Manmohan Singh may be the Prime Ministerial face for UPA ?

 If Congress sources are to be believed, Dr Manmohan Singh may become the party’s choice for the prime minister’s post for a possible third term if Rahul Gandhi continues to insist on staying behind and strengthening the party rather than opting as the face for UPA Prime Ministerial Candidate for 2014 General Elections !

Well, sounds like a fairy tale.As if  Rahul Gandhi does not know that if, at all, UPA gets a third chance to serve the nation, it would surely be his last opportunity to take the driving seat and probably make things happen for Congress. In the opposition,the Cold War between Bihar’s CM, Nitish Kumar, and Gujarat’s CM, Narendra Modi, may take a bigger shape if Modi is selected as the prime ministerial candidate for NDA.

Prime Minister of India 2014

Congress indicates , Manmohan may serve third term if  UPA wins , while Rahul is not being kept totally away from the gossip on the topic.On the other side, BJP is also yet to clear its stands on whether Modi is the prime ministerial candidate for NDA or not. To add on, Mulayam Singh’s re-indication of formation of a Third-Front by the year end, is adding on to the confusion.

It all looked like,Rahul Vs Modi,till 2012 but now things are getting blur. No matter what the combination may come out as, one thing is assured,with Modi proving to be the most suitable Prime Ministerial candidate amongst any names we take throughout the country , it would never be easy for Rahul Gandhi to get the seat without proving his worth,ever.

Kejriwal’s fast completes 11 days and goes unheard so far !

Looks like fasts against governments do not bother Indians !! So far, all fasts,in the recent past have failed and Kejriwal, the activist turned politician who is also diabetic, has lost 7 kgs in 11 days indicating even this fast would fail. Arvind Kejriwal is on a fast against inflated water and electricity bills in Delhi. While the party claims there have been lakhs of people signing the ‘ bijli-paani satyagrah ‘pledge,it looks like nothing would actually change.Kejriwal has pledged people not to pay their power bills(and everyone else would pay the bills except for him, I suppose).With the summers knocking the door who would risk a permanent power and water cut? The Delhi government  inspired by its counterpart at the  Centre (after all they are the same political party) and the Prime Minister , prefers remaining deaf ears while Kejriwal’s detoriating health may soon put him off the fast .

Meanwhile,the Chief Minister,Sheila Dikshit had her birthday celebrated by party members on 31st March and was seen enjoying a chocolate cake on the occasion ! 😉

The state President of BJP,Rahul Sinha,wrote to the Bengal CM, Mamata Banerjee , who said she could not help .

Is this a beginning of tussle between two aggressive leaders and Chief Ministers of India ?

Will it be Mamata vs Modi because of Netaji Indoor Stadium?

Well, if it was all about singing English number , even our very own, PC aka Priyanka Chopra , would have been a desi choice probably asking for way less than J.Lo .  😀 😀 😀   !   Just Kidding !   😀

Sanjay Dutt breaks down

After bollywood star , Sanjay Dutt has been sentenced to serve another 3 and 1/2 years in Illegal Arms Case verdict, there has been loads of politics and drama . Actor,Salman Khan, who is close to Sanjay Dutt reportedly visited him first after returning from the US  and meanwhile , while addressing the media, Sanjay Dutt aka Sanju Baba literally started crying and then hid his face on his sister’s shoulders.While many claim this was a  sympathy stunt,a few are taken a back and somehow do not want Sanju Baba to go to jail and be pardoned. The actor has declared he is ready to serve the jail and requested the media to leave him alone with his family and friends till he surrenders.

Well, even Salman Khan has cases of hunting down blackbuck in Rajasthan and hit-and-run case(2002) on his name. As both these actors have dared the law of the land with their deeds , they may have many common things to talk about ! May be !! 🙂

I am proud of Kargil Operation-General Pervez Musharraf

Pakistani former President , General Pervez Musharraf has entered his country again, after a long exile to contest for the country’s upcoming General Elections . With his entry in his country , started a series of news conferences where he has been discussing about his self-exile and reasons of coming back to Pakistan and also declared that he was proud of the Kargil Operation in the year 1999.

Pakistani former President,General Musharraf proud of Kargil Operation

The Pakistani army together with militant groups, had infiltrated the Indian side of LOC (areas of Jammu and Kashmir controlled by India) and captured strategic locations of the area including  Kargil. Indian forces had to face many casualties yet Kargil was won back by India and due to International political pressure , Pakistani troops were forced to leave other areas they had entered,as well!

Even Pakistan lost many military lives and more importantly had to face world criticisms at all levels.General Musharraf is considered the mastermind of the Kargil Operation.India and Pakistan have had their reasons of conflicts since independence yet people from both the countries,ideally,prefer a peaceful co-existence, at least , now !  It would be interesting to see the performance of Musharraf in Pakistani General Elections. It would better define if the Pakistanis prefer his ideologies or not . It was easier for him last time to over throw the then Prime Minister-Nawaz Shareef and become the President himself. Winning elections and getting back governance of the country may not be a cake walk , this time !!
