No More "Ashvaklanta" ; Assam Can Re-energize Narendra Modi
Assam is a political laboratory where "nationalism" narrative will be tested 

In forthcoming assembly elections in  five states, there is favorable proposition for Prime Minister Narendra Modi - his party has little to lose, only possibility is to gain - small, moderate or huge.
Modi's political momentum, in recent months,  was stalled by the  united opposition and fifth and sixth columnists and  like Lord Krishna's horse, Modi's digvijay juggernot was stopped in Bihar elections, in mid way. "Shaktiman" with broken leg refused to move forward. and plight of Shaktiman was modi supporters' own making.
Assam elections provides Modi with a new opening, a new beginning. In Assam ,the hills, where mythical horse of lord Krishna became tired, in known as "Ashvaklant". Now it is time to awaken the horse to move on towards destination.
In Sarbanand Sonowal, Modi has got a real leader, a potential national figure. Today he  symbolizes hopes and aspirations of Assamese people. India's political landscape is no longer restricted to the plains of Ganga-Yamuna. Sooner or later, North East will acquire more space in national politics and Assam's ananda- Sarbananda may well become sarvananda of whole nation.
