People have given the mandate for the congress led U.P.A to rule and the congress party should respect the mandate they should not bend to please their allies whoever it might be.Every Tom, Dick and Harry from the family should not be given ministerial portfolios. The congress has to be stubborn in their stand .

coming from tamilnadu , azhagiri is nothing but a murderer and rapist , he has paid around 1500 for each and every vote cast under his name , if you can please visit madurai , that doom place his compltely filled with his stupid family album , any property more than 20 lakhs being sold has to be reported to him and that scum bag gets commision , and who the hell is raja and kanimozhi ???i sincerely wish that karuna and his extened family to stay out of central politics and let us live , still our childrens are begging in the streets.lot has to be done yet.... i wish manmohanji stay put in this matter

How one cay say that the matter of asking more no of berth in the UPA government is shame? After the polling, Mr.Rahul told that we will have post poll alliance with AIADMK (exit polls shown that the AIADMK will have more MP's). If congress is having such an opportunities, why not DMK wont bargain to get more berth?What's the wrong in it?

Cong. shuld dismiss W.Bengal Govt. Recall what Janata Party had done when it defeated congress Govt. DMK is worth nothing. Leave them with Lalu and Paswan

After two decades, India has voted in a manner that mandate to govern has emerged on the strength of pre-poll alliances. The country has given itself this opportunity after almost a generational time lapse and should not be squandered away. Politically it makes lot of sense to congress to rebuild itself and not to give in to regional parties which grew at its expense and brought in compromised governance.We would like congress to work more on physical infrastructure and competence building rather than relying on the subsidies. Congress should not just delude themselves to believe that 70K Cr farm waiver was the clincher. With a subsidy bill on fertilizers almost 1.5L Cr we still learn of farmer suicide on daily basis.Let Congress take the tough call to give a cabinet people voted for, can believe in and relate to. Let them deliver on the physical infrastructure, let them ensure that each citizen has a smart card through which the subsidies/PDS are directed at the lowest possible leve

The DMK fact in Indian politics proves that it is better to believe good opposition like BJP for the congress than to believe a good partner/friend like Karunanidhi in formation of the government and running the govt. In this situation the congress, especiaally Miss Sonia Gandhi should take right and firm stand in the interest of nation and common people.

UPA has won 27 seats because of Dongi Makkal Kazagan(DMK) and 28 seats because of Terrible Makkal Congress(TMC). If these two parties do not support UPA will fall. Best thing is give 2 DPM pots one to Mamata and one to Karuna's Pillae.

Soniaji please make TR Baalu the finance minister and Raja the defence minister so that they can supply more money to aiyya.

we are saved of one or two tainted heads in the cabinet. however, only if same attitude is adopted towards allies from the north. god bless the country.

At his age of 80 the CM of TN is shamelessly flying to Delhi to promote his son, daughter and his whole family for Ministership and the so called democratic DMK is supporting this. After feeling ashamed for Rajiv's assasination this is the next biggest embarassing matter for Tamilians and that too a criminal son being blatantly promoted by his CM father. I wish Manmohanji puts an end to this and accept only experienced and clean candidates.

The disutes frequently occur due to lack of patriotism and hunger for power. Best thing is to prepare chits with names of persons and their desire for certian portfolios and get chits lfted by third marty like innocent children of non-politicians to decide.B S GANESH, BANGALORE

What is the DMK trying to do?Is it going in for monarchy ?None of the cabinet probables have neither the experience nor the knowledge to handle such a big responsibility.Mr.Azhagiri has no experience and is the least qualified to handle such a big task.If the congress goes under the pressure then they would end up having the whole of the DMK household in their backyard.Even Mr.Karunanidhi considering his age and health should step down.Come on people !!!lets be practicle!!!how on earth is a 85 yr old person who can hardly distinguish his own hand and pen govern a state.Awesome schemes he introduced "FREE COLOUR TV ".Whats next a free computer ??a free Ipod ??What the state needs now is someone both experienced and youthful.Its really frustrating and irritating because there is no one right now who can fill up this power vaccum which has occured in Tamil Nadu.Hoping for the best atleast in the next election .Jai Hind !!!!!

Its a matter of shame that DMK is black mailing and trying to get more cabinet berths for Karunanidh's family members. Except Maran, none of the proposed candidates have any experience or shined in their earlier performance. Congress should keep them at their right place and should not surrender at all. All these parties - whether it is DMK, TMC or NCP, require support of Congress for their very survival in their own states - that is the situation now. Therefore, do not compromise too much than required.

Seeing the dismal state of tamil nadu. We, the tamil people need to elect the congress as an alternative to dmk, and admk. I'm happy that the dmk is not part of government. Personally except dayanidi and helen davison. Nobody is qualified.

It is now for congress to decide how many ministers and which portfolio should be given to non-congress party members. We thought this time congress has majority at central to nail down the discussion. I think congress should demand equal number of ministeral berth at the state to know the Karuna mind.

Its not a national interest but power for personal gains is the utmost in the minds of Indian Politicians. Thats why bickerings in the formation of centralministry.One month long elections inflicted huge damages for our country in its foreign policy. This shows the new Government may not lost its full term.The leader should take strong decisions keeping the national interest.

This is the biggest problem in our constitution. While they agree on many things before election and forming an alliance, they always disagree when allocating portfolio's. This makes Indian voters look like Idiots.How can Azhagiri, Karuna's son be a Cabinet minister? He is so immature. For that matter, I feel Karunanidhi himself is immature. Look at what he is seeking for "A seat for my son, a seat for my daughter and a seat for my grand nephew". How cheap it is? Is this the only qualified family in TN? Cheap politics... I am ashamed to proudly say that I am a Tamizhan. One can't protest as in the next elections they will distribute free DVD players to ppl with my tax money. I pity my people and I pity to learn that this is the case in most of the other states.

Now the elections are over. Billions of Rupees spent by the political parties to win the elections. From where this money came to the Political parties. What is the source of this money. This is all unaccounted money looted from Indians. Now everyone wants the Cabinet posts not to develop the Country but to loot. This is the so called Indian Democracy. The Democracy of Fools.Because the people who elect them are fools. Democracy of looters. Is there anyone in the Country to look into the source of money the Political parties spent during the Elections?

this is a strange logic,that mr.karunandhi is trying to accomodate all his relatives, sons daughters in the central minstry.they do not understand that this tims the congress high command will not succumb to blackmailing.congress does not need any help even from outside.

Our PM is not a weak PM as Advani says ! He is open minded which is why he allows MuKa and Momata to dictate terms and throw tantrums. And finally the lady will arbitrate and decide things. Jai Ho !

PM should not allow DMK to deman and control the portfolios. DMK's support from outside is what is expected now and that is all. Nothing to be given to DMK.

This is opportunism at its worst. Since the congress now has the numbers, they should dump these opportunistic parties who, if included, are only bound to hamper the smooth functioning of the govt sooner or later.

People of India voted for congress only for Dr. Manmohan Singh's integrity and honesty. Dr. Singh should not succumb to the pressure tactics being brought on my unscrupulous politicians like Karunanidhi whose only aim is to amass more wealth for his legitimate and illegitimate children. In fact, if Karunanidhi insists on supporting the UPA from outside, it will be all the better. The corruption will be that much less. The Congress party is right in rejecting the ministerial posts for T.R.Baalu and A.Raja both of whom are fund raisers for Karunanidhi family. The people of India demands honest and efficient central government.
