UP election is the queen. All players want to get hold of queen, the prized top award. So like in a game of Carrom, you may sacrifice some lesser valued carrom men for getting the queen, some player may seem losing but they must of doing with some bigger win in anticipation. You plan and play for the ultimate boost which can hardly come unless you get the queen.
Indian electoral politics may be a vast and complex subject, but for the enthusiastic students of Indian politics, UP election is nothing short of a crash course. Just observe the UP election closely, analyze players moves, try to anticipate/analyze/decipher/explain what leaders are saying/meaning to say/doing/not doing and you will see all tricks, some old, some new, some innovative, and some for the first time being used. After all the queen is at stake and all the strikers have been waiting for this moment only.
Dance of democracy and politics and strategy and dirty tricks is full on. You just need to pay attention to it and you will realise how superficial Game of thrones and House of cards were compared to the Uttar Pradesh politics..
