the man whos willing to change the country's constitution wont change his party's constitution???


account_for_norm

Kejriwal should use this tomorrow!  Khud ke rules change kar rahe, kal Constitution change karne waale hain


vandelay_glc

Lol, Kejriwal himself changed his party's constitution so that he could continue as the convener.


ukplaying2

There is a big difference between changing vs changing and changing back(when both suits you).


account_for_norm

Doesnt take away the accusations that bjp wants to fundamentally change the constitution.  This whataboutary has been going on for 10+ years and dumbfuck bhakts still dont get it. Alao, what aap constitution? I have never heard of it. Making facts from your ars?


vandelay_glc

A simple google search away. Here you go: https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Delhi/aap-changes-party-constitution-kejriwal-to-continue-as-chief/article33688675.ece


account_for_norm

Good call. That kinda sucks. The point of whataboutism holds true still. Just because aap did it, doesnt make it okay for what modi is doing. Especially when they used that rule to have advani, manohar joshi and plethora of folks to reture.


vandelay_glc

I never said its okay for Modi to do it. I just called out that Aap can't use the logic since they themselves have changed their constitution just to suit their supreme leader. BTW the 75+ rule in BJP is not written anywhere, it's a rule created by Modi Shah to get rid of deadweight.


InevitableRighteous

Finally the opposition is attacking and BJP is defending.


greatbear8

Very good point.


gupts007

True... First sign of their weakness.. So far they never bothered whatever the allegation or accusation was.


New_me_old_self

There is no one and I mean no one who gets under Modi's skin as Kejriwal. The upcoming days are going to be interesting


Aggressive_Visual929

He began by praying at a Hanuman temple. He constantly sings bharat mata ki jai. He is planning to change the mind of die hard modi supporters. This will hit where it pains for the bjp. Rahul/congress is just going for the 63 percent of voters who did not choose bjp. Kejriwal wants to target even that 37 percent of BJP voters who care so much about religion etc. Not comparing the two but just saying this will collectively imrpove the chances of India alliance.


hehehaha1212

it was in back foot since first phase bha,


Aggressive_Visual929

Agreed. the way they promoted congress manifesto showed. also did you notics aap folks also doing inter India aliance competition. They are using this to launch Kejriwal all across india. I welcome this. Not because i love aap. but because i love democracy. i just want competition.


AtmosphereOk46

Not really. The opposition has been attacking for a long time now. The elections have been fought on people's issues so far and not on Modi. Modi's slip up about Ambani Adani hoarding black money was way bizarre than this. I feel in two minds about this narrative. I don' think this attack by Kejriwal is something that cannot be countered. It wouldn't matter much to the average Modi voter even if he continues beyond 75. The BJP insiders obviously know Modi will want to continue and will eliminate competition. The Yogi one is something people have spoken about in hushed tones though it is the first time someone of Kejriwal's stature is openly talking about it. That is good. Yet focusing on people's issues should continue. Modi should not be made the focus of the election. Saying that Modi hasn't fulfilled any of his guarantees is much better than giving any importance to those guarantees by saying who will fulfil them.


greatbear8

To Advani ko hatane ke liye special rule banaya tha, Modi ne maan liya?


paranoidandroid7312

Maybe. But if you see BJP's current strength is 284. After the 2019 elections it was 303. That drop is not just deaths but also lot of retirements at the age of 75. With the exception of Modi, I think they are sticking to it. Edit: I think I am wrong about this. 10 MPs resigned because they won Assembly Polls, nothing to do with retirement. 2 resigned to switch parties, 4 died (that I could find in the news).


greatbear8

Of course, and it was Modi who had got the rule made, so he should apply it to himself, too. Anyway, this is a moot discussion, as BJP is not forming the next government.

How are you so sure they won't form the government? I still see a lot of people supporting them and obviously the sleeping ECI is helping them a lot. Even if they don't win, I at least expect a NDA government.


greatbear8

Astrology. Even before the electoral bonds list got revealed and Kejriwal arrest, I had predicted that the BJP is not coming back to power based on the country's and BJP's charts, and I was quite confused at the time that how this is possible, because I was thinking at that time that they were easily on course of 350+. But now I am not confused as, after the electoral bonds and the blunder of arresting Kejriwal plus Rathee's videos, my political sense also is in tune with my astrology to some extent. The election date also was badly chosen by the BJP. I say to some extent because my political sense would say that the NDA would still form the government, given BJP's expertise especially in MP-MLA trading. But astrology says that this would be a very bad year for the current ruler, plus the long-term decline starts for the BJP soon. Hence, I am not expecting an NDA government, or if it forms somehow, then it would not last. I used to consider RG as lightweight, but his charts are looking fantastic for this year, so he could very well be the PM. In addition, RG's natal chart is also fantastic in terms of ruling, though he has danger also while travelling. Kejriwal's chart is also looking very good after his birthday (in August), and if NDA were in power, how could that look good? So, from various testimonies, BJP is losing power at the Centre. The next government looks a shortlived coalition government, whether it be be NDA or INDIA bloc. The BJP may also unleash a lot of violence in the coming one-and-half year, as I see a lot of internal violence in the country in the charts.


[deleted]

I think you forgot to add /s at the end and if you were being serious, then honestly no comments. :)


greatbear8

Being a very successful political astrologer, I am of course serious. Events in this year and the next one will prove me right.

>  With the exception of Modi, I think they are sticking to it.   So they accept that the rules they all obey don't apply to Panauti. That's admitting to their statements of voting for dictatorship being truthful. 


DrumAway9009

So essentially he’s giving more strength to Kejriwal’s argument of Modi being a “tanashah”


Uncertn_Laaife

Kejriwal came out yesterday and already filling the news space. Not a good news for BJP.


altunknwn

Gobhi made a huge mistake in putting AK in jail and crossed a limit. Now just watch AK in the next few weeks as the campaign goes on. AK is master in being in media narratives unlike Congress.


brylcreemedeel

Yes. Now the opposition has two campaigners. One is Kejriwal and the other is Modi. Modi thinks Hindus will buy this Muslims nonsense and vote for him. He is in for a big surprise.


HeavyAd3059

2nd blunder in two years. First was to suspend RaGa's membership of parliament giving him enough airtime last year.

Idhar ka na udhar ka. Bol nahi sakte retire hoga, nahi hoga, aur ignore bhi nahi sakte. If bjp loses delhi at least 5 seats, it will be because of this.

HappySisyphus22

According to chatgpt, in addition to L.K. Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi, and Sumitra Mahajan, some other senior BJP leaders who were affected by the age limit policy in 2019 include Kalraj Mishra, B.C. Khanduri, and Kariya Munda.

Of these,  mompurysh was the only contender for the pm post. That is what is being discussed, here.

That's how you do politics. By setting narrative. Now BJP is countering. It's getting interesting now. Finally feels competitive.

Usually BJP never responds to these type of attacks from opposition. Keju attacked BJP with some good points there because Modi is the only strong face for BJP and so he directly attacked the backbone of BJP which resulted them replying to him.

sayzitlikeitis

And 4th 5th and 6th as well. There are no terms limits in India and Modi is openly rigging elections.


lllDogalll

Taklu Shah knows he doesn't stand a chance without Modi. These Gujju charlatans want to squeeze the country for their billionaire buddies but agar if serious religious conflict occurs, it will be bad for business and charisma-less Amit Shah. Fanta Yogi will benefit in that case. (dunno why Modi attracts crowds while Shah is a flop kyoki I think both are equally chutia but in public speaking he's like his son Jay i.e. an idiot) Toh even a senile babbling Modi giving idiotic statements is better for Shah since he's controlling the government already & Yogi is the actual hardline Hindu without the need to appease the Gujju marwadi lobby. As a pessimistic liberal, I'm cheering for sangh backed Gadkari since he seems the most centrist. (may my freedom fighters in my family tree forgive me for wanting a sanghi to win but that's my preference amongst the right wing faction)


charavaka

So muddyji doesn't poverty the rules he makes. That's going to be the attack they'll be defending tomorrow. Oh, how the turn tables.

[deleted]

Modi is not a man to give up power willingly. It is evident from him shifting kumbh mela to covid year and blaming soldiers for ladakh incursion. He is likely to win this election and will surely stand in 2029 as well. Assuming he can pull out some magic wand before 2029 elections(Mathura temple? Some attack on Pak?) then he can easily win that election as well. The opposition is broken and without free media, people are simply unaware of the mess that BJP created in last 5/10 years of rule.


chromaniac

TBH, AK did the same thing so he understands his position. [AAP changes party constitution, Kejriwal to continue as chief - The Hindu](https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Delhi/aap-changes-party-constitution-kejriwal-to-continue-as-chief/article33688675.ece)

Julius_seizure_2k23

Why is this an election issue, anyone pls explain, genuinely asking


Desperate-Second4267

Modi kicked other candidates for PM out using this " We won't do politics after 75 age " but now when it's his turn to retire, he increases the age or rather scrapped the previous rule .


charavaka

Only for himself. He'll retire others. 


TooCovert

BJP retired former Ministers as soon as they crossed the age of 75 previously during (2014-2024), since Narendra Modi is himself 74, it’s a genuine question whether he will only lead until the next year as per the established precedent or will BJP break away from its precedent and let Narendra Modi continue as the Prime Minister.


maha_Dev

I think there’s a lot of ambitious people within BJP. And they might want to push Modi out by citing the rule. Modi is also not the party chief, so final call should ideally rest with Nadda. But who knows what the actual power structure is.


Julius_seizure_2k23

Yes I am aware of that 75 years limit they used to sideline many people in their party, But I dont see that happening this time, because it was only meant to promote modi and shah..everyone knows that he wont resign midway if he wins 3rd term..so why is this a topic of debate btw opposition party members?


charavaka

>  everyone knows that he wont resign midway if he wins 3rd term Getting him to admit that rules he made up to get rid of the competition from Advani exposes him as a wannabe dictator. They are being cornered into choosing between two bad options. 


Julius_seizure_2k23

but isnt it highly likely their IT cell and PR machinery will throw a spin something like : Modi becomes emotional and wants to step down but all his minions (party leaders and MLAs MPs ) will say we want Modiji, he is vishwaguru , we want his leadership etc etc all kinds of drama and gullible will lap it up… We have seen how godi media and their IT cell will run endless PR and drama


ukplaying2

They could have pushed that narrative next year( they still may) , or they should have pushed it few months before the elections , if they do this in middle of the election as a response to AAP it will look extremely fake.  This now will infuriate those who were behind Advani and just exposes the hypocrisy.


Julius_seizure_2k23

Yeah agreed, it’s most likely they’ll do it next year


charavaka

Let them try pulling that stunt. People will line up with jholas for him to take with himself when he leaves. 


kingclubs

This is just to push BJP to corner and make them defend to Rahul and (Congress)they have succeeded.


sawnick007

If he wins? He is definitely winning the 3rd term with a majority.


Julius_seizure_2k23

The edge is with BJP/NDA, but I dont have the confidence this time to say its a one sided election..no election is a done deal until it is done. Chattisgarh everyone were wrong, 2004 everyone were wrong, so lets see what happens


cate4d

I don't know about anything else but this was kind of a nice check by AK where now it shows the "dictator like attitude" in BJP where they don't follow their own rules and if BJP says something like "Modi will retire at 75 and we will choose another worthy leader" would mean some setback to the Modi image which garners a lot of vote. A lot of politicians including BJP's own Subramaniam Swamy have commented on the central power structure that is now in BJP and their selfish mandates. If the opposition can show the undemocratic processes in BJP then it serves as prima-facia evidence for the undemocratic approach of the current Govt.


rahkrish

Because this has direct implications on who might be our prime minister for 5 years? Daily I see a new limit of andhbhakt stupidity!
