Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
So has Ajit Pawar gone back to NCP now? What a masterstroke by NCP! Though I dont know why BJP fell for it. No problem, otherwise SS and INC where playing a drama, now they have openly come out with their agenda- this was a post poll setting but a pre poll alliance, its too contradictory for cadre ...

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Yeah the only baffling thing is this only- if BJP didnt have the numbers for sure, why jump the gun? Let SS-NCP-Con rot in their own thing. Maybe Ajit Pawar indeed was a mole.

Fadnavis to hold press conference at 3:30PM. Looks like he indeed resigned. Thats some big f-up here by the BJP. They were in better position before this maybe? At least had the sympathy of the public, for whatever its worth.
