The BJP 's remarkable performance in the Maharashtra assembly elections allows it to dictate terms to one and all.

This change in the power pecking order in what was once a Congress bastion has been coming for a while.

The BJP knew all along that the primary roadblock to it achieving pre-eminent status in Maharashtra was not so much the Congress but the regional parties.

Rajdeep Sardesai: Will we now see an Opposition-mukt Maharashtra, like is the case with its western neighbour Gujarat ? The BJP 's conquest of Gujarat was easier because there was no regional party to resist its spread.

The socially progressive legacy of home-grown icons like Shahu-Phule-Ambedkar challenged the BJP 's Hindutva ideological core.
