Commies and all the political parties are aware of the probable results in lok sabha elections...they expect NDA to in substantial seats...so they are making announcements now itself to block NDA...Left is a negative party..to form alliances to only block other's chances and ill no allow he cong to take decisions like they did the last 4 years...that's whythe pm has said enough is enough and went ahead with his conviction..make no mistake I m niether upa or nda supproter...both are in effective

any patriot in India will be a left hater...i admire your intelligence in comprehending my message
What one is missing out is that at least 3 MPs are in jail on being convicted. These include Pappu Yadav and Shabuddin of RJD and Surajbhan of LJP.. At the same time Akalis may actually abstain as they might not like to bring down a Khalsa... Shiv Sena may also see some dissensions as some are banking on Congress tickets in the next Assembly or Lok Sabha polls... its going to be close...
may be UPA will not get 272 but will survive trust vote as a minority government so that they can be blackmailed by the SP and smaller parties in the next 6-7 months...
The pseudo federal system of India is going to fail soon. India is nothing but a union of may different cultures. Karnataka cannot share water with Tamilnadu but India and Pakistan does not have any issues in sharing the water of Sindh and other inter-country rivers.

good comment mrabony ..that will happend in future .lets wait and see...
Most parties don't want elections now. Mainly the Commies. Nandigram and Gorkhaland issues are still fresh. Today's meeting between Jyoti Basu and Pranab Mukherjee also. Perhaps they will be shown the fragile situation they are in if an election comes up soon. Perhaps.
Perhaps the Commies could br persuaded to abstain? Perhaps. Wishful yhinking. But why discount that possibility?
The dye is cast and Manomhan would be tested on 22nd July. It is not clear whether he would scrape through but as things stands today, trouble ahead for him. It is mainly because, the splinter groups,fence sittes, would be playing their part crucially in this sordid game. They may upse the calculations of the UPA or the Left. It is to be seen soon. The splinter groups include Ajit Singh RLD, JD(S)TRS, JMM, and independents are the one to be closely watched. They have their own grievance against the Govt. But then Opposition too is not in a happy position led by BJP as they fall short to upset the UPA. The Left nodoubt play a crucial part in this game. But then, what is debated here is whether such an exercise is required at all? For a man of PM stature, a renowned World famous Economist, must not soil his image in this political one upmanship. He became politician and PM as well by chance and not by choice. Its time for him to redeem himself. Surprise everyone by driving down to Rashtrapathi Bhavan before the crucial vote and tender resignation of his cabinet. If he does so, he will be hailed. But if he faces the vote and loses, then it would be a sorry affair for him and his party. The political reading is he should quit for the sake of his own honour. It would be for the first time that the ruling Party would be voted out. This is unprecedented and he should not allow this to happen.Once the Left, main party withdrew, he should have resigned. Still not too late Mr.PM,quit.

PM decided to resign on that friday when inflation rate becomes 11.35 from 8 .He decide to resign because of this not because of N-deal. He know that he will not get majority on 22nd and he is not ready to become PM if UPA will get majority in Next ellection.N-deal is a drama between the UPA,Left&SP to make alliance in UP &fight each other in Kerala & Bengal.
Please someone save my country from all these politicians who are dividing it in the name of every conceivable human emotions. I feel sad look at the below sample 1. Left( Anti American no matter whether it is good or not, Anti middle class, Seudo Secular, Non Progressive) 2. BJP and Right( Pro Trader, Anti Poor, Miniorty Bashing,) 3. Congress and Centerists( Takes both of Bjp and Left and no clear agenda on what has to be done) 4. Kichidi parties ( Catering to Regional Satraps and Regional intrest above National) The list here is all except Left, BJP and Congress Either let BJP or Congress come into power on its own without all the kichidis

Yes .Next PM will save.He will not be Manmohan Singh,LK Advani,Vajpayee,Sonia and Rahul
it is not simple number game but an important transformation of political system from one pattern to another where much efforts were not taken in advance to counter the blocks created by the experiences of people to any govt so far 1991 till date and ultimately the fall of govt most expected after much heat generated
It's interesting to read that the communists and the BJP both are wooing Mayawati for their stand against the government!!!
The "party with a difference" is making a big difference by aligning with the communists who tasted the fruits of power for 4 years without a remorse and with LS elections round the corner talk about inflation, price rise etc. What a sense of timing!!! At last that they did break their slumber at a crucial time is really "Communistic".
L K Advai seems to go the Sitaram Kesri way by being the new "Old Man In a Hurry" - Thats the taste of power in politics.
That Bahenji's Manuvad, illegal assets accoumulated, efforts to break other parties (SP/Congress in UP) does talk about "values" that BJP always talked about standing for.
I was once an admirer of BJP and it's thought processes - the BJP will do good to wait for elections and come to power on it's own rather than still thinking that it is in power - which it did for many months after losing power.
A small prayer "O Lord - save us and our country from such dirty politics and politicians".

Dear Mr IqbalI dont know what are you are saying. You are finding fault with every party against the UPA and every thing correct in parties favouring UPA. What about congress which enjoyed power on the strength of leftists for more then 4 years I am not a supported of left parties by any imagination. But they also can have there point of view. Why should they support Congress for no reason. When you are finding falt with wealth amassed by Mayawati, what about Lalu Yadav, the pillar of UPA and many other leaders. How are Sonia and Rahul Gandhi surviving. What about three convicted MP's for murder supporting UPA, I am talking of convicted and not charged. What happened to congress when there stoog governor of UP, T.V.Rajeshwar did not give permission to prosecute Mayawati as she was close to Congress at that time and the moment SP has come close to congress, CBI has files cases against her. Whta's all this. And what about that greatest fixer Amar Singh who is the biggest spokesman of UPA now. And about BJP, it is not toppling the govt. The left parties withdrew the support and the govt is in minority. It has to seek vote of confidence as did NDA govt. So what do you expect from BJP. To support congress in the confidence vote. It is always the responsibilty of the ruling combination to arrange majority. No opposition party has ever provided numbers to the ruling combine in any democratic country any where in the world. You are trying to praise BJP only to look a neutral person.

Have you read the nuclear deal ? If so, what is objectionable and anti-national about it ? I have read the draft and am surprised that India got away (or will get away !!) with so much for the country inspite of all the IAEA persons helping to draft it!!!
