He is going to do diddly-squat. The BJP actually has no plans for Sabari Mala. RSS may put up some local resistance, but that generally will not enable winning a long war. Earlier there was this joke of "Centre asks reports from Kerala Govt." after every skirmish in Kerala. This time even that is not there and commies are getting more belligerent. I can say that GoKL has called out Modi (and BJPs) bluff, big time. Pinarayi Vijayan's "advisors" seems to have made a right judgement on BJP's central government.JohnTitor wrote:Modi should do something openly about the Kerala govt.

The Supreme Court has not asked GoKL to take up some woman to the temple. All it did was annull a section in a Kerala local act related to temples.

Arun Jaitley hints at the Eurofighter pandora’s box during his scathing speech countering Rahul Gandhi’s Rafale allegations
Jaitley added fuel to the speculation that Congress is attacking the Rafale on behalf of its competitor Eurofighter Typhoon

Participating in the debate on Rafale deal in Lok Sabha, finance minister Arun Jaitley presented a strong defence on behalf of the government, and demolished the various allegations that Congress party has been making about the deal. During his speech, Jaitley made a very interesting reference about Eurofighter, which had lost out to Rafale in the bid to supply the Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) to India.
Speculating about why Congress party may be trying to scuttle the Rafale deal, Jaitley commented that the speciality about UPA decision making is that “if the aircraft being selected is not the one whose commerce you have dealt with then delay the transaction, make it impossible”. He was hinting that while the tendering process for the purchase of 126 fighter aircraft was going on, Congress party was already negotiating with one of the bidders. But all those backroom deals went haywire when Rafale emerged as the winner after extensive evaluation by experts, which included the Indian Air Force.

This should be noted that although Rafale was declared as the winner of the bid, the deal never proceeded from that point and the UPA government did not sign any deal with Dassault to purchase the Rafale aircraft, although IAF was in desperate need of fighter jets in view of depleting squadron numbers.
Arun Jaitley informed the Lok Sabha that after Rafale had won the deal, the then defence minister’s colleagues were “pressuring him to not accept Rafale”. He said it was because of this pressure, that A. K. Antony had written in his file that the Dassault Rafale is fine, but the process by which they were considered as lowest bidder should be re-examined. Jaitley said that this was informed by IAF after the Modi government came to power.
During the speech of Jaitley in Lok Sabha, some Congress MPs were seen flying paper planes in the house. When the speaker of the house Sumitra Mahajan scolded the MPs for doing so, Jaitley quipped that these paper planes are being thrown in memory of the Eurofighter deal, making an almost direct accusation that Congress was batting on behalf of the European consortium which makes the Eurofighter Typhoon jet.

Although this is the first time a probable Eurofighter link in the Rafale allegations was raised in the Parliament, it was being rumoured for some time. Earlier, it was alleged that Eurofighter sales director had met senior leaders of two political parties in India to raise allegations of a scam in the Rafale deal. It is also rumoured that Rahul Gandhi had met the company officials when he was in Germany in August 2018. According to allegations, the narrative against the Rafale deal has been built up by experts in the US and Europe, based on inputs from Eurofighter.
The mention of Eurofighter by the Finance Minister in the Lok Sabha indicates a change of gear by the NDA government. So far, the almost daily allegations by Congress party and activists against the Rafale deal was countered by the government sporadically. But in recent weeks, there is a marked increase in aggression against the Congress party. BJP stepped up its attacks on the AgustaWestland deal following the extradition of middleman Christian Michel to India, and Michel’s revelations about ‘Mrs Gandhi’, ‘Italian lady’s son R’ etc to the ED.
On the other hand, the noose is tightening around arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari, a close associate of Robert Vadra. He has been hiding in UK since sensitive defence documents were recovered from his residence during an Income Tax raid. He had also tried to forge a tie-up with Dassault, but the French aviation company refused after his links with Vadra was known to them. Recently, several establishments and persons linked with Vadra and Bhandari were raided by ED, and a look-out notice was issued by the agency against one executive assistant of Robert Vadra.
Will you or I guarantee Modi a victory in 2019 or sn ecosystem to protect him? No, right. He is doing what he can. Ruthlessness from him while surrounded by Gfamiglua retainers is akin to suicide.crams wrote: ↑Thu Jan 03, 2019 5:33 amI don't know about putting Kerala govt under president rule, but you are absolutely 100% correct that he plays by the rules while his haters bend every rule or stretch it to the limit to attack him. In fact, the Pappu and assorted thugbandhan attack a straw-man in ModiJi whom they expected to realize their fears of 'fascism', 'communalism', 'breaking institutions', 'dictatorship' etc. When ModiJi didn't live up to their wild fantasies, they sensed a weakness and went for the kill anyway leaving him and his spokesman defending wild allegations. So BJP might as well live up to the image that is painted of them. It can't get any worse. Not to whine but one of ModiJi's glaring failures has been his soft approach to the Congoon ecosystem instead of mercilessly dismantling it.JohnTitor wrote: ↑Thu Jan 03, 2019 3:22 am

This is the problem with Hindus, they don't understand dharma, you don't play by rules when your opponent doesn't.
Yes, all I am saying is that we find ourselves in this position of not being able to defend our traditions due to our own mindless political support to the local/regional and ideological/secular snakes all this time. Even now, even here posters are saying "we don't care about RJB and BJP/RSS is alien to us and not a representative of us" (just paraphrasing from memory...). And then expecting the same BJP/RSS to dismiss governments, uphold all sorts of rights from "privacy for deities" to "pilgrims right not to be cheated"? If there was any substance behind these "rights" would someone have gone to the court with it last year? No, we would be better placed feeding the snakes for the next 50 years by when we won't have any tradition to remember!Sachin wrote: ↑Thu Jan 03, 2019 6:51 amThe Supreme Court has not asked GoKL to take up some woman to the temple.

By imposing president's rule, cpm will gain martyrdom. This is how politics works. Instead let them become more unpopular every extra day they remain in power in kerala.JohnTitor wrote: ↑Thu Jan 03, 2019 3:22 amModi should do something openly about the Kerala govt.

sarkar from putting Kerala under Prez rule when Kerala state govt has been wilfully working towards desecrating Hindu traditions?

A MUCH simpler way to say it is "Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Jain women are entitled to a dignified married life and divorce in India. They also have an equal say in the number of children they would like to bear. Why do you want to deny it to Muslim women?"
Right on the money.
Yes. That's correct. Congress is keeping its vote bank intact while breaking down BJP vote bank into fragments which it can pick up.Chandragupta wrote: ↑Mon Dec 31, 2018 10:33 amVikas wrote: ↑Mon Dec 31, 2018 6:43 amYou have added everyone in the mix ?

In principle this is a formidable vote bank as Congress is poaching on BJP vote bank while retaining its own Minority votes intact and getting OBCs through alliances.
Problem for BJP is not Modi Vs Rahul but Modi vs Anti Modi.
Exactly what came to my mind when I read his post.
One of the ladies wants have a Darshan at #Sabarimala sannidhanam!
A gentleman who accompanied her says we have recorded the video, enough, hurry up!
So the ultimate mission is not to have a Darshan, nor Bhakti, but to hurt Ayyappa sentiments!

These are the Hardcore supporters who belive the world is flat, they form 15% of the population. We need these guys to be provacative. See how DMK controlled Media has put a lid on Seeman and Director Aamir over the last few months. We need them and communists in TN to shut down all factories and threaten they are going to make TN in Kerala before General elections.SSundar wrote: ↑Sat Jan 05, 2019 1:08 amIt really is so disappointing to see so many people actually believe in a Rafale "scam". When you go on FB or WA, you see a disproportionate number of RoL and RoP names spreading hate against Modi for this "scam". Must grudgingly admit that Goebbels is winning the day.
Kejriwal can not support congress explicitly. His whole election plank was about fighting congress even though AAP is a Basterized child of Congress.
