2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Bhell .. bhell ... that is why the Governor waited till the very last to call for government formation so that he could rush through the list with a looming deadline for Governers rule. There is zimply no time to give SS a further 3 days to get its ducks lined up!
Well done BJP/NCP.
Well done BJP/NCP.
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Will BJP/NCP ultimately form the government
Without SS NCP/CONg can’t form the government
SS now feel aggrieved and may not support the NCP

Now IF SS does decide to back-off from the unholy alliance, its negotiating power with the BJP would have been destroyed with just this one maneuver.
BJP wanted SS to make a play for the unholy alliance. This is as clear as it can be.Nov 11, 2019 9:15 pm (IST)
BJP sources say they are still waiting and watching and it is not over yet as people of Maharashtra will see "who works in their interest and who is only power hungry".

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Surely, if SS can get some written assurances of support from NCP-CON, the governor is bound to accept it? Same case with BJP, if they get back SS support and can stake claim? This isn't a solid deadline...chetak wrote:SS couldn't make it in time to meet the governor's deadline. They did not have support letters from either the NCP or the congress.
they have been booted out of the race.

Either SS becomes the doormat for NCP or the doormat for BJP. That is exactly the choice it has been left with. Apologies for the strong word.
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
The offer is with NCP now. The choice with SS is to go with NCP or not. After that CON will be asked and then President's rule. All done nicely and process followed to the dot. BJP is walking the state towards Presidents rule.greatde wrote:Surely, if SS can get some written assurances of support from NCP-CON, the governor is bound to accept it?

IF SS does not like the deal offered by the NCP or CON, believe me they will NOT like what BJP will offer then NOW. SS got played by the BJP.

Even if they join the alliance no Deputy CM
No plum portfolios
Can claim to be in power that’s about it
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
This is what killed them i.e. ego. UT expected a vizit by AS to hammer out an agreement on HIS terms. Guess what, AS decided to poke his ego and kept off. Thus incited, SS walked into a carefully arraigned trap by the BJP/NCP.chetak wrote:The BJP has also been forever absolved of any obligation of seat sharing with the SS for any election henceforth.

Now, SS has no leverage with BJP after they walked out on them. SS better seal a deal with NCP/CON and fast. BJP wants to impose presidents rule AND that is the reason it waited so long. The timing is all the proof that is needed that is BJPs play.

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
IMHO, shiv sena would be best served by shutting their mouth for next few years and coming back to BJP on BJPs terms. Perhaps focus on construction of Ram mandir and raise heat on Kashi/Mathura to atone their sins.
With BJP they will float like iron hook on a wooden log. WIth congress they will sink like a iron hook attached to a steel chain. Hindutva vadi votes or not, the practicality of their histrionics will cost them. It was all their making and BJP by their silence brought them to the cliff. They're yet to jump from the cliff by end of this week (or earlier) it would be clear how self destructive they are

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Now understand, who made the SS withdraw from NDA? AND after that no letter of support and no more time to conjure up the alliance! Wah Wah! what jugalbandi.
Looks like choreographed between BJP/NCP.
Added Later: On India Today, a MH jurno was calling Pawar as the sutradhar and I was . One can easily trace the downfall of SS from the time the results were in. They thought they could railroad BJP into making a substantial offer over and above what they deserved. AS set the ball rolling by pokeing the ego of UT. Rest is carefully laid out script.

I thought SS, NCP and congress made a deal already. Some one took SS for a ride and now they are left with egg on their face. Seriously, they need some good political adviser.

I heard UT unloaded on him for the mess (miscalculation and intemperate language) and poor guy ended up in hospital.
To me looks like BJP+NCP+INC decided to sacrifice SS.
Now SS is left high and dry and its MLAs will defect to where ever power is there.
One dot to be remembered is Ahmed Patel talking to Nitin Gadkari last week and lost in the RJMB verdict.

he is not in the loop.
this whole fiasco started because UT was ultra keen to cement his weak line of succession. Everyone knows that BT's political smarts did not get passed on to these guys.
RT is like a fox in their henhouse.

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
I still believe that bjp and looser SS will come together. I wouldn't be surprised if track 2, 3 conversations by SS with Gadkari has already started. Re-election or gov rule does't help anyone execpt change percentages by few points. BMC is still controlled by bjp and SS. And, BMC is a big deal. The only advantage for disassociating SS is that its stronghold on the BMC can be loosened by some quality audits.
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
General stratehy has been to damage and absorb allies, encourage regional Congress offshoots to weaken Congress so Congress can't have power across the Nation. Unfortunately, regardless of how this play out, MH elections shows limits of BJP and Congress inroads back into what is Saffron belt (Raj, Guj, MP, CG, now MH).ArjunPandit wrote:so basically ahuti of SS as we know it of shiv sena for vadh of congress...

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
From what I am seeing, there are only 3 political parties in Maharashtra:
1. Indian Naxal Con ("Vatical" aka Rahul)
2. Indian Naxal Con ("Hindu" aka BJP)
3. Indian Naxal Con ("xenophobic" aka SS)
All corrupt, pompous, incompetent (except at backstabbing) creeps. No wonder Mumbai cricket team also loses these days. Why can't India's richest and most dynamic city insist on better governance than these?

RT.com:
A people's revolt is needed to sweep away the Goon Power Structure of Maharashtra. How are these guys any better than Haji Mastaan, Dawood Ibrahim, Jinnah and such other famed Maharastrians?Indian PM Narendra Modi’s governing party has suffered a big setback in western Maharashtra state after its longtime ally broke away and joined two other parties to form the new state government, AP reports. The Shiv Sena split with Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party on Monday and decided to form a coalition government with the BJP’s key opponents, the Congress party and National Congress Party. Modi’s party won the most seats in Maharashtra state elections last month and was expected to retain power in the state, home to India’s financial capital, Mumbai. After talks between the two allies failed, they parted ways, dealing the first major political blow to Modi’s party after it retained national power in a May general election.

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
One thing that irritates me and inarticulate loud-mouths pro-BJP spokesman like Geeta Bhat are unable to answer is this. All those who are laughing at BJP ask why is BJP hypocritical pointing to ideological difference between SS and Congoons + NCP, when BJP formed alliance with PDP "just to grab power'. This is total BS. BJP did not form alliance with PDP for 'grabbing power'. They did it because J&K is a sensitive state and were hoping to turn things around by moderating PDP. Unfortunately, the PDP traitors were dancing to ISI tunes, and BJP broke off alliance. Where is the comparison, I don't know.

What if all three, NCP, Congi and SS have a very rosy and an iceberg type of common minimum program where 9/10th of the iceberg is below the surface and invisible to the gullible public while only the very visible 1/10 part of the CMP is like god's gift to humanity, only much better, all beautifully packaged, just for the sake of PR.
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
another version goes that the BJP did it because they were able to get into the govt to access and read all the files and prepare a solid ground for the removal of art 370 and 35A and also to ferret and root out all the hidden from the public misuse of govt privilege, especially those profiting cashmeri politicos.CRamS wrote:One thing that irritates me and inarticulate loud-mouths pro-BJP spokesman like Geeta Bhat are unable to answer is this.

and when done, they pulled the plug in the most unexpected way.
mehbooba is a known jehadi of long standing who was barely reigned in and kept in check because of her more cautious father.
with the father gone, mehbooba was unshackled and she started playing up her paki preferences and poisonous agenda.
her crass and uncouth pro paki behavior rubbed many in her own party the wrong way.
Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
SS/NCP/CON should try that just for fun. As far I am concerned the end result will still be the same i.e chaos in the alliance. Will the SS, in company of NCP/CON, denounce it own hand in the destruction of the Babri structure? Or will they participate in building the new RJB Ram Mandir?
There are so many flip-flops that SS and CON will have to make that it will look ridiculous and destroy all their credibility. That is what the end game per BJP/NCP is.

Re: 2019 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Let's check the numbers,
56(ss)+54(ncp)+44(con) = 154
105(bjp)+15(others) = 120
not looking good for the alliance. atleast 10 guys will jump the ship. my alt theory is, ncp through their moles, wooed ss. both thought they can form gov with con support. con also played along and made necessary sounds. in last minute, it gave hand. lol. . every one played politics.
