‘Poll ready’
The Prime Minister’s grandiose declaration in “Standing on the cusp of history, PM says NDA ready for poll” (Inside pages, March 17) comes as no surprise. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is flush with funds and has also ensured that the main Opposition party is hampered in this area. Had the Supreme Court of India not junked the electoral bond scheme, the BJP would have continued to reap a rich harvest.
Unlike the INDIA bloc which continues to flounder on issues such as seat sharing, the BJP has sewed up all alliances and has already released lists of candidates.
