Now if that will transcribe into vote is anyone's guess but a good start nonetheless after being a pappu for years.
He was never a pappu. He was socially awkward and maybe uninterested.

You need to start paying attention to smart people like me who can see through liars and cheats like the current leadership of the BJP :)

Nahh..Don't fall for Congress PR

Karnataka BJP plans big OBC rally to counter Congress yatra

BENGALURU: Considerably piqued at the turnout at Siddaramaiah’s birthday bash in August, and the interest the Karnataka leg of Rahul Gandhi’s “Bharat Jodo Yatra” is drawing, BJP plans to organise a massive OBC rally on October 30 in Kalaburagi, in an apparent bid to stem the tide.

With an estimated four lakh turnout, Siddaramaiah’s birthday rally in Davanagere seems to have set the bar.

lol at this being stage managed, that's feku's USP.

He has done this for over 2 decades now and quite successfully apparently. And the real pappus are bhakts who keep falling for feku's lies.

The problem with 'smart' people like you is that you think a socially awkward and uninterested pappu is fit to lead the country. Leadership requires a level of commitment and a certain degree of smartness, and nobody sees these in Rahul Gandhi.

LOL he rallied big crowds in Amethi too, the last time around. Everyone came and saw, and voted for the BJP.
 
I like it that Sashi Tharoor is contesting for Congress President. He certainly deserves it and should he get elected , the BJP better watch out.

Rahul Gandhi is only fit to be Tharoor's valet.

He's been evolving at an alarming rate and it's showing in his connect with common people when he meets them.

I currently would take Rahul Gandhi over Kejriwal as he seems more sincere even if he's the lesser politician.

Rahul Gandhi is only fit to be Tharoor's valet.
And yet, it's Rahulg who's been advocating elections in the party for years now. You seem to be confusing his mother with him. Tharoor just yesterday said that Rahulg told him privately he'd been asked by ageing Congress leaders to convince Shashi to withdraw but that he instead supported Tharoor running for Prez.

He's only reached Karnataka and Modi's BJP are wetting themselves :))

State elections coming up lol

They threw Gadkari out to accommodate Yediyurappa in the parliamentary board. That's how worried they are about their current useless and insanely corrupt Bommai government winning, even with all the bought MLAs.

Bishnoi’s son in Adampur, Rajgopal Reddy in Munugode — BJP fields Congress rebels for bypolls

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Saturday announced Haryana’s Congress-turned-BJP leader Kuldeep Bishnoi’s son Bhavya Bishnoi as the party’s candidate for the upcoming Adampur bypolls.

The party also named two other candidates — Komatireddy Reddy Raj Gopal Reddy for the Munugode seat in Telangana and Aman Giri for the Gola Gokarnnath Assembly seat in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur. While Reddy is a Congress turncoat who jumped ship from the Congress to the BJP in August, Giri is the son of late BJP MLA Arvind Giri, who died last month, necessitating a bypoll in the constituency.

The 29-year-old Bhavya Bishnoi is the grandson of the late Bhajan Lal, the former chief minister of Haryana. He had unsuccessfully contested the 2019 general elections from Hisar, which he lost to BJP’s Brijendra Singh. Adampur, which is long considered a stronghold of the Bishnoi family, comes under the same parliamentary constituency.

lol, so these are not entitled dynasts or shahzades as feku would have called them had they been fielded by Congress.

Well done sanghis on duplicity count. You seem to be doing exactly opposite as to what you're preaching your gullible bhakts about.
 
Nahh, Anything to do with Ammayi Sonya's son would net BJP an extra 10 votes without any effort.

Ravindra Jadeja Says Wife, Candidate In Gujarat Polls, Wants To Follow PM Modi's Path

Jamnagar (Gujarat): Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja today said that his wife Rivaba Jadeja who has been fielded by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from Jamnagar (North) seat in the state assembly elections wanted to follow the path of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to work for the people.

Ravindra Jadeja attended an event on Monday where he said that Rivaba would learn a lot from her first-time candidature in the assembly elections.

"It is her (Rivaba Jadeja) first time as an MLA candidate and she will learn a lot. I hope she will progress in this. She is of helping nature and has always wanted to help people and hence joined politics. She wants to follow the path of PM Modi to work for the people," the cricketer said.

Earlier on Sunday, Jadeja urged the people of Jamnagar to vote for his wife Rivaba Jadeja.

Jadeja tweeted a video urging the people of Jamnagar and cricket fans to vote for his wife.

"The Gujarat election is here and it's like a T20 match. My wife is making her grand debut in politics on a BJP ticket! Tomorrow she will file her nomination. I appeal to the people of Jamnagar and all the cricket lovers to come in large numbers to support her," Jadeja said in the video in which he was speaking in Gujarati.

Rivaba replaces sitting MLA Dharmendrasinh Jadeja as the BJP face for the Jamnagar (North) seat, who was denied a party ticket in this election, according to sources.

Earlier on Sunday, the BJP announced one more candidate for the upcoming Gujarat Assembly election. So far the party has released the names of 167 candidates for the Gujarat polls.

The party fielded Jagdishbhai Makwana from the Wadhwan Assembly constituency.

Earlier on Saturday, BJP released the second list of six candidates. In the second list of six candidates, BJP has given tickets to two women.

It has fielded Mahendrabhai Padaliya from Dhoraji, Mulubhai Bera from Khambhalia, Dheliben Maldebhai Odedara from Kutiyana, Sejal Rajiv Kumar Pandya from Bhavnagar East, Hitesh Devji Vasava from Dediapada (ST) and Sandeep Desai from Choryasi.

On Thursday, the BJP announced the first list of candidates for 160 candidates out of the 182 constituencies for the upcoming Gujarat Assembly elections.

The first list of 160 candidates includes 14 females, 13 from scheduled caste, 24 from the scheduled tribe and there are 69 candidates who have been repeated.

The Assembly elections in Gujarat are scheduled for two phases on December 1 and December 5. In the first round, 89 of the total 182 Assembly seats will go to polls and prominent political parties have declared their candidates for almost all these constituencies.

The BJP has drawn up a list of star campaigners for the upcoming Gujarat Assembly elections. Topping the list is Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The other prominent names on the list include BJP national president JP Nadda, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari and fellow Cabinet colleagues Smriti Irani, Dharmendra Pradhan, Mansukh Mandaviya and Purushottam Rupala.

Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, who is seeking a fresh mandate from the Ghatlodia Assembly segment, also features in the star campaigners list along with BJP state president CR Patil and state Home Minister Harsh Sanghvi.

The ruling party seeks its seventh straight term in power in the ensuing state polls. The state has been a BJP stronghold for a long and the party has set its sights on returning to power with a handsome majority this time as well.

However, it faces a stiff electoral challenge from the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which has named Isudan Gadhvi as its chief ministerial candidate.

The Congress is also hoping to put its best electoral foot forward to unseat the BJP government.

The BJP has been in power in Gujarat for the last 27 years and it is considered a BJP bastion.

Why is your face turning into Saddam? Himanta Sarma asks Rahul Gandhi

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma’s comparison of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has triggered a sharp response from the Congress, which condemned Sarma for being a “petty troll”.

During a public rally in Ahmedabad Tuesday, Sarma spoke of Gandhi who has been sporting a beard during the ongoing Bharat Jodo Yatra.

He said: “I just saw that his looks have also changed. I said in a TV interview a few days back that there is nothing wrong with his new look. But if you have to change the looks, at least make it like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel or even Jawaharlal Nehru will do. It is better if it looks like Gandhiji. But why is your face turning into Saddam Hussein?”

“This is because the Congress culture is not closer to Indian people. Their culture is closer to people who have never understood India,” he added.

What an abominable creature this guy is! However, commenting on one's looks is in sanghi DNA even if the person in question is a newly minted sanghi.
 
Maharashtra: Farmer applies for damages under PMFBY, receives Rs 1.76 in compensation

Raut had paid an insurance premium of Rs 455 and another Rs 200 later for crop-loss assessment, with the expectation of receiving compensation of around Rs 27,000 per acre.

A farmer, who claimed crop loss insurance under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) after the rains in September devastated his two-acre farm in Dhasala village of Maharashtra's Parbhani district, received Rs 1.76 as crop damage, The Times of India reported. Krushna Raut, the 32-year-old farmer, had invested Rs 25,000 in soybean, tur dal and gramme. Two other farmers received a compensation of Rs 14.21 and Rs 37.31 respectively.

Another farmer named Pandurang Kadam was compensated Rs 37.31 for one crop and Rs 327 for another. Kadam, a 33-year-old science postgraduate, is the owner of two acres of land. While his premium was Rs 595, his brother Indrajit paid Rs 1,980 and received a compensation of Rs 73.42 and Rs 260 for crop damage to two crops respectively.

"Hindus Don't Normally Contribute To Riots," Himanta Biswa Sarma

Guwahati: "Hindus normally don't contribute to riots," Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma told NDTV on Thursday, in one of the most brazen admissions of whom the BJP wants to paint as antagonists for most instances of communal violence in the country.

Asked to explain a spike in inflammatory rhetoric by leaders of his party - such as his comments on "love jihad" and Aaftab Poonawala, the man arrested for murdering his girlfriend, or Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks on teaching "a lesson" to rioters in 2002 - Mr Sarma doubled down.

"For any Left-leaning person, it is a communal remark. But I said this in a national sentiment," he said, responding to a question about propagating claims of love jihad, a conspiracy theory accusing Muslim men of wooing Hindu women to force them to convert to Islam.

"I see it (ignoring love jihad) as a politics of appeasement by some. It is a concern for the security of women. There is evidence of love jihad. Even in Aaftab Poonawala's polygraph test, it is said that he revealed his actions will take him to jannat. There are reports on it," Mr Sarma said.

Elaborating on Amit Shah's remarks, he said, "Post-2002, the Gujarat government took a series of actions to ensure peace in the state since then. There has been lasting peace in Gujarat. No curfews happen now."

"There has been peace since 2002 in Gujarat because of what the Gujarat government has done. Action has been taken against rioters. I have to ensure that there is peace in Assam too," he said.

"Hindus are peace-loving. They do not indulge in rioting. Hindus as a community do not even believe in jihad. The Hindu community will never indulge in rioting," Mr Sarma claimed.

The extraordinary statement flew in the face of convictions following the 2002 Gujarat riots, in which over 1,000 people were killed in the three-day violence, with over 800 of them Muslims. The riots began after a train coach carrying Hindu pilgrims was burnt in Godhra, killing 59 people.

Love Jihad A Reality, True Of Shraddha Walkar Case: Himanta Sarma

New Delhi: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma asserted today that "love jihad" is a "reality" and has been established by the grisly murder of Shraddha Walkar in Delhi. Mr Sarma has earlier spoken of the issue in the context of the murder, insisting that the country needs a strict law against "love jihad" -- a term coined by the right wing to describe many inter-faith relationships.

In an exclusive interview to NDTV today, Mr Sarma said that "love jihad is a reality from a national point of view". "There is evidence of love jihad (in the Walkar case)... even in Aaftab's polygraph test, it is said that he revealed that his actions will take him to jannat (heaven). There are reports on it," Mr Sarma told NDTV.

Mr Sarma had made the assertion two days ago as well, telling the Times Now Summit that there was an "element of love jihad" in the murder.

A section of the right wing contends that Muslim boys lure Hindu girls into relationships in a planned manner to ensure their religious conversion.

But in February 2020, the Union Home Ministry had told parliament that the term is not defined under existing laws and no case has been reported by any Central agency -- officially distancing itself from the term.

"That is a question we are asking now to define the term Love jihad because we are convinced that love jihad exists even when you conduct a polygraph test," Mr Sarma told NDTV, citing Aaftab Poonawala's comment on jannat.

"Love jihad is very important even for Assam. Love jihad is when love is used with specific purposes in mind and when these purposes are not met, you get cases like Shraddha," he said.

Mr Sarma also insisted that his statement did not have a communal slant. "For you it is a communally-loaded statement, for any left-liberal, it is a communally loaded statement. But for me, this statement was made in national interest," he said.

The horrific killing of 26-year-old Shraddha Walkar and the planned disposal of her body by her boyfriend Aaftab Poonawala has shocked the nation. The matter has become controversial because of the religious divide between the two and the woman's estrangement from her father over the relationship.

Last month, a union minister blamed "educated girls" who leave their parents and opt for live-in relationships, drawing a storm of protests.

Contending that live-in relationships lead to crime, Union minister Kaushal Kishor said, "These incidents are happening with all those girls who are well educated and think they are very frank and have the ability to take decisions about their future".

BJP Set For Landslide Win In Gujarat, Predict Exit Polls

New Delhi: The BJP is set for a record sweep in Gujarat -- the state it has been ruling since 1995 -- seven exit polls have predicted, beating all concerns about possible anti-incumbency and shrinking numbers of the party. The Congress will finish second, and Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party -- which conducted a high-pitch campaign -- will open account in the state, the exit polls predicted.

An aggregate of the exit polls indicate that the BJP could win 132 seats -- a little short of the 140-seat target set by the party's chief strategist Amit Shah. The party won only 99 seats in 2018, its lowest score in nearly three decades and just seven above the halfway mark.

The Congress-Nationalist Congress Party combine would win 38 seats and AAP – eight, shows NDTV's Poll of Exit Polls, supporting speculation that that AAP's entry could cut into Congress votes.

Exit polls, though, can often get it wrong.

If they got it right, this would be the BJP's best showing in Gujarat, even beating the score of the 2002 election, held after the post-Godhra riots. That year, the BJP had won 127 seats, with a 48.5 per cent vote share.

The Republic TV-P MARQ has predicted the highest score -- 128-148 -- for the BJP. The Congress-NCP, it predicted will win between 30 and 42 seats -- down from the 77 they won last time. AAP, it said, will get between 2 and 10 seats.

Data from News X- Jan Ki Baat shows 117-140 seats for the BJP, 34-51 for the Congress and 6-13 seats for AAP.

TV9 Gujarati predicts 125-130 seats for the BJP, 40-50 for the Congress and 3-5 seats for AAP.

Besides a dismal showing for AAP despite its voluble campaign highlighting the Delhi model of governance, the exit polls have predicted a comedown for the Congress, which upped its game remarkably in 2018, confining the BJP to less than 100 seats.

That time, Rahul Gandhi had led the campaign from the front. This time, the senior Congress leader had barely set foot in Gujarat, breaking away from his Bharat Jodo Yatra for a day to hold just two rallies in the state.

The Congress, which lost Ahmed Patel, its pointsman in Gujarat to Covid, held a lacklustre campaign, which according to exit polls, has failed to sway the voters.

Bucking the trend in BJP-ruled Himachal Pradesh, all exit polls have also predicted a BJP victory there. Himachal Pradesh traditionally votes out the incumbent.

In Delhi's civic elections, held last week, the exit polls predicted a massive victory for the AAP after three consecutive terms by the BJP.

Arvind Kejriwal On AAP's Performance In Gujarat: "Breached BJP Fortress, Will Win Next Time"

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday thanked the people for helping the AAP "breach the BJP's fortress" in Gujarat and asserted that the party would win the state the next time.

In a video message, Mr Kejriwal said though the AAP did not win many seats in Gujarat, the votes it secured helped it attain the status of a national party.

The AAP won five seats and secured a vote share of 12.92 per cent in the Gujarat assembly elections, as declared by the State Election Commission.

"I am thankful to the people of Gujarat for helping us attain the status of national party. Very few parties enjoy the status and now we are one of them. Ours is only a 10-year-old party," the Delhi chief minister said.

Already recognised as a state party in Delhi, Punjab and Goa, the AAP was just one state away from earning the status of national party. Having opened its account in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state, the party will attain national status.

To earn the status of a national party, a political outfit needs to be recognised in at least four states. It needs to win at least two seats and 6 per cent of the votes polled in the assembly election to be recognised as a state party.

"Your AAP is a national party now. Gujarat's people have made it a national party. On the basis of votes polled in Gujarat, legally AAP is now a national party," Mr Kejriwal added.

The AAP fielded candidates on all 182 assembly seats in an attempt to breach the BJP's Gujarat bastion, conducting a high-decibel campaign in the run-up to the polls.

The party positioned itself and its national convenor Mr Kejriwal as the sole challenger to the BJP and Prime Minister Modi, respectively.

Gujarat is considered to be a fortress for the BJP and the people of the state helped the AAP make a dent in it, he said.

"Gujarat is considered (to be a) BJP stronghold. We have polled around 13 per cent votes. There are so many people who have trusted us, voted for us for the first time. This time, we breached the fortress and next time, with your blessings, we will win it," he said.

Arvind Kejriwal also said leaders of his party did not indulge in a campaign of mudslinging or abusive politics but spoke about positive things and the work done by it in Delhi and Punjab.

"We only spoke about the work done by us in Punjab and Delhi and how, if we get an opportunity in Gujarat, we will work for the people. This differentiates us from other parties.

"In the last 75 years, politics has revolved around caste, mudslinging and religion. But we spoke about issues that affect the common man," he said.

Calling it an amazing feat, Mr Kejriwal said people were shocked to know that the party achieved national party status in such a short time.

"People are amazed by this achievement. I have learnt a lot from you and received a lot of love and respect. I am indebted to you," he said in the message.

Reiterating that they were "imaandar" and honest people, Arvind Kejriwal asked party activists to rest for a few days and then return to serving the people of Gujarat.

AAP senior leader and Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said it was the first time that the politics of education and health was making a mark in the country.

The AAP had on Wednesday ended the BJP's 15-year tenure in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi -- trifurcated in 2012 into north, south and east corporations and unified this year -- by winning 134 seats while restricting the BJP to 104 seats. Mr Kejriwal had shuttled between Gujarat and Delhi to campaign for the party.

AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh echoed Mr Kejriwal's sentiment.

"Gujarat is called the fortress of PM Modi and (Union Home Minister) Amit Shah. CM Arvind Kejriwal has breached their fortress today.

"Ten years ago AAP was formed, till now the people of Delhi formed our government thrice in Delhi and now we have our government in Punjab also," he added.

Gopal Rai, the AAP's Delhi unit convenor, said it would no longer have to struggle for the party symbol after attaining the status of a national party.

"Till now, we had to struggle for our symbol but after getting the status of a national party, the 'jhaadu' (broom) symbol will be reserved for the AAP across the whole country.

"With people of Gujarat ensuring locking-in of the 'jhaadu' symbol for the Aam Aadmi Party, the time has come to wield the broom throughout the nation," he said.

The AAP had contested the 2014 Lok Sabha and the 2017 assembly elections in Gujarat with most of its candidates securing fewer votes than the None Of The Above (NOTA) option, according to official figures.

It stayed away from the state during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

The BJP posted a historic victory in Gujarat, winning 150 seats and leading in another six in the 182-member assembly. The Congress finished second, winning 17 seats, while the AAP won five seats. Independent candidates won three seats and the Samajwadi Party picked up one.

BJP's Rivaba Jadeja, Cricketer Ravindra Jadeja's Wife, Wins Gujarat Seat

Rivaba Jadeja, the wife of cricketer Ravindra Jadeja, and the Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from the Jamnagar North constituency in the Gujarat Assembly elections, has won with over 57 per cent vote share. Aam Aadmi Party's Karshanbhai Karmur, with 23 per cent votes, was her closest competitor, and Bipendrasinh Chatursinh Jadeja from Congress came third with 15.5 per cent votes.

A relative of Congress veteran Hari Singh Solanki, Rivaba Jadeja joined the BJP in 2019, three years after marrying into a family mostly of Congress supporters. Earlier, her father-in-law had appealed to people to vote for the Congress in a video that went viral. Her sister-in-law Naynaba Jadeja, a Congress leader, also campaigned for her party candidate.

Naynaba Jadeja, her sister-in-law, had said it's not "Jadeja versus Jadeja" in Jamnagar as there were many families like this in Jamnagar with ideological differences.

"My love for my brother stays the same. My sister-in-law is a BJP candidate as of now. As a sister-in-law she is good," she had said.

"In our family, we have freedom. Our family members can do whatever they want to do. They have the right to do that," added Naynaba Jadeja.

Soon after her father-in-law's video emerged, Rivaba Jadeja had brushed off speculation of a feud within the family and had said her husband backed her.

Jamnagar North voted in the first round of the Gujarat elections.

The BJP is all set for a massive victory, with a record seventh consecutive term in office. The BJP is ahead in 158 seats in Gujarat, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's homestead.

The record was earlier held by the Congress, which won 149 seats in the 1985 state polls.

Mumbai: Govt initiates probe against Uddhav Thackeray and family

In what could spell trouble for former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, the Maharashtra government informed the Bombay High Court on Thursday it has initiated preliminary enquiry against the Shiv Sena (UBT) chief and his family following a complaint alleging that they hold disproportionate assets (DA).

A division bench of Justices Dheeraj Thakur and Valmiki Menezes is hearing a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking a probe by Central agencies against the family for allegedly owning assets beyond their known sources of income.

The PIL was filed by Gouri Bhide, 38, whose family was in the publishing business like the Thackerays, who publish Marmik magazine and the daily Saamna. Ms Bhide had prayed for a thorough and impartial probe by the CBI and the ED.

After a brief hearing in the morning session,the bench reserved the PIL for order. However, public prosecutor Aruna Kamat Pai mentioned the PIL in the afternoon sessions to inform the court about the state government’s stand.

Ms Bhide, who had earlier sent a letter to Mumbai Commissioner of Police regarding her allegations, said she had not been informed about any such inquiry.

Earlier, counsels for Thackerays, Aspi Chinoy and Ashok Mundargi, had opposed the plea calling it “absolutely bereft of any material” and filed purely on“assumptions”.

BJP MP Wants His Development Funds To Be Used For Bhajans In Temples

Ballia's BJP MP Virendra Singh Mast has directed officials to use his MPLADS fund for organising "bhajan-kirtans" at temples, an unorthodox use of a fund meant for development work at the constituency level.

The ruling party MP said he took the decision to generate "spiritual awakening".

Mr Mast instructed that all "small and large temples" located in the district's municipal council area should be surveyed, and arrangements made for "bhajan-kirtan" (devotional songs) and procuring musical instruments, the district information department said.

In a directive to district officials on Sunday, the politician said his Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLAD) fund can be used if there is a problem in organising "bhajan-kirtans" and arranging musical instruments for the temples.

Under the MPLADS, MPs have ₹ 5 crore at their disposal every year. They suggest to the district collector the development projects on which the money should be spent.

The MPs have to follow guidelines on using the fund, meant essential for development work and building durable assets for the community. For example, the MPs often use them on projects like building roads, schools and clinics.

Mr Mast, a four-term Lok Sabha MP, is said to be a deeply religious person who offers prayers twice a day.

Explaining his decision, he said, "In the current scenario, traditional values are disappearing." So "bhajans" and "kirtans", and the use of musical instruments for them, will boost cultural and religious activities, he argued. He said this will generate a "adhyatmik sanchetna", or spiritual awakening.

Shiv Kumar Mishra, chairman of the managing committee of the Bhrigu temple in Ballia lauded the MP's efforts.

Satya Prakash Singh, the Executive officer of Ballia Nagar Palika, on Monday told PTI that a survey of temples will start soon.

The MP said a corridor dedicated to sage Bhrigu is being built by the Yogi Adityanath government in Ballia.

Members of India’s main opposition Congress party and thousands of supporters walked into the capital on Saturday as part of a 5-month-long cross-country “unity march” seeking to challenge what they say is a “hate-filled” version of the country under the Hindu nationalist government.

Joined by thousands of party workers and senior leaders, the march led by Rahul Gandhi, an opposition leader of the Congress party and scion of the influential Gandhi family, entered New Delhi after passing through eight states.

Flanked by his mother, Sonia Gandhi, and sister, Priyanka Gandhi, the 52-year-old leader said that the motive of his long walk across the length of the country is to revive the once-mighty Congress party and showcase the “real India” unlike the “hate-filled version” offered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"They will spread hate. We will spread love,” Gandhi said, referring to Modi’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party.

Gandhi set off for the “Bharat Jodo Yatra,” or “Unite India March,” in Kanyakumari, a coastal town that is the southernmost tip of India, on Sept. 7. The march, which is broadcast live on a website, is expected to traverse 3,570 kilometers (2,218 miles) and cross 12 states before finishing in Indian-controlled Kashmir by February.

Passing through hundreds of villages and towns, the march has attracted farmers worried about rising debt, students complaining about increasing unemployment, civil society members and rights activists who say India's democratic health is in decline. Along the way, Gandhi has also shed his formerly clean-shaven look for a thick beard and slept in shipping container cabins during night halts.

In multiple impassioned speeches during the march, Gandhi has often targeted Modi and his government for doing very little to address the growing economic inequality in India, the rising religious polarization, and the threat posed by China. The armies of India and China are locked in a bitter standoff in the mountainous Ladakh region since 2020. Despite over a dozen rounds of talks at military, political and diplomatic levels, the standoff has protracted.

Modi's party has dismissed Gandhi's march and speeches as a political gimmick to regain his “lost credibility.”
 
"Road, Sewage Minor Issues": Karnataka BJP MP Wants Focus On "Love Jihad"

Bengaluru: The BJP's Karnataka chief has advised his party workers to focus on fighting "love jihad" instead of "minor issues" like road and sewage problems.

Nalin Kateel, a BJP MP, made the comments at a party meeting on Monday in Karnataka, where elections are due later this year.

"I am asking you people - don't speak about minor issues like road and sewage. If you are worried about your children's future and if you want to stop 'love Jihad', then we need BJP for that. To get rid of love jihad, we need BJP," Mr Kateel said in a pep-talk for booth-level workers of the party.

Well done sanghi.

And this guy is no MLA or a councilor. He is a Member of Parliament for god's sake!
 
Finally, sanghis have admitted it themselves that all they care about is how to make Hindus & Muslims fight amongst themselves and not development.
 
And so, after walking over 3200km from Kanyakumari to Jammu & Kashmir, Rahulg looks a bit like Forrest Gump, but what an achievement. The pure physicality of it and his evolution as a leader with a people connect is crazy. I think I might be losing some interest in him, because he is no longer the underdog.

Nice speech at J&K. And without a teleprompter :modiji

At least six people were injured on Saturday in two blasts in India-occupied Jammu, police said, ahead of the arrival of opposition leader Rahul Gandhi on a cross-country march.

The blasts hit Jammu’s transport yard in the Narwal area, said regional police chief Mukesh Singh, as security has been heightened with Gandhi’s march expected to reach the city on Monday.

Thousands have joined his march against “hate and division”, which aims to turn the leftist Congress party’s fortunes around after its drubbing by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party in a 2019 election.
 
'Ideology of BJP Should Be Considered Ideology of Country': Law Minister Rijiju

Rijiju replied, “You know what the government’s ideology is. We want the ideology of our party to be considered the ideology of the country.”

This statement by the law minister led to an uproar in the Lok Sabha, to which Rijiju retorted, “I am proud of this.”

How PM’s Mumbai visit sets agenda for Shinde’s Sena — ‘we are all Modi’s men’

In his speech at an event on Thursday, Shinde spoke about how his “mind is filled with pure emotions” when he sees and meets Modi.

The CM spoke about his visit to Davos for the World Economic Forum meeting earlier this week, saying how leaders of all countries were only enquiring about Modi.

“Many PMs, presidents, some ministers, all of them were only asking about Modi saheb. The PM of Luxembourg met me and said ‘I am Modiji’s bhakt (fan)’. He took a picture with me and said ‘show this photo to Modiji’. Some people from Germany and Saudi Arabia met me. They said, ‘You are with Modiji, right?’ I said, ‘We are all his men’,” Shinde said.

Had he been as devoted to cause of his constituents as he is to feku, they might have a better place to stay in!
 
Modi had the national vote, but his aura is dimming with the continued blunders and most recently, the exposés on his lies about China and also the Adani group's alleged fraud.

Some much-needed perspective among all the Godi media chaos.

The Animal Welfare Board of India has appealed to people to celebrate ‘Cow Hug Day’ on February 14 to spread positive energy and encourage collective happiness, said officials on Wednesday.

“All cow lovers may celebrate February 14 as Cow Hug Day keeping in mind the importance of mother cow and making life happy and full of positive energy," the notice read.

It further stated that hugging cows will bring "emotional richness" and increase "individual and collective happiness".

“Vedic traditions are almost on the verge of extinction due to the progress of Western culture and that the dazzle of western civilization has made our physical culture and heritage almost forgotten," it added.

This cow rejected the love though. Liked the way he waved his hand in a disappointed 'Let's go' way at the end :))

India: Economy growing fast amid financial gloom

The Indian economy is expected to grow 6.9 % in the 2023 fiscal year, the World Bank has forecast. But despite economic growth, India still has one of the highest levels of income inequality in the world.

India will be the fastest-growing economy among the seven largest emerging markets and developing economies, despite a challenging external environment, said the World Bank in its global economic prospects report.

A decade ago, India's GDP was the 11th largest in the world. Today, India's economy is the fifth largest, according to the International Monetary Fund, overtaking the British economy.

At the World Economic Forum in Davos last month, corporate chiefs put the growth down to a combination of a stable political environment and significant government investments in infrastructure that were fostering a positive environment for growth in India.

Though India bounced back strongly from the coronavirus pandemic, the country is grappling with the same headwinds buffeting the global economy, according to the Center for Monitoring Indian Economy think tank.

"India is large and diverse and during the pandemic, India's agricultural sector did quite well where the government interventions were measured and well directed," Mahesh Vyas, the think tank's CEO, told DW.

"The corporate sector did very well in a protected environment, although medium and small scale industries suffered. What's more, controls and interventions have helped keep inflation in check," said Vyas.

How has India's economy stayed afloat?

The World Bank stated in its "Navigating the Storm" report in November 2022 that India's economy is "relatively insulated from global spillovers compared to other emerging markets. This is partly because India has a large domestic market and is relatively less exposed to international trade flows."

Sri Lanka, for instance, is still in the midst of an economic crisis. The IMF provided the island nation with a loan of $2.9 billion (€2.7 billion) in September.

The cash-strapped Pakistani government, meanwhile, increased petrol and gas prices to a historic high this week to appease the IMF for an early release of a $1.1 billion loan tranche of a $6.5 billion bailout deal.

The World Bank has warned the global economy will come "perilously close" to a recession this year, led by weaker growth in all the world's top economies including the US and China.

"India's economy has been remarkably resilient to the deteriorating external environment, and strong macroeconomic fundamentals have placed it in good stead compared to other emerging market economies," said Auguste Tano Kouame, the World Bank's country director in India.

"However, continued vigilance is required as adverse global developments persist."

India, like many other countries in the world, has not been exempt from multiple external shocks in the form of COVID related global supply chain disruptions, a food and energy crisis following the ongoing war in Ukraine and financial market volatility.

Challenge of rising current account deficit

Lekha Chakraborty, professor and chair at India's National Institute of Public Finance and Policy, told DW that India's "macroeconomic fundamentals are strong."

According to Chakraborty, India is facing a challenge as its current account deficit (CAD) is rising. CAD is a measurement of a country's trade, where the value of the goods and services it imports exceeds the value of the products it exports.

"So far, we have been financing CAD with capital inflows," she said.

The current account includes net income, such as interest and dividends, and transfers, such as foreign aid.

"Now with the increase in interest rates by US Fed Reserve, there is capital flight. However, the Reserve Bank of India has increased the interest rate to tackle the capital flight and mounting inflation," said Chakraborty.

India still has one of world's highest levels of income inequality

Rumki Majumdar, director of Deloitte India, believes India has huge potential as an export hub and as an investment destination in the manufacturing and services sector. Recent trade agreements have been aimed at integrating the manufacturing sector with the global supply chain.

"Consequently, there has been a healthy rise in foreign direct investment (FDI) equity flows from Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates in the fiscal year 2022–23, even as FDI from the United States fell," Majumdar told DW.

"This points to a rising confidence among global investors to invest in India and the inflows are becoming more diversified."

Majumdar also pointed out that high goods and services tax and direct tax collections have provided the government ammunition to cushion the impact of the impending global slowdown and keep the economy buoyant.

However, Chakraborty of the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy stressed that despite economic growth, India still has one of the highest levels of income inequality in the world.

"The post-COVID fiscal and monetary strategies are crucial for sustained growth recovery. When we say India is doing well, we must ask the question for whom? The widening inequality is a matter of grave concern and requires immediate policy attention," she said.

Haryana Govt Defends Dera Chief Ram Rahim's Parole In HC; 'He's Not A Serial Killar'

The Haryana government on Wednesday, March 3 defended the parole of Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh saying he is 'not a serial killer' and his conviction in two different murder cases 'cannot be termed as serial killing'.

In an affidavit filed against the petition of Gurmeet Ram Rahim in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, the Haryana government mentioned that Ram Rahim is not a serial killer and his convictions cannot be termed as serial killing.

Wherever there are hardcore criminals, there are sanghis vehemently defending them.

No wonder crime rate has gone steeply upwards ever since they got power.
 
No mention of Manish Sisodia, Satyendra Jain and the corruption of AAP party from usual pretenders. All maintaining pedestrian distance :srini

So much for India Against Corruption, Anna Hazare and 2011.

Oh how he fooled gullible Indians :))

#ChorMachayeShor
 
Only guy Hazare benefitted was feku who got a backdoor entry into Delhi politics on the backs of Hazare and Kejriwal.

For this reason alone, feku should always be indebted to Anna and Kejriwal.
 
The gall some people have in totally side stepping a hardcore criminal like this fake baba.

Why would they care though? After all this criminal gets sanghis votes in Haryana and Punjab.

Btw, when are such people returning to India as Ramraj has now been firmly established under their beloved feku.

Who said India is a democracy?

There you go. Questioning India's democracy just because a person you don't like is in power. Did you question India's democracy when AAP came to power in Punjab or the Congress won in HP? I bet not.

Typical anarchist leftist approach - support a system when it benefits you, but question it when it goes against you.

And Indian leftists keep wondering why no one votes for them!

Well don't you know it's the NRIs that keeps voting BJP and Modi into power not the Indians that live in India 😂

Also it is a conspiracy when ppl say BJP has no competition, it is pure false news as we all know Indians in India will vote for ammayi Sonya's son Raul Puppu in 2024.

Imagine witnessing the glorious sight of Raul Puppu representing Indians as their PM in 2024
🤣.

While the party has managed to open its account in Meghalaya and Tripura, it has failed to win any seat in Nagaland.
Five years back in 2018, the Congress had failed to win any seat in Tripura and Nagaland.

Now that is a great post. I write too many stuffs but seldom articulate the way you did here. Its a total knockout punch, similar to the one Micheals gave to Hulk Hogan in Wrestlemania 23.

Congress wiped out from Northeast states, wins just 8 seats out of 180 in three states.

In a major blow to the Congress party, it has been wiped out from the recent Northeast elections, winning only 8 out of 180 seats. The party won 5 seats in Meghalaya, 0 seats in Nagaland and 3 seats in Tripura. This is a significant downfall for the party as it won 21 seats in Meghalaya and zero seats in Nagaland in the 2018 elections.

The Congress party's much-hyped 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' led by Rahul Gandhi, which aimed to unify the country, failed to bring in any significant change in the party's performance. The party's chief Mallikarjun Kharge heralded the beginning of a new Congress in the 85th plenary session of the Congress party that concluded recently, but the election results indicate otherwise.


The Congress party has been losing power in many states, including Uttar Pradesh, Goa, Manipur, Punjab, Uttarakhand, and Gujarat in 2022. Although the party is still in power in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, retaining these states in the upcoming elections will be a significant challenge. In Rajasthan, the open power tussle between Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and senior leader Sachin Pilot threatens to derail the party's poll prospects, while in Chhattisgarh, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel faces tough competition from his rivals.

The assembly by-election results today brought some solace for the Congress as it wrested one seat each from the BJP and the TMC in Maharashtra and West Bengal respectively and retained a seat in Tamil Nadu with DMK's support, while the BJP and its ally AJSU bagged one seat each in the western state and Jharkhand.

The ruling Trinamool Congress in West Bengal suffered a shock defeat in Sagardighi which was won by Congress' Bayron Biswas by 22,986 votes. It is the only seat held by the Congress in the state assembly.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee alleged the Congress and the CPI(M) had entered into an understanding with the BJP to defeat the Trinamool Congress with their "immoral" alliance.

Ms Banerjee also said that her party will go it alone in the 2024 elections, "with the support of common people" and the Congress should refrain from calling itself anti-BJP.

"For the Sagardighi loss, I do not blame anyone... But, there is an immoral alliance, which we strongly condemn. The BJP transferred its votes to the Congress.... everyone played the communal card. The BJP, of course, played the communal card. The Congress, CPI(M), however, turned out to be bigger players in this regard," she told reporters By-election to the constituency, seen as a prestige fight for state Congress president Adhir Chowdhury in his home district of Murshidabad, was necessitated following the death of state minister Subrata Saha in December last year.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) managed to hold on to Chinchwad seat in Maharashtra's Pune but suffered a setback as it failed to Kasba Peth Assembly seat, its stronghold in the district, as Congress candidate Ravindra Dhangekar defeated the saffron party nominee Hemant Rasane.

The BJP held the seat for 28 years. Girish Bapat, the current BJP MP from Pune, represented the seat five times till 2019.

Mr Dhangekar, who was supported by Maha Vikas Aghadi allies Nationalist Congress Party and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray), polled 73,194 votes while Rasane received 62,244 votes, as per figures on the Election Commission's website after the final round of counting.

While the party's performance was dismal in the assembly poll in Tripura, Nagaland and Meghalaya , Congress general secretary communications Jairam Ramesh said the bypoll results were "very encouraging".

"We are building the Congress for the future and those who thought they will make it big by breaking the Congress have not achieved any success," Mr Ramesh said in an apparent dig at TMC.

The bypolls saw the first direct contest between the ruling BJP-Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena and the opposing MVA after the change of government in Maharashtra in June last year.

As the bypolls had become an issue of prestige for the MVA as well as the ruling Shinde-BJP coalition in the state, senior leaders like NCP president Sharad Pawar, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis campaigned for their respective candidates.

In Chinchwad seat, BJP's Ashwini Jagtap was ahead with 1.12 lakh votes against NCP's Nana Kate who had bagged around 84,000 votes. The election commission was yet to formally declare the result at 9 pm.

The byelection was necessitated due to the death of incumbent BJP MLAs Mukta Tilak (Kasba) and Laxman Jagtap (Chinchwad).

Ruling DMK-backed Congress nominee EVKS Elangovan won in the Erode East byelection, with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin terming it a public endorsement of the "Dravidian model of governance" of his 22-month-old government.

Raul Puppu: 'If democracy suddenly disappeared in Europe, you would be shocked and you would be like, oh my god that would be a massive blow to democracy'

"Rahul Gandhi Sought Europe, US Intervention In India": BJP Hits Out
Rahul Gandhi had questioned at an event in London "why Europe and the US, the defenders of democracies, were oblivious of how a huge chunk of democracy in India had come undone".

Rahul Gandhi's comment in London that India's democracy "has come undone" has provoked a backlash with the ruling BJP accusing him of "shaming the country" on foreign soil by "seeking foreign intervention".
"BJP would like to emphatically state with great agony that Rahul Gandhi, in his speeches, has sought to shame India's democracy, polity, parliament, political system and judicial system," said BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad, accusing the Congress leader of telling lies.

Rahul Gandhi had questioned at an event in London "why Europe and the US, the defenders of democracies, were oblivious of how a huge chunk of democracy in India had come undone".

The BJP said Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and his predecessor Sonia Gandhi owed a clarification on the comments.

There's no point blaming Puppu here. The speech clearly wasn't written by him.
He can't write 'Jack and Jill went up the hill...' without typos.
It is very clear that Rahul Gandhi is merely the front office for someone/something else. It is who/what is controlling him that should worry Indian voters.
If he does become PM (God forbid), the office of the PM of India will be run by remote control from somewhere else.

All the indications of his being a puppet are there and are clearly visible. And Indian voters have seen through this.
 
:))) Rahulg sets BJP tails on fire every time he speaks nowadays. Poor Modi - only gets entertained by people looking to make money out of India. No one with the shred of a little intellectualism will want that uncouth, unscientific, small-thinking apology. speaking at any place that has a reputation to protect.

Also love reading how the bhakts proudly flaunt their inability to understand a simple English sentence and instead actually guffaw over it. You must be a special kind of stupid to do that :shezzy2 Makes me wonder how these people survive in English-speaking Western countries.

And Indian voters have seen through this.

Yes. Indian voters will decide. Not you :)

There are leaders and ministers in the BJP whose employment is solely based on how much they troll Rahulg. Then of course there are those who earn their Rs2/tweet, some of whom seem to be earning their living on this site too.

But the real reason the BJP have been going after Rahulg, apart from the insane jealousy and pain they're experiencing as they watch their Adani-constructed worlds crumble, is to cover up little news items like this.

Only the best comics could come up with something like that. Until you realize it actually happened and wasn't a joke :(
 
The struggle is real when you have to write posts after posts with multiple meaningless smileys to convince people to somehow take a clown prince seriously.

In a country of 1.5 billion where most hard worker don't get second chance, this joker is getting chance after chance to somehow redeem himself even though he failed in every electoral battle since 2014. That is the privelge right there.

Yeddy was corrupt. But he seems like a fakir-aadmi :)) compared to Bommai.

Coastal belt is polarized in favor of BJP beyond repair. Some of it perhaps justified. Northern Karnataka is shaky for them. Lingayat vote may be split.

But honestly, I have no idea. People kind of deserve the people they elect. So, if after all that's happened, they still want the BJP, let them have it :apology

Modi has once said that he was 'undereducated' and 'never went to college'. But he changed his stance later for reasons unknown. He said he had a BA from Delhi University (School of Opening Learning) and an MA in 'entire political science' from Gujarat University.

The politics of these claims was laid open when Arun Jaitley and Amit Shah appeared before television cameras in May 2016 showing computer-generated mark sheets of Modi, a facility that was technologically not possible during Modi's presumed university days.

RTI activist Neeraj Sharma's attempt to get full details (list of students, roll numbers, marks obtained) was blocked by Delhi University.

Court cases followed, leading to various legal complications. Normally, DU publishes examination results in detail online.

In 2017, Central Information Commissioner Acharyulu ordered DU to allow inspection of records.

Acharyulu was divested of his charge of the HRD ministry.

The to-ing and fro-ing turned it all into a farce with many saying that Modi was in fact an 8th standard pass (his 10th standard is disputed).

There you go.

Everything about the feku is fake and a lie.
 
"BJP World's Most Important Foreign Political Party": Wall Street Journal
"India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party is, from the standpoint of American national interests, the most important foreign political party in the world. It may also be the least understood," the Wall Street Journal piece read.

The BJP is the world's most important foreign political party and it may also be the least understood according to an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal authored by Walter Russell Mead.
"India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party is, from the standpoint of American national interests, the most important foreign political party in the world. It may also be the least understood," the WSJ piece read.

BJP, after successive victories in 2014, and 2019 is also headed for a repeat victory in 2024, the publication stated, adding that, India is emerging both as a leading economic power and, along with Japan, as the linchpin of American strategy in the Indo-Pacific.

"For the foreseeable future the BJP will be calling the shots in a country without whose help American efforts to balance rising Chinese power are likely to fall short," it added.

The author Mr Mead believes that BJP is poorly understood because it grows out of a political and cultural history unfamiliar to most non-Indians.

Sushma Swaraj’s daughter, Supreme Court advocate — who’s Bansuri, new co-convenor of Delhi BJP’s legal cell

Bansuri Swaraj, daughter of former external affairs minister and late Bharatiya Janata Party leader Sushma Swaraj, was appointed co-convenor of the BJP’s Delhi State Legal Cell Friday. An Oxford graduate, Bansuri has been a part of the legal profession for 15 years. Although she has been known to help the party informally in the past, it’s the first time she has been given an organisational post, in what is being seen as a sign of the BJP’s intent to involve her more in Delhi politics.

She was also appointed additional advocate general in Haryana by Manohar Lal Khattar in March 2021.
