The Great Indian Political Drama - 1 (Oct 2017 - Mar 2018)

He has the same approach to Hindutva too. Except that it is less visible or there are far too many action items to cover that it appears no action is being taken. I am confident, given two more terms, he will take Hindutva to a point where there is no turning back.
UCC too is part of Hindutva.

There are several types of TTT = Triple Talaq. Two broad categories are - 60 day TTT and 3 second TTT
.
60 day TTT = Talaq - 30 day gap - Talaq - 30 day gap - Talaq
.
3 second TTT = Talaq - 1 second gap - Talaq - 1 second gap - Talaq
.
Less than 1% are Talaq 3 second TTT. Over 99% are 60 day TTT.
.
SCjs , Modiji and RSS have banned ONLY 3 second TTT.
.
SCjs , Modiji and RSS have NOT banned 60 day TTT. And many muslim countries have banned only 3 second TTT. 60 day TTT is legal in almost all islamic country.
.
TTT means
.
And over 99% maulvies have opposed 3 second TTT. Most Maulvies declare 3 second TTT as void.
.
So all this is much ado about nothing.
.
If it is incrementalism, then one will need to wait for a billion years
.
And real strength to islamists come from lack of 2 child law and bangladeshies, and lack of community control over temples. And on these three, action has been sub-zero.
.
So all this anti-3-second-TTT is just a drama to convince (or fool?) Hindus that "see something is happening, see at least something micro or nano is indeed happening ... see pls wait for 10 years ... pls wait for 100 years ..."
.
Just as RSS and Modiji have erased Krishna Janam Bhoomi Devalaya and Kashi Vishvanath Devalaya from public memory, it is matter of time 2 child law, bangldeshi mess and community control over temple is also erased from public memory.

100% karrect wonly saar. NM is a man of his word. If he says "pehle shaunchalaya phir devalaya" it means both toilets and mandir will be built, in that order. He will deliver. Some people interpret it as "forget about mandir", I don't know why. And then there are some other fellows who insist on twisting his statements about black money and demanding 15 lakh per head, when he never made such a promise anytime.

As for Congis, they seem to have fallen apart in Gujarat. It is a two way fight despite the attempts to bring in spoilers like Softdik and Alpesh (translates roughly to "the lawd of small size"). I agree with Dr. Braveen Badil (check his tweets)..at this time one does not need an opinion poll to figure out the result of GJ election.

Did BJP really sweep 2017 civic body polls in Uttar Pradesh? Reality check!

In mayor election of large cities, BJP won 14 out 16
In Nagar Palika Corporator, BJP wins only 941 out of 5241 !!!
.
So % vote wise, BJP's % votes seem to be quite low.
.
BJP won mainly becuase anti-BJP votes were divided. Which was the case when BSP or SP won too -- none ever got more than 35% votes
.
One can compare VOTE SHARE between may-2014, feb-2017 and now

I hope you said that sarcastically

By the way that tweet is a hilarious takedown of Stalin saying abhivadaye

Stalin has just got old and is afflicted with cancer , otherwise no one in TN has forgotten what a rowdy and a thug he was in his youth

Yes. I couldnt stop laughing with that tweet.

Not only during his youth but also the way he got rid of other power centers in DMK was ruthless. Unlike Alagiri, he does not enjoy the loyalty of his cadres due to his non sharing and ruthless nature.

Mayawati and others alleging that BJP won only in those areas where EVMs were used, and lost where paper ballot were used.

It could mean that there was fraud in the paper ballot booths, since that is easier to perpetrate, no?

Why is Congress Party forcing Dr Manmohan Singh to make Political statements? They did all the corruptions under him yet never honoured him as PM.

Anyone else find it odd that INC toadies have suddenly raised vague rumors of corruption in the Rafale deal?

INC must've thought taking on the BJP head-on on NatSec would benefit them hugely - seeing how they successfully destroyed George Fernandes as NDA-1's Raksha mantri using fake "coffin scam" allegations.

Well, this ain't ABV's BJP for sure, and they're getting nowhere. Besides, Modi sakar has quietly sprung a revolution-size change in the defence sector, seems like. Sample this:

Modi's Make in India just saved Rs 1 lakh crore in defence sector. Here's how (India Today mag)

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Make in India initiative has helped the defence ministry save more than Rs 1 lakh crore worth of foreign exchange. In the past two years, as many as six air defence and anti-tank missile projects have been built indigenously by the DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation), even as several new ones are under its consideration.

Senior defence officials said the decision by the government in favour of going for Make in India is also going to help the development of the indigenous defence industry as the money which would have been transferred to foreign vendors would now be spent within the country and will also develop the capabilities of the indigenous players.

Even though three different defence ministers Arun Jaitley, Manohar Parrikar and the incumbent Nirmala Sitharaman have held the office in the last three years, all of them have shown inclination towards Indian projects while deciding on whether to buy the missile systems from abroad or go for Made in India systems, the officials said. The services chiefs have also backed the indigenous programmes fully while allowing the Defence Research and Development Organisation to take time to develop in-house missile systems.


The projects where the government has decided against the foreign vendors and gone for DRDO's Made in India products include the two separate projects for Short Range Surface to Air Missiles (SR-SAMs) for the Navy and the Army, The Quick Reaction Surface to Air Missile (QRSAM) for Army, Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) for the Army, helicopter-launched anti-tank guided missiles for the Army and the armoured vehicle launched anti-tank missiles for the ground force.


Some of these missiles which will substitute imports have been under development for the last several decades. It goes to the credit of DRDO that some of the projects that have been undertaken by it in recent times have also reached advanced stage, due to the organisation's expertise.

Mail Today takes a look at the different projects including the missiles, which Defence Research and Development Organisation have developed indigenously and calculates the money the country has saved. SR-SAM (short range surface to air missiles) project for the Navy (expected cost : Rs 30,000 crore) The Navy wanted the capability to annihilate any incoming enemy aircraft, drones and cruise missiles at a short range altitude of 20-25 kilometres and was keen on going in for a European solution. Prior to this, Navy had also said no to the indigenous Akash missiles on the grounds that it wanted a more compact system.The DRDO then proposed to develop an indigenous canisterised version of the short range air defence missile.

Following this, the government decided to scrap the plan to buy the European missile in large numbers and go in for a Make in India solution. The defence ministry has now decided to go in only for limited procurements from abroad. SR-SAM project for the Army (expected cost Rs 20,000 crore): Under this programme, the Army wanted to buy missiles from global vendors in Russia, Israel and Sweden. The force demanded that they want a system in which the missile should have a sensor to track and target the incoming missiles accurately. The DRDO then offered its latest version of Akash missile with an indigenous sensor. The project was accepted, and the then defence minister Arun Jaitley scrapped the global tender.

The new missile named Akash-S1 was tested successfully five times in Odisha, last week. HELINA (Helicopter Launched NAG missiles) and NAG (expected cost Rs 10,000 crore): The HELINA programme has been going on for several decades and it started showing success in tests in recent times.

[JohnTitor]

The indigenous missile program has always been good.

It’s the other projects that seem to be going nowhere. Tanks, LCA etc have all com to a standstill

A few days ago I had said three things- for Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and the Congress. Since then, UP has voted BJP and the rigging in Congress Presidential elections has come to the fore. In a few days, what I said about BJP winning Gujarat will also come true.[\quote]

I wonder, what's with this 'rigging in Cong presi polls?' The shehzad(a) Poonawala ruckus? Shehzada is important enough to be taken up at the NM level??

OK. saw this later, so it is true indeed...

what is nail in clause in coming banking reform laws?

It allows the banks to offset their NPA losses against the deposits of common depositors. It is another form of legalized robbery after demonetization that this psychopathic government is allowing.

And you are a lying libtard whose sole aim is to stir disenchantment with the only true leader India has since Independence. Common depositors money is insured and is safe.

Is an informed, fact-based debate too much to ask for?

What Is a Bail-In and How Does It Work?

Instead of bailing out private banks with tax payer money because they are too big to fail (like the US did in 2008), it would be so much preferable to give the richest bondholders and depositors the option of converting some of their money into equity in the same bank versus losing the money altogether. Or do we prefer to fleece the common people in the name of Socialism like the Congi mafia did?

[SSundar]

This forum has Christian (and hopefully, Muslim) members. Please share your candid opinion.

Over the last year or two, my WhatsApp feed seems to show a clear trend. Christians and Muslims in my WA groups are openly anti-Modi and do not bother to hide it. There seem to be no exception. This is common in the group of my rural high school as well as highly ranked engineering college. They do not seem to take any good news about India under the NDA government kindly at all. Anyone who says anything positive about this government is a Sanghi, and that is an open accusation.

Now, isn't it all out there in the open that Sonia Maino and her cabal ran the most anti-Hindu government ever for a decade? This is besides the fact that there is no denying their corruption and unflinching drive towards a Socialist paradise.

What makes a particular group of people, highly educated as well as otherwise, so insensitive to their Hindu brethren that they openly say that this anti-Hindu, corrupt, regressive cabal is much more acceptable to them than one man whom they love to hate?

Is it not the case that at the panchayat level, candidates cannot contest with party symbols or affiliations, even though parties may be supporting them in logistics etc? I think we have seen this in many other instances as well.

If these forums are going to be abused with fake analysis and your farcical equivalencies (RSS = BJP = Con etc) perhaps in your zeal to push your own political agenda, this forum will not only never become an alternative to the GDF we lost, it may soon lose its relevance and whither away. Already any decent discussion that starts here gets swamped by the muck you generate and the one-liners from the one or two fans you have here.

This really does not pass the smell test.

Shehzad Poonawalla isn't a stranger to the Maino mafia. He knows the fate of the entire Vadra family. Chances are extremely low that this guy is actually out on a rebellion unless he is proxying for Robert Vadra. If so, NaMo chiming in seems a bit naive.

The alternative is that this is a MAD-inspired rebellion from the get-go.
