Yes.. BJP gave one more MP and 5 MLA seats to TDP. So, now just MPs and 8 MLAs for BJP in Seemandhra.. Wonder if an alliance is needed for this paltry number.. This Prakash Javdekar is not suited for his job.

Bihar's 'Osama' to contest against Modi from Varanasi

Bihar's 'Osama' to contest against Modi from Varanasi - The Times of India


PATNA: Meraj Khalid Noor, popularly known as Bihar's Osama bin Laden due to his uncanny resemblance to the late al-Qaida leader, on Friday announced he would contest the Lok Sabha poll against BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi from Varanasi.

"I have decided to contest polls against Modi from Varanasi," said Noor, who is president of Ram India, a newly floated political outfit.

"After much thought I decided to fight against Modi," Noor said.

Patna-based Noor was once the darling of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and former chief minister Lalu Prasad and the Lok Janshakti Party's (LJP) Ram Vilas Paswan to woo Muslim voters. However, it is a different story now.

"I campaigned in the 2004 Lok Sabha polls for Paswan and in the 2005 assembly elections for Lalu," the businessman-turned-politician said.

He now complains that Lalu Prasad and Paswan "used me" to attract Muslim votes to their parties.

Noor is tall, well built and sports a long black beard. Like the now dead al- Qaida chief, he is always seen in white robes and a turban to match. The al-Qaida leader was gunned down by US commandos in his hideout in Pakistan in May 2011.

Noor admitted then it was his mere resemblance to the world's then most wanted man that was capitalized on as "I am neither a good speaker nor a leader with any support base".

In Patna and across Bihar, people don't know his real name. Everyone calls him bin Laden.

According to Salam Iraqi, one of his friends, Noor plunged into politics in 2004 when he sought ticket from Paswan's LJP to contest the assembly polls. His plea was turned down.

But Paswan asked Noor to campaign for his party and he would introduce him as "Osama bin Laden" at election rallies.

Noor switched over to the RJD in September 2005 and campaigned for Lalu Prasad.

He was so much in demand that Paswan and Lalu Prasad would invariably find a seat for him on their campaign helicopters, even if it meant dropping a senior party leader.

Noor is not a hardliner.

He is the grandson of Kazi Muzahidul Islam, former president of the Muslim Personal Law Board. His father, Noor Ahmad, was a close associate of veteran socialist leader George Fernandes.

Such was Noor's image that Narendra Modi once made a mention about him.

Late BJP leader Pramod Mahajan accused Lalu Prasad and Paswan in 2005 of glorifying "the most wanted terrorist in the world" by asking Noor to campaign for them.

This is Modi's backhand tactics - I wish

BJP would have been better off with a post poll alliance with any one of the parties in seemandhra.
They could have easily gone with either Jagan or TDP depending on who gets more seats.
Why are they hell bent on sticking with Naidu? They seem to avoid Jagan inspite of his eagerness to do business with BJP.

After Azam Khan said that ” Those, who defended Kargil, were not Hindus; they were Muslims.”, I thought it would be interesting to publish the list of those Indian soldiers who died in Kargil. My heart goes out to them; for it was the death of heroes in the face of impossible challenges, giving their lives for Mother India, which so many Indian intellectuals, journalists and politicians have so little love for.
