After Jaya, BJP checks President's mood
The raging debate on the modalities of voting the ruling alliance out came to a boil yesterday with Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee seeking to probe the President's views on whether a confidence vote is obligatory if Jayalalitha withdraws support.

Parting inevitable, says Jayalalitha
AIADMK chief J Jayalalitha arrived in the Capital yesterday to deliver what could be the deathblow to the one-year-old Vajpayee government.

Oppn for vote on defence debate
Even as the Speaker GMC Balayogi ruled that the stormy ``defence related matters'' be discussed on April 15 under rule 193 -- motions under which do not require voting -- the Opposition parties have indicated their reluctance to accept the decision under the changed circumstances.
