There are some clear 'dont's' for mature politics and statecraft. Arrogance is to be avoided. Humility is always a preferred option. Vadra's statement on Smriti Irani denying her existence by asking a question "who" displays arrogance at its worst? 

Let all roads lead to Amethi. As campaigning for the last two phases for the 2014 elections reaches a climax all roads now must lead to Amethi.

Five years as Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha has been a great learning experience for me. Being in Opposition is an experience by itself. You have to be vigilant and well informed. A lot of informants come to you with information.

There is a streak of misguided aggression which most of us had in our younger years. Even when you lost a cricket match or an argument you would come back home with a satisfaction of having given a mouthful to the other side. As one matures you realize the virtues of understatement, wit and sarcasm. These are always a preferred option to being downright discourteous.

It is mentioned in several election speeches that even one vote can make a difference.  Every eligible voter has a right to vote.  He also has a duty to cast a vote.

Yesteday was Polling Day in Amritsar. Having spent past six weeks in Amritsar campaign in this heat, it will be time for me now to move to other states where elections are still being held. An integral and enjoyable part of the stay in Amritsar is obviously the food in this city. I have always regarded Amritsar as the Food Capital of India.
