If you want to see what a two-party system in India would look like, just look at Tamil Nadu. The state has effectively had a two-party system for ages now.

If their political eco-system really was mature then we'd have Gabbard, Yang etc as Potus.

Also divisions in US aren't even close to those of India. We aren't called a "continent masquerading as a country" for no reason.

Two dominant parties but they have many chillar parties some of which are openly hostile to India and harbor separatist ambitions. Whether we like the politics in TN or not there is no denying that the state is relatively wealthy and very industrialized compared to many other states . One of the reasons of its success is its political stability.

India in 1947 started with effectively a "one-party" system that stayed for 3 decades, then there was a period of new parties (national and regional) rising and creating upheaval over the next 2.5 decades...and now coalesced into what is effectively a "two-party" or "two-sided" system....BJP versus "the rest".

"The rest" currently go by various names and incarnations and don't get along with each other a whole lot - but all share some kind of loose alliance based upon anti-national mindset, aversion to Dharma, and simple opportunism.

That's the best kind of situation to be in now. A very large, cohesive, cadre-based nationalist party versus a fragmented anti-nationalist opposition based mainly on family and business interests. We don't need anything else right now.

In future, the best scenario is that BJP keeps eating into the opposition parties' voteshares. The family parties wither away slowly. The only significant opposition remaining would be those parties (existing and new) claiming to represent specific religious or linguistic/cultural interests ("greens", possibly a section of the sikhs, "dravidian" groups). The commies will also unfortunately be around for a while in some low-level form.

A two-party system cannot be "imposed". However, reforms that I mentioned earlier could be legislated. Most important, only national parties should be allowed to directly contest national elections. State/regional parties already get to send MPs by way of Rajya Sabha - that's what the RS is for. Sending MPs to LS by such parties is basically "double-dipping".

PS: The coming expansion of the Sansad will accelerate all the above processes. Modi would not be building a new Capital District with a nearly 2X expansion of Sansad to nearly 1200 members, without a very long term vision.

This article has a bunch of useful numbers and links. The analysis of Modi's plans is also quite good (of course, from a very negative standpoint since this is a BIF type writing the article). Let's hope the author's worst fears come to pass.

Amarinder resigned.

Looks like PAPPU and PAPPINI want to make Paki Sidhu as CM

Looks like they are handing Punjab over to Kujli ...

I am wondering if they have been asked to foment trouble everywhere and lit fires all over and then quit.

^^This old fool has only himself to blame. Despite having an impressive name of Amarendrasimha, he is ending up looking like an old and weak buffoon. His nationalist sentiments would have been of better use a few years ago when he could have taken a good chunk of MLAs to join the BJP, thereby allowing SAD to be cut loose and for the state to have a strong nationalist party presence. Unfortunately, "better late than never" doesn't work in this case. The inaction of well-meaning morons is worse than the misdeeds of malafides.

In an internal circular released by the company, it informed that Sanjay Pugalia has joined Adani Enterprises as Chief Executive Officer and Editor-in-chief to lead the group’s media initiatives.

I read somewhere, that Channi was given final go ahead once Sidhu also gave his consent. He spoke to Channi before giving his consent. Sidhu is not someone who would let a golden opportunity go. So question is how much did he ask as the monthy hafta? I bet nothing less then Rs 50 Crore.

Unless the Congress manages to once again shoot itself in the foot, 2022 assembly elections in Punjab should be a cakewalk . I have a feeling that Channi is just a placeholder until the elections. He is relatively low key, he is a dalit (negates BJP's dalit card), he is not pro-Khalistani, so once Congress has Punjab in its bag they'll place Siddhu in the CM seat.

If i was Gehlot i would be very worried. BJP has less than zero chances in Punjab but there's a good chance of BJP coming back to power in Rajasthan if only it can prop up a new face in place of Raje.

As far as the history I learnt, in Sikkhism everyone was equal. That is what langar or serving in gurudwara represented.

How and when "Dalit" category among Sikhs was manufactured?

Freedom of speech, safety valve for dissent not for the common man hain?

Sena workers blacken face of man for allegedly putting out defamatory post against Maha CM, others

Shiv Sena workers outside a Pune court on Sunday blackened the face of a man, who was earlier arrested for allegedly posting defamatory content on social media against Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, party founder Balasaheb Thackeray and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar.

The accused identified as Abhijeet Limaye, 35, was arrested from his residence in Mumbai by Pune cyber police on Saturday. He was produced before the court, which granted him bail.

As soon as he was released, some agitated Shiv Sena workers gathered outside the Pune court and blackened his face.

Not just in Sikhism or should I say not just restricted to Sikhs
Take for example the Desert Cult: Check out Ashroff, Aljaf and Arjaal.
Or read the Fatwa-e-Jahandhari.
Rolers: have Upper Caste and Lower Caste churches. CSI is exclusively made of converted Dalits
Ligayats: Panchamasali, Reddy, etcs.
Jains though better : Digambar/Shwethambar, North India/South India, Rajasthani and Gujjus have fair amount of dispute amongst themselves but not vented openly! and they have the caste connotations!!
All carried over from the Hindu Faith.
All of them take pot-shots at Hindus about their Caste etc but have the same system in theirs.
The major reason (I believe that its just perpetuated forever) is probably access to the Reservation (or Affirmative Action or whatever you may want to call it)
So its just I want to have the Cake and eat it too!! :D

It is dishonesty to accuse Hindus of caste but have no problem in setting up a global caste system by dividing humanity into believers and non-believers, with the latter subject to contempt and hatred and not considered equals.

kudos to cyrano & krithivas ji for having the patience to sit through the 3 days of mental torture chamber & even compile the bile!

myself & a few friends had once joined in a gufta-goo of desi BIF dhakkans about 'student arrests by the police State of India' conducted by umar khalid & few more roaches of delhi (same ol' same ol' milieu of jnu-jamia 'milieu' hinslamia) in the aftermath of arrests of 'students' & the 'pinjra tod' hacktivists by the delhi police in the wake of anti-CAA violence-wave in delhi & its roach-farm colleges. just as cyrano ji noted on the very 1st day about the 'intellectual' daftness & lack of any substance in the DGH speakers' 'arguments', same was our observation too about this event. all ghantallectuals only, doing just RR about the arrests & rambling inanities (dont recall if this was before the delhi riots or after; probably the latter). we had recorded the event iirc & taken screenshots of the names of the attendees. ofcourse most of them were greeny slimey gooey. then the funniest thing happened - south delhi CP or someone joined in & we saw more than 50 of the attendees logging out immediately! :rotfl:

if any of you has been following 'sabloktantra' channel, can you pls tell what's happening with it? the channel though is back, but it seems jootube's hanky-panky with it has not stopped. just y'day i watched a recent upload of his, a commentary on Sadguru's remark on the DGH. and now i cant find that video! :-?
