'Arrogansee' and 'proudyness'

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar have become the most vociferous critics of the party leadership. 'Arrogansee' and 'proudyness' are among the ills that plague the team led by BJP President Amit Shah, they say. The two words may not find a place in an English dictionary, but they are common parlance in the Hindi heartland. BJP leaders from Bihar are particularly overjoyed that two state leaders, Nitish Kumar of the Janata Dal (United) and Lalu Prasad of the Rashtriya Janata Dal, showed BJP bosses that "strategy and resources might win elections elsewhere in the country but not in Bihar". BJP leaders from Uttar Pradesh, several of whom felt ignored by Shah and his team, believe the party will get another jolt in the state Assembly polls in 2017 if the current 'arrogansee' of the party leadership persists.
