BJP PLANS BIG TO COMBAT TRINAMOOL’S CONTACT PROGRAMME IN RURAL BENGAL

ALL PARTIES SEND CADRES TO VILLAGES AS THE PANCHAYAT POLLS ARE NEARING
Tirthankar Mitra - 2023-01-16 13:07
An incident of an activist of a political party being roughed up cannot be an occasion of joy and jubilation for it. Yet a barely concealed cheer prevailed in the West Bengal state BJP after one of its leaders was allegedly beaten up by Trinamool Congress activists during a Didir Doot (Didi's messenger) programme when the former approached state minister, Rathin Ghosh with complaints about lack of civic amenities at Duttapukur in North-24-Parganas.

CONGRESS IN KERALA AT WAR WITH ITSELF

LEADERS SUFFER FROM ‘THAROOR PHOBIA’
P. Sreekumaran - 2023-01-16 13:05
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: He should have been hailed as a hero. Instead, he is being demonized by a section within the Congress itself. And his only ‘crime’? Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor is trying his level best to boost the fortunes of the Congress in one of the few states where it is still a force to be reckoned with.

BSP SUPREMO MAYAWATI HAS BEEN LOSING THE TRUST OF DALITS THROUGH CONFUSED ACTIONS

HER STATEMENT ABOUT BSP FIGHTING SOLO IN FUTURE POLLS IS A RELIEF TO BJP
Arun Srivastava - 2023-01-16 11:57
BSP chief Mayawati’s announcement that her Bahujan Samaj Party would contest the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and other assembly elections all alone has not come as surprise. What has been really intriguing is her accusing the Congress and Samajwadi Party of spreading rumours about a "possible tie-up" with the BJP in the run up to national general elections and other state elections. If what she says is to be relied, her real thrust is that these two parties are trying to win over the traditional support base of her party.

RAHUL GANDHI HAS VASTLY IMPROVED HIS STATURE IN THE COURSE OF BHARAT JODO YATRA

BUT IS IT ENOUGH TO HELP CONGRESS TO DO BETTER IN NINE STATE ASSEMBLY POLLS IN 2023?
Sushil Kutty - 2023-01-16 11:55
Defending Rahul Gandhi’s ability to become Prime Minister of India, just like his great-grandfather, his grandmother and his father, is getting difficult and difficulter as the Bharat Jodo Yatra gets closer and closer to Srinagar’s famed Lal Chowk, the yatra’s final destination. The Hollywood movie of the same name was built on the theme that no matter what one does, and doesn’t matter how much one tries to avoid, the inevitable is inescapable!

NO NEED TO TRUST IN CHINA’S ASSURANCE TO WORK WITH INDIA

BUDGET CONSTRAINTS HURTING INDIA’S DEFENCE PREPAREDNESS
Nantoo Banerjee - 2023-01-16 11:53
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s year-end assurance that China is ready to work with India for the “steady and sound growth” of bilateral ties and it is committed to upholding stability at the border areas where a stand-off has prevailed since 2020. The statement, believed to have been meant for an international audience, is untrue. Only last month, Chinese troops clashed with well positioned Indian soldiers near the Tawang sector of Arunachal Pradesh. In January 2021, another face-off left troops on both sides injured. India's construction of a new road to a high-altitude air base is seen as one of the main triggers for a deadly Galwan Valley clash in June 2020 with Chinese troops claiming at least 20 lives. Tensions continue to simmer though China is concerned about the possible economic fallout as it runs a massive trade surplus with India. Wang Yi’s assurance on China’s readiness to work with India for the “steady and sound growth” of bilateral ties may have more to do with economic ties than military disengagements.
