Supplicants get nothing.

Since the BJP, won only 240 seats in the Lok Sabha, (wikipedia), "Many had expected that the BJP's allies would extract their pound of flesh by cornering core ministries," but "Most of the allies have got non-core ministries." ET. In short, a stiff middle finger. With 272 needed for majority, the TDP with 16 seats and the JD(U) with 12, took the NDA to 268 seats, and smaller parties chipped in with another 25 seats to take the total to 293. But the TDP and JD(U) got just one cabinet post each, exactly the same number as JD(S), HAM and LJP(RV), who also got one seat each. TOI. Thus, the TDP and JD(U) have been humbled and Mr Modi has shown that he is the boss. Be happy with crumbs. "With the new government depending on the support of N Chandrababu Naidu's Telugu Dasam (TDP) and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) [JD(U)], it will be difficult for the Narendra Modi-led NDA government to shrug off" the demand for 'special category status' for Andhra Pradesh and Bihar. "States that come under special category status get preferential treatment in getting central assistance and tax breaks." DH. However, after eating humble pie over cabinet posts, it is extremely unlikely that Messrs Naidu and Nitish Kumar will get anything at all. What can you expect of a party that strongly associates itself with Hindutva (wikipedia), but then abuses Hindus, as BJP supporters are doing? The BJP lost its seat in Faizabad, which contains the city of Ayodhya with the newly inaugurated Ram Mandir. India Today. Not just Ayodhya, "In Allahabad parliamentary seat, Congress candidate Ujjwal Raman Singh defeated BJP candidate Neeraj Tripathi by a margin of 58,000 votes." TOI. Allahabad is the site of the Triveni Sangam which is the confluence of the holy rivers Ganga, Jamuna and the legendary Saraswati. wikipedia. "The hatemongers of the BJP are not just condemning the people of Ayodhya; they are cursing them, especially the Hindus." "Allahabad was renamed Prayagraj" "But, like the people of Ayodhya, the people of Prayagraj also betrayed the BJP. There, too, the BJP was defeated." Quint. Perhaps, the legion of mindless fanatics, known as 'Bhakts' (DH), should reflect that BJP's defeats could be because Lord Ram was not pleased with the cynical inauguration of his temple for electoral gain. All four Shankaracharyas, who are heads of monasteries, boycotted the inauguration ceremony of the Ram Temple because traditions were not followed and the temple was not complete. Mint. If Lord Ram is displeased more misfortune may befall the BJP. But then, Mr Modi claims to be of divine origin (The Wire), so perhaps he can sort it out personally with Lord Ram. BJP's allies should be content. Crumbs are divine.
