BJP not seen gaining from Cong loss; regional parties will rule the roost.

And in this space, the verdict is loud and clear: BJP is not seen gaining from Congress Party's perceived loss as both have disappointed the voter, according to our digital followers.

Why Pakistan celebrates its I-Day on Aug 14, Pakistan.

 

Bangalore, Aug 14:

The separate states of India and Pakistan were created at midnight on August 15, 1947. Yet while India celebrates that day as its independence day, Pakistan celebrates its independence day a day before. Why it is so? Reason 1: Pakistan's first independence day was also celebrated on August 15 but later on it was advanced to August 14.

 

One of the reasons is that British Viceroy Lord Mountbatten, who had chosen August 15 to commemorate the surrender of Japan to the Allies Power marking the end of World War II in 1945, sought to transfer power to Pakistan on August 14 so that he could be present in New Delhi to observe India's maiden independence day celebrations. Reason 2: Also in 1948, Pakistan decided to celebrate its Independence Day on August 14 because 27 Ramadan, an auspicious date of the Islamic lunar calendar, coincided with it. Hence the Pakistanis decided to celebrate their Independence Day a day before the actual date.

Survey : BJP better than cong at fighting corruption.

UPA-II has mostly been about shocking big ticket scandals. The size of these is mind-boggling indeed. Scandals to the tune of Rs 1.76 lakh crore and Rs 1,86 lakh crore happen rarely.

The Congress-led ruling coalition has the unique distinction of presiding over both and many others similar scams.

 

 If all the coming general elections were to be fought over the issue of corruption only, the ruling coalition headed by the Congress would be out of power for a long, long time.

While the jury is still out on whether the Food Security Bill (FSB), crafted and drafted by the UPA government at the centre, would bankrupt the treasury, what is certain beyond doubt is it would bankrupt the ideals and moral character of the nation sooner than later.

Serpentine queues in front of the numerous community kitchens that constitute one of the cornerstones of the Bill would be an eyesore harking back to the Dickensian era. Children, both school-going and others, pregnant mothers, the destitute and others would line up both at lunch and dinner time with begging bowls in their hands, as it were.

BJP Will fight 2014 Lok Sabha poll on the issue of development :M Venkaiah Naidu.

 

The BJP would contest the 2014 Lok Sabha polls on the issue of development, said party leader M Venkaiah Naidu on Thursday, while accusing the Congress of raking up the bogey of secularism to hide its failures of governance.

Talking to media persons in New Delhi, Naidu rejected Prime Minister Manmohan's criticism of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, saying he was a "very popular leader who stands for 3Ds - Decisive, Dynamic and Development oriented".

"These 3Ds are making him the most popular among the people in the country. These 3Ds are missing in the prime minister and his government. People want a decisive, dynamic and development oriented leader and party. That is why they are looking towards the BJP and talking about Narendra Modi," he claimed.

Post Congress revamp, PM Manmohan singh and UPA chairperson Sonia Ghandhi reshuffle Cabinet today

New Delhi:

A day after the Congress party revamped its organisation, it is now likely that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi will reshuffle the Cabinet on Monday.

The swearing in for the new set of Cabinet Ministers is scheduled for 5:30 pm on Monday at the Rashtrapati Bhawan. It is possibly the last such change before the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

The exit of the DMK and the TMC, as well as the resignations of Pawan Kumar Bansal and Ashwani Kumar over the Railway bribery case and coalgate scandals has forced the Congress to make changes in the Cabinet portfolios. Minister Mallikarjun Kharge is likely to be shifted to the Railways.
