The BJP-connect of the lately much-in-controversy Cambridge Analytica came to light in the 2012-14 period. Sources claim that this organisation had a major role in strongly shaping Modi’s election campaign for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. When Congress had to face a brutal defeat in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, and the party indulged in the analyses mode, it was then that Rahul suggested that why doesn’t the party seek help from the same organisation? And from here, Cambridge found its passage to Congress. Ever since the image of Congress soared on the social media. So did hike Rahul’s image on a continuous basis. Sources reveal that the sudden improvement in the image of Congress scared BJP to the extent that whatever followed from there could be considered a reaction to that very fear.

The Cambridge-BJP relation goes long back in time. According to sources, when the BJP’s high profile leader Rajiv Pratap Rudy contested the Lok Sabha election from Chhapra in 2004, he took the help of this very company. It is said that this company played a crucial role in the Chhapra election for Rudy. The company had conducted a comprehensive survey in Chhapra and statistically determined that which booth has the majority of which caste and class, what are their traditional views towards the party and out of these how many are floating voters. Based on this report, Rudy and BJP finalized their booth management strategies. On a different subject, though, Rajiv Pratap Rudy had to face defeat from Lalu in this election.

The passengers of a Delhi-Dehradun Indigo flight were left amazed when they saw VIPs Priyanka Gandhi and Robert Vadra on-board the plane, the very last minute, and quietly took the last seats. Later when an announcement was made, it was acknowledged that the pilot of this plane was an Italian and the cabin crew was from Poland. The Vadras were headed to meet their children in Dehradun.

Flames of hatred seem to be flaring as ‘Sushasan Babu’ (Nitish Kumar) is steadily losing the hold of his throne. His ‘power to reign’ dreams are proceeding towards a dead-end and his ministers, too, are emanating fire through their bitter words. Sources say that Nitish is now concerned over his slipping pride. He is unsure whether this BJP-companionship is an enduring one or not. If sources are to be believed, Nitish has made up his mind to back-out from the BJP alliance and is waiting for the right time to make the move.
Nitish has once again returned to the backward classes for his vote bank. In the meantime, his top-secret meeting with Union minister Ram Vilas Paswan seems like giving wings to his separation plan. First, the Vidhan Parishad membership to Paswan’s brother Pashupati Paras, and then his crowning as a minister in the JD-U government, Nitish’s decisions had a futuristic approach.
Nitish’s BJP-connection Sushil Modi is good for nothing when it comes to speaking up to the Modi-Shah duo. One of Nitish’s close-aides says, “We realised the value of Sushil Modi, in the BJP, the very day when a list of four names was sent across to Amit Shah for the Rajya Sabha in 2016. The first name on the list was that of Sushil Modi and the last of Gopal Narayan. Shah struck off the name of Sushil Modi and instead wrote Narayan’s name in place and brought him to the Rajya Sabha.”
The Nitish-BJP friendship is also being tested on the back of the upcoming 2019 General Elections. There was a time when BJP was JD-U’s junior partner. JD-U used to contest its candidates on 25 out of the 40 seats in the state and leave the remaining 15 for BJP. But gone are those days, and with the changing tide of politics, BJP is of the notion to spare mere 8-10 seats for Nitish, for which the latter is not agreeing. Instead, Nitish would rather prefer joining hands with Ram Vilas Paswan’s party.
On the other hand, BJP does not want to lose Nitish at any cost. So, all possible ways are being tested in the interest of Nitish.

Tejashwi Prasad Yadav is a fast learner when it comes to politics. He is making all the right moves, despite the absence of his father who is currently behind the bars. Filling up for his father, young Tejashwi has already started prepping for the upcoming General Elections of 2019 to give it a final shape along with the allies. Lalu’s party is in favour of sparing three Lok Sabha seats for the Left parties, of which the Begusarai seat may fall in CPI’s laps and JNU-rebel Kanhaiya Kumar may try his luck from here. Sources tell that BJP is planning on stepping back its MP Bhola Singh from the constituency, news that has made its way to Singh too who now plans on extending his support to Kanhaiya Kumar.
Apart from this, RJD is also planning on offering the Arrah and Siwan Lok Sabha seats to CPI (ML). On one hand, the party may spare 10 seats for Congress, and on the other, former chief minister Manjhi is demanding three seats – Gaya, Maharajganj and Vaishali – for his party. Sources tell that Tejaswi might agree for Gaya and Maharajganj seats.
The Yadav and Muslim votes of the state are seemingly in support of RJD. Thakur voters have also had enough with BJP which and indicate a return to RJD. The party is also trying to lure Brahmin votes by making room for its spokesperson Dr Manoj Jha this time in Rajya Sabha.
