When people speak of BJP being an 'election machine,' it is actually development and progress that is BJP's electoral machine.
The Lok Sabha election is not a contest between political parties. It is a fight between Modi-Shah, and the country. Only when these two people are removed, will it be a proper contest between parties.
Such will be a great lesson of peace: teaching men that what they cannot take by an election, neither can they take it by war.
I am not joining politics. I don't intend to contest election. I am happy to be back to doing normal things, be it films or other work.
I will never contest election in Nigeria. Whenever my husband retires, I will go back home with him.
My association with my parents and family will end the day they will ask ticket to contest election or seek ministership.
BJP is doing "gathbandhan". Congress is doing "brashtbandhan" and the criminals are doing "lathbandhan". Our politics is about coalitions. Every coalition where the BJP is part of as leaders, has been successful.
I will not contest my parliamentary seat in a sad election that will not produce a Parliament capable of endorsing a realistic reform agenda for Greece.
There is no rule or tradition in the BJP to forbid leaders to contest polls after they attain the age of 75.
I believe the BJP should respect each and every political party, and the BJP should evaluate and consider each party's relevance in Indian politics and then formulate its own strategy.
Although BJP and Congress are two sides of same coin, BJP is far more communal. Since BJP came to power, there is an atmosphere of hatred, and there is a takeover of the democratic institutions.
In 2001-2002, I told the president that the election was supposed to take place when the war was over, at a time when we could return to peaceful life. We agreed upon that. However, I can see now that the election cannot be delayed any longer.
I appeal to Muslims and Hindus, beware of the election plans of the BJP.
If I contest elections in a federation, I will not get even four votes. It's all politics and money.
Every election matters. Anyone that tells you otherwise doesn't understand politics. That said, not every election sends sweeping messages that are easy to discern, but every election provides lessons worth learning.
Secularism for the Congress is merely a slogan while for the BJP it is an article of faith. Secularism is about votebank politics for the Congress, while it is about 'India first' for the BJP.
