Bollywood veteran Vinod Khanna will contest the Gurdaspur Lok Sabha seat in Punjab, BJP announced as it released a list of nine more candidates tonight.

Khanna will take on Punjab Congress chief Pratap Singh Bajwa who had defeated him in the last election in 2009 by a narrow margin.

BJP has fielded Ram Swaroop Sharma for Mandi parliamentary seat in Himachal Pradesh where he will take on Congress's Pratibha Singh, the sitting MP and wife of Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh.

BJP leader Arun Jaitley today said a fractured mandate after the General Elections will be the worst thing to happen for the country as tough decisions would not be possible.

"The worst thing that could happen to India after the next election is to have a fractured mandate," Jaitley said here today while exuding confidence that the BJP with the support of NDA allies will be able to form the next government at the Centre.

"If you have a fractured mandate tough decisions are not possible. If you have a clear mandate, the government is strong enough and it can take tough decisions," he said. He noted that coalition government will be there, but such governments with a large nucleus will only be able to survive and not those with a small nucleus.

A Right to Information activist Vilas Baravkar was found hanging in his house at Chakan today, police said.

The police claimed a suicide note was found at his residence. The handwritten suicide note on a Rs 100 stamp paper has named around 50 bigwigs, including politicians, police officers and some government servants who are allegedly responsible for his suicide, police said.

"We are examining every possibility since Vilas Baravkar has unearthed many land scams and illegal constructions in Chakan. We will investigate all of them. We have still not registered any complaint against anyone named in the note," investigating officer Kishore Patil said.

NCP leader and deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar today termed all the five constituent parties that form "Mahayuti" in Maharashtra as "destructive ghosts".

"These five partners have formed alliance to contest polls not for any constructive but for the destructive purpose... They have nothing to do with the problems faced by common people," Ajit said while canvassing for NCP nominee Vijay Bhamle who filed his nomination for Parbhani seat today.

Mahayuti comprises the BJP, the Shiv Sena, the RPI-A led by Ramdas Athawale, the Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatna of Raju Shetty and the Rashtriya Samaj Paksha of Mahadev Jankar.

Union minister Manish Tewari will not contest Lok Sabha polls and his Ludhiana seat in Punjab has been given to Ravneet Singh Bittu, a grandson of former Punjab Chief Minister Beant Singh.        

 

This brings to an end the speculation over Tewari's candidature, who was reporting sick and is understood to have expressed his unwillingness to contest from Ludhiana on this ground.        

 

There was speculation that Tewari wanted to shift to Chandigarh seat, however, former Union minister Pawan Kumar Bansal was re-nominated.        

 

Bittu, the sitting MP from Anandpur Sahib was not keen on contesting from his seat from where the party fielded AICC general secretary Ambika Soni.         Jalandhar MP Mohinder Singh Kaypee has been fielded from Hoshiarpur while Santokh Singh Choudhary has been fielded from Jalandhar.        

 

With this, Tewari joins the league of a number of senior party leaders who are not in fray this time. P Chidambaram, A K Antony, G K Vasan and Jayanti Natarajan are some of them.  

Congress will announce a new candidate from Vadodara against Narendra Modi after Narendra Rawat, who was elected in the primaries today, withdrew his name to enable party to put up a strong contender against BJP's PM nominee.        

 

"Narendra Rawat has retired from the contest following BJP's announcement to field Modi from Vadodara. He has requested me to convey to the party command regarding the decision," AICC general secretary in-charge for Gujarat Gurudas Kamat told PTI.        

 

The announcement came ahead of the party's press briefing to release the sixth list of candidates.  

Arvind Kejriwal announces his candidature from Varanasi saying he challenges Modi to come and debate with him.

Kerjiwal asks the crowds: "Kya mujhe Narendra Modi se chunav ladhna chahiye?
The crowd roars in approval.
Kejriwal says he has no money to fight the elections and asks the people to contribute and says, "Main Narendra Modiji ko chunauti dene ko tyaar hoon."

A garlanded Kejriwal then challenges Modi to a debate.

Kejriwal on FDI: "Farmers are dying in Gujarat. If Narendra Modi comes to power, more farmers will commit suicide. Both the BJP and the Congress want FDI, so what's the difference between them? At least 60,000 small and middle-scale industries have shut down. If you vote for Modi, the weavers, and small scale industries in this city will die out. Local traders will lose their business," warns Kejriwal, equating both the Congress and the BJP as the evil twins who want to kill small traders. 

"Ambani and Adani will come to power. Think before you vote," says Kejriwal.

Kejriwal says that the AAP had requested the Election Commission to defer the gas price hike and it has been done. 

Addressing the rally at Varanasi, Kejriwal, who is wearing the trademark AAP cap and a white shirt splattered with black ink, says, "I have no desire to become an MP. If my main aim was to become an MP, I would choose a safe seat like so many others.  I only want to stop people who have been looting the country. Who doesn't like the seat of the CM?

"But I had no alternative but to quit since the promise on which I came to power -- the Jan Lokpal Bill -- was not allowed to be passed. The BJP has been calling me 'bhagoara', an absconder, but I have not fled the scene."

He then borrows from the Ramayana to illustrate how leaving the battlefield is sometimes for the greater good.

The BJP and the Congress have never waved black flags or attacked each other. It's obvious they are together in looting the people. They have one common enemy, AAP," says Kejriwal.

The Congress party will release its manifesto ahead of the Lok Sabha polls tomorrow. Early reports indicate that the party will seek a reservation or a quota for SC/ST candidates in the private sector.

The Congress will also seek a reservation for women in politics. There will be a focus on the right to health and employment, and the  youth and middle class. The poll document is likely to unveil the party's goal to create 100 million new jobs for the youth by 2020.

The BJP and the AAP are yet to release their manifesto.

Even if searchers are able to miraculously pluck Malaysia Airlines flight 370's "black box" from the depths of the vast Indian Ocean, experts say it may not solve one of aviation's greatest mysteries.

Planes, ships and state-of-the-art tracking equipment are hunting for any trace of the passenger jet, which Malaysia said crashed in the forbidding waters after veering far from its intended course.

They face a huge challenge locating the Boeing 777's "black box", which holds vital clues to determining what caused the plane to vanish after it took off from Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing on March 8.-- AFP

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav today regretted "missing" the opportunity of contesting the Lok Sabha polls. "Kab Lok Sabha ja payengey pata nahi. Ye mauka to chook gaya (I don't know when I will reach Lok Sabha. I have missed the opportunity this time)," Yadav said.

He was talking to media at a function where BSP MP Surendra Nagar joined the ruling Samajwadi Party along with his supporters. Taking potshots at the BJP, Yadav said its graph was coming down very fast as the polling dates were coming near.

"They started with Gujarat development model but they started following communal agenda," he said.

Listen in to the BJP's campaign anthem.

Contradicting his party colleague Sushma Swaraj, BJP president Rajnath Singh today suggested that Jaswant Singh was denied ticket from Barmer after the Central Election Committee discussed the issue and that the step was taken due to certain "political compulsions".

Rajnath Singh said Jaswant Singh could not be nominated despite "everyone" wanting and all senior party leaders, including himself, were also "pained" by this decision.

He said "extraordinary decisions are taken in extraordinary situations" but refused to elaborate.

"Even while desiring from the depth of our hearts, it was not possible for us to give ticket to Jaswant Singhji from Barmer," Rajnath Singh said.

He acknowledged that Jaswant Singh had told him about his desire to contest from Barmer and that he had told him that he will discuss the issue with the Rajasthan unit of BJP.

"I talked to everyone. Everyone respects him. But there were certain political compulsions because of which the ticket could not be given to him," Rajnath Singh said.

The BJP's campaign anthem has been composed by Aadesh Srivastava.

Alright, after an egg attack, there's been an ink attack on Arvind Kejriwal in Varanasi. Police resorted to a lathi charge to disperse unruly crowds during the road show. Kejriwal is yet to speak at the rally where he will ask the people of Varanasi if he should contest against Narendra Modi in the city.  
So, remember, Kejriwal has not declared himself a candidate from Varanasi. People's verdict is awaited.

AAP leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan have also had ink thrown at them earlier.  

As most Indian firms are struggling, newspaper, television and radio companies are expected to flourish this year as the world's largest democracy spends a record amount on national elections. In the Lok Sabha polls which will run from April through May, political parties are likely to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to promote their candidates and causes to India's more than 800 million eligible voters.

Hapur is a part of the Meerut constituency from where Nagma is contesting next month's national election.

The candidate had reportedly gone there to inaugurate a party office and visit a gurdwara.Though the visuals have been seen on various channels and websites, neither Nagma, nor the Congress have acknowledged them. Nagma has denied the incident.

Yesterday actress Nanda passes away. She has 75.

Blessed with a face innocent of any malice or calculation, Nanda is remembered even today, as much for being Baby Nanda or the chhoti bahen of her earlier films as for her successful career as the soft-spoken heroine of some 40 films thereafter.

She played sister to stars like Raaj Kumar (Dulhan) or Dev Anand (Kaala Bazaar) and doing small roles in big films like Dhool Ka Phool. Nanda's ability to arouse the audience's protective instincts was pronounced even then --- most noticeably in two weepies: Bhabhi (1957) and Chhoti Bahen (1959). Read Dinesh Raheja's 2002 tribute to her on rediff.com.

In Varanasi, people say that on poll day, it is going to be a Modi victory, because Kejriwal is perceived to be the man who ran away from Delhi.

Meanwhile, eggs are  being thrown at Kejriwal's vehicle in Varanasi. Remember, Narendra Modi's last rally in Varanasi -- called the Vijay Shankhnaad rally -- was held in December, when he visited the Kashi Vishwanath temple and conducted a puja. 

Prices of eggs may go up since it's become a favourite protest tool. Remember, eggs were thrown at BJP candidate Kirron Kher during her visit to Chandigarh a few days ago.

It is that time in Indian politics again when all that matters is a ticket from the party to fight elections. Denied their party's nominations, old faithfuls and even leaders easily metamorphose into all kinds of rebels.

But Jaswant Singh's rebellion against the Bharatiya Janata Party on being denied a party ticket has a slightly different dimension. He has been one of the seniormost leaders of the party and has held important positions in the BJP-led governments at the Centre. Read more

Arvind Kejriwal will also interact with retired academics and professors at the Banaras Hindu University. and while he has maintained he will ask Varanasi voter whether he should battle Modi in the city, the decision has already been taken. Just as he did in Delhi, when he took on then CM Sheila Dikshit, his decision to take on Modi is more than just symbolic.

Kejriwal will also visit the Kal Bhairav and Kashi Vishwanath temples in Varanasi. Kejriwal, a self-proclaimed atheist till a few years back, has said time and again that he became a believer once again because there was no other way a two-year-old party could have come to power in Delhi without divine power.

Election news: The fight for the Ajmer Lok Sabha seat has taken on an interesting prospect after the ruling BJP in Rajasthan decided to field a state minister and local Jat leader to challenge Union Minister and sitting MP, Congress's Sachin Pilot.

Pilot is counting on development work and projects started under his initiative over the last five years to see him through, but Rajasthan Water Resources minister Sanwarlal Jat is confident of success as all the eight Assembly segments in the Ajmer Parliamentary constituency are now in BJP's kitty.

But Pilot is unfazed despite Congress's comprehensive defeat at the hands of BJP in the recent Assembly elections in the state.

"I am ready to take on and will defeat the BJP candidate this time also. In the last elections, I defeated sitting MP Kiran Maheshwari by a margin of 76,000 votes... This time, I am confident of a better performance," Pilot said.

A Supreme Court panel probing the IPL match-fixing scandal has said his son-in-law was guilty of illegal betting on games.

After an extensive investigation, the three-member panel also said allegations of match-fixing against Gurunath Meiyappan during the Indian IPL required further investigation.

"Roots of corruption and malpractices have crept in deep into the game of cricket, more particularly the IPL, and are seeping into the game at an alarming rate," the panel had said in its 170-page report, last month.

The Supreme Court has said that in its view BCCI president N Srinivasan must step down for a free and fair probe in the IPL spot fixing scandal. Calling the situation 'nauseating' the SC asks, "Why is Srinivasan sticking to his chair. If you don't step down, then we will pass the order.

"The probe panel report in sealed envelope contains very very serious allegations and unless BCCI President steps down, no fair probe can be conducted. We can't divulge details of the report in an open court, the court says, allowing the BCCI counsel to go through a certain portion of the report.

The SC has adjourned the case to March 27.

Rusi Dinshaw, the only Parsi to have ever been selected in a Pakistan Test squad, has passed away quietly and his death in tragic circumstances has brought into sharp focus the failure of the PCB to look after its former players.

There is a fear abroad. It is the fear of authoritarianism. Driving that fear is the prospect of Narendra Modi as prime minister.

Nobody, not even his claque of applauders, quite believes that he is patient with dissent or dissenters. Impatience, the alarmists argue, could lead to imprisonment. Fascist is the preferred epithet for Modi among his detractors and their numbers are as large as his admirers.

This argument blurs the distinction between authoritarian or totalitarian rule and fascism. Read

Time is running out to find the crucial keys that could solve the mystery of how and why Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 went down. After the excruciating 17-day wait for confirmation that the Boeing 777 crashed into the southern Indian Ocean, searchers are racing to locate the so-called black boxes before a battery-powered ping they emit fades away.

Lalitha Kumaramangalam knows what it means to lose a close relative in an air crash. But for the Tamil Nadu BJP leader and her family, the loss they were asked to accept this evening is harder to take than the death of her father four decades ago.

The Kumaramangalams are among 200-odd families scattered across the globe whose lives changed forever today when they received a text message. "Malaysia Airlines deeply regrets that we have to assume beyond any reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and that none of those on board survived,' the text message read. Full story here

A British satellite company has solved one crucial aspect of the mystery surrounding the Malaysia Airlines flight that disappeared on March 8, using a complex mathematical process to determine that it ended its journey in the middle of the southern Indian Ocean.

Guided by a principle of physics called the Doppler effect, the company, Inmarsat, analyzed tiny shifts in the frequency of the plane's signals to infer the plane's flight path and likely final location. The method had never before been used to investigate an air disaster, officials said. Read more
