[PICTURES/VIDEOS] Indian Politics - News & Updates Thread

Sanghis are obsessed with Pakistan, a fact even their hardcore bhakts can't deny.

Not the first time, Kejri proves to be a traitor.
 
So what will be the verdict tomorrow in Bihar elections? Will it go the way all exit pollsters have suggested or will they be proved wrong, not for the first time?
 
If Tejashwi wins tomorrow, it'll be a huge turnaround for him especially after what happened in LS elections. Even till May this year, he was butt of all kinds of jokes for being AWL during all these months despite Bihar assembly elections just round the corner.
 
At least initial trends favour MGB, 35-18 so far.
 
NDA 123 MGB 103. Huge turnaround over last few minutes....

Did Asaddudin Owaisi split Muslim votes for MGB?

Or did congress split the muslim votes for Owaisi.

Quite fascist and insult to democracy for congress to say that owaisi is splitting muslim votes, as if congress has the sole privilege and entitlement to muslim votes, and other parties should contest elections on congress terms.

Haha yeah sab pointless arguments ke liye accha hai.

By the way, splitting votes is used in relation to the party/alliance which isn't likely to clinch the power.

Had it been the other way around, then people would call congress as the vote splitter.

People would call, doesn't mean they are right. Even then it is insult to democracy.


My post was for the tweet you shared, which is insulting to not only democracy, but muslims as well.
 
AIMIM has been accused of this several times. Some say they even have a secret understanding with the BJP.

accused by sickulars, who don't respect democracy.

basically congress thinks that it has exclusive rights over muslims, and if muslims vote for any other party, then that party must be labelled vote katua or B team. It is all a grand conspiracy to keep the real rulers of india, the congress, out of power. AIMIM has done more for muslim rights than the congressi cretins have done.
 
Another Congress Flop Show Spoils Tejashwi Yadav-Led Alliance's Chances :))):)))

Congress contested 70 seats, looks like they cant even win 15 :))
 
NDA leads in 130 seats, but neck-and-neck fight on 55 seats; RJD says just wait for a turn-around
 
Bihar's people fell for free COVID vaccine: Congress
Congress' grievance cell chairperson Archana Dalmia admitted defeat in the Bihar Assembly elections and said that people of Bihar have fallen for the free vaccine gimmick of the BJP.

Pappu Army :))
 
Bihar phase-wise lead
Here's how the phase-wise lead stands in Bihar:

First phase:

NDA: 18 (-14)
MG: 49 (+12)
LJP: 1 (+1)
OTH: 3 (+1)
TOTAL: 71

Second phase:

NDA: 51 (+1)
MG: 41 (0)
OTH: 2 (+1)
TOTAL: 94

Third phase:

NDA: 57 (+14)

MG: 16 (-16)

LJP: 1 (+1)

OTH: 4 (+1)

TOTAL: 78
 
Over half of the votes, 2.12 crore counted now. NDA still leading at 133 seats.

24 seats where the margin is less than 1000
There are 24 seats in Bihar where lead is less than 1000.
Out of this the Mahagathbandhan is leading in 12 seats and the NDA is leading in 11 seats.
An Independent is leading in 1 seat.
 
This is a tight election. But its far from the wash out that was predicted by media. Bjp holding steady.

The amount of coverage Tejaswi got on leftist media and the way they projected him, didnt result in votes on the ground. Leftist media must understand that people have stopped believing their narrative.

They wont stop, they live in parallel world and believe pseudo seculars social media.
Reality is different.
 
AIMIM has been accused of this several times. Some say they even have a secret understanding with the BJP.

BJP's tact of using Asaduddin Owaisi's party in the Bihar elections has succeeded to an extent. All secular parties should be alert about vote cutter Owaisi Sahab

- Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury
 
The leads are changing by the minutes in the neck-and-neck race for control over Bihar Assembly.
The NDA, which had dropped below the magic number just 30 minutes ago, has made a come back and is now ahead on 126 seats (including wins).
The Mahagathbandhan is not too far behind with leads + win on 108 seats.
 
People would call, doesn't mean they are right. Even then it is insult to democracy.


My post was for the tweet you shared, which is insulting to not only democracy, but muslims as well.

Of course, it's their right.

But that doesn't change the reality that they cut the votes.

It's standard process of calling the weaker side (who has no chance of winning) as vote cutters regardless of who it is.

Another aspect is that the Muslims who voted for AIMIM neither got the desired change in the assembly....nor did they get the wins in the local constituencies.

So what were they left with?

An empty bag.

They got played. Plain and simple.
 
MGB has to fight tooth and nail to form a govt.

And even if they do, star performer Amit Shah will pull the rug from under them in a couple of months.

Kahe ko tension lene ka. :))

If MGB manages to form a govt and keep it, then that would be mighty impressive considering their dumpster fire performance.
 
RJD has performed very well contrary to what sanghis and their bhakts used to project about it just a month back. Congress, of course has brought MGB down.
 
Pitiable condition is of Chirag Paswan who I know was given far more airtime than he deserved. And what did he score despite contesting 140-odd assembly seats, a big FAT 0.

Paswan Sr, aka mausum vaigyanik will be grovelling in his grave.

Yeah but they could have done a lot better.

BJP still has a better strike rate than RJD when the latter had everything in it's favour.

He made Nitish grovel and that's all he cared about.

Had he won a few seats, BJP might have sidelined Nitish and struck a deal with him.
 
Can't blame AIMIM for contesting elections even though they may be responsible for cutting into MGB votes. This is democracy and anyone can contest elections.

Of course, they could have. But you can't be serious that they had everything in their favour.

Can't blame AIMIM but the Muslims who voted for them in a crucial election such as this....
 
MGB has no chance if it just scrapes by.
Agree with this. So called Chanakya (lol, those who call him Chanakya don't know what he stood for and what kind of politics he played) will use everything at his disposal to unseat them, has done this ever since Gujarati bigots have got power at Centre in 2014.

I am not even contesting that muslim votes got split. yes, that is a reality.

only point is that this is insult to democracy and muslims to treat them as their personal property when it comes to voting. If you want to debate this point, then welcome to see your answer.

your other point is very weak. muslims didn't vote for bjp also in many elections, so they didn't get their desired MPs and PM. So they should vote for bjp otherwise they get an empty bag.

Democracy is not about making the right choice, but it is about having a choice.

congressi cretins don't get it.
 
They had.

Covid.

Shamble economy.

Horrible handling of Bihari workers.

15 years of incumbency.

What more can any party ask for?
Then you forgot what we discussed on the first page of this thread.

Except for Covid, we had all these factors in play during last general elections as well. You know very well, what did our gullible electorate do in that election.

Reg Treating muslims as personal property.....agreed. They ain't one.

Reg insult to democracy...hardly. Calling vote split as vote split is calling spade a spade.

They can.

But in today's climate, it's a risky move.

If you wanna go the revolutionary route now when the said party has literally no chance to win enough seats, you are going to end up with nothing like 95% of the time.

Can they do it? Sure they can. It's their right.

But will it be good for them? Pretty much no.

Even the said Muslims who voted for AIMIM might be regretting it now...who knows lol.
 
If you think our electorate votes only on the basis of state of economy, development, employment etc then you're seriously mistaken, SIF.

We dind't have this big an economic issue nor was the job market so bad.

I never said that.

But there comes a point when those issues become too big to ignore.

It's not like RJD and MGB wouldn't have calculated their moves along caste and religious lines.
 
One thing is for sure, Congress needs to get it in its head that it is way past its prime and should not contest as many seats it does while being in alliance with a bigger regional party in a state election.

Next such election will be fought in TN.

SIF,

Your thoughts on Congress-DMK alliance?
 
Reg Treating muslims as personal property.....agreed. They ain't one.

Reg insult to democracy...hardly. Calling vote split as vote split is calling spade a spade.

But they are not saying that votes got split. They are saying "our votes were cut" by owaisi, and calling him B team of BJP.

You agree that treating muslims as their personal property is wrong, but you think it is not an insult to democracy. Nothing more to say.

DMK Congress ko ek phuti kaudi nahi degi. :))

Votes got split / they split our votes = pretty much the same = not an insult to democracy.

As for referring to a party as B team of someone else?

Maybe. It depends.

I haven't really thought about it to have a strong view.

Sometimes, some parties do end up becoming B team. Whether AIMIM is one or not, I dunno.

----

Not sure why you get so tangled up with these little details brother.

And yes, Congress thinks they are thekedaars of Muslim votes which is why they are getting owned so badly as BJP just flipped the script on their ***. lol.

Totally agree with you on that mentality tho.

In this case, AIMIM is really suspicious so I am not too sure.
 
AIMIM doesn't need to sweep elections. They only need to win around 8 seats. That is enough to be a kingmaker, and can give better deals to muslims than giving 50 seats to congress. Problem with congressi cretins is that they think they know what is good for muslims and muslims cant think for themselves. Sadly for them, muslims are smarter.

You are right.

It may happen this time who knows.

But becoming a king maker also involves a lot of luck.

If BJP had won it outright with LJP not sabotaging Nitish, it's back to zero.

I get that you have to start somewhere and maybe the ground realities were that Muslims were fed up with congress/RJD in which case, it would make sense to go for a different option.

But from a larger picture view, it defo is a risky move which is mostly going to end up resulting in nothing.

Question is....is the risk worth it right now?

If Muslims thought so, then so be it.
 
Someone has lost it and has started going down to the level of name calling voters.

Enjoying it to be honest.
 
Congratulations to Bihar , not understanding the power of changing diapers very Bengal like situation.
 
The tables have reversed once again as the BJP has once again raced ahead of RJD to become the single-largest party. With that the NDA lead has also grown to a more comfortable number of 126. But the Mahagathbandhan has refused to concede the polls yet.
 
Be it MP, Goa, Manipur, Karnataka or any other state, BJP runs series of horse-trading to come to power. Confident there'll be no such situation in Bihar. Situation on ground will be clear tomorrow & Mahagathbandhan will form govt with thumping majority.

Avinash Pandey, Congress (As reported by ANI)
 
RJD and BJP going neck to neck, with RJD slightly ahead as of now.

The equations can change quickly and a lot of horse-trading must already be underway. Those 32 independents and 'others' may play a key role.

Interesting to see what will happen in the next 24 hours.
 
Congratulations to Bihar , not understanding the power of changing diapers very Bengal like situation.
If they can't vote out the incumbent even now after what the bigot has done to them during lockdown then they deserve every bit of their misery in coming years.
 
Absolutely loving this. Liberal brothers were doing bhangra since the exit poll on friday about how Bihar rejected Modi :))

This may still be a hung parliament and even RJD can still form govt but this jubiliation based on exit poll was pretty short lived.

Even after 15 years of Nitish anti incumbency, it just took couple of Modi's rally to change the game.

BJP also swept by-poll elections in MP, UP, Gujrat.

So much more Modi being rejected...lol :))

Maybe the alternatives are not making themselves worthy.

I mean how could MGB lose this?

Surely blame must be placed on them.

Especially Congress.

I mean how do they even confidently ask for so many seats every single time?

Congress leadership (if one can call it one) is living in fool's paradise as are their alliance partners to give them so many seats. That's why instead of blaming Owaisi for cutting it's votes, Congress should seriously introspect that why it is such a laggard for so many years now.

I have come to believe 2 terms for everyone , also tbf they gave RJD 3 terms from 1990 , and it went downhill so not any great options for Biharis irrespective..

Almost seems like Biharis are loyalists.. they stick to one party for way too long..

RJD did very well on this election and credit must be given to Tejashwi Yadav. Such a young guy coming out of the shadows of his corrupt dad and taking on power houses like Nitish/Modi was not easy. So full marks to his campaign and hard work.

The blame goes to Congress and only congress. Even RJD is repenting now of giving so many seats to them. Had RJD fought on more seats, they could have won the election. Maybe its a stereotype but people of India just dont trust in congress anymore. They are slowly becoming a baggage for other regional parties too.

Tejashwi Yadav lost this election which he should have won due to Rahul Gandhi.

Nitish Kumar won this election which he should have lost due to Narendra Modi.
 
Would be hilarious if Owaisi makes inroads into Bengal now 🤣, should try TN as well.

Which media? Pseudo secular media. So called Liebarals believe their propaganda.
This is the ground reality :)))

Forget about North side.
BJP won Assembly bypoll in South India, Telangana where TRS and Congress are strong contestants.

BJP secured 62,772 votes, while the losing TRS candidate secured 61,302 votes. Congress, a distant third, bagged 21,819 votes :)):)):))

Few years back Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states were Congress forte, Congress ruled many years.

In 2019 Andhra Pradesh, NOTA got more votes than Congress and won zero. :91:
BJP is slowly gaining in Telangana, within few years BJP will replace congress as main opponents.
 
The usual bickering by congress and their stooges here alleging vote influencing and tampering by opposition and EC. Although RJD has done well, they are now alleging the same.
 
Why do the Congress members still put up with Rajmata and her son? They have lost election after election for at least half a dozen years now.

If you didn’t know otherwise you’d think that the Gandhis were on the payroll of the BJP and their mission was to completely destroy the Congress Party.
