Nine Supreme Court judges had in 1994 settled ways to establish if a CM has majority in House or not. Last week, the court was raising concern over horse-trading.
Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan said the Congress-Shiv Sena-NCP alliance has a majority in the Maharashtra Assembly as he referred to the floor test Wednesday.
SC orders immediate appointment of a pro-tem Speaker who will administer oath to all MLAs before 5 pm Wednesday, after which the floor test will begin.
Whether it’s Bhatti’s takes on corruption, or Twitter asking Anil Kapoor to be Maharashtra CM, pop culture has captured politics in an eerily accurate manner.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
Very convincing.Entire problem is because we did not develop institutes like JNU and University of Hyderabad all around the country at least one per state.There should be built in provision for hike in fees scholarships etc once in a year or two.Instead if we want to increase lump sum once in 5 or 10 years there would be resistance.U canot increase fees hostel charges everything in same year.Instead of scholarships 100percent Govt can give 50percent in form of interest free loan and enable students to repay in 5-10 years.All this requires imaginative thinking not just from Government but from parents and society.Sunitas parents need not think about this but Sunita should start thinking at the end of her JNUnstay asto how more of her cousins get higher education and how she can and should also pay for it.
Any further guidelines the apex court can frame would be welcome. However, it may not be possible to completely preclude unconstitutional behaviour by constitutional authorities. 2. A friend gave me a tutorial this morning. He said, There are 160 MLAs and 40 ministerial slots. Add some important corporations. That still leaves a large contingent of disappointed folk. Now someone drops by with half a billion apiece for a score of them. Something similar happened in Karnataka. People at the apex must set higher standards for others to emulate.
I agree. Even for the Apex Court with all its wisdom, it is not possible to tame and discipline the politicians. Remember, a governor is also a semi-retired politician having loyalty to the appointing authority – not the President who is just the signing authority but the Prime Minister and the ruling party.
