MuraliRavi-ji,
Care to share your opinion on the candidates? On that note, I noticed that BJP Kaliabor candidate is Mrinal Kumar Saikia. Does anyone know if this Mrinal Kumar Saikia is the same person as the man who wrote the exceptionally detailed book `Assam towards Islamisation' in the mid-late 90s? If so, is it a signal that NaMo is taking illegal immigration very seriously?

Mrinal Kumar Saikia did contest in 1998 as a BJP candidate.

SunilUpa-ji,
I know he contested before, but I have not been able to confirm if Mrinal Kumar Saikia of BJP is the same as the author of `Assam towards Islamisation'.

People here are already demanding what to do and what not do. First, Modi has to come. He has to take over the reigns of the power. Sideline internal enemies. Get cracking at people who are openly aligning with foreign forces to destroy India internally. PAIDMEDIA, PAIDMEDIA owners. They will all gang up to unleash Paki terrorists on India. Lot of cleanup needed.Lot of it.
Swami Ramdevji is having cold feet in supporting BJP because extreme pro-FDI pro-MNC stand NaMo and other BJP-leaders took. Swami Ramdevji and most of his supporters are hard core pro-Swadeshi. I am not sure if Swamiji asked for seats in UP or India. He might have asked to ensure that there are pro-Swadeshi MPs in BJP. Anyway, I dont have any insider information.
Check the names who have invested in his Divya Yoga Mandir Trust. You will find 5-10 names from Britain and America. It's his these "Chellas" might have goaded him for a share in political pie.

Subbu Swamy should be made head of CBI, or Enforcement Directorate. Will be (virtual, hopefully) bloodbath in opposition ranks if that happens.

He is a person who orchestrated the fall of bjp in 1998. He has to prove himself multiple times that his change is not simply one for political benefit.

For the time being atleast he has to pull his own weight. Let him prove himself in his own state, instead of bjp giving away a free seat. If he stays the course until 2019 even if he loses, I would agree that he might deserve a chance. But now, there are more deserving candidates instead of fly by night operators.
South Chennai seat is closer to his home, I think.

This will be an epic election

Amazing how BJP,Modi and SM are fighting some of the most dangerous anti-national,multi-national forces, leftists all over the world, Islamists all over the world, traitors in Delhi who want to subvert every institution to keep the sick lady in power to continue the loot.

2 more months left!

I am anxious to see if the VISHA KANYA and her friends can be tamed or not.

Subbu Swamy played a major role in taking on Mainority. Other than NaMo, he was the one who took on pappu directly. I think he proved himself. I think a player needs to be rewarded when he is in form and performing. Subbu Swamy has taken to Hindhuthva for whatever reason. Whatever the reason, he needs to be rewarded for it. If he deviates then, the punishments can come. But, to have a prejudiced mind would be wrong, IMHO.

Similarly, Baba Raamdhev was one other person who has worked very hard in educating people about the kongis. He was also very gungho about NaMo. I am curious to know what is the reason for his displeasure, if he is really displeased.

----
PM of Bhaarath from Kaashi is kind of symbolic. With a move like this, hopes and expectations of Hindhuthva crowd will soar.

Not for us. For the ignorant people who blindly don't care about anything, don't see the connections and how all these random elements are connected and scoundrels in PAIDMEDIA to Left forces in phoren land are aided by NYT to every other media.

We need to create awareness so that we don't fall into that trap again.

My thoughts on this list:

Overall the list is good, except for the following:

1. Dr. Harsh Vardhan from Chandni Chowk means the BJP has given up on him being the CM-in-waiting for Delhi. Since he was the compromise candidate for CM, this would re-open the factional fights for the leadership position in Delhi BJP. Vijay Goel will become active again in sinking the Delhi BJP.

2. Sushma Swaraj and Shatrughan Sinha, if the make it to the Lok Sabha, will be two thorns in NaMo's side. If they are given cabinet berths, they will mess up the ministries that are allotted to them. If they are not given ministries, they will start dissidence activity against NaMo.

3. Gen. V.K. Singh's candidature has not been announced from Ghaziabad. But IMHO the best seat for him is Jhunjhunu in Rajasthan. There is a large population of servicemen and ex-servicemen in that constituency. He also has past ties there (he went to school in BPS, Pilani). The caste equations are also right for him. Given the BJP wave in Rajasthan, he will surely win from there. It is high time that constituency, which sends so many soldiers to the Indian Army, is represented by an ex-COAS and the future defense minister of India. :)

I think Rajasthan is not yet announced. Haryana was spoken as one of the places for Singh Saheb. He will surely win from Rajasthan if allowed to contest from there.

Future defense minister or home minister(equally critical now with all naxal/jihadi gangs getting fat during 10 years of mafia rule) need to be from LS and not RS. Where is the seat for SubbuS. He has done lot of good work and needed to contest. May be against Chidambaram in TN is JJ supports him will be a great contest. Chiddu needs a good kick in the a** now.

Time is there till the next state elections and Heavy guns are need at the plains of Delhi where Jihadi forces are fully entrenched. Mountains can be taken care of once the Gangatic vally and the nation as a whole is liberated. We can always shift few top dogs back to state when time comes.

Khejri is contesting in Varanasi and therefore abandoned Delhi - Stupid fellow - handing over Delhi on a plate to BJP. Had he has sense he could have contested from Delhi and try to win a seat in LS. Now he will lost in Varanasi and also in Delhi state elections as and when they were held. Of course he has to listen to his gora masters.

I don't think it works that way!

Kejriwal has limited resources. Most he has are borrowed from various foreign-sponsored NGOs, anti-national forces, and the duped Yuppies, who can't seem to get off the tiger.

Kejriwal's biggest friend as such is the media which provides him with a much much bigger illusion of influence and prominence than he has on the ground.

So he needs to remain in the news. During the Delhi elections, his "crusade" against Sheila Dixit ensured that he has the cameras on him, but more importantly viewers in front of their TV sets. Delhi does not offer him any of this anymore. No electoral platform in Delhi available. There is no Sheila Dixit.

So he has to go to Varanasi and create hungama there, and be invited into the TV Studios and rant about Modi. By standing against Modi would give him a "justification" to talk against Modi, ... and lack of development in Gujarat.

What Modi needs is a foil. Modi needs to turn the discussion in TV Studios where Kejriwal is present, away from him and Gujarat, and change it into a media beating of Kejriwal himself. For that one needs someone who can take on Kejriwal, not as someone providing facts to refute Kejriwal's "facts about Gujarat" but to take on Kejriwal rhetorically. Nobody can do that better than Rakhi Sawant. Kejriwal wants to rise above his political aukaat, his political haisiyat. Rakhi Sawant would drag him back down where he belongs as an #ItemGirlKejriwal, as #DramaQueenKejriwal, as #BhagodaKejri.

People should start requesting BJP and Rakhi Sawant to stand as an independent from Varanasi!

Remember all this has no effect on Varanasi. But it does destroy chances of AAP to expand elsewhere through the help of media spotlight on Kejriwal.

AAP is one of the pindari armies of congress and their backers. Light-brigade is still an official detachment of main army. Pindari is not.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pindari

Pindari (पेंढारी in marathi), were deployed by marathas to wreak havoc a day and half ahead of main maratha army. their job was to shoot and scoot, loot, pillage, plunder and avoid any direct fight with main mughal army - just to throw mughals off balance. Pendharis were not paid by marathas, but they "bought" the rights over territories to keep a part of the loot - rest had to be deposited in federal exchequer.

AAP is a Pindari brigand. it is so cute and funny to see that descendants of brits and mughals are employing maratha tactics on descendants of marathas, that too a rejuvenated army under a bajirao like leader.. :D :P

time for direct engagements approaching. time to open artillery fire and order the huzurat cavalry to charge under the cover-fire on enemy flanks. pindaris will run away just by the sight and voice of booming canons and charging cavalry.

unless of course, these neo-mughals are so pathetic that they are now relying solely on pindaris to act as main army (which I know is not the case). If pindaris are appearing to be main opponents, know that somewhere hidden in crevices and forests are mughal cavalry-archers and musketeers. that enemy will reveal when modi is in government. the congi plants will make life hell for modi. but thats for next day. time to secure the battlefield and eliminate resistance.

A nice analogy. A small addition to your post - The Pindaris were also fully secular. Only skill in looting, and plundering mattered (just like the Congress). No religion, caste, creed, community mattered.

I am seeing considerable hand wringing about BJP's Haryana list. I am afraid I am no great expert on Haryana politics. Can anyone comment on the BJP choice of candidates listed below?

1) Ambala - Rattan Lal Kataria (This guy was MP in 99-04 period, I think. He is the political successor of Suraj Bhan, who used to win from Ambala).
2) Kurukshetra - Rajkumar Saini
3) Sonepat - Ramesh Kaushik
4) Rohtak - Om Prakash Dhankhad (He is president of Kisan Union, I think).
5) Bhiwani-Mahendragarh - Dharamveer
6) Gurgaon - Rao Inderjit Singh (He is a Congress defector, old time enemy of Hooda, I think).
7) Faridabad - Krishnapal Gujjar (He is a sitting BJP MLA in the region).

Ramdev to campaign for BJP in Nagpur today
NAGPUR: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev, who was to land in the city late on Saturday, will campaign for BJP candidate Nitin Gadkari on Sunday. He will visit some households from 7am to spread awareness for the Yoga week beginning from Monday all over the country under the aegis of his Patanjali Yog Samiti. In the process, he will also seek support for BJP in the coming elections. He will also call on Gadkari at his residence in Mahal.

During his recent visit to the city, the Yoga guru had announced full support for Narendra Modi as the country's next prime minister. This, he said, was in exchange of Modi's firm promise to get back the unaccounted black money stashed away by influential Indians in secret Swiss bank accounts.

Baba will also address the media at 2pm at Tilak Patrakar Bhavan. Regarding the Yoga week, the Samiti has claimed that 10 crore people the world over would simultaneously participate in the concluding function on March 23 at multiple locations by performing yoga. Reshimbagh will be the venue for the function to be organized in the city.
Ramdev warns BJP of infighting, overconfidence ahead of polls

Swami wanted a seat from Delhi (see last few tweets of his). Given Rae Bareily but i don't think he wants that for some reason. But IMO Delhi has so many Aaptards, it will be hard bridging the difference between Aaptards and Swami's Hindutva. People like Kiran Bedi, Dr Harshvardhan appear to have better chances to win those fence sitters from AAP to BJP. Think AAP success in assy polls may be a factor in not giving a Delhi seat.
