Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

It would be a simple enough legislation to pass, making it impossible to obtain such benefits without filling out a form that declares your religion is still Hindu. There will be a lot of opposition to this and many will be brazen enough to pretend they are still Hindu, but then if there is enough ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

And yet we are currently 80 - 85 % of the total population and being actively discriminated against by a "minority" monster that we ourselves willingly created, pushed from the background by the venomous britshit christians who very slyly and cleverly played their poisonous cards through willing ca...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Could it be that BJP leadership believes that reservation is a good thing and should be continued. Why everything has to be viewed from political angle ? Reservation is a good thing for anyone who can potentially benefit from it. Taming Judiciary is a fast slipping slope which once stepped upon wil...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Fanne, how exactly does provision of reservation "tame" the judiciary? Are you saying those who benefit will swing the system toward BJP/Hindus? Unless you have a logical explanation, it sounds like another one of those "chanakyan" CT theories that are good for an echo chamber. When the judiciary st...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Why is Modi's team going for more reservations? This time in the judiciary.

His reservation made things worse during the last set of elections. So much for Modi-Shah learning from their mistakes.

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Patils prediction has pretty much been off since he started using some model. Initially his was very close to the outcome because he was doing ground surveys, I appreciate that it is time consuming and expensive and he had to stop doing it. But his current methodology has been useless, to the point ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Absolutely true. People are forced to pay for "Christmas" lunches and me to go to masses. Its insane.. I never experienced this sort of thing even though I've lived in a a Christian country all my life. The worst part is when you talk to the Hindu parents, they say "it's not a big deal, it's part of...

Hilarious, but still ..so your solution is to vote Congress? You think they are not corrupt? You are better off voting NOT...

Overall the situation with NDA allies looks fairly solid as of now.... Things look stable in the Northeast (NEDA), PB (Akalis),and UP (Apna Dal). BH seems OK with JDU...and Paswan will likely remain on board after some negotiations. GA also seems OK. No dramatics yet from MGP et al. MH is the only ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

The entire brouhaha over Urijit Patel and RBI fund's just before elections and his stance, lends credence to the fact that BJP knew the issue, wanted to address it, but his obdurate stance cost them that PR. In short, they had feedback from the ground, went looking for money, and were stymied. I ha...

He can keep his strength of conviction after returning to power. First, let him return. We need that. One thing if we have understood about NaMo is his strength of conviction. he is not going to dole out money or give freebies. Not happening as much as people on SM make noise about it.

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Emotions run high just after elections so not the right time to either analyze loss or victory. Loss is mostly because of one reason (mainly) - Upper caste youngster voting against Modi for SC ST act. The older UC vote remained intact. Please see VDP associate caste wise breakdown of MP. It is at 5...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Why isn’t Modi firing this man, he’s an idiot making an already tough election tougher with stupid irresponsible statements. Union Minister Ramdas Athawale's latest statement is seen by many as a blunder. He told reporters on Monday that "Rs. 15 lakh in every account" will reach people slowly, and n...

There's not a whole lot you or I can do other than convince people to vote Modi, because we don't have the power. Better than that would be to help the karyakarthas. But if you've got a shed load of money, then buy airtime or give voters freebies. What needs to be done is change the perception peopl...

This forum brings out the perfect reason as to why BJP has been losing ground, literally. Most here are well off or NRIs, both of whom wouldn't know what the voter is thinking because all of their opinion comes from GDP numbers and feel good tweets from BJP. They live in far away lands or AC rooms t...

If the latter is worse under Modi then your facts can be binned because only you are to believe them. This is what I've been saying for the past several years. You need to get off yo...

I thought there was gas and electricity subsidy. Given as DBT - direct benefit transfer.. sent to their bank account. I can confirm that in KA it's paid.
