'In
the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. But in the keen-eyed world
of cricket, a fellow with just one good eye-and-a-bit has to settle for
something less than the perfection he once sought. Lucky me, despite this, to have
been able to play the game all over the world in the company of giants.' Pataudi about himself.
I was taken straight to what was like an ashram with a temple. There in a room slightly spacious with carpets spread all over the floor in the middle sat Yogiji on an asana with his disciples, I presume , around and also some visitors. I was introduced to him and he called me straight to him and made to sit near him for many hours. He was talking in Gujarati, not Hindi, but easy for me to understand. His face, radiant, his smile so broad and never leaving him, his protruding teeth, slightly shriveled body, upper part of the body totally uncovered is what I vaguely recollect now, after four decades.
The exit polls showing disastrous performance by the BJP in the Delhi elections and the spectacular performance of AAP has shown to the parent all India body its disastrous mistake of not going into polls immediately after the results of the general election had given it an advantageous position.
It has shown to astrologers not to launch into predictions without the horoscope of the regional wing as I had mentioned earlier. That was the mistake I committed and I apologize for that. As I had said earlier I had said earlier.
“The horoscope of the BJP: Personally I am of the opinion that the horoscope of a national party should not be used for predictions about the results of the state elections. In the absence of the horoscope of the date of the formation of the Delhi branch of the BJP we may have a glance at it....The favourable period continues for the BJP in this period in this horoscope though I do not place much reliance on the national horoscope of a party for a state election.”
Belatedly now I have got another unreliable information that this was formed on 8 April at about 11/40 am. I will not discuss it or accept it as no one has assured me about its accuracy.
I will not wait for 10 February for actual results to be announced after actual vote counting as generally all exit polls cannot go wrong. AAP has won the elections outright is what must be said now.
The belated entry of Kiran Bedi and her nomination as the Chief Ministerial candidate may have proved another disaster though it will not be admitted openly. It will also affect the so called invincible election winning strategy of Amit Shah and ofcourse, to some extent Narendra Modi who had canvassed vigorously. In any case, Modi now seems to have lost his election winning charisma.
Kejriwal has beaten Narendra Modi is what is being said now. The repercussion of it going to be very tough for the BJP in the elections in some major states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh in coming years. It will also be debated now if the Modi wave is over or diminishing and is not an election winning strategy.
