Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 2 (Mar 2018 - )

Collegium defers decision on Justice Joseph’s elevation to apex court The decision is getting "deferred" again, though many news outlets in Kerala still maintain that Justice Joseph would reach the Supreme Court.

Re: Election Discussions - National, State etc

The JDS and INC had no declared alliance until today. The INC moved fast to rope in the JDS. This was most likely done with the movement of money bags. The question is where did the INC get the crores to do this? I would speculate that foreign BIF forces and some foreign governments facilitated the...

Re: Election Discussions - National, State etc

staking a claim for BJP only makes sense if they can create a huge split in the JDS. else better to bide ones time and let the inevitable loot and fighting between JDS and INC create a bad impression, and hope to get a strong mandate in 2019 and thereafter in state elections.

Re: Election Discussions - National, State etc

Cong and JDS can easily pull a Goa/Manipur on BJP. The elections for two seats are being held later. Until that is done or a clear majority of 113 seats is achieved by a single party or a combination of willing parties, the govt cannot be formed yet from the results declared today. The congis have ...

Re: Election Discussions - National, State etc

BJP has crossed the 112 mark on our own. Wokay...my prediction of 115-120 was pretty much spot on. I was watching multiple things including the 5forty3 MAPI tracker. As I said, Braveen Badil got the trend right but was too conservative. And oh, "Chandranna" and Uddhav must be taking a shyte togethe...

We're past the point now where the INC combined with everyone else can not form a government.
