I suggest we focus on this question to find people who might work with us.

  1. How do you rate democracy in India on a scale of 0-10? Countries like China and Iran would be 0 and Scandinavian countries like Island, Finland, Sweden, Norway would rank 10 - free education and healthcare for all.

  2. Do you think the opposition parties would improve the situation, even if they are not the ideal situation.

We have to collect people who think the opposition would be relatively better (not fascist, not obviously majoritarian) and try and unite the opposition as splitting on anti BJP votes would play a major spoiler to defeating BJP.

What do you think ?

BJP wants people to believe that they are invincible. However, they got 36.56% of votes in 2024 Lok Sabha elections (even when they won 303 seats in 2019, they got 37.36% of votes).

So, we have 64% of people who don't vote for BJP. Let's make that number 60% (because some of them would be voting for an NDA constituent party). We need to convince 60% of those 60% (which makes it around 36%) to vote unitedly against the BJP. It worked to an extent in 2024 - voting patterns show this (despite rigging) when anti-BJP forces (including the voters) united causing the BJP to lose majority in the lower chamber of Indian parliament.

There is still a lot of room for opposition in India. No single party has ever got 50% of votes in any Indian general elections (not talking about the state elections).
