“ABN AMRO’s India chief Meera Sanyal is taking a sabbatical because she's joining the political fray, getting ready to contest from south Mumbai”

She has not put in her papers — she is only taking a sabbatical and will be back if she doesn’t win it. The company’s policy encourages bankers to fight elections but makes sure that the banker does not hold dual posts at the same time. ABN AMRO’s current GBM Head Madan Menon may take charge of Meera Sanyal’s post during her absence.

AIADMK didnt pull Congress

ADMK didnt call congress for any alliance. Amma did a big U turn

Few weeks back, Jayalalitha the AIADMK's Amma openly called Congress for her alliance.
But last week, the AIADMK leader, in a statement, said she had only cautioned the Congress not to get into the quicksand along with the DMK, which was facing the wrath of the people for its anti-people activities. Considering the long - time friendship between the AIADMK and the Congress and with good intention, she had advised the Congress to come out of the DMK-led alliance in Tamil Nadu, Jayalalithaa said, adding, ''I never invited the Congress to come back to the AIADMK alliance.''

Reason that can be : (Jayalalithaa Future plan)
As we know in the coming General Election 2009,  Congress and the BJP led NDA will have a tie in the centre, or none of them including the Third Front will not be able to come to power. And it is expected in TamilNadu, and ADMK alliance might get  20+ seats ie., 50% of 40 including pondy. If Jayalalitha is lucky - either PMK joins ADMK or DMDK(Vijayakanth) stays away from Congress/DMK then Jayalalitha's share in the 40 seats will increase to even 25 to 30.

In that case, she might use this to woo Congress as its life or death for them....

Azharuddin joins Congress

 

Spokesperson Veerappa Moily confirmed that former Indian cricket team captain, Azharudding is to join the Congress party. Moily said that he is joining the party unconditionally and it is not yet decided if he would contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha polls from Andhra Pradesh. Regarding the crickiter's troubles past(the life ban imposed by the BCCI), Moily said that there is no criminal record agains Azharuddin and whatever the matter is,its between the BCCI and him. He further justified Azhar's entry into congress by saying that Azhar served the Indian cricket team oustandingly for 9 years and that he has also filed a case against the ban imposed on him by BCCI. Trying to escape the situation on Sanjay Dutt's entry to samjawadi party, he said that he has no comments on that and Sanjay can join any party he wants to. According to earlier reports, Azhar is to meet congress chief Sonia Gandhi after which he might visit party headquarters and formally announce his entry to the party. Congress is likely to let Azhar play from his home ground Andhra. It is yet to see that how the former cricketer will fair in the new innings as a politician.

 Will Congress tie up with Jayalalitha (AIADMK) ??

Jayalalithaa is suggesting Congress (INC) to come out of the DMK alliance which indirectly means shaking hands with AIADMK.

In her statement Jayalalitha said :

“Take back your hand (off DMK),” Jayalalithaa extolled to the Congress, punning on the word ‘hand’, also the latter’s poll symbol. Emphasising that a huge anti-incumbency factor stared at the DMK, Jayalalithaa claimed that the people were waiting to “teach the DMK a fitting lesson” in the coming polls. Hence, if Congress wished to avoid that scenario, “it should at once sever ties with DMK,” she asserted.

Congress is still a side dish in TamilNadu. If PMK also join hands with AIADMK then Jayalalitha alliance might sweep the 40 seats. Or atleast 35+ including Pondy. The whole of SouthIndia is on fire for Congress. Hopefully DMK wont allow this to happen and people like P Chidambaram etc are just Anti-JJ Congressmen.
