India – Illegitimate National Electoral Outcome
Padmini Arhant
Indian election was held and over now with the outcome arguably raising numerous questions on the means in the face of non-correlating ground reality. The voter frustration over election deception is a brewing storm post election given dissatisfaction en masse on Prime Minister Narendra Modi government’s first term performance.
There is no doubt election is transformed into a formality to legitimize illegitimacy.
The elected members of Parliament along with political parties so-called victory draw attention in this regard.
The carefully managed and calibrated election to favor those to silence democracy beckon focus.
BJP’s apparent landslide victory exceeding personal and party expectations despite PM Narendra Modi’s dismal record on social issues and economy in particular not barring national security in the absence of evidence on much touted Balakot air strike is indeed too good to be true.
PM Narendra Modi having unlawfully, unethically and undemocratically eliminated real candidate the ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav out of the race on false reasons, the so-called invincible Prime Minister Narendra Modi is hailed victor in Varanasi amid massive rejection and disillusionment among Indian electorate including Varanasi voters at large.
BJP guaranteed victory to supposedly opposition heads of political parties like Congress head – Sonia Gandhi, President Rahul Gandhi from Kerala by showing loss in home turf Amethi.
The trend continues with SP leaders Mulayam Singh Yadav ( the one who yearned for PM Narendra Modi’s return during his speech at Parliament closing session), his son SP leader Akilesh Yadav in the SP & BSP coalition in U.P. also spared to muzzle any dissent upon contradictory position in his constituency.
In J&K – the National Congress leader and former Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah is allowed to win in the embattled state as BJP’s vocal opponent. The inverse would have unraveled BJP’s spin and upset the applecart for the national party default to three seats in defiance of anti-BJP sentiment in J&K.
In West Bengal – rather than crashing and crushing Trinamool Congress (TMC) and TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee, BJP slams the brake in the near head on collision to avoid major raucous and post election turmoil in the otherwise volatile eastern state. The move quietens TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee relegated to be satisfied in retaining Chief Minister post on bare margin.
Down South – In Andhra Pradesh – BJP axed TDP and Chief Chandrababu Naidu visibly active in interlocutor role pre-election in the hope of bidding farewell to Hindutva ideologue BJP at the centre only to be recipient in reverse format.
BJP knowing well that YSRP blossomed in Andhra, BJP let that bloom as any interjection or disruption would have aroused suspicions on BJP’s selective election maneuver. It so turned out that BJP wish in Andhra Pradesh to see rival Chandrababu Naidu led TDP out of the scene materialized without BJP doing anything in that respect.
BJP flex muscles and makes inroads in the other half of the territory – Telangana by gaining four seats having faced colossal defeat in the assembly polls in October 2018 to propagate Narendra Modi wave conspicuously missing back then and now.
Tamil Nadu – BJP generosity towards Congress ally DMK to receive more than they could handle pretty much sealed DMK from crying foul on EVM mismanagement that would have forced DMK to submit to similar counter argument on their extraordinary ballot bonanza.
Kerala – BJP allowing status quo in the southern state is an insurance policy to deter popular demand on vote fraud unequivocally committed in this election following suit from earlier electoral events.
Karnataka – BJP’s dominance admittedly from horse trading in the south western state was registered to convey Hindutva guided BJP determination to overrule election norm.
Delhi – PM Narendra Modi denying recognition of people elected local government represented by AAP was established in the aggressive assault deploying devious tactics to morph EVM enabled clean sweep in the capital state.
Uttar Pradesh – the northern state was primarily the sitting duck with BJP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath handling home ministry or interior ministry misused power witnessed in unprotected transportation of EVM’s from polling stations regardless of those EVMs being empty or full.
Likewise, EVM magic was more potent than Modi mantra in northern states – Bihar, Rajasthan and central state Madhya Pradesh. Though same scenario apply nationwide on EVM facilitated winnings in most parts of the country leaving the remaining intact to offset speculations and obfuscate non-existing Modi mania.
Gujarat cannot be excluded either in EVM scandal. The western state in the backdrop of Modi disenchantment was impetus in BJP manufactured election gimmick.
In nutshell, BJP essentially won over opposition in permitting the relevant members of political factions to maintain their respective Parliamentary and State assembly status confining them to contentment on individual success via unopposed or weak challenges practically delivering electoral advantage to every one of them.
Conversely BJP stifling valid probe on EVM debacle and fraudulent usurpation to power by riding on unpopular Narendra Modi band wagon evident in the biggest political stunt ever declaring the end of democracy with fanfare.
Meanwhile, the election commission and Supreme Court as silent spectators generate the impression on the constitutionally set up institutions metamorphosis to renegades much to democratic system decline.
Anything obtained deceitfully is unsustainable and disintegrates due to delusional claims forging distrust and decadence.

India – Election Results 2019 Upend Democracy
Padmini Arhant
A sad day for India on the demise of world’s largest democracy when fundamentalist ideology premised on communal, divisive and polarizing politics using fear and violence marginalize the foundation of Gandhian ideals and hard fought freedom.
When candidates of a national political party viz. BJP declare Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin a patriot and the party chief Amit Shah standby the provocative statement with pride further denigrating Mahatma Gandhi in using the reference Satyagraha, these candidacies prevailing in the national election is ominous for the nation and the philosophy of ahimsa meaning non-violence, peace and unity.
Notwithstanding the height of presumptuousness in the incumbent Narendra Modi in the earlier term and throughout political campaign proclaiming self as the Supreme pose grave challenges to people represented governance.
The shadow power i.e. corporate financiers, Indian stock market and external forces rallying behind their ally Narendra Modi is expected at the nation’s expense. Though the cause for celebration confined to vested interests having adverse repercussions cannot be ruled out in the near and long term.
Unfortunately, the election has been anything but free and fair considering the violations and specifically the flow of black money and electoral bonds widely used to buy votes in most parts of the country.
The reports from the campaign ground on minorities and other demography voter registration cancellation depriving them from casting ballots or using their democratic right to participate in the election besides the declining of ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav nomination to contest against candidate Narendra Modi cannot be ignored as well.
The results barring above mentioned electoral irregularities nationwide has settled towards default position due to lack of credible and formidable political choices as a viable alternative despite the central government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dismal record in office – soaring unemployment, poverty and inflation exacerbating economic woes across the country.
On the regional performance, the outcome reflect anti-incumbency and/or absence of appealing options for the electorate leaning towards the available political factions in the electoral exercise.
India is confronted with nationalism spreading Hindutva doctrine only to be spearheaded in the misuse of political mandate.

India – RSS controlled BJP’s Exit and Tamil Nadu Politics

India – RSS controlled BJP’s Exit
and
Tamil Nadu Politics
Padmini Arhant
When the Prime Minister elected to serve the country spends maximum time overseas in the five year term, it is not surprising to note that the main office bearer and BJP party officials are clueless of ground reality in the domestic front and insist on living in the fantasy world.
The false hope among BJP cadre touting incumbent candidate Narendra Modi invincibility despite BJP (0-5) losing all five states in October last year i.e. 2018 and recently the fear of losing in denying ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav the right to contest election against Narendra Modi from Varanasi suffice as evidence.
BJP incumbent contestant Narendra Modi engagement in illegal horse trading buying opposition MPs and state legislators including voters with cash that BJP party chief Amit Shah and PM candidate Narendra Modi organized by printing Indian currency offshore for cash distribution during election per reports in public domain elaborate the means to gain power.
In fact, cash disbursements to voters is a common practice prevalent nationwide in the so-called free and fair Indian election.
In Tamil Nadu, many such incidents brought to light in this election treading on the ex- Chief Minister Jayalalitha’s path.
Jayalalitha went further in printing counterfeit notes that were imitated by her counterpart Karunanidhi to lure voters that obviously revealed by voters rather than Jayalalitha and Karunanidhi owned sycophant media preoccupied in glossing over their corrupt legacy until today.
According to then Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi, Jayalalitha asked former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi to make her Tamil Nadu Chief Minister stating M.G.Ramachandran widely known as MGR, her film co-star and mentor who actually made Jayalalitha’s film and political career possible and successful could not speak english and that she was more qualified than MGR for the Chief Minister post.
The general belief among local population in Tamil Nadu is Jayalalitha was behind AIADMK former Chief and mega film star MGR’s demise as she then became the successor wreaking havoc in the state until her last moment of life with her controversial and destructive drive in setting up liquor shops in every nook and corner of Tamil Nadu forcing alcoholism on even a child in that state. The action without a shadow of doubt was grand finale in Jayalalitha’s tumultuous political regime.
Karma caught up with Jayalalitha conspicuous in her final days and destination not a pleasant domain indeed.
Jayalalitha and Karunanidhi spared no opportunity in terrorizing Tamil Nadu citizens and electorate who were primarily bought with bribes and failing that intimidation, threats that are usual political tactics to make voters cast votes in their favor.
Besides, both AIADMK and DMK parties were routinely involved in vote rigging and fake votes that enabled Jayalalitha and Karunanidhi alternate to power lasting over decades in the southern state Tamil Nadu.
Tamil Nadu population were punished not only during Jayalalitha and Karunanidhi’s lifetime, they are haunted by both of them through their respective parties and offshoots in installing life size statues of these two political figures at public expense constantly reminding Tamil Nadu people of their brutal political history and blatant abuse of power.
The political parties in Tamil Nadu and rest of India forging alliance with rivals to become rallying forces to win at all costs is the norm in the quest for power.
Finally, RSS run BJP reining in on their foregone conclusions on Narendra Modi’s candidacy as indomitable would be wise in order to cope with inevitable defeat.
Again, the aftermath of declining ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav election challenge against Narendra Modi confirms the latter dismal electability.
Narendra Modi’s formidability or the lack thereof would have been proved upon the candidate accepting ex-servicemen Tej Bahadur Yadav’s electoral call unlike BJP adopting violent and corrupt strategy to eliminate the soldier from the race.
Alternatively, Narendra Modi competing against Congress Party in Amethi, Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh would provide credence to presumptuous claim on Narendra Modi’s candidacy.

Ex-Army Soldier Reports at the Press Conference on Narendra Modi Negotiators’ Bribe Offer of 50 Crores
500 million Rupees or face Murder upon non-withdrawal from the race in Varanasi against Narendra Modi
The myth on Narendra Modi Lehar (Wave) is debunked to be Narendra Modi Zehar (Poison) consuming innocent lives and democracy on the whole.
The ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav’s nomination papers were cancelled at BJP contestant Narendra Modi’s order using 3G Spectrum (Goons, Guns & Gutter politics).
Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh political party SP delegating the ex-BSF Tej Bahadur Yadav to rally behind their original nominee, Congress Party defector Shalini Yadav is least surprising.
The stunt apparently capitalizing on soldier’s publicity and perhaps any endorsement without realizing that are not necessarily transferable especially in the people vs. political regimes alternating power absent delivery on electorate issues is political expediency.
The development confirms politics typical nature to ride on mobilizers backs rather than rely on self-productivity.
Politics maneuvers and opportunistic tactics are well known and Indian politics is no different in this respect and are seasoned in getting ahead of the game at others expense.
The political defections from one party to another in Indian politics besides coalitions among parties who were bitter rivals in recent memory are ad nauseam and carried out without any shame or inhibition with the common goal of winning at all costs by hook or crook revealing politics colorful character.
Only politics were to have any good character, the same would be reflected in governance. Unfortunately, politics ever remains up for sale bargaining voters trust for power and personal fortune.
Additionally, the criminal underworld funded corrupt entertainment industry along with crony media joining forces for propaganda politics is yet another equipment of political apparatus.
Narendra Modi and Amit Shah duo are veterans in twisting arms often beyond the political victim and targets being hamstrung resulting in casualty or fatality. The violent cowardly techniques enabled these two entities reach the helm in politics precisely on 3G Spectrum (Goons, Guns & Gutter politics).
Narendra Modi’s survival in politics has been eliminating opposition not by wit or credible legacy instead through devious strategy and divisive politics.
The formidable contender like the ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav removed from the playing field is testimony to Narendra Modi jittery having nothing to claim in terms of positive performance in the past five years except inflicting economic pain and misery in the name of demonetization, GST and soaring unemployment besides exacerbating defense force as well as agrarian crises.
The seismic activity from the ex-BSF Tej Bahadur Yadav’s candidacy rocked BJP’’s canoe on Varanasi Ghat (banks) triggering panic attacks on Narendra Modi’s electability inevitably set to sink than stay afloat in the Holy Ganges.
The incumbent candidate Narendra Modi has miserably failed in all aspects with a dismal track record evident in voter backlash experienced by the government in the state elections with BJP losing all five states 0-5 in October last year i.e. 2018.
Narendra Modi severely lacking in ingenuity and originality, however crafty in 3G Spectrum (Goons, Guns and Gutter politics) have bribed and/or threatened members in politics, judiciary and institutions responsible for monitoring and investigating events.
In this context, the ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav’s latest revelation on BJP Narendra Modi’s negotiators offering him 50 crores i.e. 500 million rupees or deal with possible murder to drop out of the race might be alarming for many but then the trend is long maintained and contemporarily active on candidate Narendra Modi’s own accounts.
The allegations of horse trading and jockeying for power were leveled against BJP’s B.S. Yeddyurappa government and Narendra Modi in the southern state Karnataka. The news reports verified that MLAs lured with cash to sabotage the local party and Congress alliance over there.
In the past month, Narendra Modi boasted on taking over 40 successful candidates of Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal post election to dent the TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee’s chances of retaining government and CM post in that state.
Excerpt – Financial Express Report
“Modi’s big claim in West Bengal: 40 TMC legislators in touch with me, will desert Mamata Banerjee post-May 23”
Not long ago, Narendra Modi as part of three member committee comprising other than self, the CJI nominee Supreme Court justice AK Sikri and Opposition leader Mallikarjun Kharge successfully removed the Supreme Court reinstated then CBI director Alok Verma for daring to proceed with corruption inquiry against Narendra Modi’s business partner on CBI radar for nefarious dealings costing Indian taxpayers money.
The news reports in public domain stated that the opposition leader Mallikarjun Kharge dissenting on the decision to replace CBI Director Alok Verma at that time, Narendra Modi adopted his usual trick to win justice AK Sikri’s vote by promising the panel member a lucrative position post retirement from the judiciary.
Headlines – Economic Times
Government nominates Justice AK Sikri to Commonwealth Secretariat Arbitral Tribunal
Sources in the Ministry of External Affairs said the decision regarding AK Sikri’s nomination was made last month in view of his retirement on March 6, 2019, from the Supreme Court.
Last but not the least the following video categorically establish Narendra Modi’s rise to political stardom based on 3G Spectrum ( Goons, Guns & Gutter politics) is incontrovertible.

India – Narendra Modi BJP Fait Accompli
Padmini Arhant
Narendra Modi opponent in Varanasi ex-BSF Soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav Nomination Papers
Rejected By EC at the last minute
Why? The Nation needs to know on EC’s egregious decision.
The incumbent candidate Narendra Modi concedes to contender ex-Army soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav in the election from the Holy City Varanasi.
The ex-BSF Tej Bahadur Yadav’s nomination papers originally approved by election commission suddenly rejected now in the wake of developments favoring ex-Army personnel Tej Bahadur Yadav draws focus on BJP’s Narendra Modi and Amit Shah’s 3G Spectrum (Goons, Guns & Gutter Politics) denying the Army veteran constitutional right to run for public office.
Narendra Modi and Amit Shah run BJP’s deplorable tactic eliminating ex-Army soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav from the race is essentially the former’s fait accompli fearing the colossal defeat in the hands of decorated serviceman.
Accordingly the last minute deceitful maneuver against the challenger Tej Bahadur Yadav conclusively decide Narendra Modi as the loser in Varanasi polls.
Unlike Narendra Modi and Amit Shah’s political career entrenched in corruption and criminality not barring murder of own party members and cabinet ministers by hiring hitmen and goons besides rape and massacre of thousands in communal violence,
The ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav having dedicated more than two decades of his prime life in national service along the most volatile and dangerous borders suffice to alert Varanasi and Indian electorate en masse to decline Narendra Modi, Amit Shah run BJP any victory in the final election phase.
Not to mention, the ex-army contender Tej Bahadur Yadav and family subject to extreme and excruciating mental and psychological harassment from Narendra Modi administration for being the whistleblower on corruption within army food and meals service units where those responsible for providing daily meals to servicemen were in fact selling the allocated proportions outside and profiting from the illegal arrangement. As a result, the soldiers meals were compromised serving them with burnt and stale food that had become the norm per ex-BSF Tej Bahadur Yadav’s complaint.
The ex-BSF personnel Tej Bahadur Yadav reported to all concerned authorities in adherence of the military code on the state of affairs related to servicemen meals and corruption in the relevant section of the army with no response. Then the soldier produced a video on the matter as evidence in his direct appeal requesting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s intervention.
Much to personal and his family shock, then Border Security Force soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav was removed from his service on indiscipline charges with Narendra Modi media conducting trial on airwaves justifying PM Narendra Modi government’s despicable action against the army personnel ignoring his valiant contribution to the nation at the borders for twenty one years risking his life along with his family’s sacrifice while he was away from home for an extended period of time guarding the national frontiers.
The political class aggressive reaction towards whistleblower ex-Army veteran Tej Bahadur Yadav compounded tensions and led to his only offspring, the twenty two year old son to commit suicide early this year. The ordeal took toll on his family as it was politically intended to serve as warning to other whistleblowers from exposing corruption within civil and military administrations.
India needs to rise to the occasion and Varanasi in particular to overwhelmingly dismiss the incumbent candidate Narendra Modi, Amit Shah and BJP’s 3G Spectrum- Goons, Guns and Gutter Politics.
Indian electorate and Varanasi voters must come together and demand reinstatement and approval of ex-army soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav nomination papers allowing the honorable citizen of the country to contest against the exiting Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The failure in this regard would surmise status quo and capitulation to hardline fundamentalist feudal corporate run politics through Narendra Modi and Amit Shah government.
The video on submissive and derelict election commission obliging Narendra Modi in invalidating the strong opponent ex-BSF soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav nomination papers is an ominous reminder on the assault on democracy by the outgoing PM Narendra Modi and BJP party chief Amit Shah in violation of every rule of law applicable on all without prejudice or preference.

India – Politics Opportunism & Exploitation
Padmini Arhant
Politics never missing any opportunity to gain political mileage and advantage is the norm. Not to mention the spotlight.
This involves those riding on the tide in the hope of personal benefit to them and their political parties is least surprising. Such expectations are not always guaranteed to come into fruition especially for political groups seeking momentary profit. Again miscalculations delivering desirable outcome is farcical.
Indian politics traditionally premised on dynasty, interpersonal relations and fielding high profile candidates within fraternity besides welcoming celebrity at eleventh hour is the practice.
The latest stunt from the political coalition Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samajwadi Party (BSP) the former rivals in the northern state Uttar Pradesh having previously ignored the Independent candidate ex-army soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav suddenly becomes a political fortune is unfortunate for everyone involved in this strategy.
The ex- BSF Tej Bahadur Yadav pledging commitment to fight corruption and dynasty politics joining the cadre that represents and rooted in these traits pose a credibility factor for the candidate.
The ex- army serviceman Tej Bahadur Yadav disassociation from these political factions SP, BSP and others by contesting as an independent would be wise without having to inherit the newly joined old party SP, BSP political baggage.
Furthermore, SP & BSP exploiting the situation in dumping their initial nominee in Varanasi, a Congress defector Shalini Yadav for ex-Army personnel Tej Bahadur Yadav stating the alteration as bold decision against incumbent candidate Prime Minister Narendra Modi even to the extent of claiming the introduction of ex- army soldier Tej Bahadur Yadav as their novel idea is political shenanigans.
The trend is nothing more than politics revealing true colors in the absence of originality and ingenuity hopelessly relying on anyone and anything to capture the moment.
Tej Bahadur Yadav should run as an independent candidate to demonstrate real chowkidar (watchman) against PM Narendra Modi (fake chowkidar with corrupt criminal legacy) and Hindutva BJP with whom SP and BSP have forged alliance in the recent past and same possibility arising post election cannot be ruled out leaving the candidate Tej Bahadur Yadav as one them.

The outgoing PM Narendra Modi self-reference as chaiwala (tea server) and chowkidar (watchman) for political mileage unfairly target the labor force classified under informal economic sector.
PM Narendra Modi constant use and abuse of anyone and anything from Indian defense force to chaiwala and chowkidars – incidentally the worst affected members in PM Narendra Modi’s disastrous economic policies like demonetization, GST and turning a blind eye to service men requests for one rank one pension meaning fairness across the spectrum deserves electorate attention towards PM Narendra Modi’s repeat violation of election rules barring such election pitch.
The real chaiwalas, chowkidars and defense personnel message through electoral mandate defeating relevant rhetoric and candidacy – in this instance incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Varanasi, Gujarat or wherever is critical to end politics exploitation of people and their occupation to personal advantage and electoral gains.
PM Narendra Modi never shying away from claiming credit in anything and everything is the norm depriving actual contributors and anyone tirelessly and selflessly involved in challenging tasks of dealing with international affairs and crises that has promoted India’s image and status in global domain.
PM Narendra Modi’s narrative asserting such boost to India arising from PM’s umpteen foreign visits at ex-chequer’s i.e. ordinary taxpayers expense combined with the PM’s signature bear hugs is a lofty self-adulation.
PM Narendra Modi’s overseas trips failure to yield economic dividends in terms of foreign investments stimulating dormant job growth in India except favoring the former’s friend ally and campaign donor Anil Ambani and the latter’s sinking ship revealed in controversial Rafale scandal is a self-embarrassment than personal pride.
The writing on the wall states otherwise. The foreign investments and economic trade relations normally expected to enhance domestic employment and business opportunity through exports and manufacturing have declined in the past five years under PM Narendra Modi’s economic mismanagement.
PM Narendra Modi’s assessment of his foreign travel elevating India’s contemporary stature is misinterpretation.
When taking travel and tourism into account since PM’s overseas trips fit into that profile, the NRI’s and Indian nationals’ travel to various destinations of their choice representing their country of origin cannot be excluded in this category of making India’s presence in international domain.
In fact Indian tourists would make up for greater impact than PM Narendra Modi’s aggregate trips abroad.
PM Narendra Modi is required to sense and recognize the world that exists beside and beyond himself elected to serve limited term in office in the designated post.
PM Narendra Modi’s performance unfortunately falling well below voters expectations and default on promises made in 2014 resonate more among disillusioned electorate than the prime minister’s frequent offshore vacations.
The gunghroo and payal (anklet) barb reflects on the source angst and lack of substance viz. the life jacket to stay afloat in the midstream electoral process.

India – Ordinary People v Corrupt Political Regimes
Padmini Arhant
The average Indian electorate with their present and future at stake exercising discernment and wisdom by rejecting all those candidates out on bail contesting election via national and regional political parties is extremely important to protect their economic interests and individual invaluable rights long endangered by political regimes alternating to power.
The prominent members out on bail seeking election in 2019 are;
Congress President Rahul Gandhi.
Congress Party Chairwoman Sonia Gandhi.
BJP candidate Pragya Singh Thakur
Her opponent Congress candidate the veteran in corruption scandals Digvijaya Singh deserving rejection in Madhya Pradesh. Digvijaya Singh is not on bail. However, never held accountable for many corruption dealings.
Similarly, also decline victory to Rahul Gandhi’s opponent in Amethi, the television industry soap opera actress and all time unsuccessful BJP candidate Smriti Irani. Ms.Irani as close associate to PM Narendra Modi is a Rajya Sabha MP not through election but by selection since the Rajya Sabha seat in Gujarat (PM Narendra Modi’s home state) was unopposed with no candidate vying for that seat allowed Ms.Irani to represent BJP in Rajya Sabha. Ms.Irani was also appointed PM Narendra Modi’s cabinet minister based on cronyism rather than merit.
These names are merely the tip of the iceberg.
Outgoing PM Narendra Modi political rhetoric – PM job not for auction is self-realization perhaps better late than never.What PM Narendra Modi in transition need to know as well is
PM job definitely not for terror attack facilitators against Indian defense force and Hindutva terror operatives recruiters as their party candidates and worse the PM contender using defense force, religion and caste to seek votes in the face of personal dismal record and devious demonetization debacle.
I challenge the exiting PM Narendra Modi to deal with his own disastrous economic policies suggesting educated youth to fry pakoras ( Indian savory) aimed at creating world record on Indian street vendors and food stalls hiring highly educated youth in this line of culinary art due to lack of jobs in their desired profession or any other economic sector.
Not to mention PM Narendra Modi’s surgical strike on India’s youth and the millions unemployed relevantly the ones actually frying pakoras as street vendors and in food stalls forcing them out of work as well in inducing competition from highly educated youth per the genius proposal from clueless PM Narendra Modi.
Attention Indian Electorate:
The current election is between you the ordinary folks from different walks of life especially the frustrated unemployed youth, the women and marginalized minorities used as vote banks and the corrupt political regimes using black money and unscrupulous tactics to assume or resume power only to exploit you, the disenchanted republic upon election to public office.
The political establishment wayward tactics and abuse of power to end democracy is a serious matter of concern. Accordingly, the electorate discernment in rejecting politics and political leaderships concerted efforts to subvert democracy is critical to protect hard fought freedom and individual rights that are non-negotiable.

The alarming jingoism premised in fundamentalism is a serious threat to national unity and sovereignty.

India – Transparency Battle
Padmini Arhant
What the vulnerable, impressionable and gullible electorate need to recognize is the hyenas (given the intense predator instincts compared to wolves) in sheep’s clothing. These voters as main targets in election for political parties especially the major ones premised on ends justifying the means are exploited to maximum.
The political parties riding on media might not only the mainstream but also those poised as the so-called independent and investigative channels are partisan partners in this sham to advance devious agenda denying the desperate population their due rights and opportunity to development.
Under the guise of reporting, these scammers are shamefully deceiving them and captive audience through nuances and insinuations delivering the message from those whom they actually represent i.e. the political machinery in different configuration much to their own peril.
As for the political establishment representing the national groups such as RSS led BJP and Dynasty Congress severely lacking in substance and integrity to debate on their failures and provide rescue strategy to alleviate misery and agony among overwhelming majority are hopelessly dependent on deception and communal divide.
The national political parties through paid media channels and social media employees conspicuously invested in falsehood and propaganda sparing none from Lord Ram to Bharat Mata ki Jai cliche and Indian defense force actions following Pulwama attack to name a few typically engaged in scoring political points without realizing the dubious stunts unveiling their real image in spotlight.
In terms of actual issues – the political parties repetitive stance evading challenges on practicality is evident in concerted efforts to deflect public attention.
Notwithstanding the immediate refute on irrefutable facts brazenly handled through public relations contingency appearing on various media networks to combat any credible arguments on dysfunctional governance and leadership responsible for dire consequences ranging from demonetization, erratically implemented GST, to intelligence lapse and gross negligence that tantamount to dereliction of duty facilitating fatal attack on 44 national defense force personnel are merely the tip of the iceberg in the complete meltdown affecting significant population nationwide.
The leaderships ignoring the basic courtesy and humility speaks volume on their nature towards people and the nation they are elected to serve returning to campaign trail seeking election and re-election regardless of defunct trajectory.
In this context, the possibility on incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi apologizing to Indian electorate in many respects is analogous to moonwalking on earth. The demonetization debacle and false promise on crediting 15 lakhs rupees i.e. 1.5 million rupees in every citizens bank account and creating 2 crores or 20 million jobs in the economic sector, none of that delivered remains the bone of contention among disillusioned voters expected to be swept off their feet with PM’s costume and makeover doubled down with war rhetoric and pseudo bravado against PM Narendra Modi’s ally, host and well wisher Pakistan authority.
It is never too late for those involved or implicated on matter with adverse ramifications on victims in politically motivated decisions to apologize and be remorseful.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s apology to India on demonetization and further back in his political career – the communal violence, murders and obstruction of justice related to Godhra riots in Gujarat would define the individual character or the lack thereof in building trust on the leadership.
Similarly, on the other side the Congress Party under Sonia Gandhi leadership having assumed power subsequent to her spouse and former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi who was then the head of the government during ethnic cleansing of Sikhs and later Sonia Gandhi joining forces with Sri Lanka’s former President and Commander-in-Chief Mahinda Rajapaksa in genocide of Tamils in Tamil Eelam in Sri Lanka merit apology directly from the decision makers resigned to unapologetic status as their prerogative in politics.
In Tamilnadu, the celebrity Kamal Haasan’s fringe political party designed and funded to split vote base favoring the national player RSS’s BJP considering both entities’ commonality on anti-muslim and upper caste syndrome with the actor performing to the script sporting Indian Air Force Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman’s mustache is classic cinematic infusion in politics in sheer violation of election rules to refrain from using, posing and suggesting defense force endorsement to sway votes in the otherwise anti-BJP state.
Perhaps the script missing on the important Hindi idiom – mustache and truth cannot be hidden forever.
Last but not the least, the uphill battle on transparency with no immediate effective measures or willingness from the relevant authorities i.e. Supreme Court of India and the Election Commission allowing political parties in particular not barring communication outlets masqueraded as independent journalism continue business as usual without any information on donors and stake holders behind the scene.
As a result, the so-called free and fair election with enormous black money, counterfeit notes and anonymous electoral bonds protecting donors identity raise questions on the validity of process in the world’s largest polls.
The remedy to contagious problem differed until post election in itself is a jeopardy in a democratic system.
Thank you.
