NEW DEHLI: Union Minister P Chidambaram has opted out of the Lok Sabha election with the party tonight nominating his son Karti from his constituency Sivaganga in Tamil Nadu while another Union minister Ghulam Nabi Azad was brought as a candidate from Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir.

Soon after the announcement, Karti said, "my father has contested nine elections and thought it is time to give way. He is definitely not retiring from politics." ...

>>> Of course, Chidambaram Sr. is not quitting politics. He soon may join the Rajya Sabha, after handing over his Lok Sabha seat to his son.  Moreover, if Congress somehow manages to form the next Govt. in the Center, there is a good chance that Chidambaram Sr. may be called by Sonia Gandhi to become the P.M. (since Rahul Gandhi does not seem very keen on taking that job).

He may be afraid he may lose the election. He won barely by 100 votes or so last time ...... on a recount.

I strongly believe that this woman will win the Sivaganga seat easily....

I think senior CONmen have concluded that they will lose in this election. So, they have decided to build their own little dynasties for the future. 

Pappu may still be hopeful that he will become the PM in 2014. Someone should tell him that his mother's magic has evaporated and CONmen are leaving the sinking ship.

At least, she will have a temple built for her in Telangana with Shankara Rao as a pujari. Pappu can go there and do a bhajan everyday.
