BJP's rising vote share in Bengal throws spanner to TMC, Left

Aftersecuring support of the Gorkha Janamukti Morcha(GJM), the BharatiyaJanata Party (BJP) is now confident of regaining at least its lone Darjeeling seat in West Bengal.

Whether a so-called Narendra Modiwave will help the saffron party to win a few more seats in the statemay stir up a debate, but a rising BJP in the state seems to begiving sleepless nights to TMC and Left.

Thealarm was raised for prominent political forces in West Bengal duringlast year's by-poll in Jangipur Lok Sabhaconstituency, where BJPsecured an 11% vote sharecompared three - four% inearlier polls in the area. Opinion polls and surveys too indicate BJPmay gain about a 10% vote share this Lok Sabha, which mayupset all political calculations.

TMC leaders admit, BJP could be a deciding factor in many closelycontested seats. "The recent by-poll does indicate that BJP's voteshare in the state is on the rise, perhaps it is not consolidatedenough to translate into seat. We have to see whose votes the BJPsnatches away more," a senior TMC leader said. As the common beliefis that BJP would get more of the anti-Left votes, TMC, which isgoing alone this time, has a cause for concern.

Perhapsthis is why, in a state like WestBengal where Muslims constitute around 25 percent of the population,TMC is working overtime to consolidate its minority voteshare,

Sofar as the minority support is concerned, the balance of politicalcalculations still seems to be favouring Mamata Banerjee's TrniamoolCongress. Sanction of 10,000 madrasas in West Bengal, establishmentof Aligarh Muslim University in WB, three Haj Towers in a row,declaration of second language status to Urdu in areas where the Urdu-speaking population is more than 10%, huge loan andsubsidy to the Muslim youths - there has been a lot in the offeringby the state government for minorities. She, in fact, went overboardas in case of declaring Rs 2,500 per month as Imam honorarium, which,however, was later stayed by a Calcutta High order.

CPI-Mcentral committee member Mohammad Salim acknowledges the reality, butpoints out, "By all these measures, TMC is actually making theBengal polity communal and BJP is taking advantage of this."

But ironically an increase of BJP's vote share is something CPI-M may behpoing for this election. Left believes it would take away more of TMC votes. "Electorally, BJP's increased vote share may benefitLeft only. Also in North Bengal, if TMC fields candidates in theCongress strongholds, we may trump the Congress to bag seats," saida senior CPI-M leader.

Everybody try to woo the minorities and in the process is alienating the majority .

And BJP is simply cashing out of it now ..... :D
Exactly! Minorities are spoiled for choice. too many flag bearers looking after their interest. & seems like majorities are feeling left out.. obviously BJP is the natural choice as they are the only one who talks about majority!

Citing silly excuses, Kejriwal refuses to vacate official bunglow
Days after Urban Development Ministry asked the Delhi Government to return the Tilak Lane flat allotted to former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the AAP leader has come out with an excuse, saying he would stay at his official residence till his daughter’s examination gets over by May.

Kejriwal, who resigned as CM, was alloted the three-bedroom C-II/23 flat at Tilak Lane in Lutyens Zone by the Urban Development in January as Delhi Government had made a request for a suitable accommodation in Central Delhi for its Chief Minister.

Public Works Department of the Delhi Government had sent a letter to Kejriwal asking him to vacate the house with immediate effect as he had already crossed the 15 days deadline till which a Minister can stay in his official residence after demitting the office, sources said.

Kejriwal had resigned from the Chief Minister’s post on February 14 and ideally should have vacated the house by March 1.

The PWD sent the letter to Kejriwal after the Urban Development Ministry had sent a notice to the Delhi Government to return C-II/23 flat at Tilak Lane, which had been allotted to Kejriwal while he was in office.

The PWD had not issued a notice to Kejriwal till March 8, more than a week after the expiry of 15 day grace period, probably fearing that if the same Government comes to power, it may create trouble for the concerned officials.

After 15 days, Ministers can choose to stay in the official residence for a maximum of six months, but are required to pay rent much higher than market rates.

In this case where Kejriwal wishes to extend his stay at the present location, he may have to pay 65 times more, which amounts to Rs 2.58 lakh per month.

Dissension Comes to Fore in AAP, Cry over PAC's Monopoly

It is apparent that dissension in Aam Admi Party (AAP), which took birth on the platform of anti-corruption, is brewing. On 12 March 2014, two senior leaders of AAP - Shazia Illmi and Kumar Vishwas have reportedly voiced their ire over the growing discrimination over the party's ticket distribution for the ensuing LokSabha election and monopoly of a few individuals in exercising powers in the party's key political affairs committee (PAC).

Illmi is the party's spokesperson and a familiar face of AAP on TV, while Vishwas is contesting from Amethi against Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi. Illmi is said to have been neglected by the party leadership when she asked for a ticket to contest the general election from Delhi. Instead, Illmi was supposedly asked to contest against Congress president Sonia Gandhi from Rae Bareli. However, on the face of it, the duo denied to have any discontent with the party leadership.

This is not the first time that displeasure has come to the fore in the common man's party. In Lucknow, AAP workers have been protesting against the party for giving ticket to a business man, Khalid Parvez from Moradabad, who owns a number of educational institutions. Khalid's name has been figured in the AAP's first list declared on 19 Februarty 2014. AAP workers' contention is that Khalid has been accused for not remitting a bank loan of ₹12 crore taken from Bank of Baroda.

It is reported that Vishwas has aired his dissent over AAP's leadership for not fielding party's top leaders against corrupt political leaders. Mainly the duo - Vishwas and Illmi have been said to have expressed their remorse over a few members of the party's PAC calling shots in the party affairs, which is against the party's participatory culture.

Even Ashok Agrawal, a founding member of AAP and national executive member of AAP, has left the party by accusing it of being run as a "private limited company." Ashok's contention was also that some affluent group of individuals have taken a central place in AAP.

Fueling to this, the party has organized a fund collection dinner function in posh hotels in Nagpur and Bangalore on 13 March and 15 March 2014, where those AAP supporters who want to dine with Aam Aadmi Party Convenor Aravind Kejriwal will have to pay a minimum donation Rs 10,000 to Rs 25,000.

But, the top AAP leadership, including Kejriwal, is yet to respond to mitigate the rising dissent in the party.

Oh well... looks like honeymoon period is well & truly over for AAPturds!

I'm pretty sure Shazia is going to stick around till Delhi polls .She will quit only if she does'nt get a ticket then.

Feeling sorry for Kumar Vishwas... I can't believe Kejri went to UP and did'nt even bother going to Amethi where a high profile leader of AAP is fighting. Heard that Vishwas is not getting much monetary help either from thier High command .

By the way has that self proclaimed saint of AAP mentioned the Pawars or Chavans at all in Mumbai? Or is he still obsessed with Modi?

You are welcome to do that mate.

Yes you heard it from me now get back to your usual spamming. . . :pop:

Oh thank you :cool::cool:

unless you give me credible info,i wont hold some one guilty
i am not chosing to oppose

you are alleging many things without any proof just bcoz the party you support says so.............i would rather believe in court decisions ............

1. Their Guruji says:

"And then about our family traditions and devotional practices. Whatever be our personal or family deities, we have to conduct its worship with great devotion and keep aglow our holy family traditions. How tragic it is to see these things disappearing nowadays! In the South, at least, we often see the Tulasi Brindavan in front of our houses. As dusk sets in, our mothers light a lamp in front of it. Often we, listen to the sweet sounds of bells in the pooja-griha and witness the devotional worship going on there. But in the North, this has become a rare sight to see. Modernism has verily banished God from our homes.

Modernism is taking the toll of many more of our cherished values of life. A couplet in Jnaneshwari says, A pious man spreads a cover of modesty over his good actions just as a virtuous lady covers her body. It describes the nature of virtuous womanhood. But modern women think that modernism lies in exposing their body more and more to the public gaze. What a fall!

It appears modernism has come to mean, in our country, only blind aping of the West and nothing else. In many of the modern families the children address their mothers as "mummy". Do we know what the word originally conveyed? In Egypt, there are massive cemeteries entombing their old kings. They are called pyramids. The corpses placed inside are called "mummies"! And here we address our living, loving mothers as mummies!""

2. They opposed Hindu code bill, which abolished polygomy and basic right to women like inheritance. It was Nehru who fought for this bill more than any other. In other words, RSS fought for Hindu men's right to polygamy, right to subjugate women. Today these are the same bunch of people who is bashing muslims!!! Also, today they are discussing fate of India if Nehru was not there!!!

3. Recently Bhagawat made comment about rape: It happens only in "India" not "Bharat". Men should work etc. All others defendeded him.

4. Ask what they want as Hindu consitution...They want Many smruti as the consititution. They fought for that through out...!

5. Golwalkar also led the Sangh in opposing the Hindu Code Bill (which was the first, and incomplete, step towards giving Hindu women equal rights to men), claiming that granting of rights to women would “cause great psychological upheaval” to men and “lead to mental disease and distress”
AIPWA (एपवा): RSS’ Views on Women

They are too confused people, Once side they are bashing muslims for having similar view and another side they want these implemented. But now they are not even have the guts to discuss this in public.
