Will Raj Nath Singh replace Amit Shah?
Conspiracy has started against Narendra Modi and buzz around in RSS
and VHP circles say that Amit Shah may go to Gujarat as Chief Minister
and Raj Nath Singh may replace him because of Delhi Assembly elections
outcome. One can only wait and watch.
AAP gets second chance, should move step by step
whispersinthecorridors had almost a year ago predicted that AAP was
on verge of implosion !
It was the conclusion of the views expressed by the surfers of the whispersinthecorridors
who were asked - Will the AAP get fractured by running very fast ?
And it came true.
AAP's last 49 days tenure was about chaos, self-righteousness and ultimately,
hara-kiri. He flip-flopped embarrassingly about taking a large official
house; one minister launched a vicious (and regrettably, in a narrow
sense, popular) night raid on some black women; others conducted vigilante
raids on public institutions. Kejriwal himself was in such a hurry that
he too sat on dharna against the police.
Now that AAP has got a second chance; AK's second iteration needs to
be about governance.
There is a saying "If you want to start a journey of 1000 miles
begin with a single step ".
However, with Kejriwal again pulling off a victory, lightning has struck
the national capital second time and now he needs to use it to generate
electricity.
In a nutshell, Delhiites have given AK a second chance; unless it is
grabbed, it could be the last AAP government in the country.
No LoP in Delhi assembly?
Perhaps for the first time Delhi assembly will be without Leader of
Opposition (LoP). It is because no party has 10% MLAs as per requirement.
BJP is the only opposition party who won 3 seats. Congress couldn't
win even a single seat.

DEBATE
Why change in procedure ? What is the problem in Collegium way. The
judges highly experienced can appoint fittest Judge than the appointment
commission. Instead of changing the system - improve set guidelines
for recommendations and selections.
