What's new

It may be Modi Vs Rahul in 2014 elections

Out of interest, not because I know much about Indian politics..., but correct me if I'm wrong, the recent elections in Karnataka for example were surprisingly (at least for me) clear wins for the congress although the opponents tried to influence with Modi in election rallys and advertisements. That again shows that elections won't be won by specific persons, but by parties right?
So no matter how many people like Modi today and how weak the possible candidates of the Congress might look like today in comparison, the key for the election remains which party and which coalitions is the most promising one!

So what makes the Modi supporters here think, that his party and their possible coalition partners would be better for India, without the personal preference for him or any other person? Can somebody tell me what policies these parties stand for and what major changes would come if they were elected?

Similarly, to the MMS / Rahul / Congress supporters, what changes from the current policies and what improvements from the current mistakes and failures (scams, inflation, Maoists) can we expect from the party, without the personal preference for any person?

There was anti incumbency factor against BJP and more so against BSY. BJP already considered it a lost battle, and Modi did not campaign in that state but only addressed one rally. only one. It was not a planned or full scale campaign.

More than being pro Modi I am against Raul gandhi. The reason being he is projected for PM post only because of his birth. He has not held a cabinet position or any position of accountability in govt. where we could analyze of see for our self, his performance. On the other hand senior leaders of Congress who are ostensibly more qualified than Rahul gandhi project him as PM. I wonder why! I wish i was born a scion of gandhi, i would be running this country right now and doing a damn better job than MMS

Genius has its limit, boot licking in congress does not.
 
India loves its image as a happy go lucky land where Muslims go to Teerath Yatra and Hindus wish they could go for Haj. Where there is secularism and modernism, orgies on the streets, and candy rains from the skies.

That image can't be sold with a Hindu frothing from his mouth shouting racial remarks as a PM.

It will be fun if there is Modi in India and a Charismatic figure like Imran Khan here in Pak. It will be Musharraf vs Vajpayee again. Vajpayee used to put people to sleep while Musharraf went in bam bam and came out.

It has always been easier for Pakistan to take out Hindu fundamentalist nutjobs than the secular folks in Delhi.



You consider vajpayee as leader who used to put people to sleep?:cheesy: :hitwall:


Whatever goes in india in the name of secularism atleast gives hope, however fleeting, that they will be looked after / or will not be persecuted in the name of religion.
And if 10% of that scared section of society benefits from its "image" of a happy go lucky land where Muslims go to Teerath Yatra and Hindus wish they could go for Haj. We know we are doing 'something' right.
As opposed to your joke of a govt and mess of a society on its merry way to collapse.

I was playing Metal Gear rising the other day and Pakistan features prominently in its story line among destabilized African countries, and believe it or faint, they 'in the game' are calling for Pakistan to be declared axis of evil. I laughed so hard i fell of the bed.


Lastly since you hold so much admiration for Musharraf :woot: lets just say Modi is our musharraf. Time to start phissin? May be.

I thought anti-incumbency set when you two terms or more. If anti-incumbency sets in the first 4 years itself, then the party must really be down in the dumps.
 
pitching Rahul Gandhi against Narendra Modi would be suicidal for Congress IMO Jairam, Chindu, Salman, Antony would better choice as puppet prime ministerial candidates

It's gonna by Chiddu and will be announced after elections only. I like Antony, but he's a bit too 'socialist' as seen by the way he's running the def ministry, especially purchases.

Focus on the word 'incumbent'. Incumbency can be pro or anti. For ex modi's govt in gujarat had a pro wave cos janta was happy with the work. Dictionary is your friend. It has nothing to do with two terms or more.
Coming to the astute observation of party condition in Karnataka. True indeed although it was contained at regional level, not to forget that BJP went through a split. At national level BJP is on the rise.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........I know your strategy, WEAR PEOPLE DOWN WITH TANGENTS UNTIL THEY GIVE UP. Well it's working!

Anti- incumbency= people vote you out because you've been in office for soooo long that people think things have stagnated and they need new people at the helm. The rest of it is inanity. People voted BJP out because they were lazy, corrupt and inefficient. Whether there was one split or two would never make a difference.

But MMS is not a Gandhi either and that's his problem too, because he might be the PM, but doesn't run the party and that's the crucial point! It doesn't matter what personality, knowledge, or ideas you have, the one that is in control of the party or the coalition is running the game and that's the same all around the world. Even Obama couldn't pass some of his reforms or initiatives, because members of his own party blocked it. Merkel is continuously axing possible contenders in her own party, to remain in control of the party.
And that's the point many people forget when they think about Modi too, because if he can't control his own party or their coalition partners, he won't be able to do what he really wants to do. In that case Rahul might even has an advantage, since his mother won't axe him, or fight against his ideas openly, so he might be able to do more than MMS could in his 2nd term (even if he wanted), but I agree with you that he should prove himself as a minister first and not directly be a PM because of his name.
 
Nirender Modi is destined to become PM when he killed thousands of mulims in Gujrat massacre.
International establishment want him to Lead India.
All they want a nut cracker in India..
Pakistan knows this fact and since last two years we trying to improve good relation with India and send representatives in India to meet Modi.

In 2002 Gujarat riots , 790 Muslims and 254 Hindus were killed and 223 more people were reported missing.

Where do you get the thousands of muslims killed figure ??
