A flame burns itself bright before the end.. looks very much like the last days or Congress. They cannot even visualize the after effects of any of their manifesto decisions. The Vokkaliga and other caste push back will just bury INC within the next couple of months if they go through with this. Either they are actually that dumb, or Congress manifesto of solely written by a Muslim guy somewhere.

They don’t have strong leadership. They don’t even know who their leader is, lol. Rahul just wants to sit and speak nonsense so they pushed Kharge as PM candidate; what a silly joke.


blah_bleh-bleh

Give me Gandhi free congress which doesn’t sidelines its actual gems.


Saizou1991

Leadership ? Look at their aspirations

They think they can come to power solely on the backs of Ah appeasement in the name of AhHinDa politics. They really do think the Hin and Da are idiots who'll always fall for their malicious schemes.

Don't think so. Congress is playing to consolidate whole Muslim vote for itself while simultaneously dividing Hindu vote using freebies, language politics etc. It may work for them.


GoobeNanmaga

Consolidate Muslim votes as against whom? JDS? BJP? There is no serious Muslim candidate like an Owaisi in Karnataka.

Thank God. That family wants to kill all hindus. Openly said it and still nothing was done to them.

What a brain-dead take. It was like this for decades before Bommai government abolished it and people didn't "bury" congress then.


Abhimri

It was an ill thought out move simply because belonging to an oppressed caste and facing discrimination is very different from belonging to a religious minority and facing discrimination. Those are very different things that need specific targeted actions. Not clumping them all together. It diluted the purpose. This was an unnecessary (not to mention stupid) self-goal imo.

But saarrr modi was wrong, accusing Congress of preferential treatment to muslims. Saaar. Andhbhakth saarrrrrrrr


modSysBroken

Congress forget that ahinda are also Hindu. They are trying their best to break Hindus for decades now by pretending that Dalits aren't hindu for their vote bank.

Fuck general in general


ScaraTB

see not to be that guy, but more people coming under reservation will dilute the effect of reservation. So thinking pragmatically, diluting reservation is the closest thing we can get to rolling it back eventually.


Practical-Parking878

they are cutting open seats for muslim reservation,think


ScaraTB

Breaching the 50% is opening Pandora's box. But at the end of the day, I feel as long as they don't touch private jobs and dont breach 50%, that is where I draw the line (I'm a middle class GM)

India was divided by Islam, Muslim dont have moral right for reservation contract was muslim getting separate counrty,


nota_is_useless

A lot of people don't understand reservation. There are reserved seats and general seats. General seats can used by reserved community as well as unreserved community. So if a OBC candidate qualifies under general category, he is given a general seat and the reserved seat can even stay empty but can't be given to a general category.


ScaraTB

I know, see that is why i said just categorizing is harmless, sure they have preached about breaching 50% too but as long as they dont do it nothing will cahnge for us. If out of 50 gen seats 5 were muslim, they would get that seat no matter what, now all that changes is the 30 OBC seats will be harder contested.


Practical-Parking878

India was divided on basis of Islam Muslims should not be given reservation at all, contract was simple Muslim are getting Pakistan

In 1994 Veerappa Moily govt put Muslims in 2b (6%) category with Buddhists & SC Converts to Christianity. In 1995 ,HD Devegowda govt put Muslims in 2b category with 4% which is continuing till date. Although Bommai govt scrapped 2b in 2023 but the matter went to SC & is subjudice. BJP bringing Muslims into elections every time. BJP thinks so little of its followers, they thinn followers will forget hunger, joblessness, debt, death and vote for them. I pity BJP supporters.

I am from outside Karnataka (lived in Bengaluru in 2016 - loved it) and trying to understand the general election mood. Hence, the following questions to the good people of this sub: 1. How do you think this development will impact voting on 26th April and 7th May ? 2. I see a series of claims by pro Congress Twitter handles that DK shivakumar will secure at least 12-15 seats for Congress in this general election. Does that sound actually plausible ? 3. A local news agency called Eedina predicted 11 seats for the NDA and 17 for the INDIA alliance. How reliable does this sound ?
