You are a witness to lying by leaders. You are dejected. You feel horrible. People are felicitating the leader who is a liar saying he is the most honest person. Person of integrity. A great benefactor of people. While you may feel dejected, sad and disillusioned, many people before had that same feeling. That is the nature of the world. There is lot of published material on lying by leaders and many leaders might have read that literature and must have decided that lying is the way to go ahead in real life. At some point in time truth may catch up with many persons. But leaders are living in the present. They are winning in the present. They are celebrating in the present. May be you don't know to keep you living what are sort of deceit has to be done by your defence forces. May be the leaders also indulge in lying many time to keep the society relatively stable.
What is the published material on lying by leaders?
Why Leaders Lie
Why Leaders Lie: The Truth About Lying in International Politics is a 2011 book by the political scientist John Mearsheimer.
The book argues that leaders lie to foreign audiences as well as their own people because they think it is good for their country.
In his book, When Presidents Lie, the historian Eric Alterman concludes that presidential lies ‘inevitably turn into monsters that strangle their creators’.

High level of productivity: In economic parlance productivity is measured as the value of output obtained with each unit of input. It is well known that economic development can only happen when we move from low productivity to high productivity activities. Industrial productivity is low and it needs to be improved. Thousands manufacturers still not been able to solve the puzzle around getting the productivity up. Make in India has to address this issue which is as much a concern for the entire sector.
So BJP got 17.166 crore votes during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. It can increase the votes in its favour in 2019 Lok Sabha elections based on its claims regarding serving crores of people during the last four years. 1. Bottom of the Pyramid People Outreach Option
The Government claims that its performance is exemplary and its schemes benefited crores of bottom of the pyramid families. It made a website showcasing its performance during 4 years of rule. Does it believe that it delighted crores of individuals with its economic and social transformation policies? If the answer is yes, it can locate the beneficiaries and reach them for further support during 2019 Lok Sabha elections through its 12 crore members.
People Contact Effort by BJP Field - Party Members
BJP as an incumbent government is truly at an advantage to motivate the beneficiaries of its schemes and programme to lend support. It has to martial its field members to contact the beneficiaries, find their further economic and social needs during the next five years and communicate them back to the party headquarters to include them in the next manifesto. Thus they can effectively capture the beneficiary votes through their past actions and future promises.
If BJP is able to to reach the beneficiaries effectively, Congress will be at a disadvantage. But at the moment, media analysis indicates that Congress has seized the initiative in building up news in its favour. In UP and Bihar, the combination of Akhilesh - Tejaswi - Jayant is being highlighted as the young new brigade that can upset BJP.
