MAHARASHTRA GOVERNMENT FORMATION.

The Governor of Maharashtra has invited Shiv Sena (second largest Party)

seat wise to form the government & the deadline is 07.30 PM tomorrow.

Shiv Sena is in discussion with NCP & Congress, together they can muster 

the required numbers. But the question is whether they are doing the right

thing as they fought the election together with BJP & against the NCP

& the Congress. Shiv Sena says BJP had agreed for the rotational Chief

Minister equally for five years.But BJP says there was no agreement.Is

it not advisable for both the parties to draft the minutes of the discussions

which could have solved the problems.Even small meetings in Companies

draft the minutes of the meeting which will be ratified in the next meeting.

BJP won 105 seats & Shiv Sena won 56 seats together they fought the

election & the people of Maharashtra has given them the mandate to rule 

the state. They should sit & settle the matter & form the government as

NCP  Or the Congress have no mandate to rule the state.The fight between

BJP & Shiv Sena is only for  the CM's chair. It is logical that the party 

which has more numbers will be heading the government.The number 2

party will have number 2 position in the government. BJP being the 

National Party should settle the issue with Shiv Sena instead of allowing

them to seek the support of other parties which have no mandate.It is

good for the state of Maharashtra as the alliance is time tested both at

the centre & in the state.

be announcing the verdict.This will be the historic judgement.

CENTRE TO ANNOUNCE NEXT WAVE OF REFORMS SOON.

Finance Minister Ms.Nirmala Seetharaman said the government will
soon announce its next wave of reforms soon." I am sure we will now
show the commitment for reforms happen fast.That is where the mandate
given to Modi 2.0  will help.We will push forward with those reforms which 
missed the bus last time,but won't miss the bus now' said Nirmala Seetharaman.

NATIONAL POPULATION POLICY - NEED OF THE HOUR.

It is reported that India's population is increasing at an alarming
rate. 17.99% of the world's population is in India.Every 6th person
in the planet is an Indian.As per latest UN Data, India's population
is 135 Crores Or 1.35 billion. It is also reported, by 2025,India will
overtake China as the most populous country in the world.We give
below the population of other countries and also the geographical
area :
                                                                 Population                 Area.(Land mass)
                                                                  ( in Crores)              (in Mn. Sq.Kms)

1.India                                                           135.00                     3.287

2.China                                                          138.64                     9.597

3.USA                                                               32.57                     9.834

4.Russia                                                           14.45                     17.10

5.Canada                                                           3.65                       9.985

6.Australia                                                        2.46                        7.692.

As per this available data,India has more densely populated  when
compared to its geographical area.Above all, we have people coming
from across the borders from Bangladesh & Myanmar.Assam &
W.Bengal are the states affected by illegal immigrants. Some short sighted
politicians are not worried about the gravity of the situation as they only
look for the votes to retain in power.

Although it is late, we should now address the twin problems of population
growth in the country and also illegal immigrants on a priority basis.
As our natural resources and also water are limited,it will lead to chaos
and unrest if the needs of the growing population are not met.

NDA FORMING THE GOVERNMENT AT THE CENTRE - CLEAR MANDATE-SAYS EXIT POLLS.

EDITORIAL.

NDA Forming The government at the Centre- Clear mandate for Modi.
All the exit polls say NDA forming the government at the centre.
Narendra Modi will return as Prime Minister of the Country again.
Though Congress can get satisfaction that they have improved their
position,it is a poor consolation.The Mahagatbhandan OR anti Modi
Group should soul search & should learn few lessons.In the Maha
Gatbhandan,there is no one who can get the confidence of the entire 
people of the country for the post of Prime Minister.Take for Example 
Ms.Mayawathi, her party drew a blank in parliamentary poll in 2014,
Akhilesh may win few seats in U.P,Chandra Babu Naidu,who is
struggling to win against YSR Congress lead by Jagan,Sharad Pawar,
who may win few seats in Maharashtra,,Ms.Mamta Banerjee, is shaken
now as BJP may perform well &  may give her a jolt.In the opposition,the
winner will be DMK lead by Stalin.The main feature in this election will be 
BJP which  will have all India Presence & CPI  & CPI(M)  may win 
1 OR 2 seats or may  even draw a blank.

FEW LESSONS OPPOSITION MUST LEARN:
1.Ganging up against Narendra Modi  with Single Agenda Modi Hatao has
   not  worked.All the opposition parties & their leaders went openly & personally
   against Narendra Modi.
2.Chowkidhar Chor  will not work as the people who say that, themselves 
   should hear the voice of their conscience. People should not be taken
   for granted.
3.Dynasty Politics have no role to play in Indian politics.
4.The new generation of voters donot tolerate mere rhetorics or slogans.
5.There is no leader worth the name to challenge Narendra Modi as on today.
6.Negative politics & so called SECULAR rhetorics will never work as the
   people have understood the real meaning of Secularism.
