From the pen of a well-wisher:

Avoidable controversies to be avoided for next 5 years

It would be better if BJP leaders avoid giving controversial statements on issues connected with religion and such other sensitive matters and necessitating counter statements by other leaders in the government. Example: issue of "secularism". It would unnecessarily erode the confidence of the people in the party and create an impression that there is no coherent thinking and unity in policy making and approach in its implementation. Unity of purpose both in the short term and long term alone can build the party's prospects on a permanent footing. Otherwise it would be like any other party known for time-serving and self-seeking butch of individuals enjoying the perks of office after a handsome victory at the hustings unwittingly and certainly testing the patience of voters and volatile young generation with a high expectation from the ruling class.

Pl. focus on economic issues like development, socially justifiable investment,  unemployment, inflation, infrastructure etc. 

Prime Ministers like Rajiv Gandhi and Manmohan Singh spent most of their time outside the country with little contribution directly to the general welfare of Indian citizens.

Karma yogi Narendra Modi would do well if he can avoid the ' moah ' for foreign visits and concentrate fully on the burning issues of India. Very few visits would of course be needed for FDIs and establishing good will in the international community.
