SBI PLEA FOR EXTENSION OF DEADLINE ON ELECTORAL BOND DETAILS IS UNSUSTAINABLE

SUPREME COURT MUST NOT ALLOW THE BJP GOVT TO UNDERMINE THE SPIRIT OF ITS OWN ORDER
P. Sudhir - 2024-03-07 12:12
The Supreme Court of India had struck down the electoral bonds scheme as unconstitutional and manifestly arbitrary. That the Modi government would find this verdict unpalatable is not surprising, given the fact that the electoral bonds scheme was devised by it to legitimise political corruption.

BJP-BJD ALLIANCE IN ODISHA CAN SHIELD BJP FROM POSSIBLE LOSS IN LOK SABHA POLLS

CONGRESS MUST FORGE ALLIANCE WITH CPI AND CPI(M) TO TAKE ON THE COMBINE
Dr. Gyan Pathak - 2024-03-07 12:02
Talks for BJP-BJD alliance in Odisha is in advanced state. “There were discussions on the alliance among other issues,” said BJP MP Jual Oram, adding “the party’s central leadership will make the final call.” Obviously, there is greater possibility of pre-poll alliance between the two parties, and if it becomes a reality, BJP may hope for shielding its possible loss from Odisha in the Lok Sabha election 2024, especially those seats which it had won by a very thin margin in 2019.

K Raveendran - 2024-03-06 12:02
The Indian election season is a vibrant spectacle. Rallies thrum with energy, multi-coloured flags flutter, and manifestos lay out grand visions for the future. Yet, beneath the celebratory veneer lies a troubling question: are these promises merely a game of rhetoric, with little chance of translation into reality?
