Re: Indian Economy News & Discussion - Aug 26 2015
Continuing where Vina left.. there are too many toll booths on highway, surcharge for things that are not improving e.g swachh Bharat. Middle class is paying a lot of money for very little in return. Although I will continue to bote for Modi but only because of TINA factor. His ideas are good but im...

Re: Statewide and National runup to 2014 General elections
Buzz from Rajasthan Congress and BJP units. BJP expected to win 20-21 seats. Sachin Pilot, Girija Vyas will lose. Biggest win for BJP will come from Rajsamand. Betting rate for BJP is 20 paisa there.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Not sure how much influence these people will have. But the BJP CMs and Amit Shah will most probably make sure these people don't succeed in stopping Modi from coming to Delhi.

Madhu Kishwar on twitter is saying that Jaitley is trying to sabotage Modi's chance. He deliberately chose wrong candidates in Jammu. Also Jaitley, Sushma etc are delaying candidate selection. But all rumors must be taken with a pinch of salt.

AAP has a press conference at 11. I guess from today they will attack Modi and BJP full time and media will amplify it.. Dynasty will use all tricks. I have also noticed media being openly hostile to BJP. Earlier they used to be more subtle.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
The good thing about AAP is that it will force BJP to select doers and not Dilli Billis. Vasundhara Raje is acting very humble in this tenure compared to last time when she was Maharani rather than for people. Some of this has come from her loss last time, NaMO effect and some from how people have v...

AAP and NaMo have been a blessing for India. Within a year whole political scenario is changing. How neta are behaving has changed.
I know AAP can lead to Congi coming back to power. But it is for the second time (after 1977) that people have broken the back of arrogant netas.

I think NaMo did not mention Pandits because he was focusing on creating fissures between Shias and Gurjars on one side and Sunnis on there thereby breaching the enemy fort. But it does show that he is taking Pandits for granted.

Re: Narendra Modi vs the Dynasty: Contrasting Ideas of India
Some panelists said that Samajwadi Party and INC may form a covert or overt alliance in UP to contain BJP's reemergence. I have also seen people claiming that INC and BSP will team up. In both the cases BJP may not increase its seats much if there is no wave in its favour.
