SUPER SCOOP
Politics party .com Learns from Apex Sources in the Intelligence Agencies that:
Congress President Sonia has decided to forge an Alliance with the Deve Gowda led Janata Dal (S) in Karnataka, to contain an upbeat BJP.
INTELLIGENCE WARNING
Central Intelligence Agencies and Independent Surveys done by the Sonia Strategists have alarmed the Congress President.
The Reports have indicated that if a Triangular Fight takes place in Karnataka then the Congress Party will win 2 Seats, JD (S) 2 Seats and the BJP would win 24 Seats.
The Sonia Strategists NOW, belatedly believe that an Alliance with the JD (S) would reduce the BJP Tally to just 14 MPs.
SONIA DELAYS DECISION
Sonia has postponed the finalisation of the List of the Congress Party Candidates for the 28 Lok Sabha Seats in Karnataka.
The Congress Party Screening Committee for Karnataka headed by the Defence Minister A.K.Antony today met and postponed the decision making on Candidates until 13 March to facilitate the negotiations with Deve Gowda.
SONIA-DEVE GOWDA TALKS FAILED
Deve Gowda had told Sonia through his Emissary son, that the Congress and JD (S) must contest 14 Seats each.
Sonia wanted to give the JD (S) just 5 Seats.
Thus the Alliance did not materialise.
Deve Gowda went ahead by creating a Third Force in Karnataka.
The JD (S)-Communists aligned with the AIADMK, TDP, TRS to forge a Regional Front.
CONGRESS SUCCUMBS
The Congress Party has now belatedly agreed to increase the quota of Seats that would be allotted to the JD (S).
Deve Gowda does not want the BJP Stronghold Seats in the North Karnataka and Coastal Regions.
Deve Gowda wants the winnable South Karnataka Seats wherein the BJP is weaker than the Congress-JD(S) Alliance.
The Congress Party will Now contest 18 Lok Sabha Seats, all of which are now BJP Stronghold Seats.
All the 5 Lok Sabha Seats in the Hyderabad-Karnataka Region, all the 6 in the Mumbai-Karnataka Region, 2 Seats in the Coastal Region, Shimoga, Davangere, Udupi-Chikmagalur, Kolar and One of the 4 Bangalore Seats.
The JD (S) will Contest 10 Lok Sabha Seats comprising the Vokkaliga dominated South Karnataka also known as the Old Mysore Region.
PROSPECTS
The Arithmetic of the addition of the Congress Party and the JD (S) Votes will exceed the BJP Votes in 14 Constituencies.
The Congress-JD (S) Alliance will win 14 Lok Sabha Seats.
The Congress Party will win 4 from its allotted quota of 18 Seats.
The JD (S) will win 10 out of its Allotted Qouta of 10 Seats.
The BJP will win 14 Lok Sabha Seats.
BALANCE SHEET
The Congress Party will not gain much from an Alliance with the JD (S).
However, the BJP Tally of 24 will drop by 10 to 14 MPs because of the Alliance.
The Congress Party would thus drop the BJP Tally by 10 MPs.
FINISHLINE
The Congress Party would realise belatedly after the Counting Day, that trusting Deve Gowda was not beneficial at all.
After the Elections, Deve Gowda will utilise the Tally of 10 MPs gifted to him by the Sonia Congress to breakaway from the Congress Party to bargain with either the BJP Led NDA or the Communists led Left Front.
“TRUST ME!” is a Karnataka wide Popular Joke about Deve Gowda.
