If I agree with you then Ambani, Tata and Mittal should run as PM, they know how to make India more rich (financially) by MNC mergers and acquisitions.
Congress is the most intelligent and smart political party, they know very well how to play their cards. Recall Indira gandhi's time, she always used to pamper muslims as vote bank; till Babri masjid demolitian and post mumbai & all india riots. Congress was running at the centre for 4 decades continuously as they lure muslim vote bank in UP & Bihar. Congress is well aware that Hindu votes get divided among brahmins, dalits and certain high/low castes....they could rule at the centre with support from All High Net Worth Industralist (for providing Party Funds and introduction of favorable policies on imports), brahimins and muslims (offering muslim to follow muslim personal law and no need of civil codes for muslims). It was give and take support policy.
All regional parties were restricted to their respective states while Congress ruled at Centre with dividing among Hindus and United muslims votes....
Isn't a great RULING strategy!!! But this failed after Babri masjid demolition and Mumbai riots (post 1992-93)...
BJP got popularity and benefited by uniting HIndus and brought all hindus at one platform (similarly Mayawati played the same cards in UP during last elections by uniting Dalit and Brahmins) defeated Mulayam.
BJP with like minded principle allainces created NDA and formed Govt at Centre but could not stand long as congress never learnt to stay in opposition and got back in Power in 2004.
