MNS chief Raj Thackeray is out to ‘expose’ how BJP has failed the people, backing up his claims with facts, figures, newspaper archives, audio & video clips.
Raj Thackeray, who has seen his MNS get sidelined in Maharashtra politics, was hoping to be part of opposition alliance. Now he's unsure if his party should even contest.
The issue of inequality has assumed the blazing limelight at a time when inequality in India is said to be higher than it was in the British Raj. It's a ripe situation for half-truths and incendiary statements.
Speaking at launch of economist Surjit Bhalla’s book, S Jaishankar also highlights Gen Z’s engagement with ‘reel culture’, which has 'promoted awareness, created interest in many subjects'.
Germany’s erstwhile Christian Democratic Union govt, led by Angela Merkel, prevented sale of small arms to police forces in states they perceived had ‘bad human rights record’.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
The author is badly mistaken. The fact is that Raj Thackeray has made a total mess of it. All the so called research made by his team consists of half truths, innuendoes, morphed videos and blatant lies. Today, in a counter video- show, Raj Thackeray was fully exposed by Ashish Shelar, the head Mumbai BJP. The illustrative case was a young girl in Modi’s meeting reciting a Ramayana song. Now this video was morphed to appear as if the young girl was saying “ Rahul PappuHai’ and shown in Raj Thackeray’s meeting. Is it not a criminal offence to show morphed videos in a public meetings.? There are many such instances where Raj has made blunders by displaying incomplete references leading to harmful and defamatory conclusions. The reason for this desperation appears to be that his party stands on the verge of political extinction. Many of his followers have left him. The sole MLA belonging to MNS has joined Shiv Sena. This is a desperate gamble to regain lost political recognition.
I think Modi govt has not let loose ED/IT on Raj Thackeray, possibly because they believe that Raj’s damage value may be minimal. There are multi-cornered contests in Maharashtra with the RPI factions fighting on many seats separately and thus eating into Cong-NCP votes. So the BJP-SS alliance may be believing that they can’t be hurt much.
You should really read Robert Bolt’s “A Man for All Seasons.”
If you think it is ok to quote/retweet/praise the Devil because he hates the same people you do, what happens when he has destroyed all his enemies and then it’s down to you and him? You have nothing left to sell at that point, for your soul has already been mortgaged to him, bit by bit, and there is nothing left of it that’s your own.
Thank you Mr. Vij !!! I am SO TIRED of “see the liberal hypocrisy!” – why does everyone, left-right-center, calling-oneself-liberal-or-not, feel free to imagine what a “liberal” ought or ought not to do?
What a level of hypocricy? Yesterday’s goonda leader, who was only interested in how much money his goons have collected everyday from hapless citizens and shopkeepers through threats and actual violence, is now being hailed by the likes of this writer as a new messiah!
Bye bye any honesty, welcome opportunism!
