they announce shashi tharoor as their pm candidate?

as you know, his wife just committed suicide in hotel leela, so since they have not named rahul due to fear, they might capitalise on this due to the woman kicking the bucket so close to elections.

i remember in 1991 bjp was about to win but during the later phases of polls, rajiv got blown up and congress won later on! advani had a great chance to be a hindu warrior pm, but rajivs death got in the way.

will sunanda pushkar's death prevent modi from achieving his destiny of becoming leader of our nation?

your views, please.

What !!!! Sunanda Pushkar dead 😲 There was a spat on twitter with a pak journalist but it was thought to be resolved with tharoor tweeting that his account had been hacked. This is tragic and you already thinking politics 😕

Nah, Shashi Tharoor isn't a darling' like Rajiv Gandhi was. The attitude to him is favorable, but not significantly so.

Also considering the twitter controversy and other things, it would reek of desperate opportunism. At least the intelligent voter would think twice.

That being said, with politics, especially in India - You never know.

maya behenji, momta didi, jaya amma, to name a few. The horse trading could be a fierce battle . Bechara kejriwal will be quite lost 😆

I feel sad for the lady , she was going through a medical ailment , caught up with the twitter gate and took to the social media to air the her life. She must have been under tremendous pressure and stress , but she should have valued her life more than a man or the society tags.
@Mr A, Neither is Tharoor a big leader like R.Gandhi nor does this unfortunate incident has any bearing on Indian politics.

LS 2014, remains a Modi coronation for now , it's all about the number now.

More than politics i hv empathy, i feel the accountable of unfortunate death of this lady is on so called elite on Tharoor and educated twitter class. All corruption charges of Tharoor this lady took upon herself who she may felt betrayed. The other blame is on educated twitter class , who slam this lady for her emotional outburst. Agree its wrong on her part to open her personal life in social platform but she forgot that we so called educated class happy to redicule other on look, character, emotion, expression of others and demean other . We r happy to live in compartment in materialistic world . It is hardly find we show sympathy and empathy to other person. May be she forgot the reality and took this virtual and artificial world to seek solution for her, she forgot that seeking happiness empathy sympathy is rare in this virtual world. May be she try to live in limelight and died in the same. RIP.

It won't work, first of all people want to get rid of congress and second, sashi tharoor's image has only been tarnished further by this incident, he may actually be one of the reasons his wife died. So I don't think it's going to work out that way.
