Omar Abdullah claimed that Mehbooba Mufti-led People's Democratic Party (PDP) has joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as its 'C team'. Abdullah's statement comes after BJP leader Mushtaq Bukhari notably urged members of the Pahari community to vote for Mehbooba Mufti in the ongoing Lok Sabha election.

All others are connected to the BJP in some way. Be it the 'A' or 'B' team that meets Tarun Chugh sahib or PDP. I am assuming that now Mehbooba Mufti will put pressure on the BJP to get Mushtaq Bukhari's statement changed. PDP has joined BJP as its 'C' team.»

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's promise of wealth redistribution has kicked up a huge controversy. While the idea itself has been controversial — right from the bloody revolutions of the past century that promised the poor the wealth amassed by the rich to contemporary debates in economics on how to address inequality and poverty — a comment on Rahul's plan by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has brought the issue to the headlines. PM Modi alleged on Sunday that «Congress wanted to confiscate people's wealth and redistribute it to Muslims». Yesterday, adding that opposition parties had done nothing for Muslims, he reiterated his allegations, saying that the Congress was «looking to survey earnings and wealth of people, including their vehicles, property, and houses to redistribute it in line with a communist ideology that INDIA wanted to implement in the country».

Trideep Bhattacharya, CIO, Equities,Edelweiss MF, says the market is chugging along, given that earnings are still intact and overall growth rate continues to be broad based, not just amongst largecaps but among mid and smallcaps also. That is keeping the mid and smallcap share prices reasonably buoyant in the near term. Bhattacharya further says: "Over the last three to four months, from underweight, we have gone to neutral IT services. Overall, we will expect great growth rates in the near term, but over the next two to three years, earnings are broadly bouncing around the bottom. We think that when next year global growth picks up after a bit of weakness, you would see this sector starting to do well." Let us start our discussion with telecom today because there is a big re-rating happening. People are now thinking that from almost going towards a two-player space, we are back to three-player space and probably BSNL, MTNL will be revived soon. So, it will be a nice, vibrant four-player space. Did you have telecom exposure in your portfolios and how are you looking at the way things are panning out there? Trideep Bhattacharya: I would say that, yes, over the last three months or so, we have increased our position in telecoms.
