POLITICS

Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied.

Assembly Polls : bureaucracy, a divided house

Results of five State Assembly Polls are round the corner but bureaucracy at the Centre seems to be a divided house. Even Babus of concern states are having different opinions. During informal chat many babudom were heard on party line.

Resorts booked in two states ?

Some political parties  have booked resorts in Madhya Pradesh  and Chhattisgarh  after exit polls show close contest.

Who will be the kingmakers in MP and Chhattisgarh ?

If one was to go by the MP and Chhattisgarh exit poll results, ‘poll of polls’ in both the states don’t predict clear majority for either the BJP or the Congress. Who will be the kingmaker if such a situation arises ?

Exit Polls.....

Still in Shimla.... today I meet my respected friend..... retired Senior Bureaucrat.....at a Cafe with a breathtaking view... over soups ..freshly baked rolls and salads  we get chatting...

Respected Friend: Durbaris giving spins to Michel's interrogation...didn't know CBI reports to them... one News Arm of a News Group reports he did not say a word ....the other Arm says he sang like a Canary bird...
Me: It'll be interesting to know the faces behind The Family and AP......though I think both pretty obvious...

RF: And the Durbari beneficiaries of the 6 crore Michel doled out to get suitable Content printed and aired!!
M: Hear Saudi Oil Minister has said they will take Modi's views on Oil Prices into consideration while deciding future Oil prices..
RF: Trump and Modi can be credited for prices coming down....Modi was able to convince Trump on India buying Oil from Iran......
M: This is a fact Modi has created a new stature for India's PM and of course for himself too..... personally his honesty... work ethics..... creating a huge fan following for him..
RF: Why ....he has fans in Pakistan too.... many Pakistanis want their PM to be like Modi...
M: Now what do all those who keep on attacking Modi on his overseas trips have to say...
RF: State Elections.... if BJP scrapes through ..... EVMs fixed..... if BJP loses a State... EVMs fixed ..... loss would have been by greater margin otherwise... and via fixed EVMs won the other States...
... if BJP wins decisively... EVMs fixed...
M: We need to take the Exit Polls with a pinch of salt..... because Darbaari Channels showing outright loss for BJP....
RF: Yes.... aim being... on counting day when BJP wins  they can start their EVM ronna dhonna.....see.... when Exit Polls predicted a loss for BJP how did BJP win...
M: One Media Group takes the cake... its one News Channel predicts win for BJP... the other one predicts loss for BJP... its Print arm gives a muddled pic...
RF: These Exit Polls are a joke....majority of rural folk especially will never let Pollsters know about who they voted for...they are suspicious of Shehris as it is...
M: Cities do throw up a somewhat true pic... 
RF: Usually...be it Cities or Villages... it's  shallow and faulty sampling that causes inaccuracies..
M: And then the biases.... some Surveys do a mockery and dish out results as per biase... usually monetary caused biase...
RF: Some Darbaari Channels showing win for Congress in all 5 States.... but still Congress crying about EVMs.... 
M: Relative of Vadra ....tweeting the raids on Vadra are to distract Public from EVM fixing....
RF: Netas usually get somewhat of an idea about the outcome.... so Congress EVM ronna dhonna is a pointer that the Exit Polls showing Congress sweep are bunkum...
M: CNN which prides itself  on its accuracy was grossly off the mark in the US Presidential Election...despite the very large sample .....technology application.
RF: Worst case scenario for BJP.... if they lose a couple of States...take it in their stride...
M: Silver lining ...usually  electorate votes just the opposite in General Elections !!!!
RF: These are just Battles.... War is 2019 General Election...and between now and 2019 election I expect a lot to happen.... groundbreaking... some taboos will be broken...Holy Cows will be touched for one...

I nod my head in agreement..... we pay the  tab and move out ......
