Politics&Elections'2014

Dear all,
Welcome.

Media: Media player, India today, had released its list of powerful persons. In the event of upcoming general elections, issues like welfare schemes and such campaigning is more likely to have precedence over important factors like Anti-corruption movement. Naturally, Anna Hazare had not been included in the list for its obvious reasons as also as the fact that the movement had been derailed from its gainful objectives. Fifteen days of hunger protest against Delhi State's Electricity price hike had been a big failure. AAP party had also been a delineated segment of this movement with "Team Anna" dissolved.

NDA/BJP: BJP would not increase its tension with JD(U) but it is also not ready for an agreement with it too. It would criticize Modi for making political grounds but BJP would be retaliate it. As per BJP leaders, such veto would not be granted to any party. Bihar core group amidst presence of BJP President and Opposition leader, Rajya Sabha had discussed over the matter and are ready for any repercussion. The decision would be taken by Central leadership.
BJP leaders had told clear that they should be ready for big fight and forget petty squables. As per party spokesman, NDA had been in existence since past 17 years. Bihar's development had also been an agenda. Besides, all other issues had been discussed. Core group would decide upon the strategy.

After media news, a statement was issued by him. A meeting was arranged at Opposition leader's house, Jaitley, at his Delhi's residence during July'12 wherein Bihar CM, too, was present. In it, political scenario was discussed upon and strategy for the upcoming elections too.
[A] Ex-President had clarified aboout his assurance of not making Modi as PM's candidate. He had never told Bihar's CM that BJP would not make Modi as PM candidate.

[B] As per Home Minister, there is no threat to Gujarat CM, Modi. The requisite State is being informed in such a situation. He didn't spoke about delay in NCTC except that there is no need to talk about it.  

Hanging Secrecy: As per Home minister, the execution of death sentence needs secrecy and it's disclosure had resulted in stopping of hanging for acquittals as they had gone to the Supreme Court. As per him, the information is to be provided to the family but due to less time, Afzal guru's family could not be informed.
Already, the hanging order is given only when all Court procedures are finished and President rejects the mercy petition. No violation of rights is being done if hanging is done in secrecy.

Bihar Package: PM had, in CCEA meeting held today, approved Bihar's package under present twelvth Five year plan amounting around 12,000 crores INR. During past plant, Bihar got about 6,468 crores INR. This is likely to affect General Elections results. It is to note that JD(U) is openly opposing Gujarat's CM, Modi as PM candidate. This had made him an ally of Congress led UPA. It had made Finance minister change the definition of backward States. As per I & B Minister, every administrative decision is not done keeping in view the political state of affairs. However, it would be allocated as per requirement. Under GRGF, social economic development would be done with the allocated amount under the scheme implemented since 2006. It is also to note that earlier too, WB CM, had used such tactics for getting package.

With regards,

Original_app_mssg(2) Mercy Petitions

Delay in justice had been cited in many of the pending mercy petitions before the President of India. But as per Supreme Court, it cannot be the sole basis of such pardoning. Recently, in a matter regarding 1993 Mumbai blasts the judgement given by the said Court's Benc15 & h had been referenced. Besides delay, other factors had to be considered.

In Triveni ben's case, the said Bench had given detailed decision. As per it, the time taken during Court proceedings would not be considered as delay. It would start from the petition date upto the execution of sentence as per retired High Court justice, Chattisgarh. But as per Allahabad's HC, it could be a basis for such petition. He had talked about special directions for Governor's & President's pardoning right. But such questions are violation of those rights and had been rejected. It had been argued by counsel of Ranga Billa case.
Had the delay been the basis for pardoning, Dhananjay Chatterjee's petition could have been accepted. Also, the Court had rejected such pleas in Indira Gandhi's execution case. The filing of petition by third party is a subject matter of discussion. The petition had been rejected on the basis of locus(right to file). If a PIL is rejected for acquittals, then they themselves file such petitions. A case cited in this regard is that of Ex-Justice Ramasamy, whose wife had filed a case. In that case, the five member bench had taken undertaking from the said Justice that he would be bound by the decision, whatever it may be. Later came the third party's petition.
