By now, everyone knows that even if BJP gets 0 seats in state elections, they'll still form a government.

Shah saar will just buy an entire regional party with their regional leaders and the governor of the state will be like, "Kewl. Ye lo Gormint."

Thanks #ElectoralBonds!
Matlab I don't understand why BJP even bothers spending money on campaigning anymore. Let others spend money on that.

Smart thing is to spend money buying and selling people after results come. Cheaper and more effective, eh?

Add some CBI-ED raids for extra convincing powers.
Saying a few things in anticipation of Bhakts:

- Yes yes they got 100+ seats.
- Yes yes BJP is awesome.
- Yes yes Chanakyaniti and everything. - Congrats.
- Yes yes Congress has done it too.
- Yes yes Nehru sucks.

Been saying for a while that #ElectoralBonds is a special currency only for political parties. This proves it.

The BJP Government has been allowing purchase of bonds even outside the permitted window, right before elections.

Illegally.

@nit_set 🙌

@nit_set Putting it simply, the Government is now printing and selling bonds whenever it wants, that too for unlimited amounts.

Imagine one note of Rs 10 crore which is valid for a limited time. But since it happens frequently, you can keep buying selling these whenever PMO wants it.
@nit_set So in 2016, the Govt took away old currency from the citizens. Issued new currency after putting them through hell.

Then in 2017, they introduced ANOTHER special currency exclusively for politicians. This currency can be for the amount they want and get it whenever they want it.

Holymoly this is shady!

Not only did the Modi govt legalize foreign funding to political parties and make it anonymous, they also lied through their teeth to the EC!

This is legalized corruption. Plain and simple.

Here's the Hindi version of the report.

Read and spread!
Been screaming about this #ElectoralBonds biz since 2017. It's been two years and our lovely political parties have exploited this shady scheme to the fullest extent.

Time to wake up and smell the coffee.

Let this sink in.

Rs 6,128 crore worth of political donations went to political parties and YOU will never know who gave them.

YOU will also never know WHY they were given and what the people who gave those are getting in return.

Our politicians are now richer by Rs 6,128 cr.
In case you don't know what Electoral Bonds are and how these shady instruments work, do watch this.

To give you a comparative figure, the total grant received by the Delhi Government from the Central Government this year was Rs 1,112 crore.

Iran has political leverage, too. Since the May 12 national #election Iraq’s political elites have been unable to form a government in part because of enormous pressure from #Tehran to install politicians in their favor. Iran’s loyalists succeed and dominate the new government...
