to the political parties of this country. The message from the voters of four states and a union territory is clear and bold that corruption, political cynicism, arrogance in any form will not be tolerated and good governments will be rewarded wholeheartedly.
