"Hanging on by a thread"
Saritha Rai
The only noteworthy achievement of BJPs
four-year rule i n Karnataka i s that i t has
managed to stay in power
Karnataka does have a chief minister, though
most peopl e are prone to forgetting that.
These days, D.V. Sadananda Gowda is so low
key in that role that one is reminded of his
existence through the frequent annoyances
caused by his predecessor, B.S. Yeddyurappa.
Last week, the BJP completed four years of
governance in Karnataka. It was an occasion
for the party to celebrate its extended rule in
the first southern state it captured. Instead,
Gowda declared that there will be rejoicing.
Just as well, perhaps, because the BJP has
nothing to show for the four years of i ts
exi stence other than the fact that i t has
managed to hang on to power by the barest
thread. "Cheerless" would be a fair rating on
the BJPs report card in Karnataka, though
many would be prone to write "dismal".
In the past four years in Karnataka, various
players in the party and in the government
have behaved like an immature, ill-behaved
bunch of spoil t chi ldren. At every phase,
dissidence has dogged the government. And
the key pl ayers in Karnatakas BJP have
rushed off to meet party leaders in Delhi to
help sort their mess.
Until recently, the government and its ministers
appeared to feature in a scandal-a-month
marathon. From ministers facing rape charges
to an MLA whose wife fled from the marriage
(and whose body was l at er di scover ed
hanging in an apartment in New Delhi), to
legislators watching pornographic videos in the
assembly, the BJP has been all shades of
inglorious.
Corruption has been another thing altogether
for thi s BJP government. More than one
minister has been dispatched to jail for shady
l and scams. Former chi ef mi ni sters and
ministers have been charged in land and
mining deals. Ministers, bureaucrats, police
officials and their kith and kin have all gifted
themsel ves government l and, and these
skeletons have tumbled out of the cupboard
with great frequency.
When Yeddyurappa was CM, he was hounded
by di ssi dence and was f i nal l y forced t o
relinquish his seat in August last year after
being named in the mining scam investigation
but not before he anointed his political
lightweight of a supporter, Sadananda Gowda.
Now the ever-petulant Yeddyurappa is firmly
on t he ot her si de of t he fence, stoki ng
dissidence against this very appointee whom
he recently called "traitor". Yeddyurappa has a
f l ock of l egi sl at or s on t he r eady wi t h
resignations in hand, all set to quit at his
merest signal.
It is a miracle that the BJP government has
lasted four years despite such high drama.
Perhaps the partys leadership in Delhi can
take some of t he credi t for keepi ng the
Karnataka government together. But then the
same Delhi leadership is accused of stoking
dissidence from time to time.
In all this, that vital element governing
has been ignored by the two CMs. At best, the
government can be said to be chalta hai, with
a CM who wakes up i n the morni ng not
knowing whether he will last in his chair that
day.
For instance, later this week CM Gowda will
preside over a Global Investors Meet (GIM)in
Bangalore. Instead of the lavish jamboree
staged by his predecessor, Gowda says that
this years meet will be a mini-event with focus
on small ticket investments and regional level
investment in the districts.
The response from investors to the second
edition of Karnatakas GIM has been less than
fervent and that can only partly be due to the
pervading economic environment. As Gowdas
l uck woul d have i t , Ameri can bi l l i onai re
investor Warren Buffett, who was invited to do
the honours at the meet, will not make an
appearance.
The CM s cabi net expansi on i s another
much- del ayed exer ci se as pr o- and
anti-Yeddyurappa factions in Karnataka slug it
out . Nearl y a dozen cabi net mi ni st eri al
positions are vacant. Quite apart from the
politics of it, the vacancies can only mean that
the barest minimum work is being executed in
those departments.
If he survives the dogged Yeddyurappas
machi nati ons for the next three months,
Gowda will soon mark his one year in office.
Of l at e, as di ssi dence agai nst hi m has
intensified, the canny Gowdas smiling face is
showing some marks of wear and tear.
Wi t h j ust a year t o go t o t he assembl y
elections, Karnatakas BJP does need to get
its act together. More importantly in the coming
year, Karnataka needs a hands-on CM and a
government that does not merely exist.
