Just see the options we have now:
- Congress who blantantly ignored development and was corrupt
- AAP which was amazing initially but now is really BAD and lacks the charisma to draw in voters
- Other corrupt UP parties (SP/ BSP)
- South parties which lack any ambition (DMK)
- Evil lady who was actually a hero but lived long and became the villain (Trinamool)
I don't really like BJP, in my state they literally took in local rowdies (saw it in news), very dependent on a corrupt old man for votes and somehow my state is in top 5 DESPITE incompetant parties. I really pity the fact that BJP is the best option we have RN
Also going by your logic, Congress ruled for 60 years with only 2 gaps in between - so we weren't democratic right?

Actually, I don't like many of their policies - they implement stuff, face backlash and withdraw it after damage. They can't control their party workers' firebrand statements. There is corruption at lower level.
BUT it is the only government which is pushing for infrastructure, focusing on neglected states in northeast(Congress treated it as a buffer). UP was a 'bimaru' but now Yogi is actually doing splendid work. They revolutionised digital payments and their foreign policy is top notch.
The only reason many Indians support BJP is because they are putting in real work and we can see the development.
I still hope that we can see a honest opposition (not the likes of AAP/Cong) rise up and challenge BJP but until then I will continue to vote for BJP at national level.
