Newer alliesBy: Nijagunamurthy Basoor | Monday , 20 Apr '09 20:55:51 PM Reply | Forward As people should understand BJP is not a communal party as per the most communal parties like Congress,CPM,and RJD.Other parties should open heartedly support BJP for the better future.

New AlliesBy: Kumar | Monday , 20 Apr '09 15:08:17 PM Reply | Forward Yes, I think there will be more parties who are willing to support the NDA after the poll and if yes, it would be good for India. India is not a Hindu country and nobody in BJP ever said it and will not in the future. But the so called minority God's, the congress will propagand otherwise as they really afraid of a situation where in BJP got another chance then, it is the end of period for Congress. BJP led NDA ruled india for 6 years and was there any billed passed in the Parliament against Muslims? Now it is high time for the Mulims in India to start joining in BJP and work for BJP. If you are still believing in Congress then your situation will go to worse from the present poor. Do you think a alternate to BJP and Congress at the centre will do good for you? Do you expect any good governace from Congress which they cannot do for the last 50plus years they ruled India? Now please vote for BJP and a chance for Mr. Advani just check his ability and his motives. Sure it will be better than the Congress who for power got aligned with the communits.

Dreaming before sleeping By: IMDAD GILANI | Monday , 20 Apr '09 14:38:25 PM Reply | Forward Your staement indicates that u are not confident enough of your victory what earlier u used to claim that your party would have full majority now why your confidence has began to fade your body lanuage also shows that u have conceded your defeat pl be confident and fight like a worrier our country is looking for having a prime minister like you

Lets give people who want to work, a chanceBy: Jai Hnd | Monday , 20 Apr '09 13:51:06 PM Reply | Forward I think we the people of India should give a definite chance to Sh Lal Krishna Advani because I personally feel that he has been in Indian politics for many many years and hasa seen it all. He is waiting for his turn to be the next PM of the country and I think this is the reason why he should be given a definite chance to lead the country because he knows that at this age if he doesnt give back to this country what he owes then even the God won't spare him. Also I feel that our media has been biased towards the UPA govt because they always try to glorify the Cong and its yound leaders which is not 100% correct as there are other leaders from other parties who are more capable than them. Also he has ovecome his communal image a long way back

Same old song and same old hupla.By: DILIP/FRANCE | Monday , 20 Apr '09 13:07:38 PM Reply | Forward Media missed an opportunity to put the perpective on record.Instead of extracting policies which would dvelop India economically and socially,about economic growth, about poverty reduction, about human development, about healthcare, about safety net for thr poor about distribution of wealth, about job creation, about infrasrtucture, about increasing productivity of land labour and agricultural out put,educating the poor and many more other issues, instead the media desneded on its pet subject of divisive and communal politics.All We would say if India has to debvelop and progress all politicians will have to start to think out of the box,so would the Media, otherwise we will stuck in the stale quagmire and rabid dogmas.We urge all parties who want dvelop India through market economy should join hands and progress. India needs economic growth of 9% to remove poverty and hunger.

I have a problem with this, because..By: Indian | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:44:37 PM Reply | Forward I have a problem with this statement because, Advani might have overlooked that Congress has hundreds of crores of money acquired through corruption (Bofors/Quatrocchi, Spectrum, Iraq food for oil scam where Sonia/Congress name was mentioned, but only Natwar was made scapegoat, etc., etc.).. So, like they did during the confidence vote time in Parliament, they will rain crores of rupees on different party figures, and get them to their side.. The only hope is that BJP gets a clear majority and then, Congress tainted money is left helpless in this matter.. Or, there are still some parties which are not influenced by money, like Orissa's Navin Patnaik's party, which will support a nationalist government of BJP. And, communists also cannot be influenced by money, so they can also be taken as an ally.. but that should be as a lost resort, since, in that event, the communists will insist that all old communal policies of the Congress is continued (like treating terrorists with kid gloves)

bjp will have newer allies...By: k p chandra | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:43:16 PM Reply | Forward Mr Advani has rightly said that many other parties will have alliance with NDA after the election results are declared. There are parties like TDP TRS in AP and AIDMK-led alliance in TN, who are likely to do much better in this election and will contribute over 45-50 seats, whose chance of joining the NDA is brighter than that of UPA. Further, in UP, BSP will get a sizeable number of seats and may extend support to NDA, but at a price. Congress led UP will not get more than 140-150 seats and their earlier allies like RJD and LJP will suffer huge losses and may not be in a position to contribute much.

advani's fearBy: iftekhar ahmad | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:16:55 PM Reply | Forward yes mr. advani all of your old friends got bored with you so you have been left nowhere and now you are wandering like camel in the desert and if you are to blame for this situation u should blame your divisive and hate spreading policy.you are in the haste of becoming pm and for this end u can go to any extent but your dream will remain dream because people and the political parties have understood your opportunism.

advani's fearBy: Sundaresan | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:48:44 PM Reply | Forward I wish to ask a question to Mr. Iftekhar Ahmad. Who in your opion is not an opportunist in Indian politics? Is it Sonia Gandhi who got CPI(M) to back their Govt. when they could not form Govt. of their own. When CPI(M) are their principal opponent at W.Bengal and Kerala or is it Prakash Karat who backed Manmohan Govt. then arm twisted to submission and when they did not hear them left in the lurch. Or Mulayam supported Govt. when CBI gone after him and now Lalu and Mulayam found Cong weak and gave 2-3 seats at their states. My dear friend it is the oppornutisic politicians are using Muslims as vote bank and banding BJP communal. Why in India Muslims lagging behind when India was ruled for 56 years by so called secular parties whereas NDA ruled only for 6 years. The reason lies for the backwaradation of Indian Muslims lies squarely with them as they have only narrow Religious mind. Come out boldly and joine the national stream. Don't get carried away with the so called secularists false promises. Open your mind and see who is to blame.

thank you Mr. sudarshan for coming out with some truth.By: iftekhar ahmad | Monday , 20 Apr '09 14:05:28 PM Reply | Forward yes, Mr. sudarshan everyone is opportunist even u and i but there is a limitation and Mr. advani trespassed every limitation take for example,when he goes to pakistan he praised jinnah and in india he condemn him, he got the BABRI MASJID demolished and he termed it the saddest day of his life,he talks of babri madjid when he is in opposition but when he got the power did nothing not only this i can give u many more examples which prove mr. advani not only an opportunist but a hypocrite.as far as u have asked us to be in national stream we are very much in main stream and we need not to prove this to so called upholders of national flag india belongs to us as much it belongs to others.as far as muslims backwardness concerned ,u are right that congress used this community since the independence and did nothing for their betterment but we do not expect gujrat genocide for the government and by the government.in a nutshell, i want to draw your attention that advani is against terrorism but do not you think that he is only against so called islamic terrorism and when comes to Hindu terrorism he supports it as you have seen in the case of male gaon blast accused when he met the prime minster in the support of terrorist. lastly, i want to ask you what all these show ?

As Salam Walekum Iftikar bhaiBy: sachin | Monday , 20 Apr '09 19:59:19 PM Reply | Forward Iftikar bhai , the basic question is that why Muslims are being used by any party, either Congress or by Lalu Mulayam, why don't muslims have the unity to support their own candidates like Ulema council in Azamgarh, I came from Small town where I grew up in Hindu muslims family and when I went back after 20 years , muslims still doing the same stuff as opposed to hindus. They try to look any leader who can guide them but never tried to become leader. Please educate your community and ask them to come up and do the best in the world.

BJP will have newer allies after polls, says AdvaniBy: Sayed M. Ahmed | Monday , 20 Apr '09 11:59:02 AM Reply | Forward This is reply to Mrs Bhanumati.India is not a country belonging to only Hindus. You will have to wait for generations may be when the whole world will come to end to India become a Hindu country. India belongs to Muslims, hindus, Christians, Sikhs and other innumerable castes. Pls dont play religion with politics. Its very bad. If BJP drops the attitude of hating Muslims and build the Babri Masjis which was brought down in the presene and leadership of LKA, I will guarantee you that Muslims will vote for BJP and bring it to power and then only LKA will become PM of India., otherwise not.You should tell all Indians to unite and not only Hindus.Please avoid making such comments on lineMr. Sayed

False sentimentBy: Jon | Monday , 20 Apr '09 14:01:13 PM Reply | Forward Can you tell this to Taliban who exploded a masque in Pak just lost month that too while people praying inside. to whome you are telling your false sentiments. ofcourse babri masjid was a symbol of a ivador and was never used for prayers.

Why Can't Muslims Gift A Ram Mandir at the disputed location in Ayodhya ?By: Ranjit | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:39:44 PM Reply | Forward Hindus have never played any religion card for election benefit. Its only so called godfathers of Muslim commuity only doing the harm for Minority Community by showing the fear of BJP. In my view all the differences between the communities will be resolved and there will be amicable settlement of the issue, if the muslim community as goodwill gesture can gift the disputed site to their Hindu Brothers. Moreover we are all Indians, once we are outside India our identity is Indian not Hindu nor Muslim.All educated muslims should press for Common Civil Code, these socalled secular political leaders only playing with the emotions of muslims either in the name of Ram Mandir or in the name of Sahabano Case.This is the reason why majority of muslim community leaving in poverty after 62 years independence. So my call to all educated muslims to get rid of vote bank politics and join BJP for nation building and community development.

BJP and new alliesBy: Subramanian | Monday , 20 Apr '09 12:26:52 PM Reply | Forward Dear Mr. Sayed M. Ahmed you are politicising the issue with religion. Babri Masjid is not an issue as it already lost its champ by now and you should tell that we altogether come and have a negotiable settlement and instead of that you are trying to change the scenario with different versions. Please advise when BJP told that they are against Muslims and in that matter if we take your verson correct then is Congress is against Hindus as they have submitted an Affidavit about Sri Ram in the Supreme Court? My friend be calm and don't bring religion in Politics n I request same to Mrs. Bhanumati
