A lot of people hedging their Bets against Modi , seems like a lot of foreign interference in these elections
That's true.. I can't recall a single Indian election where western media indulged in partisan reporting. But this time analysts & media are blatantly biased against Modi despite Modi being pro-business & pro investment. What is bothering them exactly?

How do you know it wasn't the case in the earlier ones?
As a foreign power (US,EU even China) my no 1 Priority will be to maintain status quo. Think about it, what country apart from US has this level of Genetic, cultural and ideological diversity? None.Having worked in the EU, I can surely say EU does not. Its facing a shortfall of people that will work.
I literally know people who did PhD in the US and came to India for research.
As long as I maintain a sizable middle class in India , I can sell my HIGH TECH and ADVANCED products ( jet engines , patents, drugs etc. ) to them. The "Developed" and "Superpower" status can always be used as a mirage , which you will always keep chasing and keep buying weapons and solar panels etc. so as to pump up your muscle.
Why do you think the US is so pissed at the Solar Panel Sourcing laws? Why not so much at FDI in retail? Because the former directly affects the jobs in the mainland US.
They want us to make sweaters and sweatshirts like Pak and Bangladesh. They don't want to risk another China. these countries(Pak and BD) live and die by their textile industries.
The best way to achieve this is Policy paralysis. Keep people divided, foment unrest through NGOs and the like and voila , you have a fractured mandate where nothing happens. With nominal growth your middle class(read Market) increases at a modest pace. You want them to be only good enough to buy stuff from you. They even sabotaged our Cryo engine research.
Here's why it went wrong this time.
For better or for worse, Modi can rally behind him at least 60% of the population. ( assuming NO muslim, NO leftist and NO minority at all). Has a record in development and can take tough decisions, if required. As the Modi wave was building, it was required to nip it in the bud so to speak. Now this could have been the case with many BJP politicians(MP's chauhan/ Arun jaitly) but Modi has something extra going for him. The intensity of Emotions that he invokes is very high. People either love him or hate him like crazy. Because of this you can see our dear neighbors pissing their pants, hell the current intelligentsia(pro West) is pissing their pants. They used to bash him to up their "sekularizm" points in the eyes of the world. They tried every oblique attack since 2002 to stop him. And now at the eleventh hour they aren't even subtle about it. Its a sign of desperation to be sure but its more than that. Its the fear of losing control. A rise in Indian middle class also puts pressure on the Earths resources and makes that much harder for the US to consume them. One more buyer for Oil will only push its price up.

You can argue that I am giving Modi too much credit, and maybe I am. But I think the basic principal of this post stands. They have been meddling here since a long time and the intense polarization(ideological not necessarily religious) due to Modi and 2002 has just exposed their machinations.

This time its vote or Die.
 
Former DGP Shashi Kant reveals six politicians 'patronizing drugs' in Punjab
JALANDHAR: Dropping a bombshell on the ruling SAD-BJP government and also on opposition Congress, former Punjab DGP (prisons) Shashi Kant on Tuesday disclosed six names, including two SAD ministers, from the much-talked about list of politicians and other high profile persons prepared by the intelligence department of the state police for patronizing drug pedaling in the state.

Addressing a press conference here, Shashi Kant said the list was prepared after chief minister Parkash Singh Badal wanted the intelligence wing to prepare a list of anti-social and mischievous elements.

"I included those patronizing drug rackets also. As big names figured in the list, the CM told me that there was no need for me to get into these things as there were several other tasks," he said.

The names of politicians, which Shashi Kant claimed figured in the list, included SAD ministers Gulzar Singh Ranike and Ajit Singh Kohar, chief parliamentary secretary Virsa Singh Valtoha, former SAD MLA Veer Singh Lopoke and sitting Congress legislator from Amritsar (West) O P Soni and Jalandhar-based BJP leader Jimmy Kalia.

Kant, who was ADGP (intelligence) in the SAD-BJP government, claimed that it was a four-page list, which was prepared by the intelligence department in 2007, and he gave it to the CM. He alleged that the list was kept under wraps and little action was taken as political careers of those named in it thrived after 2007 even after it was submitted to CM Badal.

The former top cop, who also runs an NGO, Nasha Virodhi Manch, and has been raking up the issue of drugs vociferously, claimed that he was even asked by CM Badal to get a joint raid by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) stopped, which they had planned to conduct on SAD minister Ranike.

"Badal was tipped off by his sources that NCB and ED were about to conduct a raid on Ranike. He called me to his residence immediately and asked me to get the raids stopped using my network among senior officials and I managed to do that," Kant alleged.

Shashi Kant clarified that Punjab revenue minister Bikram Majithia's name did not figure in the list. "But after Jagdish Singh Bhola named him, the Badals, instead of ordering a thorough inquiry, gave Majithia a clean chit within minutes," he said. Names of around 15-20 police officers -- both from IPS and PPS -- also figured in the list, along with some administrative officers and NGOs, he revealed.

He also questioned BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi over charges that drugs were used during his Jagraon rally and that the same thing would happen in Bathinda. "How can Modi, who claims to be a national leader, shake hands with those patronizing drug smugglers," he asked. BJP leader Arun Jaitley was also ducking the issue and those in the list were campaigning for him, he said.

"I was a confidante of Badals, but later fell out of favour after I refused to do certain jobs. The rift started when I refused to fix some persons, who had damaged a bus of Orbit transport company in Malwa, in NDPS Act cases as asked for by Badals. Then they realized that I will not do everything as desired by them," Kant alleged.

He said that when he became DGP (prisons), after remaining sidelined for a couple of years, he realized that heavy quantities of drugs were being smuggled into Punjab's jails.
 
Its well known AAP leaders have a habit of lying through their teeths and now AAPCONG supporters are on purpose leaving a part of report to project their opponents in bad light.

This part was left out from the above TOI news. Shashikant is a member of AAP so needless to say what he utters holds as much value as Kejriwal taking oath of his children before forming govt in Delhi..

Kalia demands independent probe

After his close confidante Jimmy Kalia was named by former Punjab DGP Shashi Kant, former minister and sitting BJP MLA Manoranjan Kalia said that timing of the disclosure by former Punjab DGP Shashi Kant, a member of campaign committee of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), smacked of political motives, but still these needed to be probed thoroughly either by state or central agencies or by a sitting judge of Punjab and Haryana high court.

The BJP leader said that anybody found guilty must be dealt with harshly. "As a person considered close to me has been named, a thorough and independent probe must be made," Kalia said. Shashi Kant made it clear that Manoranjan Kalia's name never figured in the list. With Kalia demanding a probe, SAD leaders may find it difficult to duck the issue, sources said.
