When India wears the G20 crown By Thomas Franco | November 24, 2022 https://www.cenfa.org/when-india-wears-the-g20-crown/ With the 2024 elections in focus, the Prime Minister and his coterie will try to show that they are the most powerful in the world. They will do everything for the so-called global champions, who will take care of their campaign strategy and funds. They have the Media, Money and Machine which they can manipulate.
G-20 has all the powerful finance institutions with it. The International Monetary Fund(IMF), the Word Bank, World Trade Organisation (WTO), the Financial Stability Board(FSB) and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). It also includes the toothless International Labour Organisation (ILO)- which could not make the member countries implement the agreed conventions; World Health Organisation (WHO) -which could not implement ‘Health for All’ by 2000 or even now; and the United Nations (UN) whose sustainable development goals are not going to be implemented.
Prime Time | Congress के दिग्गज Gujarat में चुनाव प्रचार में क्यों नहीं जुटे? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5SoT5_yMgo Nov 23, 2022 गुजरात विधानसभा चुनाव (Gujarat Assembly Election) के लिए प्रचार का काम जारी है. बीजेपी (BJP) ने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी (Narendra Modi), मुख्यमंत्रियों, केंद्र सरकार के मंत्रियों की सेना को एक तरह से धुआंधार प्रचार के लिए जमीन पर उतार दिया है. आम आदमी पार्टी (Aam Aadmi Party) भी अरविंद केजरीवाल की अगुवाई में गुजरात के गांव शहरों की गली मोहल्लों में प्रचार में जुटी है और सत्तारूढ बीजेपी को चुनौती दे रही है. लेकिन इस बार कांग्रेस पार्टी की क्या रणनीति है?
2024 is an Election BJP Could Lose; Economic Distress, Bihar Loss Make it Vulnerable: Yogendra Yadav https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLRViXncSFw Aug 17, 2022
Yogendra Yadav, who is perhaps widely considered India’s finest psephologist, analyses the results of a recent India Today poll and says that the national election of 2024 looks like an election the BJP could lose. He adds “the BJP is much much more vulnerable than it looks”. His own baseline assessment of how many seats the BJP is likely to win in 2024 – please note this is neither a forecast nor a poll – is that it could end up with around 240 seats. He says “it’s hard to see how the BJP’s national tally can cross 240 (which is) way off the 272 mark.”

Decoding BJP’s Gujarat story: Hindutva became the defining political common-sense in the state thanks to the party’s better statecraft https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/toi-edit-page/decoding-bjps-gujarat-story-hindutva-became-the-defining-political-common-sense-in-the-state-thanks-to-the-partys-better-statecraft/ November 16, 2022 Hilal Ahmed The popular "gujarat Model, Gujarat as Laboratory, does not explain what as per CSDS-Lok Niti survey fins two thirds satisfied with Gujarat Government;s performance.

Indian Electoral Politics: Shifting Sands
Seven decades down the line the electoral scene has changed for the worse and is currently dominated by emotive issues. The foundation of derailing the ‘this worldly’ issues was the Ram Temple movement. This movement became stronger after the implementation of Mandal Commission report. Since then the domination of emotive, identity issues is on the rise. This is reflected by the fact that in 2019, no party dared to utter the word secularism, as claimed by the winner of 2019 elections, Mr. Narendra Modi himself. He presented it as a trophy for the efforts of RSS-BJP’s political success.

It is in this track that any issue can be given a religious turn as we witnessed its peak in the coining of phrase ‘Corona Jihad’. This showed how electoral politics can be reduced merely to game of identity issues. BJP has mastered this art over a period of last few decades. The media, which is prostrating to BJP ideology, is putting its best efforts to magnify the doings of communal stream.
Not to be left behind, Arvind Kejrival is trying to compete which these divisive efforts revolving around identity issues, in his own unique smart ways. The AAP, which in a way, is an alternate model of communal politics; is playing its Hindutva/communal card with shrewdness. Kajriwal party is also an example of blind subservience to the dictator by the other leaders of that party. As Kejriwal demanded this; all his cronies, stated saying the same. The peak of this was Atishi Marlena, who stated that this demand of Laxmi-Ganesh is not merely Kejriwal demand, it is the aspiration of 130 crore Indians! Most of the dictatorial tendencies believe they are speaking for the whole country. This is a duplicate of what Narendra Modi, when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat, used to say that he is talking on behalf of Five Crore Gujratis. India needs a party which can accommodate all sections of society with equality and dignity, apart from welfare; it also promotes employment and proactively deals with marginalized sections of society. We need a party where religion is not mixed with politics. For many, AAP began with a big promise for a better politics, but its reality is there for all to see with its trajectory leading to demanding Laxmi and Ganesh on currency notes and dumping of Jan Lokpal in the dustbin of Hisotry!
