gslv Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Modi should kick the backsides of jai italy. This guy is in forever lawyer mode.
Yoda-esque Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 BJP appears to be heading for clear victory in the Rajasthan civic polls I will wait for the final results before saying much, but as i suspected the effect of Lalitgate has been......."0" Back in 2010 BJP won 57 and Congress won 49 (others got the rest) Reading IE,HT headlines, one could be forgiven for thinking that it was a great victory for Kangress
G_B_ Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Why is Firstpost Being Asked to Refrain from Criticising Three Top Leaders from the BJP? http://www.caravanmagazine.in/vantage/why-firstpost-being-asked-refrain-criticising-three-top-leaders-bjp#sthash.PSynk7YE.uxfs&st_refDomain=t.co&st_refQuery=/ The problem with the FirstPost is the sensationalist tone they take I fully agree with the jist of this article, I thought the entire point of Jaitley getting the Finance Ministry was that he was capable of navigating bills through a hostile RS. He is a lawyer and not an economist by profession. He should have passed key bills like the GST when the NDA was in its honeymoon period. It should have been item number 1. But the way they set about explaining things , they make it personal. So many times I have seen article begin with "Hey Modi, ...." wtf sort of tone is this? Are you goading them to get a response? You dont need to take pot shots as they claim to make your point.
G_B_ Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 Reading IE' date='HT headlines, one could be forgiven for thinking that it was a great victory for Kangress [/quote'] These people want to make lalitgate an issue. the reason Raje lost in her borough was cause Usha Yadav a local leader she trusted defected to the congress a week before the election. Some say he was given a lot of money to switch as the Congress specifically targeted Raje. However Raje then enacted a strategy of declaring candidates at the very last moment to quell rebellion ans dispatched MAL's loyal to her to micromanage the election campaign. I am assure you that Usha Yadav will be tactically dealt with (in the political context in terms of fielding candidates etc) by Raje. Raje is just too skilled a politician to allow this betrayal to go unanswered. Wary of losing members, BJP adopts secret strategy for polls http://www.hindustantimes.com/jaipur/wary-of-losing-members-bjp-adopts-secret-strategy-for-polls/article1-1376323.aspx Some of the comments from Sachin Pilot and lol worthy. So Raje loses in her borough she should resign. Ajmer Municipal corporation went to the BJP comfortably so Sachin Pilot should resign as in charge of Congress in Rajasthan? Also wtf is up with this "moral" victory?
Trichromatic Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 GB, from where do you get so much information about each state? I don't post much, but I read almost every reply in politics section.
G_B_ Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 GB' date=' from where do you get so much information about each state? I don't post much, but I read almost every reply in politics section.[/quote'] honestly... twitter , you need to filter out the crap over there though. Its a minefield of conspiracy theories. I think you need to be wise enough to filter through what to trust. For example Niti Central. Now dont get my wrong i do read it. The problem is by being a BJP cheerleader you lose the lateral thinking. So its a mixture of twitter and local media sources over MSM english media.
G_B_ Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 and speaking of Raje BJP Takes Control of 87 Civic Bodies in Rajasthan, Congress Grabs 37 http://www.ndtv.com/india-news/bjp-takes-control-of-87-civic-bodies-in-rajasthan-congress-grabs-37-1209725 This is a ruthless and efficient leader. Pilot has shown is inexperience by mouthing off to the media. When he was doing that Raje was concentrating on getting the independents on board. BJP went from 66 to 87 Congress from 35 to 37. +21 gain for the BJP and 2 for the Congress. Raje now has 3 years before the next elections. Govern well and NaMO will top up the BJP vote in the state.
Sachin=GOD Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 What’s Brewing In Uttar Pradesh? http://swarajyamag.com/politics/whats-brewing-in-uttar-pradesh/ Good analysis of what's happening in UP (apart from Smriti Irani for CM - that's an absurd idea and would be disastrous).
Sachin=GOD Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Local elections in Bangalore. Very high voting going on. Let's see how well BJP does.... Edit - Seems I was mistaken....low voting going on.
G_B_ Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Local elections in Bangalore. Very high voting going on. Let's see how well BJP does.... Edit - Seems I was mistaken....low voting going on. Cvoter has BJP at 39% and Congress at 36% in an exit poll
G_B_ Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Cvoter appears to have given Congress the victory....40% to BJP's 39%
G_B_ Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 mutliple polls giving Congress the win in BBMP. Best case scenario is for the BJP forming alliance with Jd(s) Corruption has cost the BJP there. Will be interesting to see if Congress do split it into 3 if they win outright....
Sachin=GOD Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Big news from Assam. Cong going down slowly...
Sachin=GOD Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 ^He is a controversial leader and has been accused in some scams (some say Tarun Gogoi targeted him because of his increasing influence though).
G_B_ Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 not surprising really Gogoi is trying to plant his son and its split the congress down the middle.
Sachin=GOD Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Leads @ 11 am : BJP - 80, Congress - 58, JD(S) - 12, Independents- 05 #BBMPelections.
G_B_ Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 now that is unexpected.... One can only assume that the Congress state government appears to be deeply unpopular. I read first time since 1983 ruling party has failed to win BBMP. If they split it into 3 Congress will still have the issue of facing AAP who stayed out of the result this time...
G_B_ Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 End result will be in favour of Congress... ??? BJP Wins 99 seats. Cong 75, JDS 14, Others 8. 2 seats awaited.
