Hardik Patel joins a list of demagogues in the subcontinent who pick up an ethnic, religious or caste group’s grievance and build it into a persecution complex.
Hardik Patel has definitely helped Congress made some gains in Saurashtra and Mehsana; in North Gujarat, Congress wins 15 out of 27 seats while BJP bags 11 seats.
Despite the two clear victories for the BJP, Monday’s results have opened up the political space which had seemed locked and sealed until the summer of 2019.
With 20.2 percent of its total loans in default by the end of last year, Bangladesh had the weakest banking system in Asia. Despite reforms, it will take time to recover.
This world is being restructured and redrawn by one man, and what’s his power? It’s not his formidable military. It’s trade. With China, it turned on him.
Patels are one of the richest communities around. Demanding reservation is shameful for them. Rightminded Patels should come forward and boycott this Hardik Patel who is playing politics over dignity of Patels.
Allowing reservation to people with annual upto Rs 8 lakhs is highly regressive.It is disturbing that there is no voice from within the section itself who are getting affected by this.Reservation tool needs much more scientic aproach to get optimum result.
Think of a raj thackrey with a million followers? Raj already has bigger following. You should note that followership doesn’t always result in votes because there are other issues than narrow interests.
Well , Shekharji , while there can’t be two opinions of what you said , Congress basking in the reflected glory of the stripling Hardik Patel should be of concern for everybody and the future of India ?
Think of Hardik Patel as a wild, unbroken pony. The Congress stable in Gujarat has no thoroughbreds, as the results show. May not be a bad idea to take him inside the tent, with the compromises that would entail on both sides. The Bengal Congresx would have been so much better off if it was being led by Mamata Banerjee.
You need to look into saurastra region where BJP lost 14 seats of patidar plus hardik has filled only two candidate and both of then won from Congress..in that content hardik is not a looser it just battle turns between urban people to rural people …

Patel do not need any reservation. I feel that Patidhar Agitation is unwanted and should not be encouraged by any political party.
Brilliant !!
