@Nair saab ..

In my opinion Modi should contest from Lucknow not Varanasi... Seat of great Vajpayee jee... What you say..?

Lucknow is slightly risky ... APP has some ground there ... Varanasi is better with strong Hindu backing and a BJP stronghold ...

Apart from that ancient city much more older then Lucknow itself.. he can help this old city in a number of ways as been its MP ... while Lucknow doesnt need his help...

If Modiji is contesting from 2 seats one from Gujarat and one in UP then Lucknow can be a good option .. while if he contesting from just 1 seat then varanasi is best for him..

any ways I dont think BJP is gonna change its decision ... varanasi has been already decided ...

It won't be a tough task even if Modi is fielded from Lucknow. Lucknow has around 78% Hindu votes, roughly 20% Muslim votes (Majority of them Shias). There was an initial momentum (even that was minuscule) to AAP membership drive in LKO when Kejriwal came to power in Delhi with tall claims but his popularity has dipped now after being unable to face the challenge of governing Delhi.

Also, Shias are not anti Modi or anti BJP. They have voted for BJP in the past and Lalji Tandon shares good rapport with the Muslims there so that will work in favor of Namo.

The major concern politically will be the Lucknow's proximity to Ram Mandir. Modi has been trying to stay away from this issue upto this point during his 2014 campaign and standing from Lucknow may ignite the fire and bring this issue to fore.

So in my opinion, its not the possibility of winning from Lucknow (he is gonna win with thunderous majority if fielded there) but strategic decision to not field him there. BJP does not want "Ram Mandir" to come in the fore front again.

Vajpayee Jee used to get more that 50% votes from Lucknow. When Lalji Tandon was candidate, it dropped to around 33 %. WIth Modi as candidate and Shias rallying behind Modi, I expect the numbers to return back to 50%.

In Varanasi, the difference in last election was less than 50,000. I dont know how much more votes Modi can get from there.

आज गुजरात यूनिवर्सिटी की सेनेट की 8 सीटों में से 6 पर N.S.U.I. का ज्वलंत विजय....
वोटिंग के सहारे A.B.V.P. (अंधी बहरी विद्यार्थी परिषद) ने सिर्फ एक ही सिट जीती......
गुजरात की युवा शक्ति ही BJP के साथ नही है और कोंग्रेस के युवा नेतृत्व में जोरदार दम है वो सर्वसामान्य बात भी स्वीकारना रही........
कोंग्रेस एक डेमोक्रेटिक पार्टी है जिसमे से कोई भी लायक व्यक्ति नेता बन सकता है पर हमारी विपक्ष बीजेपी हिटलरशाही वाली पार्टी है जिसमे सिर्फ वन में शो चलता है जिसका नुकसान उनको भविष्य में नेतागिरी की खोट के रूप में होंगा ही....
कट्टर सोच नही, युवा जोश.........

Exactly Sir... Thats my point also.. How many guys voting for Secular-Socialists know what does Secularism or, Socialism mean..?
People need food + Job+ Security. Secularism and Socialism are just hollow slogans. I hope this time, voters do not fall for such gimmicks.

Lalji Tandon did not win as many votes in last elections as he should have. A probable cause was Brahmins drifting towards BSP in those days.

In Varanasi, I am not sure if not giving ticket to MM Joshi will not backfire. A tricky political situation. Modi will have to spend time in any of these two seats to win because all other parties are going to put all their strength to ensure his defeat. Even Kejriwal will camp there for whole time. I therefore dont think Varanasi is that good choice.

Meanwhile in Haryana, some 8-9 Congress MLAs are in talks with BJP and one of their leaders had a meeting with Rajnath Singh. Pretty interesting..

Rats jumping off sinking ship..?

On a serious note, Jharkhand and Haryana seems to be a bit slippery right now. In Jharkhand, AJSU and JVM must be brought into the fold. In Haryana, an understanding with Chautalas is must.
