AAP is very much in the news. They have won the trust vote with help of Congress and JDU in Delhi. Does this not indicate shape of things to come. JDU was once with BJP in center as well as Bihar. Now in Delhi, JDU and congress are on the same side with AAP. This is when BJP is largest. It appears that even if BJP is largest in 2014 elections, a combination as in Delhi will emerge in centger also with some molre players reducing BJP to roile of opposition.

Accepting support from Cong, seems to prove AAP is more towards Cong and this will give benefits to BJP, and secondly, in speaker election, BJP announced it candidate and this enable Cong to lend open support to AAP for speaker post and in this way AAP perceived to be towards Congress and people who do not like price rise and other issues will vote to BJP, it is a smart move of Congress to cut vote bank of AAP, it will cut anti congress vote bank for sure but in recent Delhi elections, Congress lose 17 percentages of vote share and BJP gain one percentages, so it is Congress to think how they can walk with AAP, time will tell, in the second link Dillip Padagaonkar's view is there, and I consider him pro congress journalist, so I do not see him talk neutral and I do not give him such weight-ages when he predicts for the future.

I agree that Congress will lose and be upseated. BJP may also get more seats as happened in Delhi. Just imagine that this happens in whole country post 2014. BJP gaining, Congress losing and others (like AAP in Delhi) emerging as the second. Then Congress may support 'others' just as in Delhi. Thyat is why the Delhi politics may be a rehearsal of All India image in 2014. post parliamentaery elections.

absolutely, this is one such possibility, politics is all about taking smart moves, in famous Odia novel "Athacha Channakya" (What channakya thinks) reveals some of like these moves of politics, that play has ancient background but the story runs to modern politics, the question now is, AAP gets most seats from central delhi where service holders are there and AAP has background of one year long protest, now, should they perform similar, in parts where BJP govt is doing fine, they ovetake sheila dixit because of some impending corruption charges, and inflation of central government, now both cong and AAP at the same side, and inflation is perceived to be from center as PM also said so, is it a boon for AAP, or some other else, neverthless it will one of most memorable election of all times. Still am not sure about it, any thing can happen.

Chanakya's Raj Neeti is as relevant to day as it was during his time. But , the changes that took place over a period have to be taken in to consideration. Still, there is no room for predictions in politics.
Not very long ago, there used to a saying, "What Bengal thinks today, the Nation follows next day."
Later the saying has undergone a change. 'It's the UP's politics that dictates the political scenario of the country. Under these constant changes, political smart moves cannot work. Predictions will fall flat.
Even Kejriwal who was in the midst of Delhi politics said during his oath taking ceremony, "I never dreamed even in my wildest dreams that AAP will take such turn.'
So the element of outcome will remain mysterious. No place for predictions. At the most, the events can give an inkling about the future slightly.

I doubt that very much ! if AAP has any good sense and know the pulse of the nation they will do very well to distance themselves as far away from UPA as possible....The outcome of the general elections as now cannot be predicted since it very mmuch depends on how well AAP performs in the coming months and what effect it can have on other parties ...

The national political scene is much more complex than that of Delhi. There is no comparison. Many regional parties are at play . This will affect the election results. Moreover, BJP is looked at with suspicion by minorities. In spite of all this if BJP gets the highest number of seats, it may be deprived of power by regional parties joining together.

CM of AAP is living in duplex bungalow which he denied during pre poll campaigns, and also his cabinet are taking official cars which also they have denied, now they are yet to reduce electricity tariffs, and they have given huge subsidies to electricity companies instead, as those money can be properly utilized for poor but they did not think of it and now they have denied BJP demand in legislative assembly of Delhi to initiate graft charges against former CM of Delhi, as CM is saying to BJP give the proof of graft charges of Sheila Dixit and others, but AAP during poll campaigns were saying they will remove corruption and start the corruption cases against former CM. Shungloo committee has enough proof to initiate changes but they are denying, what is going on at AAP, Prior to elections Kejriwal aid told media, he is staying in a two room flat, which is not revealed that he is living in a four room flat, why such string of lies. Why they are moving out from their promises, in cases of water, if water spent beyond free limit, high surcharge will be initiated on people. :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

People will soon get btired of the dramatics and gimmicks. They are not bothered in the long run about simplicity dramatics. what the need is performance. Nobody objets to the ministers availing of legitimate facilities to which they are entitled under rules. All that is needed is honesty and performance.

AAP has decided to field candidates in parliamentary elections wherever feasible. Very likley the opposition votes particularly of BJP will be shared by AAP and this will benefit Congress.

I wish this thread continues until the results for GE declared sometimes in June. That will bring some strange reactions to what we post today.
