Arvind Kejriwal, AAP intensify demand for polls in Delhi

New Delhi: With December coming to an end and no election dates still announced, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has intensified the demand on social media to conduct fresh polls in Delhi.

“There is some unconfirmed news going on that election dates could be postponed to April,” party spokesperson Atishi Marlena said.

AAP sources said the party is apprehensive that the poll dates may be pushed to April if the election results in Jammu and Kashmir and Jharkhand are not favourable to BJP. It is also expecting the election will be held in February this year, which mark one year of President’s rule in Delhi.

“By-polls were to be conducted in the last week of November, but the assembly itself was dissolved last month. More than a month has passed, elections dates have not been announced,” a party source said.

“We feel that the BJP may play tricks and get the election delayed under some pretext or the other. We want to initiate the debate to declare the poll dates at the earliest,” a party source said.

“Are Delhi elections being pushed to April? (Why is) BJP so scared?” Arvind Kejriwal had yesterday tweeted.

The AAP has been demanding fresh polls ever since it quit the government in February last year, following which President’s rule was imposed in the national capital.

The Erosion of Democracy: BJP's Stranglehold on Indian Politics

In recent times, India has witnessed a concerning trend of democratic institutions being manipulated and opposition voices being silenced under the leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The use of government agencies such as the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and Income Tax Department (IT) to target opposition leaders has raised serious questions about the health of democracy in the country. The blatant misuse of these agencies to harass and intimidate political opponents undermines the very foundation of democracy. By incarcerating opposition leaders and subjecting them to legal harassment, the BJP government is effectively crushing dissent and monopolizing power. Such tactics not only weaken the democratic fabric of the nation but also erode public trust in the fairness and impartiality of the legal system. Furthermore, the stranglehold of the BJP government extends to the media, with reports of censorship and suppression becoming incre

Unmasking the Dark Veil of Electoral Bonds: The Lingering Shadow of Black Money in Indian Politics

By S.B. Mazumder In the convoluted saga of political financing in India, electoral bonds emerged as a promising solution, yet they only served to veil the pervasive presence of black money within the corridors of power. Despite assertions by the government that these bonds would bring transparency to political funding, the recent Supreme Court ruling striking them down as unconstitutional shines a stark light on the enduring issue of cash-driven politics. Electoral bonds were envisioned as a tool to sanitize the flow of funds to political parties by allowing donors to contribute ostensibly anonymously. However, this anonymity proved to be a double-edged sword, as it shielded potential quid pro quos between donors and political recipients. While parties were privy to the identities of their benefactors, the public was left in the dark, rendering the entire system vulnerable to manipulation and corruption. The government's promise that electoral bonds would cleanse the system of unac
