This could simply be posturing or it may be true.In another politically crucial state - Uttar Pradesh - Congress will go it alone in the Lok Sabha elections, according to AICC General Secretary Madhusudan Mistry.
MP CM is definitely in trouble, a reason he got off the high horse and invited NM in a big way to his state. Raman Singh faces a touch and go situation but may pull through.gakakkad wrote:i have heard from some bjp guy that there is a lot of anti incumbency in chattisgarh and mp and bjp faces an uphill task contrary to what we think ...niranullah could u confirm? also con party is managing to cash in on slain leaders in cgarh...in mp 11 ministers face corruption charges and there is trouble in indore and gwalior...how true ?

The ads basically depict families complaining no electricity, no water, etc. some ads also talk about corruption. There is nothing about what the congress will do if they come to power.

Such rumors do come up every now and then, and Kiran Bedi does quash them, saying she does not wish to enter electoral politics, but you never know.Former Indian Police Service (IPS) officer Kiran Bedi is likely to be offered a Bharatiya Janata Party ticket for contesting the Lok Sabha elections next year. A BJP leader said that Bedi is in touch with party leaders on this. "The party is exploring options of fielding her from Delhi's Chandni Chowk constituency. However, it will take some time for her to join the party. It will not happen at least till the Assembly elections are over," the source said.
"Many senior leaders, including Nitin Gadkari, wanted her to join the BJP before the Assembly elections so that she could be projected as Delhi's chief ministerial candidate. However, national president Rajnath Singh and state BJP president Vijay Goel vehemently opposed the idea. This destroyed her chances," he added.
This is buzzword and to me a speculation as I lost belief in everything. If this happens then the story will change forever. BJP can remove this Telangana stuff even from their manifesto. There is no chance forever that this bifurcation getting passed in AP assembly. I just can't imagine such a thing.President Pranab Mukherjee is said to have assured Andhra Pradesh leaders that he will not sign the bill creating Telangana if it comes to him without being passed by the state Assembly. Mukherjee, who was the chairman of the Group of Ministers on Telangana before becoming President, had refused to take any decision on the matter as he was opposed to the bifurcation of the state. The President has also indicated to his close associates that after the next elections, he would ask the party or pre poll alliance that gets the maximum number of seats to form government, be it the UPA or NDA.
Everything has a timing. when BJP hits 4-0 and at that time she may be shown her spot.Hari Seldon wrote:Sad part is NM-Rajnath don't still seem to have a full handle on the party.

I understand they'll pick their battles carefully but an internal saboteur who's inside the tent and pissing in....tut-tut

Unfortunately, this is true. If you came to Bangalore by bus from Raichur, I assume you came by the Bellary route and not the western route. Unless Sreeramulu comes back to the BJP (and brings with him the Reddy money power), the eastern belt of Karnataka is hard for the BJP to win. In large areas of central Karnataka (Raichur, Koppal, Bellary, Chitradurga, Davanagere, etc), the BJP is almost not even in existence.Gunjur wrote:Just came back to bengaluru by bus from raichur (in north karnataka), all the way long everywhere one finds posters, cutouts of congress/siddaramaiah.

But if the posters were to tell any story, it says a lot about the karnataka bjp being nowhere near the power they were just few years back. 2009 it seems is way way back. Irrespective of bharata gellisi rally being a success or not, bjp karnataka unit has to do a lot of work before its in the reckoning.
KaravaLi (Coastal karnataka) was in some ways the launching pad for bjp in karnataka. Even today organisationally they are strong there.BhairavP wrote:On the other hand, I came from Mangalore to Virajpet and there were a bunch of Modi posters out there.. are they strong in DK?

The very fact that the gang is BSR_Congress and not BSR Janata party or something like that clearly shows who their real masters are/were. BSR congress is congress mole at the end of the day. BJP can grow/regain inspite of BSR not being inside. Yes, they have to put in more efforts but certainly doable. Actually its a benefit to bjp as BSR gang puts off lot of other people in state. But will sushma allow this?? If yeddyurappa is brought in, she will fight for her "sons" also.nageshks wrote:Unfortunately, this is true.

Well, Raman Singh has a good rating personally and therefore he is not out of picture. The voting trend may be along traditional line or may not be but (yes it is a beautiful word indeed) game is still too close to be complacent and error bias if any, should be consciously towards downside.niran wrote:reality check:
in CG the Baster is the pathway to CM chair, there are 18 seats last time Bhajapa won 15 with average voting % 65% with sukuma( congress stronghold) 35%, this time around it has been 75% but (ain't this a beautiful word) Sukuma onree 23% and 14 poll booth total boycotts i.e. onree 0% voted, and people say congraysis will win with their core voters boycotting the elections?!?! hainzee? wake up ye DDM already there has been lot of folks getting hurt laughing and falling off their chairs.
Rajasthan is the best placed state as per BJP walas too and MP is the closest of all. Largely on account of the anti-incumbency faced by MLAs and Ministers who were put in place to decimate Uma Bharti in the first place! SSC is hard pressed to eject them in favour of winnable candidates. Moreover SS being an MP from that state she chooses to assert her role there too.in MP SSC well known and liked even if some of his ministers are not, and they have been replaced or kicked upstairs to work for the cause, one example Rewa zone(where SG was yak yaking yesterday) is considered most important in MP it has 30 seats, in congress infighting has created 5 different teams in the zone, so much so that the night before SG yak yak congraysis went into fisticuff just to be onstage and the most important neta a whatshername lady was black flagged and sent back without her attending the rally,have not said anything about rally grounds with security and neta entourage more than attendees. MP and CG is Bhajapa, the fight was for Rajasthan, and NaMo added target dilli so now it is either 4/1 or not.
