Critiquing the BJP

I have been an ardent supporter of the BJP for some time now, especially considering the alternative (The congress). Recently though, especially after the debacle in the elections there have been a number of eye opening articles written on the reason why the BJP is not able to win a majority in Parliament.

The more I read, the more I feel the BJP needs a huge overhaul.
