Chanakya is the agency that worked on Congress 2009 campaign. They list their "Congress ka haath aam admi ke saath' as one of their successes. That and their track record on rooting for AAP in 2013 Assembly elections would make them suspect in my eyes. If they say 340 then I would see it as a method to muddy up the post poll negotiations. Bear in mind, Amit Shah the negotiator team opening batsman (implication : optimistic uvachas) has not gone beyond 300. In fact I would take any outlier with a pinch of salt.

Only problem is the definition of outlier. Anybody who roots for 289 or 340 cannot deny the existence of 261. The other way round this logic cannot flow. 300+ does not seem sure enough a bet to start your negotiations on and Amit Shah is probably preparing grounds for negotiations. So IMHPOV the lower limits being the surer way are the ones to rely on.

My hunch now is between 260 and 280 for pre poll NDA. Hence the running around that we saw last few days.

That slogan was coined by Jairam Ramesh and Salman Khurshid, apparently reworking the old IG slogan. Also, Chanakya is owned by RNB Research which didn't branch out into elections till 2010 AFAIK.

@Vina saar,

chodo ji yeh sab sanghi rednecks cannot really appreciate a normal guy. But I assure you, I can and I do.

I have ranted against AAP since the Assembly Elections. But now that the polls are over and only counting is left I think I can come clean and stop playing politics around here.

I believe and this is a confession - AAP was a master stroke of a diversionary attack. I am sorry I had to rant against the Nagpur skunkworks also. Too sorry about that. AAP because of the simpler message actually does tap into the angst like the Abrahamics have. Besides even within the Seculars there are people who were fed up with UPA but not willing to overtly side with BJP. These secular folks are also quite nationalist in their outlook but more in the modern sense (ie. discounting history/accumulated karma). AAP ultimately would prove to be the castle where NaMo would do what Count Vlad did to his enemies in his castle. AAP was the diversionary attack that did its job of wiping out Congress from the mindspace of all Indians.

My advise for non-sanghi Nationalists would be to avoid AAP. It seems fresh but that is only a window dressing in the sense that whoever floated and propped up AAP does not seem willing to keep them propped up. As a result it will ultimately end up as the den of all anti-nationalists. It is going to become - the fire at will melee fight that we all love. You guys instead should wait some time. If NaMo performs then you too will get converted and if he does not then you can be sure there will be other leaders for us all.

Thank god for you Kannadigas. Had you guys not voted out the sloppy politics of Pre-NaMo BJP we would have been saddled with the onerous task of having to prop up an entirely unsuitable man (LKA) who was surrounded by mediocrity and spies. That would have poured dirty water over all the hard work that BR had been doing. Hope BJP was able to convince you Kannadigas in time for the General Election vote.

Sorry but Vina doesn't represent kannadigas as a group. If anything he represents an elite, which has benefited thoroughly from the post 1947 power structure, is firmly on the side of western capitalism and yet wishes to see Nehruvian secularism continue. In short, you will find people like these from all sides and all ethnicities, states etc. Particularly amongst the most urbane yuppies.

IMHO, amongst many Kannadigas, fractiousness (caste based) apart, you will see a lot of admiration and sympathy for both the BJP and the RSS. If anything Yeddy takes a fair share of blame for having let the state BJP break apart, apart from the machinations of Bharadwaj and Ananthakumar.

Vina garu,
Re:Devolution

Recent declaration by Yogendra Yadav on how every Indian state is better off with its own Article 371.
Do you want this unmaking of Indian Union - which you all cutely call "devolution" ?

AAP in favour of autonomy to Kashmir: Yogendra

Calling militarisation a “sign of weakness of India in Kashmir”, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Monday spelled out its Kashmir stand saying the party is in favour of autonomy to Jammu and Kashmir.

“Every state should be given right to draft their policies as per its need,” AAP’s central leader Yogendra Yadav said in Budgam. Yadav is the first top leader of the party to visit Kashmir to campaign for Raja Muzaffar Bhat, the party candidate for Srinagar. “AAP believes that not only for the prosperity of J&K, but every Indian state should have its own autonomy.

Taking on BJP’s political position on Kashmir, AAP’s Yadav rejected the forces pushing for abolition of Article 370.

“AAP believe in Swaraj. In Swaraj, every village, district, state should have the power to decide for its betterment. Article 370 is a part of Swaraj,” he said.

Yadav also described “militarization as a sign of weakness of India in Kashmir”. “In real democracy, there is no need of military strength. It is used for external threats and it should remain confined to it,” he said.

The AAP leader called for decrease in the army's footprints in the valley. “Military presence in Kashmir should be as much as in Punjab, Haryana or in any other state of India,” he said.

Now read what sAAP is upto in Punjab.

Writings on the wall: The rich and the ostrich
The vicious Badal family feud plays on, while the youngest political entrant, AAP, courts ghosts buried long ago
......
It is also uncanny how this election has revived some of those memories and issues just when nobody wishes to be reminded of them. For reasons I can’t fathom, it seems that the AAP has reached out to former but now overground and peaceable radicals, who may not use AKs anymore but swear by Bhindranwale nevertheless. Their Ludhiana candidate, lawyer H.S. Phoolka, is a renowned and respected activist on behalf of the 1984 riot victims in Delhi. In Gurdaspur against Vinod Khanna, Sucha Singh Chhotepur is a radical too. The local press has been carrying articles that the Akalis are feeling a bit lost as the AAP seems to have hijacked the panthik agenda. The United Sikh Movement, which is the umbrella organisation of these radical groups, has announced its support to the AAP, and while it may bring in a few votes (or none at all, they are irrelevant, Sukhbir insists), this is a dangerous liaison.

Navjeevan Gopal, The Indian Express correspondent in Amritsar, helps me find Bhai Mohkam Singh, a kind of convenor of these groups. We exchange one look and figure out we are old acquaintances. As a 24-year-old, he was always by Bhindranwale’s side, survived Operation Blue Star and, in fact, escaped. He now claims he was only a sewak and performed religious duties. But he was much more important than that. Your memory doesn’t even have to be particularly special to recall his face and frame, so striking in his flowing kurta, bare legs, saffron turban, all in a sea of AKs and carbines.

He says key AAP leaders started attending their seminars and vice versa, and slowly confidence built up amongst them. “We support them,” he says, “because we are all demanding the same thing, autonomy, devolution of power, exactly what Sant Bhindranwale had asked for, though he was deliberately misunderstood{really? } by Indira’s Congress, which carried out Blue Star purely for political reasons, or nobody had given her party any chance of coming back to power that year.” As to whether it was alright to assassinate her, he says anybody with elementary knowledge of Sikh history and tradition would have known what to expect.

Mohkam poses proudly under Bhindranwale’s framed portrait in his living room. He speaks of what’s wrong with Punjab. “See that mall across the road, Alpha One? This is Amritsar’s best mall,” he says. And see this colony, all of us have contributed money to lay our own sewer, instal our streetlights. Won’t people be angry? He reminisces about how he escaped the Golden Temple after Blue Star, hiding in somebody’s house and then borrowing a pair of chappals to walk away: “The army had all come from outside and knew nothing. They followed one basic principle.

If you had bare feet, you were coming out of the temple and were shot. If you had footwear on, you must be innocent,” he says with a laugh. I am too incorrigible a reporter not to notice that his car, a tiny Toyota Etios Liva, is numbered PB-02A-1984. Remember that year? 1984. If anybody from the AAP wants to explain why they are rubbing shoulders with this lot, I am happy to offer space on these pages. I decide, however, to move back to the crisis in today’s Punjab rather than the one three decades back. Because, I remember Bill Clinton’s dire warning: If your memories outweigh your dreams, you must be getting old.

in our fathers gen people had more time , work and pressure to succeed was not so high...you could meet many multi-dimensional people who knew a lot about the world. that generation is dying out, and all ppl care is bank balance, number of reports in the team, work, prestige, length of the sedan and sq ft of the villa.

its pretty depressing seeing the kid level of knowledge in most of colleagues. at some point their overall curiosity about the world got capped and they went into the matrix to become fit only for a few things.

whoever escaped the matrix and took the red pill found refuge in isolated islands like brf where we await the second coming of the mahdi and the day of revolution.

Whatever said and done, the AAP IS a clean party with a transformational agenda. They make all the right noises in terms of devolution of power and accountability and corruption. Politics is always about balance. If the BJP is right of centre (context matters, it is India after all, the BJP is actually LEFT of the Democrats who would be a radical right wing party in India), you need someone to the left of center. The Congress is on it's knees and there is space for an alternative there to vaccum up the jokers who would otherwise graduate to the Lalus and Mulayams and Owaisis and other sectarian formations into a bigger more positive umbrella.

I do hope that the AAP forms a good alternative to those and gets in the non BJP votes into a that agenda.

Keezha vilindhalum meesai'le mannu ottale !

Even after having fallen down - the male reassures (himself & others) that there is no mud sticking on his (manly) moustache

The ego brought about by scholarship & awareness of knowledge is as difficult to control, manage & suppress (in front of others) as those caused by other factors like 'external beauty' & 'wealth in hand'. Some of us are affected by many of these factors ...if not all three of these.

SP Udhayakumar & Pushparayan were standing for AAP in Kanyakumari & Tuticorin. Both were beseeching the leadership of various local church organisations to intimate their faithfuls on Sunday Mass ... to vote for them. AAP... as of now... is a bogus group of anti-nationals in many areas of the country who are masquerading as people who can bring real progress for the country... but the truth is that they are all stringently against any real Industrial & agricultural development and are anti-India in certain ways (No Dams/No Nuclear Plants/No Hydel Power Plants/Yes for Plebiscite in Kashmir/Anti-Indian Army in Kashmir/Pro-Indian Mujahideen statements during Delhi Assembly elections). The AAP candidate who fought against NaMo in Baroda was a builder from Maharashtra who is a loan defaulter of lakhs of rupees for regional co-operative credit banks. Kejriwal ... is yet to give up on his Delhi government allotted bungalow in a posh area even though he is no longer the Delhi CM and he chose this smaller bungalow .. only after people raised protests against him when he initially chose a 5 bedroom bungalow as his residence.

Clean party, sir ?.
Transformational Agenda, sir ?.

With their agenda - the whole country will be in chaos.

The whole of the current leadership setup in AAP needs to be purged. It needs to be replaced with people who are sensible in nature, who open their mouth only after having thought twice or more about the consequences of their words, who are experienced in handling governance of organizations and who will provide a clean idea of good governance. We have had enough of 2-bit shady journalists ... transforming into fake social service & patriotic people. AAP as per their governance until now - is seen to be an entity that will increase subsidy in resources like from Water, Power to Fuels .... but anything given at rates less than their cost price only leads to people not valuing the resource and end up in large wastage of the same. They do pander big time to the minorities by whitewashing the sacrifices being made by Army personnel in Kashmir, Police personnel running behind Indian Mujahideen & those fighting the Maoists. In no way are these AAP guys different from Diggy baba and Azam Khan. These types of antics are the most easiest to follow by any small organization that is given power for even one single day and that power grab is used only to ensure more votes flow in during next elections and nothing else sensible gets done.

To me - Lok Satta in Andhra appears to be a probable sensible party for the future ... but they are yet to grow into a big group. They need all the help in that regard.
