Narendra Modi's fast is called - Sadbhavan Fast. He has several clear cut points on his political and personal agenda that he is highlighting on the occasion...
- The relief (that he claims) that he has got from the Supreme Court - experts say that it is not exactly a clean chit, but then that is a different issue.
- The thumbs-up that his style of governance has received in the US Congressional Research Service's report.
- The informal announcement of his candidature as Prime Ministership of India in the 2014 polls.
On the personal front, the fast could be his way to thank God for the period of successful governance in Gujarat.
But, what is Shanker Singh Baghel's agenda? He, it seems, has sat on a fast just to oppose Narendra Modi. There is no other apparent purpose of Baghel's three-day fast - besides ensuring the Narendra Modi is not able to hog all the media attention.
Yes! that it. His only and seemingly successful agenda is to divert some of the media attention that would have otherwise Narendra Modi got. Now the media is forced to give some time to Baghel, from what would have been undivided and uniterrupted focus on Narendra Modi's activities during the 72 hour fast.
