P K questions intention of Modi government on 'one nation-one election'Patna, Sep 4 (UNI) Noted poll strategist Prashant Kishore on Monday questioned the intention of Narendra Modi government behind its move on ''one nation-one election'', saying it would prove to be beneficial for the country only if implemented without any ulterior motive.

If government had any implicit agenda over its move for one nation-one election, then it's result could be doubtful, he added. It was true that one nation-one election was in practice till twenty years after independence but later it was discontinued, he pointed out. People should vote for bright future of their children which could be possible only with quality education and good job opportunities, he suggested.

Only a few blessed ones have seen the agreements that were signed by Islamabad with ‘foreign’ investors. Contrarily, the President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan has been seen helpless in transferring his own staff.

While the report largely focused on the activities of Al-Qaeda and ISIS, it also made a claim that TTP might merge with Al-Qaeda. The differences of orientation, limitations of Afghan Taliban regime and organisational aims and objectives point towards trajectory of distinct identity rather than prospects for merger. The top four jihadist outfits — Al-Qaeda, Afghan Taliban, TTP and IS-Khorasan — all had contesting aims and objectives, falling under two distinct jihadist ideologies. Any such merger will cause an Al-Qaeda “affiliate” attacking a US ally and a neighbouring country. Hence, the prospects for TTP to continue its distinct course are greater than the prospects of it merging within Al-Qaeda.
