Vamsi says: looks like the congress party has avoided the elections that had become quite likely owing to LEFTs threat to leave the government। SP has come to its rescue ... and congress again seems to have gained some confidence ... and is ready to go ahead with the deal ... surely, there are no permanent friends and enemies in politics ... the great indian political tamasha at its best !
LP says: a counter question: when does the full term end? Only PVN went to polls after 60 months in office। Am I right? ABV went in for early polls. Do we say Vajpayee sarkar was not full term? MMS will go in for early polls, in all probability, around the time a new president is ushered into oval office. Will we say MMS sarkaar did not last full term if this is how it turns out? The nuclear deal will go through. If UPA, with SP support, does not manage the numbers inside the house (majority of attending and voting NO) to defeat the no confidence motion that the left might table, and has to resign, then it will remain as caretaker sarkaar till early next year. CAn we say, if that is how it turns out, it is not full term? In my view, the political dynamincs has changed entirely since last elections in 2004. It is time for all alliances to be recast based on a re-assessment of geo-political and geo-economical realities as will as the emerging power centres in international relations. Giving six months for such a process, it makes sense to have elections by late 2008 and early 2009. The added benefit of early elections: a) the campaign vehicles will raise less dust in the rural areas. b) there will be enough to eat after the harvest and industrial bonuses. c) there will be enough suger, cane and alcohol to entice voters to the booths. d) school-kids can sleep in the day and study during night under parental watch. e) anyone can add to this list, which i snot exhaustive॥
Niceguy251 says:As it is elections are due within a year now। Presently I do not think any party except BJP wants to go for polls immediately. They all want to delay it as long as it can be. As LP says polls may be called few months early but not immediately.
Busybee says:By full term if u mean, elections bought on by the oppn toppling the govt in a no confidence vote and not by being announced by the Govt।, then I think it will last its full term.
Virtualscorpio says:Yes , it should, tho' not by the fairest means
