losing Guj or winning with a reduced majority will be a HUGE morale booster to BIF cabal of forces.

airwaves will be swamped with #blowtomodi narratives for even a reduced majority win

Not just that. 2002 investigations will be reopened in INC on NM. That is going to happen if they come to power in Guj.

I had asked this in BRF - what is the actual situation in GJ?
Is there possibility of BJP actually losing. I am getting a feeling like that. That will be disastrous.
I know ABP did a poll some time ago that showed majority for BJP but I am not convinced at all.
Any opinion polls in the local GJ media?

Saw a tweet from the 543 guy a few days back saying that BJP's voteshare in GJ is almost at the 2014 level.

Is Kamal Haasan India's next movie star-turned-politician?

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-41411712

Is he going to be on the Dharmic side or not. It looks like, based on the above article, that Rajni will be on the opposite side.

No idea who is going to align with whom. Folks from TN, please shed some light on this.

TIA

http://m.dw.com/en/rohingya-deportation ... a-40746310
"The [Indian] government's decision to deport Rohingya en masse is like genocide because it is a willful extermination of a class or race of people," lawyer Colin Gonsalves, who is representing about 7,000 Rohingya, told DW. Gonsalves was recently awarded the 2017 Right Livelihood Award, also known as the "Alternative Nobel," for his "tireless and innovative use of public interest litigation."

Kamal is being used by DMK pasand ecosystem (their tv networks, their FB meme page admins, dmk paid twitterati, DK subaveera pandian types etc)

He either does not realize it or is happy to still do it, as long as he gets some satisfaction from pissing on admk. He seems to still nurse some grievance against admk, from the viswaroopam days.

already his 'nuisance value' is reducing. He was never a mass actor and never will be a mass leader. His goal seems to be to use this churn and uncertain period to settle scores with admk. Brave guy that he is, he is doing this after JJs death. In one interview he said something like "if needed he will work with bjp" or something innocuous like that and the next day all the dmk pasand spokies dropped him like a hot potato and started crapping on him :lol:

Rajini does seem to be serious about this...much more than Kamal. You can tell because he's been carefully avoiding media to not get trapped into labels and boxed into corners on political rhetoric. My guess is, he will gather some folks who have goodwill but cannot win electorally, and launch a party on that platform. But his target will be the state elections due in 2021, not general elections in 2019.

But this govt may fall...it is only surviving by all kinds of political thillu mullu (gol maal)

They are coming out of the woodwork! Here's one more. The guy addresses DYFI annual meeting and brings up their favorite "mudi's silence" on Lankesh just when that outrage was losing steam fast!

I think it is like in the advertising world... These guys Kamal et al must be sought out for their visibility and their willingness to parrot some cleverly crafted messaging in return for lumps of cash or favour.

I am anti-SoMoKe (SoMoKe = SoGa / NaMo / ArKe, I see them as almost one and same) and I am also anti-CoRaAp (CoRaAp = congress / rss / aap , again, I see them as almost one and same, and imo RSS = BJP, just as shaktimaan = gangadhar )
.
I will be contesting gujarat-dec-2017 assembly elections . My vote share is is about 1.1% of polled votes
.
So really dont bother about who - congress or RSS wins. (RSS = BJP)
.
But from what I hear from people around me --- many RSS-voters are disillusioned and less enthusiastic. Notebandhi / GST has taken toll. THEIR LOYALTY MAY NOT CHANGE. But they may be less inclined to cast their votes. There are still some 70 days to go before voting and atmosphere may change in these 70 days.
.
But imo ATMOSPHERE is less pro-rss compared to may-2014, when NaMo wave was a TsuNaMo.
.
So RSS = BJP may be able to get majority with ease. But voteshare of may-2014 seems unlikely to me.
.
Again ---- I am not much into election forecasting and who wins / loses. My focus is on - what LAWS voters / activists should work to get printed and not wager on who will win / loose.

This may actually play out in 2019. RSS/BJP old timers may stay indoors.

I don't understand the current PM's governance style. Trying to be clever with own vote bank and seeking acceptance from BIF.
He has pissed off a lot of people. The same people that started voting for BJP since late 80s and stood through its dark years of 2009 washout.

While he would get away due to a combination of lack of alternative among the opposition and his recent adoption of socialist nanny state model (which has brought in lower classes).

Having said that, indifference by old timers will have its own cost in the long term.

.
Some other national issues
.
(1) On BRF , critiziing DeMo would fetch instant bullying by Disha etc . Pro-demo bullies like Disha etc would simply pull collars of anti-DeMo persons start a third degree torture by asking "kitna gaya" and so on !!! So let me first say - my cash loss in DeMo = Rs 0 . I had some Rs 90000 of 500 notes on demo-night and all were 100% bank withdrawals made before diwali (and had no Rs 1000 notes). I spent some Rs 10000 in medicine , petrol (in friend's cars) etc despited the remaining about Rs 80000. So before bullies ask me --- let me re-state --- my personal loss in demo = Rs 0
.
But DeMo has given ZERO gains to India, and losses to crores of Indians --- poor as well as rich. And most black money wealth have black wealth in gold, land and maurirtitious bank, and all were untouched. (No - cash dealing in land is UNEFFECTED by demo). And small increase in digital transactions (sep-2017 compared to sep-2015) has NOTHING to do with demo. Across world, internet payments are rising
.
(2) Another trend on BRF was --- one MUST support GST !! GST is a DISASTER and will ruin India. Let me repeat --- GST is a HUGE disasater and will ruin India. Excise , sales tax, vat, CST, service tax etc were bad and should have been scrapped off long back. And instead we should levry WEALTH TAX on land / construction / shares etc and we should streamline income tax by removing plethora of exemptions (like Mauritius treaty, Fiji treaty, exemptions to SEZs, exemptions to infrastructure etc). But instead of wealth tax, sponsors of SoMoKe (SoGa / NaMo / ArKe , one and same) sucessfully forces SoMoKe to levy GST and not wealth tax. The result will be al ll out disasater. Indian companies will heavily loose and foreign companies will gain. And I blame ALL three SoMoKe (Coongress / RSS / AAP) for GST , not just NaMo.
.
(3) Leaders of India such as SoMoKe have become 100% pure puppets of desi-videshi elitemen. And the share of videshi elitemen is rising day by day by day. Indian elitemen too are becoming puppets of videshi elitemen. Most paidmediamen like bikau sardesai, bikau arnab, bikau dutt, bikau sudhir tihadi chowdhary, bikau pranay roy etc are now more and more dependent on videshi money. Most bikau-mediamen no longer take orders from Indian leaders like SoMoKe and they directly take orders from videshi elitemen
.
So India is in deep mess, and things are geting worse everyday

Frankly if people are expecting no rebuttal here for demo they are mistaken. For one thing why did stone pelting funding etc suddenly come down. Why has real estate cooled.
HST everywhere has an initial dup followed by recovery. Check naka bribes have stopped and easier movement is there and yes the Navrateo Deepavali buying spree has increased. Yes actually increased despite your moans and groans.
