This clown has no ability to execute any thing.

The implication of this plan will be to eliminate middle class and add it to the poor.

Over a period of time the 70s will look like the glory days of India.
the intent & feasibility was made clear by the jameenchor-jija-ka-'janeudhaari'-saala in the press conf then & there itself - it'd be a *pilot project* & launched in *phases* starting from lesser sums. baaki, yall do the secular math.

This 72,000/yr freebie will be in addition to the Rs 5.34 lakh crore govt. is already distributing or will it be adjusted within the existing freebies, thus the total may go up by about 1 lakh crore instead of 3 lakh crore?
Not really INC opposes Aadhar linked direct cash benefits, and in the past Govt dole, under 15K its going to prove who is eligible and who is not, plus there are single women etc, so if implemented, it will cost an additional 7.2 Lac crore a year, we will back to reducing capital expenditure on Railways, roads and bridges from current 1.2 Lac crore a year to about 11 crore a year in 2011. Interest rates on EMI , Auto loans will go up about 5% and inflation rate will spike, it will be unmitigated disaster, if INC is elected they will simply like a million promises made in the past will simply not implement it- which they are never held accountable for.

Meanwhile, Sam Pitroda has been rewarded for his pro Pakistani and anti Forces views as Congress Campaign Monitoring Committee.


pitroda has sent a very clear and unambiguous message to the BIF that help us and we will help you.

His very specific statements on pukilund regarding the bombay attack and the non culpability of the paki nation is the exact point being made by commies, urban naxals and "liberals" in India and is sweet music to the ears of forces inimical to India.

When paki culpability is staring you in the face they chant "no proof, no proof", exactly like the pakis do and exactly like the pakis want them to do.

There is no anti Congress mood, and thats my worry . so Modi really needs to target RaGa. Like those shazhada jibes, Congress just doesnt take humor well, and will only resort to abuses. Modi really needs to put pressure on Congress and dicate terms, rather than just a pro-BJP campaign.

If csram wasn't enough riled up with India's current affairs, this article will certainly help him to bring up his outrage by a notch.

http://theasiadialogue.com/2019/03/26/n ... -the-edge/

Excerpts to raise BP
On 14 February 2019, a ‘home-grown’ Kashmiri militant killed more than 40 paramilitary soldiers in a suicide attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir.
Two weeks after the attack on the soldiers, on 26 February, Indian Air Force fighter planes entered into Pakistani airspace and claimed to attack a terror camp in Balakot. Although Pakistan confirmed the intrusion of the Indian fighter aircraft, it refuted India’s claim that the air strikes had killed a large number of militants. International media have also raised questions about India’s claim that the air strikes were successful. The day after the Balakot attack, Pakistani fighter aircraft trapped an Indian MIG 21 fighter and chased it into Pakistani-controlled Kashmir, where they managed to shoot it down and capture the pilot.{conviently forgetting to mention downing of TSPAF F-16 by the same IAF pilot}
The capture of the Indian pilot by Pakistan led to the real possibility of full-scale war, but thanks to the timely mediation of the US, the UK and some Gulf countries, as well as the Pakistani prime minister’s peace gesture of releasing the captured pilot unconditionally, a temporary lull has been established in the extremely volatile situation.
Consequently, after the humiliating capture of the Indian pilot, Modi was reportedly contemplating missile strikes against Pakistan. However, Pakistan’s threat to retaliate, alongside international pressure, stopped that plan for misadventure.
For India to provoke Pakistan into an armed conflict now is like committing hara kiri. Pakistan has the ability to launch a nuclear strike against India within 8 seconds and can strike New Delhi in five minutes. Even India’s professed strategy of massive retaliation against a nuclear first strike does not take away the real possibility of Pakistani nuclear missiles reaching several Indian cities. Not only does Pakistan have more nuclear warheads than India, but like India, it also possesses ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and sea-based nuclear delivery systems.

Not only does Pakistan have more nuclear warheads than India, but like India, it also possesses ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and sea-based nuclear delivery systems.
Pakistan’s strong friendship with China which has stood the test of time further complicates India’s position. It is quite doubtful whether India’s current prime minister has a fully comprehensive understanding of India’s military-strategic strengths and vulnerabilities.
Manmohan Singh’s Pakistan policy in particular, which has frequently been vilified by Narendra Modi, was based on two simple principles: keep talking to Pakistan at various levels even in trying times; and actively engage in creating an inclusive and broad international voice against Pakistan’s use of terror groups as strategic assets.

I don't know why I am posting this here. This idiot is a class one a$$wipe...sitting in Sweden...just like another person Dhruv something...

I am surprised how Indian MSM never bothered to pay anything more than a mere lip service to the fact that Cambridge Analytica was a client of INC. In fact, BJP should bring this fact up as much as possible.

Also, anyone know why BJP & INC+allies are polling neck-neck in K'taka? From what I read is that, in N K'taka, in fact voters are being drawn towards individual candidates who are running independently but it seems like INC is willing to ally with these candidates to gather seats. In effect, there seems to be an anti-BJP sentiment in many parts of the state. Anybody knows why? How does the situation in Bangalore look? South BLR which traditionally votes for BJP, voted in INC candidate in last year's state elections.

Have to admire the guy who came up with the 72,000/year promise. Politically it's a brilliant move. It may not work, depends on the leader. But at least we need to acknowledge him. Somehow he figured out the whole hinduthva and nationalism thing. Raj, MP, CG elections were proof to it.

You can admire Rahul Gandhi. I am yet to come up with anyone in the Congress party who claimed ownership of this idea.

Not really INC opposes Aadhar linked direct cash benefits, and in the past Govt dole,

Why is INC doing it now when it itself started Aadhar linked direct cash transfer to bank accounts?

when you say middle class do you mean the 2% of the population which pays income tax or the entire broader middle class? Mind you overwhelming majority of broader middle class does not pay any income tax.

BJP must drive home to the middle class and anybody who makes more than 72,000 Rs that congress will increase its taxes, cut benefits, infra and education spending. Make sure the middle class vote across caste lines for BJP.

It should hammer home the point to the poor that congress cannot fulfill its promises of free money as there is no money to do it. Must point out MP.

Any ground reports from India on how the poor are reacting to this promise? Out of the 20% poor, how many are already congress voters? How is the rest 80% reacting? If this is a top up scheme, i.e., the difference between 12k/month and their current enemy is given to them, some of the 20% must be getting only a marginal benefit and not the whole 72k. They must have less incentive to vote for the congress.

Right now, according to congress, the bottom 20% familes' average annual income is 72k or 6k/month. So on average, they will have to pay 6k/month to bring all of them 12k/month. Many will shun hard labour and look for easy work or simply do no work.

Those who talk about “ funding “ #NYAYforIndia, can look at the following: 1) Reforms in current subsidy distribution to cut wasteful expenditures 2) Lesser leakages 3) How to cut vast state resources being hijacked by crony capitalists 4) An efficient and equitable tax policy
Guys, congress is feeling the heat. Need to keep up the pressure. Ask the congressis for specifics on every platform.

1. Modi already did it through Aadhar and DBT. Not much scope. The only thing remaining is cut subsidies. Hammer to existing beneficiaries who do not fall under the new scheme their subsidies will be cut

2. Again Modi did it already. Not much scope there

3. What does this even mean. Way too vague and how much is is even going to get?

4. More taxation. Middle class is scr**ed.

3. i guess that means, state govt.s giving out resources to 'capitalists' to set up industries (like land etc.)

check out what kind of brainfarts are now being readied to be poopagated:

"No they are not freebies. Maybe call them:
- Subsidies, that startups+middle class get all the time
- Govt support, that our banks, airlines, & corporates get all the time
- Reparations, that we owe for unfairly exploiting the nation's resources + systemically oppressing the poor"

whatever he says is immaterial, his appointment as RBI guv was a purely political one by the congis and his father was some sort of govt employee either sacked or some imagined ill treatment like that turd presstitute of runditv whose father, as a serving diplomat, was an ill wisher to the cause he was supposed to serve.

Its perfectly OK for someone/anyone to oppose India's nuclear policy but have the moral courage to quit the office/govt and then open your filthy, stinking commie mouth.

Don't draw a capitalist salary, and as a self attested gandhian, enjoy royal diplomatic perks and then mouth some apeshit commie inanities and bilge and that too while in holding office in a foreign country and especially, in front of foreign dignitaries.

You shame yourself, your office and your country, all at the same time, despite alleged gandhian credentials and so called ties to India's freedom fight.

this equally applies to a recent beloved of the press, a loquacious, garrulous and empty headed, publicity seeking ex RBI guv, whose commissions and ommissions while in office resulted/helped in the massive PSU banking scams.

That he chooses to open his mouth during the election season, and specifically through the biased medium of a specific and tainted channel is proof enough of his nonpartisan and commie/congi/urban naxal political preferences and it also begs the question as to which are those shadowy and poisonous entities backing him and why.

How does it matter if someone is paying direct taxes or not.

They are still paying indirect taxes with GST.


The object of Congress is to eliminate the entire middle class and turn them into dependent on doles.

It has always been that. If we have a middle class. It is inspite of the government not because of the government.

No positive agenda for governence what so ever.

Besides after nearly 50 years of garibi hatao. We still have so much poverty. What really makes you think that they can execute this plan without any curuption.

Mission Shakti: After India’s A-SAT missile test, China hopes nations will uphold ‘peace and tranquility’ in space

Mar 27, 2019

Beijing: China on Wednesday reacted guardedly to India's anti-satellite missile test and expressed hope that all countries will uphold peace and tranquility in the outer space.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday announced that India successfully test-fired an anti-satellite missile by shooting down a live satellite, describing it as a rare achievement that puts the country in an exclusive club of space super powers. The test makes India the fourth country in the world after the US, Russia and China to acquire the strategic capability to shoot down enemy satellites.

Mission Shakti: After India’s A-SAT missile test, China hopes nations will uphold ‘peace and tranquility’ in space

The Chinese Foreign Ministry, in a written response to a question from PTI on India successfully test-firing an anti-satellite missile, said, "We have noticed reports and hope that each country will uphold peace and tranquillity in outer space."

China conducted such a test in January 2007 when its anti-satellite missile destroyed a defunct weather satellite.

Prime Minister Modi said in New Delhi that the action was not directed against any country and the satellite was a pre-determined target orbiting at an altitude of 300 km. He said India did not breach any international laws or treaties by testing the the anti-satellite missile.

Mission Shakti, which was led by the Defence Research and Development Organisation, was aimed at strengthening India's overall security, Modi said in his address that comes a fortnight before the start of the general election.

In New Delhi, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a statement that India has no intention of entering into an arms race in outer space. "We have always maintained that space must be used only for peaceful purposes. We are against the weaponisation of Outer Space and support international efforts to reinforce the safety and security of space based assets," the MEA said.

this para reminded me of this talk:



its in hindi. members who can understand hindi, pls dont give this a miss! ashok ji (most of you would know him from DD/RSTV/LSTV) tells abt what the 'gangs of gathbandhan' are clamouring for, how the lefshit poopagand* of coalition govt.s being good for development is an atrocity on intelligence, and how disastrous the coalition govt.s are/have been for the country. must-watch!

P.S. - IBTL has reactivated itself at another critical juncture again..good onlee! saadhuwaads to them.

IMO, Opposition could have performed better in this season of elections if they would have simply congratulated DRDO/ISRO for ASAT and moved on but Nooooo, They had to drag NM and Nehru and Congress and make spectacle of themselves. Not contended with it, They also activated their paid Lame Media to create FUD and credit Bandit Ji an dthen the $hit blew up.
Even those would have treated ASAT as some news now had their ears glued to news and realized that UPA govt scuttled India's effort to reach for stars. Honestly it would have been a damp squab for NM to appear on TV and announce ASAT while people were expecting Demo-2 or SS-3 but opposition made Potato of Gold.
Ordinary Indian who has no memory of JLN or even IG can't fathom why it is so hard to accept India has done good for opposition.
All they had to do was ignore ASAT and go back to unemployment, Fear, Rafale and 72K.

Locked
